Abstract

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To realize cost reduction by cutting man-hours for attachment and minimizing restrictions, such as a attaching place. SOLUTION: A magnet 3 is mounted on an AS-i slave 2, which works as an interface with various actuators and a sensor controlled by a master in an open network, and thereby the slave can be mounted on a device 1 by means of the magnet 3, thus realizing a system construction having fewer fitting man- hours. Since magnet is used, the slave can be fixed to a device if it is metallic, and therefore layout of higher flexibility is made possible.
