When a user inputs a control program to a system for remotely controlling a device, it is difficult for the user to input an execution environment parameter required for executing the program if the user is not familiar with the program. A device control system (1) includes a device (21) and a management apparatus (10) for remotely controlling the device. The management apparatus (10) accepts a program for controlling the device (21), executes the accepted program in a first execution mode which is one of a plurality of execution modes, and determines, based on an execution result, an execution mode to be registered in a storage unit (12) of the management apparatus (10).
