Abstract:
A control board includes a main-board and a plurality of sub-boards which control loads. The sub-boards each include a providing unit which provides a board type ID, a read unit which reads an installation location ID, and a transmission unit which transmits the board type ID and the installation location ID to the main-board. The main-board includes a communication control unit, a configuration information acquisition unit which acquires configuration information expressed by a combination of the board type ID and the installation location ID, an analysis unit which analyzes the configuration information, and a control unit which controls the sub-unit on the basis of information analyzed by the analysis unit.
