In the present invention, upon an analysis initiation instruction, regardless of the necessity of some type of operation modification at the time of analysis, an overall control unit (21) of a system control unit (2) notifies other units (3-6) of analysis initiation and changes the color of the light emitted by a status indication LED (25) to blue, which is the common color for the units. In a liquid feeding unit (3) having received the analysis initiation notification, a local control unit (34) changes the device status to "RUN" and changes the color of the light emitted by a status indication LED (35) to blue. The same is true for the other units (4-6). After analysis is complete, the overall control unit (21) notifies each unit (3-6) of analysis completion and changes the color of the light emitted by status indication LED (25) to green. The units (3-6) also change the light emitted by status indication LEDs (35-65) to green. As a result, a user can intuitively understand that analysis is being carried out or that analysis is complete by looking at the color of the light emitted by status indication LEDs (25-65). |
