A programmable display device includes a storage unit that stores therein profile data, in which information related to protocols for respective control devices is profiled; a communication unit that transmits and receives communication line data between the control devices; a communication-data analysis unit that generates, by synthesizing the communication line data and the profile data, synthesized information in which attribute signifying information that signifies attributes of respective pieces of data included in the communication line data, value signifying information that signifies values in the communication line data, and values in the communication line data are associated with each other; and a display unit that displays the synthesized information. The profile data is information defined as a data string of a format determined by protocols that are different for each of the control devices, the profile data not being software for performing data exchange. |
