PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To improve convenience in a connecting operation by a user using a user interface screen.SOLUTION: The user interface screen is displayed for operating a connection by designating any arbitrary source apparatus and destination apparatus from among a predetermined number of source apparatuses and a predetermined number of destination apparatuses. On the basis of an operation on the user interface screen, a connection of the source apparatus and the destination apparatus is controlled. On the user interface screen, a plurality of source apparatuses are disposed in one direction of a matrix, and a plurality of destination apparatuses are disposed in the other direction. Intersections of predetermined numbers of corresponding apparatuses in a source apparatus group and a destination apparatus group registered beforehand are divided into groups. When there is an operation for selecting intersections divided into groups on the user interface screen, control is performed in such a manner that the predetermined numbers of apparatuses are simultaneously connected. |
