A data collection and transfer apparatus includes: a memory; a buffer having large capacity and low data storage speed; a collecting unit collecting data and storing it in the memory; a transferring unit transferring data stored in the memory to a server; a monitoring unit monitoring a network; and a setting unit retaining storages. When fault is not detected, the collecting unit collects data specified in collection-data-setting storage with period specified in collection-period-setting storage and stores it in the memory and the transferring unit transfers data stored in the memory to the server with period specified in transfer-period-setting storage, and when fault is detected, the collecting unit collects data specified in buffer-data-setting storage with period specified in buffer-period-setting storage and stores it in the memory and data stored in the memory is stored in the buffer with period specified in the buffer-period-setting storage. |
