<p>This slave station is provided with token cyclic destination information storage means, control frame response means, token frame processing means, data frame communication processing means, and new node connection information generation means. For the new node connection information generation means, if a new connected node is physically connected to the station via a communication cable during a period in which a token frame is being rotated around within a network in accordance with a first token cyclic order so as to perform periodic communication, upon receipt of a new connection notification frame from the new connected node, the new connection notification frame is updated so as to include the connection relationship between the station and the new connected node, and the new connection notification frame is stored until the station acquires a transmission right so that upon acquisition of the transmission right, the stored new connection notification frame is transmitted.</p> |
