<p>The present invention consists in disposing a first transmission unit (TRU,) in a control panel which is installed in a central control room, and a second transmission unit (TRU2) in a control device which is installed near an equipment to-be-controlled of a plant. The first transmission unit and the second transmission unit are connected by a cable (MC). Each of the first transmission unit (TRU1) and the second transmission unit (TRU2) comprises a transmitter (5A; 5B), a receiver (6A; 6B), a serializer (3A; 3B), a deserializer (4A; 4B), change-over means (W) and change-over control means (D, F). The serializer (3A; 3B), which produces a serial information signal wherein a plurality of received information signals are arrayed in series, is connected to the transmitter (5A; 5B). The deserializer (4A, 4B) separates a serial information signal delivered from the receiver (6A; 6B), into a plurality of information signals. The plurality of change-over means (W) connect a plurality of signal transmission cables (Ca1-Can) respectively connected thereto, to the serializer or the deserializer. The plurality of change-over control means (D, F) control connectional statuses of the corresponding change-over means (W) on the basis of the respective information signals separated and delivered by the deserializer (4A. 4B).</p> |
