A first control device connected to a network in which data is updated at every predetermined cycle transmits, at every predetermined cycle, first data used for controlling a manufacturing device or a production facility, using a first communication band among communication bands possessed by the network. A second control device connected to the network and time-synchronized with the first control device transmits second data used for setting and managing the manufacturing device or the production facility, using a second communication band other than the first communication band among the communication bands possessed by the network.
