Abstract

Conventionally, there are cases in which it is difficult for an operator to identify a motor drive device to which a motor is connected.　An industrial machine system 10 comprises a control device 12 and motor drive devices 14 that drive motors. The control device 12 includes: an input reception unit that receives an input for selecting a motor 16; and an information transmission unit that transmits identification information, for identifying the motor drive device 14 to which the motor 16 that is selected by the input is connected, to the motor drive device 14. The motor drive device 14 has a notification signal generation unit that generates a notification signal for notifying that the selected motor 16 is connected, on the basis of the identification information that was acquired from the information transmission unit.
