the sub-system includes
a sub-system controller configured to create status data formatted to include a plurality of regions including an event region containing pieces of event information based on a signal output from the instrument and periodically transmit the status data to the monitoring device, the pieces of event information informing the monitoring device of a change in state of the instruments; and
a first memory configured to store a first event parameter file which defines a data structure of the event region of the status data, and

when the first event parameter file is changed, and the sub-system controller creates the status data, the sub-system controller reconstructs the data structure of the event region based on the changed first event parameter file and resets the pieces of event information in accordance with the reconstructed data structure.
