Claim:
1. A monitoring control device comprising: a memory; and a processor coupled to the memory, wherein the processor executes a process comprising: detecting mounting of a module into a mounting part in a communication card equipped with multiple mounting parts into which modules are removably mounted; collecting, when mounting of a module has been detected, an environmental temperature, measured by a sensor of the monitoring control device, around a mounting part into which the module has been mounted, a power consumption and specified temperature of the module, memorized in the memory, and thermal resistance information of the mounting part mounted with the module; and estimating an environmental temperature after activation of the module on the basis of the collected environmental temperature, power consumption, specified temperature, and thermal resistance information before the module of which the mounting has been detected is activated.
