Motor control system, motor control apparatus, and method for controlling motor

A motor control apparatus for driving a motor, comprising:

• a first communication port connected, via a first communication path, to an upper-level control apparatus;
• a second communication port connected, via a second communication path, to an interface circuit that is connected to or included in at least one detector configured to detect information for controlling the motor, the interface circuit including communication controller processing circuitry;
• and
• motor control processing circuitry configured to obtain the information detected by the at least one detector and exchanged between the upper-level control apparatus and the interface circuit, and control the motor based on the obtained information,
• wherein the at least one detector includes a plurality of detectors and the motor control processing circuitry is further configured to set as a parameter, a ratio among pieces of the information detected by the plurality of detectors, add together the pieces of the information according to the ratio, and control the motor based on the pieces of the information added together.
