Device setting apparatus, recording medium recording device setting program, information transfer system, and information transfer method

A non-transitory computer-readable storage medium storing a device setting program, which when executed by a computer, causes the computer to generate an information code using at least one of a first information acquired from a field device by communicating with the field device, a second information indicating a work history for the field device, a third information indicating a reference destination for support information supporting a work of field device, and a fourth information required to enable a program to acquire information from the field device and to set information with respect to the field device.

An information transfer system comprising:

• a device setting apparatus comprising a generator configured to generate an information code using at least one of a first information acquired from a field device by communicating with the field device, a second information indicating a work history for the field device, a third information indicating a reference destination for support information supporting a work of field device, and a fourth information required to enable a program to acquire information from the field device and to set information with respect to the field device;
• and
• a portable terminal device comprising an input device configured to receive the information code output from the device setting apparatus, the portable terminal device being configured to transmit to instructed destination at least one of the first and second information included in the information code input into the input unit.

A method for transferring information, comprising

• generating an information code using at least one of a first information acquired from a field device, a second information indicating a work history for the field device, a third information indicating a reference destination for support information supporting a work of field device, and a fourth information required to enable a program to acquire and set maintenance information of the field device with respect to the field device.
