1. A relay system comprising:
- a relay device connected between a communications network and an external device, the relay device being configured to divide data received from the external device into a plurality of data fragments each containing divided data, set identification data into messages according to a communications rule, and send a sequence of the messages, the sequence of the messages including normal messages and dummy messages, the normal messages containing the respective divided data, the communications rule defining identification data to determine the normal messages in the sequence of messages, the relay device being configured to set a plurality of different identification data to the respective messages in the sequence, the identification data in the messages being used for arbitration of messages in the communications network;
a communications device connected to the communications network, the communications device being configured to receive the sequence of messages, determine whether or not each of the received messages is one of the dummy messages on the basis of the identification data of the received message in the sequence, abandon the determined dummy messages and acquire the normal messages, thereby reconstituting the data from the external device; and
wherein the relay device is configured to send the communications rule to determine the normal messages in the sequence of messages before the relay device sending the sequence of messages.

Abstract
A delay system which has a communications device connected to a communications network and a relay device which is connected between the communications network ad an external device. The relay device is configured to divide data received from the external device into a plurality of data fragments each containing divided data, and send a sequence of messages, the messages corresponding to the respective divided data and dummy messages being included in the sequence of messages according to a communications rule. The communications device is configured to reconstitute the data from the external device on the basis of the message group from the relay device according to the communications rule.
