1. An analysis system that analyzes a sample by combining functions of a plurality of units and a control device, each of the plurality of units being configured to execute operation according to an analysis condition, the control device being configured to remotely operate the plurality of units, the analysis condition including a value of a parameter set for each of the plurality of units, the analysis system comprising:
the control device including a computer processor configured to receive the value of parameter for each of the plurality of units and output the corresponding analysis condition to each of the plurality of units;
each of at least one of the plurality of units including a computer processor configured to:
receive the analysis condition output from the control device;
change the value of a parameter by an operation circuitry operable by a user, the operation circuitry being provided in a unit body;
apply the value of parameter before the analysis of the sample by executing the function of each of the at least one of the plurality of units;
wherein the computer processor of the control device is further configured to:
determine whether preparation for starting the analysis is completed for each of the plurality of units by comparing a state of the unit to the value of parameter included in the analysis condition applied to the unit; and
output a notification indicating whether preparation for starting the analysis is completed for each of the plurality of units.
