The monitoring circuit 5 has a function of detecting a change in a state signal, which is normally in normal operation or normal stop, to another state, and inputting the detection signal to the transmitting circuit 6. have. Further, the display circuit 7 has a function of displaying the current status of the equipment 2a to 2n according to a command from the monitoring circuit 5. Further, based on the detection signal from the monitoring circuit 5, the transmitting circuit 6 bit-encodes a code indicating the equipment whose state has changed and the state of the equipment, and transmits the encoded data to the central monitoring device 9 via the private line 8. It has the function to send to. Then, the central monitoring device 9 displays the equipment 2a to 2n, 3a on the display device 10 based on the data transmitted from the relay terminal devices 4a to 4b.
