現されていない。2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, there is an example in which meter information is automatically metered through a public line by gas meter metering, etc., but there is no online usage mode of various vending machines scattered in stores or buildings, and automatic vending The only information collected on-site was collected using a collection device. In addition, regarding failure, it is only displayed on the vending machine, and no reporting means has been realized.

可情報を把握・記憶することができるようになってきて
いる。しかし、それらの情報を遠隔地に迅速に伝える手
段がなく、遠隔地からの情報収集が困難であった。In recent years, vending machines have become intelligent, and it has become possible to grasp and store product sales information or non-sale information such as breakdowns and out-of-changes by a microcomputer or the like. There is. However, it was difficult to collect information from remote areas because there was no means to quickly transmit such information to remote areas.
