Description

  The present invention relates to a security device and a program for realizing them.

  Conventionally, as a system using this type of security device, as shown in Patent Document 1, a terminal device such as an opening sensor that operates by opening / closing of a door or window is arranged in an intrusion route such as a door or window of a building, The present invention relates to an intruder monitoring system in which when an intrusion from the outside occurs, the operation of the sensor is detected and a warning signal is transmitted from a security device (referred to as a central processing unit in Patent Document 1) that is determined to have an intruder. Technology is disclosed.

In addition, as shown in Patent Document 2, in a general home security device (called a security device in Patent Document 2), when the house is in the house after locking and when the house person goes out It is necessary to distinguish the security status of the security device in the `` home security mode '' to detect intruders and abnormal situations when people are in the house, such as at bedtime, Define several warning modes, such as “outing warning mode” to detect intruders and abnormal situations when no one is inside, and process the alarm signal of each sensor group according to the warning mode specified by the user By changing, we have realized a highly convenient security device.
JP-A-6-301868 JP 2003-298756 A

  However, in the conventional configuration, when the mode is changed to the alert mode, there is no mention of a case where communication is not possible because the battery of the sensor to be communicated has run out or the sensor itself has failed. If the sensor notifies the security device when an abnormal condition such as a battery voltage drop or failure occurs, but the notification is not properly detected by the security device due to the effects of noise or problems in the radio wave propagation environment In this case, when a transition is made to the alert mode as described above, an abnormality of the terminal device is detected for the first time by an event such as no response from the communication target sensor to the message transmitted from the terminal.

  However, it takes time to communicate with each sensor when going out. Therefore, consider preliminarily holding the state of each sensor inside. If the state of the sensor held inside the security device when entering the security mode matches the status in the security mode (for example, all windows are closed), it is recognized as the actual status. (All windows are actually closed) and go into alert mode.

  For this reason, when a situation in which the above-described abnormality notification of the terminal device is not normally detected by the security device occurs, the state held in the security device is different from the current state of the terminal device (actually the window is The notification cannot be sent to the security device due to a sensor error even though it is open, and the security device recognizes that all windows are "closed" because the internal state has not changed. However, there is a problem that an intrusion route may be overlooked although it is called a warning mode.

  In addition, if the terminal device reports an emergency situation of a householder, the terminal device was damaged when the emergency occurred, or the battery of the terminal device was exhausted. There was also a problem that it was impossible to communicate and a situation that would fall into a dangerous state occurred.

  In order to solve the above-described conventional problems, a security device according to the present invention includes, in a security device including a communication unit that communicates with a terminal device, a time measuring unit that measures a predetermined time, and a predetermined time measured by the time measuring unit. Terminal status acquisition means for acquiring and storing the status of the terminal device when it is performed, security mode setting storage means for storing setting information related to the security mode, and input means for providing a trigger for shifting to the security mode from the outside When the external input is performed by the input unit, the information obtained by the terminal state acquisition unit and the information stored in the security mode setting storage unit are compared, and the result is normal. If it is, the result of comparison between the state determination means for shifting to the input security mode and the state determination means is abnormal. Or if, in the terminal information acquisition unit, when a state of the terminal device can not be acquired normally those having a notification means for notifying to that effect.

  As described above, the security device and the program according to the present invention include a timekeeping unit, a terminal state acquisition unit, a security mode setting storage unit, an input unit, a state, in a security device including a communication unit that communicates with a terminal device. By providing the determining means and the notifying means, the security device makes an inquiry to the terminal device at a predetermined time, so that the communication state of the terminal device can always be monitored, and the abnormal state of the terminal device can be monitored at an early point (actual In addition, it is possible to detect at a time before the emergency scene where the function of the terminal device is required), and the status of the terminal device is monitored by one communication, thus reducing communication traffic. However, the state of the terminal device and the state of the terminal device held internally by this security device are matched with high probability, and the security mode is entered. Precisely the migration process, and to enable quickly performed it.

  Further, the security device of the present invention includes a communication unit that communicates with the terminal device, a time measuring unit that measures a predetermined time, and a battery voltage state of the terminal device when the predetermined time is measured by the time measuring unit Terminal status acquisition means for acquiring the battery voltage status of the terminal device when the terminal status acquisition means could not acquire the battery voltage status of the terminal device, or the battery voltage of the terminal device acquired by the terminal status acquisition means is equal to or less than a predetermined value When it is determined that the terminal device has been determined, it is provided with a display means for displaying the fact, so that the communication state of the terminal device is always monitored by one communication and the battery voltage state of the terminal device is always monitored. Therefore, while reducing communication traffic, it is possible to detect a communication error due to a decrease in the battery voltage of the terminal device at an early stage, and a dangerous state due to a communication error can be detected. It is possible to prevent the terminal device from being used, and it is also possible to detect the frequency of use and the degree of wear of the terminal device from the obtained battery voltage state. Maintenance can be promoted. Therefore, it is possible to provide a stable security service for a long period.

  1st invention is the security device provided with the communication means which communicates with a terminal device, and acquires the state of the said terminal device when the predetermined | prescribed time is time-measured by the time measuring means which time-measures a predetermined time Terminal status acquisition means for storing information, security mode setting storage means for storing setting information relating to the security mode, and input means for providing a trigger for transitioning to the security mode from the outside. When input is performed, the information obtained by the terminal status acquisition unit is compared with the information stored in the security mode setting storage unit, and if the result is normal, the input security mode is set. If the result of comparison between the state determination means to be transferred and the state determination means is abnormal, or if the terminal information acquisition means When the state can not be obtained normally those having a notification means for notifying to that effect. As a result, since the security device makes an inquiry to the terminal device at a predetermined time, the communication state of the terminal device can always be monitored, and the abnormal state of the terminal device can be detected at an early time point. Since the status of the terminal device is monitored with a single communication, the state of the terminal device and the status of the terminal device held internally by the security device are matched with high probability while reducing communication traffic. Therefore, it is possible to perform the process of shifting to the security mode accurately and quickly.

  According to the second invention, in particular, in the security device of the first invention, the time measured by the time measuring means is set from the outside. As a result, the time measured by the time measuring means can be changed from the outside, so that the user or administrator goes to obtain the status of the terminal device in accordance with the time zone when the user uses the security mode. The time can be set, and the internal state used when the security device shifts to the security mode can be updated with more accurate information.

  For example, if the user knows that he / she is going out by setting the outing mode at 8 am every day, he sets 7:50 am as the time measuring means. By doing so, the communication with each terminal device is completed in advance before setting the outing mode and the state of the terminal device 10 minutes ago is acquired, so the reliability of the information is high.

  According to a third aspect of the invention, particularly in the security device of the first aspect of the invention, a time when a trigger for shifting to the security mode from the input means is given, an input information storage means for storing the input security mode, and the input information storage Security time transition time is predicted from the information stored in the means, and time measuring time setting means for setting the time just before the security mode transition time to the time measuring means is provided. Accordingly, the time when the user uses the security mode is predicted, and the time to go to acquire the state of the terminal device is set, so that the security device can perform security without bothering the user or the administrator. It becomes possible to update the internal state used when shifting to the mode to more accurate information.

  For example, the user stores and learns that he / she goes out by setting the outing mode every day at 8 am, so that the time measuring time setting means sets the time measuring means to 7:50 am. By doing so, the communication with each terminal device is completed in advance before setting the outing mode and the state of the terminal device 10 minutes ago is acquired, so the reliability of the information is high.

  According to a fourth aspect of the present invention, there is provided a security device including a communication unit that communicates with a terminal device, a time measuring unit that measures a predetermined time, and a battery voltage of the terminal device when the predetermined time is measured by the time measuring unit. A terminal state acquisition unit for acquiring a state, and when the terminal state acquisition unit cannot acquire the battery voltage state of the terminal device, or the battery voltage of the terminal device acquired by the terminal state acquisition unit is a predetermined value When it is determined that the following has occurred, it is provided with a display means for displaying that fact, thereby constantly monitoring the communication status of the terminal device in one communication and also constantly monitoring the battery voltage status of the terminal device. Therefore, while reducing communication traffic, it is possible to detect a communication error due to a decrease in battery voltage of the terminal device at an early stage, which is dangerous due to a communication error. It is possible to prevent the occurrence of a state, and it is also possible to detect the usage frequency and consumption level of the terminal device from the obtained battery voltage state. It is possible to urge the person to perform maintenance. Therefore, it is possible to provide a stable security service for a long period.

  According to a fifth aspect of the present invention, in particular, in the security device according to any one of the first to fourth aspects, the state acquired by the terminal state acquisition means is the open / closed state of the door or window, the destroyed state, the locked state, or the device. At least one of the ON / OFF states is set. Thereby, it is possible to enhance security by intensively monitoring the open / closed state of the doors and windows, the broken state, the locked state, and the ON / OFF state of the device.

  A sixth invention is a program for causing a computer to execute at least one means of the security device according to any one of claims 1 to 5. According to this configuration, since it is a program, a part or all of the security device of the present invention can be easily realized by cooperating hardware resources such as an electric / information device, a computer, and a server. Further, the program can be easily distributed by recording the program on a recording medium or distributing the program using a communication line.

  Hereinafter, an embodiment of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the drawings. Note that the present invention is not limited to the embodiments.

(Embodiment 1)
In the present embodiment, in a building such as a detached house or an apartment house, a security sensor (hereinafter referred to as “sensor”) is provided at an entrance or window that is an opening communicating with the outside, and the opening / closing door is opened by the sensor. Assume a security system in which a sash, door open / closed state, broken state, locked state, and the like are detected and communicated to be centrally monitored by a security device.

  FIG. 1 shows a configuration example of a security monitoring system in which a security device of the present invention and a terminal device such as a sensor are connected by a wireless communication line.

  There are a security device 1 and terminal devices 2A to 2C arranged in a security area where communication is possible. The terminal device 2A is an open / close sensor that detects an open / closed state of a door 3 that is an opening communicating with the outside. The device 2B is an open / close sensor that detects the open / close state of the window 4 that is an opening communicating with the outside, and the terminal device 2C is a state detection sensor that detects the ON / OFF state of the stove 5.

  These terminal devices 2A to 2C detect the state change when the open / close state of the door 3, the open / close state of the window 4, and the ON / OFF state of the stove 5 change, and transmit the current state to the security device 1. To do. The security device 1 holds the received state of each sensor inside, and performs communication for inquiring each terminal device 2A-C about the current state at a set time.

  In the present embodiment, only the open / close sensor and the stove state detection sensor are explicitly shown as the terminal device 2, but the “security sensor group”, “home electric appliance group” are also included as those that communicate with the security device 1. ”,“ Flow rate measuring device group ”, and“ health equipment group ”(described later).

  Note that both the “open / close sensor” and “human sensor” may be AC driven, but both the “open / close sensor” and “human sensor” are more likely to be installed in places where AC power is not available. There is convenience in time. Separately, the sensor may be AC driven instead of battery driven.

  In addition, in this embodiment, a specific low power radio is used as a communication medium in the house, but communication is not limited to a specific low power radio, but as power line, infrared, wireless LAN, bluetooth (R) Various communication media may be used.

  FIG. 2 shows an internal configuration diagram of the security device 1 in FIG.

  The security device 1 is detected to have reached the time set by the communication means 6 for communicating with the terminal devices 2A to C, the time measuring means 7 for measuring the time for inquiring the state of each terminal device, and the time measuring means 7. Terminal status acquisition that inquires about the status of the terminal devices 2A to 2C, acquires whether each terminal device is currently open, closed, ON, or OFF, and stores it in the security device Means 8 are provided.

  In addition, it includes a security mode storage means 10 that stores the setting of which sensor should be in what state at the time of transition to each security mode, and an input means 11 that gives a trigger for transition to each security mode. ing.

  When a trigger is given from the input unit 11, the state determination unit 12 is used to determine whether or not the current state of the terminal devices 2A to 2C can be shifted to the designated security mode. In the present embodiment, the security device makes a notification when an abnormality is detected when the security device makes an inquiry to the terminal devices 2A to 2C using the terminal information acquisition unit 8, and shifts to the security mode. When the result determined by the state determination unit 12 is abnormal, the notification unit 9 is mounted as the same notification unit that notifies the user. The notification means may not be the same.

  FIG. 3 shows an example of the security mode stored in the security mode storage means 10.

  In the present embodiment, as an example of the security mode, when going out, all the openings that communicate with the outside are closed, and the device is turned off, and the “outing warning mode M1” is turned off. The "home-at-home warning mode M2" which does not matter whether the power supply of the device is turned on or off is closed, and the "release mode M0" which is not involved in any state of all terminal devices. I gave three.

  That is, in the “going out warning mode M1”, when any one of the event that the window is open, the door is open, or the stove is turned on, the security device 1 is notified from the corresponding information terminal. Informs that.

  In the “at-home warning mode M2”, when the window is opened or the door is opened, the corresponding information terminal notifies the security device 1 and the security device 1 informs the user of the notification. The security device 1 does not report anything when receiving either ON / OFF notification from the device 2C.

  The “release mode M0” is used to release all notification settings.

  In addition, since these settings are only an example, the going-out warning mode M1 has a delay time in the time to shift to the going-out warning mode M1 in consideration of the time until the user goes out. Assuming that it will be used at bedtime, it is possible to set all terminal devices to the closed or OFF state, and the opening on the first floor of the house is closed, but the open / closed state of the second floor is It is also possible to set each terminal device individually, such as no question. The user can customize the security mode as necessary, or can add a new security mode.

  Further, in this embodiment, the terminal devices 2A to 2C adopt the open / close state of the open / close sensor and the ON / OFF state of the state detection sensor, but this is the lock state of the key depending on the object to be detected. However, it may be a window or door breakage state, a gas leak state or a human presence state, and the effect of the present invention is not limited by the state content or mode setting content. Absent.

  FIG. 4 shows an operation sequence of the security device 1 in FIG.

  As shown in FIG. 4A, the security device 1 makes an inquiry to the terminal device 2 at a predetermined time. The terminal device 2 that has received the inquiry returns status information 13 according to the content of the inquiry (current state in FIG. 3). At this time, the terminal device 2 is out of order (cannot be received / transmitted), the battery has run out, the radio wave propagation state has deteriorated, etc., as shown in FIG. If the status information cannot be received even after T1 time, it is determined that an error has occurred in the terminal device 2, and the security device 1 indicates that “cannot communicate with the terminal device. Check the status of the terminal device.” To inform. As a criterion for determining an abnormal state at this time, it is possible to add a condition such that a response is not returned even if it is retransmitted several times at regular intervals. In addition, as a notification means, the above-mentioned wording is displayed on the security device 1, a sound is urged to be urged, a notification is made to the outside using a communication line such as a telephone / Internet, etc. It is possible to set.

  When the security device 1 has successfully received the status information 13 (FIG. 4A), the status information is held in the terminal status acquisition means 8 (S1). Then, when the user goes out, the user operates the security device 1 to any security mode such as “outing warning mode M1” or “home warning mode M2” set in the security mode storage means 10 in advance. A trigger to be transferred is input (S2) (direct input or remote input with a remote controller / mobile phone or the like is also possible). Upon receiving the trigger, the security device 1 compares the setting contents set in the security mode storage means 10 with the state of each terminal device held inside, and the state determination means 12 determines whether the security mode is changed. It is determined whether or not it can be performed (S3), and the result is notified (S4, S5). When shifting to the security mode, communication with each terminal device is not performed.

  FIG. 5 shows an internal configuration diagram of the security device 1A provided with time measuring time input means for setting the time measured by the time measuring means 7 of the security device 1 in FIG. 1 from the outside. Components having the same configuration as in FIG.

  The timekeeping time input means 14 can set the time for inquiring about the status of each terminal device from the outside, and can also be set by the user using a communication line such as a telephone or the Internet. It is also possible. As for the former case, for example, when the user uses the “going out warning mode” and knows that he / she goes to work every day, if he / she enters the work time, each terminal device 10 minutes before the work time The time when the inquiry is made is set internally, and when the security mode is used, the state of the terminal device held by the security device 1 can be made more suitable for the current situation.

  In the latter case, for example, in the case of a security system that manages a plurality of buildings that collectively manage them at a remote location such as a management center, a communication message is used in accordance with the time zone in which the warning area is used. The time for making an inquiry to the terminal device can be set. FIG. 6 shows an example of the setting message.

  FIG. 6 shows an example in which a) a time measurement time is set by a time, and b) a time measurement time is set by a time interval. The setting message includes a request response specification 15 indicating whether or not a response is required, an information type specification 16 indicating what kind of data the attached data is (this time measurement time specification data), and how the time is specified. Is composed of a clocking type 17 and a clocking time data area 18 indicating whether or not to be designated. In the time measurement data area 18, the time measurement time 18 a is set if the time specification type 17 is set to 0x41, and the time measurement start date 18 b and the time measurement specification 18 b are set if the time interval specification is 0x42.

  FIG. 7 shows an internal configuration diagram of the security device 1B provided with time measuring time setting means for predicting and setting the time measured by the time measuring means 7 of the security device 1 in FIG. Components having the same configuration as in FIG.

  The security device 1B has an input information storage unit 20, and the input information storage unit 20 stores a time when a trigger to shift to the security mode from the input unit 11 is given and the input security mode. In other words, if a person who goes to work every day at 8 am in this monitoring area lives, it is stored that “outing warning mode” is used at “every day” and “8 am in the morning”. Then, the security mode transition time is predicted by the timekeeping time setting means 21 from the information stored in the input information storage means 20, and the time slightly before the security mode transition time is set in the timekeeping means 7. In the above-described case, the “going out alarm mode” is set at “every day” and “8:00 am”, and therefore, from the diagram shown in FIG. 3, “door open / close sensor (terminal device 2A)” “window open / close sensor (terminal device)”. 2B) ”and“ Stove state detection sensor (terminal device 2C) ”are inquired about the state 10 minutes before“ everyday ”and“ 8:00 am ”. In the present embodiment, the time for inquiring about the state of the terminal device is 10 minutes before the input time, but this time can be arbitrarily changed.

(Embodiment 2)
In this embodiment, the security device of the present invention that can constitute a system similar to the system shown in FIG. 1 of the first embodiment, when communicating with the terminal device 32, confirms the communication state and The security device 31 that acquires battery voltage information will be described.

  FIG. 8 shows an internal configuration diagram of the security device 31 in the present embodiment.

  When the security device 31 detects that the communication means 36 that communicates with the terminal device 32, the time measuring means 37 that measures the time for inquiring the state of each terminal device, and the time set by the time measuring means 37 are reached. Is inquired of the state of the terminal device 32 and the terminal state acquisition means 38 for acquiring the battery voltage state of the terminal device. And when the security device 31 makes an inquiry about the battery voltage state to the terminal device 32 using the terminal state acquisition means 38, a notification means 39 is provided to notify when an abnormality is detected.

  FIG. 9 shows an operation sequence of the security device 31 shown in FIG.

  As shown in FIG. 9A, the security device 31 makes an inquiry to the terminal device 32 at a predetermined time. The terminal device 32 that has received the inquiry returns battery voltage information 33 in accordance with the content of the inquiry.

  At this time, the terminal device 32 is broken (cannot be received / transmitted), the battery is exhausted, the radio wave propagation state is deteriorated, etc., as shown in FIG. If the status information cannot be received even after T1 time, it is determined that an error has occurred in the terminal device 32, and the security device 1 indicates that “cannot communicate with the terminal device. Check the status of the terminal device.” To inform. As a criterion for determining an abnormal state at this time, it is possible to add a condition such that a response is not returned even if it is retransmitted several times at regular intervals. In addition, as a notification means, the above-mentioned wording is displayed on the security device 1, a sound is urged to be urged, a notification is made to the outside using a communication line such as a telephone / Internet, etc. It is possible to set.

  When the battery voltage information 33 can be normally received by the security device 31 (FIG. 9A), it is determined whether the battery voltage information satisfies a set value, and if the result is abnormal. The notification means 39 notifies the user of that fact, thereby urging the user to perform maintenance. If normal, the value is retained.

  In this way, by constantly monitoring the battery voltage and maintaining the current value of the battery voltage, it is possible to cope with an early stage when an abnormality occurs in the terminal device, and to monitor the usage frequency and the degree of consumption of the terminal device. It provides a mechanism that can prompt the user to perform maintenance before an abnormality occurs in the terminal device by estimating the replacement time of the battery or the terminal device.

  In this embodiment, an open / close sensor and a state detection sensor are used as examples. However, the present invention can be applied to various terminal devices.

  In this embodiment, wireless is used as a communication medium in the house, but the same effect can be obtained by using any communication medium such as wired communication using a dedicated line, power line carrier communication, infrared communication, and optical fiber communication. Is.

  In this embodiment, wireless is used, but a similar system can be constructed even using a network such as a dedicated line or a LAN, and this system does not depend on a communication line.

  As described above, in the present embodiment, since the security device makes an inquiry to the terminal device at a predetermined time, the communication state of the terminal device can always be monitored, and the abnormal state of the terminal device can be monitored at an early point. Since it is possible to detect and monitor the status of the terminal device with a single communication, the status of the terminal device and the terminal held internally by this security device while reducing communication traffic It is possible to match the state of the apparatus with a high probability, and to perform the process of shifting to the security mode accurately and quickly.

  In addition, since the time measured by the time measuring means can be changed from the outside, the time for the user or administrator to go to acquire the status of the terminal device in accordance with the time zone in which the user uses the security mode. Can be set, and the internal state used when the security device shifts to the security mode can be updated with more accurate information.

  And since the user predicts the time zone in which the security mode is used and sets the time to go to acquire the status of the terminal device, the security device can be set in the security mode without bothering the user or the administrator. It becomes possible to update the internal state used when shifting to the more accurate information.

  In addition, the communication status of the terminal device is constantly monitored with a single communication, and the battery voltage status of the terminal device is also constantly monitored. It can be detected at an early point in time, and it is possible to prevent a dangerous state from occurring due to a communication abnormality, and the terminal device usage frequency and degree of consumption are detected from the obtained battery voltage state. Therefore, it is possible to urge the user to perform maintenance before an abnormality occurs in the terminal device. Therefore, it is possible to provide a stable security service for a long period.

  Also, the door / window open / close state, destruction state, lock state, and device ON / OFF are concentrated by setting the acquired state as the door / window open / close state, destruction state, locking state, and device ON / OFF. Can be monitored to improve security.

  Note that the “security sensor group” in the text refers to, for example, an open / close sensor that is installed on a window or door in the home, responds to an intruder from the outside, and notifies that to that effect. This refers to a human sensor that detects the presence or absence and uses a warning sound or notification to intimidate or inform it to prevent intruders from outside. These are assumed to be installed around each household.

  The “home appliance group” refers to home appliances used at home such as washing machines, microwave ovens, air conditioners, refrigerators, rice cookers, and water heaters. The “flow rate measuring device group” is an energy measuring device called a lifeline of each household such as electricity, gas, and water, and the gas meter measures the flow rate of each energy and has various security functions. In some cases.

  For example, the gas meter has a shut-off function that shuts off the gas flow, and has a function of automatically shutting off the gas flow and reporting the fact when a gas leak or an earthquake occurs. Further, when the gas meter is a gas meter for LP gas, for example, it has a function of detecting the remaining amount of the LP gas cylinder. That is, when the remaining amount of the LP gas cylinder falls below a predetermined level, or when the remaining amount is exhausted, the gas meter detects and notifies that fact. The reporting method is the same as in the case of the above-mentioned blocking. Upon receiving the report, the gas service provider can deliver a gas cylinder to the household and perform work such as replacement.

  The “health equipment group” refers to health equipment such as a sphygmomanometer, a weight scale, a body fat percentage meter, and a pedometer. Each of these devices may exist as a single device, or may be incorporated in, for example, a warm water toilet seat. Devices that measure the state of excrement using a toilet and acquire health data are also included in the “health device group”. In any case, the data acquired by these “health equipment groups” can be reported to an external mobile phone, personal computer, medical institution, service center, etc. via the security device 1. Furthermore, it is also possible to acquire these data remotely from outside such as a medical institution.

  In addition, the security device 1 sets / releases various warning operations for the “security sensor group”, controls the power ON / OFF of the “home appliance group”, and turns on / off the flow rate for the “flow rate measurement device group”. It also plays the role of performing such control. Here, in the case of the “security sensor group”, since it is difficult to supply AC power, the “security sensor group” generally operates with a battery. In addition, when the “flow rate measuring device group” is a gas meter or a water meter, the gas meter or the water meter is installed in the garden or the back side of each home and normally operates with a battery. On the other hand, in the case of the “home appliance group”, the operation is performed by supplying AC power. Thus, the system is configured by the security device 1 and the terminal devices 2 such as at least one “security sensor group”, “home appliance group”, “flow rate measuring device group”, and “health device group”.

  Note that the means described in this embodiment causes hardware resources such as a CPU (or microcomputer), a RAM, a ROM, a storage / recording device, an electrical / information device including an I / O, a computer, a server, and the like to cooperate. You may implement with the form of a program. In the form of a program, new functions can be distributed / updated and installed easily by recording them on a recording medium such as magnetic media or optical media or distributing them using a communication line such as the Internet.

  As described above, the security device and the program according to the present invention inquire the state from the security device to the terminal at a predetermined time and notify when a communication abnormality is detected. Also, if the communication is successful, the terminal device status is held internally, and when the security mode transition trigger is received, the status of the terminal device held internally and the contents of the set security mode If it is determined that there is an abnormality, the user is informed so that the abnormal state of the terminal device can be detected at an early point in time, and the state of the terminal device and this security can be reduced while reducing communication traffic. The state of the terminal device held internally by the device can be matched with a high probability, and the process of shifting to the security mode can be performed accurately and promptly.
