Abstract

PURPOSE:To attain the security service without providing a security terminal newly by inputting an alarm signal coming from a security sensor, processing the alarm signal with a data processing circuit and giving to a data communicating circuit. CONSTITUTION:An alarm signal outputted from a security sensor 108 is inputted to a sensor input circuit 106, processed with a data processing information 105 and transmitted through a data communicating circuit 104 in accordance with the polling from a center, to the center. The polling from the center and the transmission to the center are commonly carried out with the same frequency as the bidirectional data communication for the viewing control and the accounting processing of the chargeable program and the data communicating circuit 104 is commonly used. Thus, only by adding to the data processing circuit 105, the security service can be performed without providing a data communicating circuit and a data processing circuit newly.
