Abstract

PURPOSE:To correctly search the trouble interval of an up-feed interval by transmitting the operating state of a relay device to the monitor controller of a head end through a monitor information transmitter operated according to a polling in a feeder. CONSTITUTION:The relay devices 8, 10, 12 for feeding to the head end 1 have monitor signal generators 21, 22, 23 and constantly transmit mutually different monitor signals. The feeder 17 is provided with a monitor signal detection circuit 24 to monitor said monitor signal and when the feeder 17 is polled, it transmits a signal relating to the state of the monitor signal to the monitor controller 2 through a cable 20. Accordigly, when the relay device does not respond, the head end 1 polls to the feeder 17 through the cable 20 to collect information on the presence or absence of the monitor signal from the monitor signal generators 21, 22, 23 from the feeder 17.
