A terminal includes a memory in which is stored an application program and further includes at least one output constituted either by a display, or by a printer, or by a communications network, or by a portable object. The terminal cooperates with a portable object such as a "smart card", which includes a non-volatile memory area (ZD) containing data. The terminal includes a reader which communicates with the portable object and is characterized in that there is provided a mechanism for reading or storing self-diagnostic or supervisory data (Ti, Dj, Sk) in the terminal memory and a mechanism for sending the data to outputs (1-4) of the terminal specified as a function of information supplied by the self-diagnostic or supervisory data following the execution of at least one task Tt of the application program operating in connection with the portable object.
