PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To manage even the states of a branch line and a sub-branch line in addition to the management of a terminal state by managing the states of a terminal and the branch line connected a terminal controller on a host computer. SOLUTION: A state management updating part 14 updates a terminal state in a state management record of a state management table on the basis of the content of a terminal control telegram (a) inputted from a terminal controller 12 respectively while a station is open, while the station is closed or during a fault occurrence. In the case the telegram (a) is a terminal fault telegram, a message to the effect that a terminal fails is notified to a system operator console 13. The name of a sub-branch line in terminal information is referred to by sub-branch line state monitoring processing. When the name of the sub- branch line is defined, the terminal where the same name of the sub-branch line is defined is retrieved from a branch line information table. In the case the terminal states of terminals where the same name of the sub-branch line is defined are entirely closed or in a fault, a message to the effect that the sub-branch line fails is notified to the console 13.
