                    data transmitting means for transmitting said data                
               stored in said data storing means to said remote                       
               management apparatus;                                                  
                    transmission time interval storing means for                      
               storing a transmission time interval; and                              
                    terminal device control means for requesting a                    
               line connection to said remote management apparatus in                 
               said transmission time interval stored in said                         
               transmission time interval storing means, and for, when                
               said line connection is not attained, repeatedly                       
               requesting said line connection every predetermined                    
               first time period in said transmission time interval,                  
               said predetermined first time period being shorter than                
               said transmission time interval,
