1. A remote monitoring system for monitoring a mobile work vehicle or vessel, the mobile work vehicle or vessel having a remote monitoring terminal device mounted thereon, the remote monitoring system comprising:

  • a management server for communicating with the remote monitoring terminal device, the management server configured to have;

    a control section configured to process information;

    the control section having a storage section configured to store the information processed by the control section; and

    a communication section configured to communicate with the remote monitoring terminal device, wherein, the communication section receives;

    a startup date and time of the remote monitoring terminal device from the remote monitoring terminal device when the remote monitoring terminal device is started up; and

    a shutdown date and time of the remote monitoring terminal device, and minimum values, maximum values, and average values of data detected by the remote monitoring terminal device during an operation of the mobile work vehicle or vessel, and occurrence counts and durations of predetermined events from the remote monitoring terminal device when the remote monitoring terminal device is shut down,wherein the control section distinguishes, by a daily report in a unit of an operation day for at least one operation time period from a startup to shutdown, the startup date and time, the shutdown date and time, the minimum values, the maximum values, the average values, and the occurrence counts and the durations of the predetermined events, which are received by the communication section, and the control section stores the received and distinguished information in the storage section in a unit of terminal identification information of the remote monitoring terminal device,wherein the control section causes a display screen of a display section to selectably display the at least one operation time period for which the mobile work vehicle or vessel is operated,wherein, when one of the at least one operation time period is selected on the display screen, the control section reads, from the storage section, the minimum values, the maximum values, the average values, and the occurrence counts and the durations of the predetermined events, all of which correspond to the selected operation time period, out of the startup date and time, the shutdown date and time, the minimum values, the maximum values, the average values, and the occurrence counts and the durations of the predetermined events, which are stored in the storage section in a unit of the terminal identification information, and causes another display screen of the display section to display together with the startup date and time and the shutdown date and time, the minimum values, the maximum values, the average values, and the occurrence counts and the durations of the predetermined events, which are read from the storage section, andthe work vehicle or vessel includes at least one work section and the remote monitoring terminal device further includes a power supply control section and multiple types of connection terminals connected to output elements at which data on an operation state is supplied external to the remote monitoring terminal device to various electronic control devices to control multiple operating states of multiple work sections,wherein the at least one work section includes a startup switch SW and a battery BT,wherein the power supply control section has a timer function and is connected to the battery BT via a power supply connecting line Lbt to periodically start up a power supply, no matter whether the startup switch SW is being turned off or on, andwherein the power supply control section periodically starts up the power supply while the startup switch SW of the mobile work vehicle or vessel is being turned off, such that the power supply control section in the remote monitoring terminal device is always fed with electric power from the battery BT, and that the power supply to the control section is not turned off by the power supply control section when the startup switch SW is turned off.
