16. A monitoring device comprising:
-
a mobile telephone having a radio transmit/receive function; an operation detection unit detects a key input operation by a user; a transmission control unit, when a preset period has elapsed since the key input operation was last detected, has the mobile telephone transmit an emergency notification message to a predetermined address; a time clocking unit to clock time; an operation history recording unit to record operation history information on a recording medium whenever the key input operation by the user is detected, the operation history information including a content of the detected key input operation and a detection time clocked by the time clocking unit; a call reception unit receives a call request message from another communication terminal; and a code judgment unit judges whether the received call request message includes an acquisition request identification code showing the call request message to be an acquisition request for operation history information, wherein the transmission control unit has the mobile telephone transmit the operation history information recorded on the recording medium to the other communication terminal if the acquisition request identification code is included.

17. A monitoring method in a monitoring device that includes a mobile telephone having a radio transmit/receive function, comprising the steps of:
-
detecting a key input operation by a user; acquiring position information showing a current position of the monitoring device; judging whether the position of the monitoring device has shifted, based on the acquired position information; and having the mobile telephone transmit an emergency notification message to a predetermined address, when the key input operation has not been detected in the operation detection step in a preset period, and furthermore, the position of the monitoring device has been judged in the position-shift judgment step to have not shifted.
