Abstract

PURPOSE:To attain the call even if a terminal device is in use, by providing a function displaying an interruption signal to an on-line terminal device. CONSTITUTION:The on-line terminal device 1 makes communication with an electronic computer 5 on on-line via a voice coupler 2, a telephone set 7, a telephone line 3, an electronic exchange 4, and a telephone line 6. When a telephone set 7 of the telephone line 3 is called from a telephone set 8 of other telephone line 9, the electronic exchange 4 keeps the telephone line 6 of the telephone line 6 of the electronic computer 5 waiting to generate an interruption signal to the telephone line 3. The on-line terminal device 1 receives this interruption signal and displays the calling of telephone to a display section of the terminal device 1. The user of the terminal selects to continue the on-line processing with a telephone set 7 or to make a call with the telephone set 8.

Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION [Field of the Invention] The present invention relates to an online interruption method, and more particularly to an interruption method using an electronic exchange for an online terminal using a telephone line.

[Prior art]

Traditionally, with online terminals that use telephone lines, the telephone line is busy while the terminal is in use.
Even when calling from another phone, the call was busy and could not be made. Furthermore, since the terminals are used for a relatively long period of time, it is difficult to make phone calls.

[Purpose of the invention]

An object of the present invention is to provide an exchange with a function of generating an interrupt signal when a telephone line used by an online terminal receives a call from another telephone while the telephone line is being used. It is an object of the present invention to solve the above-mentioned drawbacks by providing a function of displaying the above-mentioned interrupt signal, and to enable telephone calls even when the terminal is in use.

[Structure of the invention]

According to the present invention, the exchange includes means for generating an interrupt signal to the online terminal when an interruption occurs in the online terminal using the telephone line, and means for generating an interrupt signal to the online terminal using the telephone line. The online terminal has means for displaying the interrupt signal when it receives the interrupt signal, and the computer connected to the online terminal is activated by the wait signal. An online interrupt method characterized by having a means for temporarily stopping transmission and reception with a machine [Description of Embodiments] Next, the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the drawings. In FIG. 1 showing an embodiment of the present invention, an online terminal 1 communicates online with a computer 5 via an acoustic coupler 2, a telephone 7, a telephone line 3, an electronic exchange 4, and a telephone line 6. There is.

At this time, if the telephone 7 of the telephone line 3 is called by the telephone 8 of another telephone line 9, the electronic exchange 4 puts the telephone line 6 of the electronic meter and W device 5 into the waiting state KL, and the telephone line 3, generates an interrupt signal. The online terminal 1 receives this interrupt signal and displays on the display of the terminal 1 that there is a telephone call. The terminal user can choose whether to continue online processing using the telephone 7 or to make a call to the telephone 8.

If a call is selected, the electronic exchange 4 connects the telephones 7 and 8, and when the call ends, the electronic exchange 4 releases the waiting state of the telephone line 6, and the terminal user returns to online processing again. be able to.

If continuation of online processing is selected, a signal indicating that the official language machine 7 is in use is generated on the telephone line #9, the waiting state of the telephone line 6 is released, and the communication between the online terminal 1 and the computer 5 is resumed. communicate.

〔Effect of the invention〕

As explained above, the present invention has the effect that by providing an exchange with an interrupt function for online terminals, and combining this with an online terminal capable of interrupt display, telephone calls can be made even during online processing. There is.

Claims (1)

[Claims] The exchange includes means for generating an interrupt signal to the online terminal when an interruption occurs in the online terminal using the telephone line, and generating a waiting signal to the computer connected to the online terminal. and means for displaying the interrupt signal when the online terminal t receives the interrupt signal, and the electronic computer connected to the online terminal t can communicate with the online terminal by the waiting signal. An online interrupt method characterized by having means for temporarily stopping transmission and reception.
