Abstract

PURPOSE:To make an abbreviated dial call only by the operation of the electronic telephone set by storing subscribers to be called and their abbreviated numbers, etc., and displaying stored information on a display part with a display key. CONSTITUTION:A caller operates ''KANA'' (Japanese syllabary) and a ''KANA''- ''KANJI'' (Chinese character) conversion key 41a to input the initials of a subscriber to be called and then presses a memory access key 41b as one of function keys 51. Then, a central processor 1 retrieves and reads the subscriber having the initials out of a subscriber storage part 31 and displays subscriber information on a display part 8 through a display buffer 6 and a character generator 7. When a desired subscriber appears on the display part 8, an abbreviated dial key 41g is depressed and a dial key 43 is operated to input an abbreviated dial number. The central processor 1 retrieves the abbreviated dial number in a conversion table 32 and converts it into the code signal of a normal dial number, which is sent to a dial transmission control part.

A display section and a control section are provided for displaying information stored in the destination memory section on the display section by operating the display keys, and the caller can select the desired call from the information displayed on the display section by operating the display keys. Now you can select the destination speed dial number and use the keys to make a speed dial call.

[Embodiments of the invention]

Hereinafter, one embodiment of the present invention will be described based on the drawings.

FIG. 1 is a block diagram showing the system configuration of an electronic telephone with a speed dial function according to an embodiment of the present invention. The electronic telephone includes a central processing unit 1, a ROM 2 that stores various processing programs, a RAM 3 that stores call destination information such as call names and speed dials, and a key part 4 that is composed of a group of various keys.
, a buffer 5, a display buffer 6, a character generator 7, a display section 8 consisting of a liquid crystal, etc., a dial sending control section 9
, communication path switch 10. It is composed of a handset and a receiver 11. The ROM 2 stores various programs such as a display processing program 21, a registration processing program 22, and a speed dial processing program 23. The RAM 3 includes a destination storage section 31 that stores destinations and speed dial numbers, an exchange table 32 that converts speed dial signals into normal dial signals, and the like. The key part 4 includes a function key 41, a kana character key 42 . It is composed of a dial key 43. Further, the function keys 41 include a kana-kanji conversion key 41a and a memory recall key 41, as shown in FIG.
b, call key 41C, registration key 41d, hook key 41
e, a cancel key 41f, a speed dial key 41g, etc.

First, when registering a call destination in the call destination recording section of the RAM 3, operate the kana character key 42 and the kana-kanji conversion key 41a of the function key 41,
When a speed dial number is input, it is converted into a code signal by the central processing unit 1 and stored in the display buffer 6, and further converted into a character signal by the character generator turf, and the input telephone number, speed dial number, etc. are displayed on the display section 8. will be displayed. If the information displayed on the display section 8 is correct, press the registration key 4 of the function keys 4-1.
When 1d is pressed, the code signal of the call name and speed dial number is stored in the call destination storage section 31 of the RAM 3. By repeating the above operations, a large number of call destination information is registered in the RAM 3. The above registration process is performed by the registration process program 22 in the ROM2.

Next, when making a speed dial call, the caller first operates the kana character key 42 and the kana-kanji conversion key 41a to input the initial letter of the person to be called, and then presses the memory recall key 41b of the function key 41. The central processing unit 1 searches the call destination storage section 31 for the call destination with the initial letter, reads it out, and displays the call destination information on the display section 8 through the display buffer 6 and the character generator 7. The display section 8 shows the third
As shown in the figure, for example, when the first letter of ``日'' is input, the telephone sales name 81 with ``日'' as the first letter and its speed dial number 82 are displayed. If the desired call name does not appear on the display section, press the memory recall key 41b to display the first arranged call name with "day" as the first letter and its speed dial number 82. If the desired call name does not appear on the display section, when the memory call key 41b is pressed again, the next arranged call destination with the initial letter r, day, and j is displayed on the display section 8.

The above call and display processing is performed by the display processing program 2 in ROM2.
