Description

How to send a fax's memory dial list by remote control

The present invention relates to a facsimile remote control method, and more particularly, to a method for transmitting a memory dial list stored in a local facsimile by remote control.

A typical facsimile machine has the ability to set fax numbers and telephone numbers to memory dials, which users frequently send or call. Therefore, when the user wants to withdraw the memory dial list, the memory dial list has to be drawn out by directly operating the operating unit of the local fax.

That is, in the conventional facsimile use as described above, the user has often failed to remember the number by setting the frequently used fax number and the telephone number as a memory dial. In particular, when going out and sending faxes and making calls, it was often difficult to remember the numbers, and it was burdensome to receive the numbers due to the service charge collection of the Korean telecommunications information telephone.

Accordingly, the present invention provides a method for remotely transmitting a memory dial list stored in a facsimile by remote control.

In order to achieve the above object, a remote control signal is received from a remote site to determine whether it matches a secret code, and if it matches the secret code, a remote control mode is performed to transmit a memory dial list to a remote facsimile.

1 is a block diagram of a facsimile according to the present invention.

2 is an operational flow diagram for transmitting a facsimile's memory dial list to a remote location in accordance with one embodiment of the present invention.

Hereinafter, preferred embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.

1 is a diagram showing the configuration of a facsimile, the control unit 10 controls the overall facsimile according to the program. The memory 20 included in the controller 10 includes a ROM for storing program and service data and a RAM for temporarily storing data generated during program execution. The memory 20 stores a memory dial list in which fax numbers and telephone numbers which are frequently used in the present invention are registered. The LIU (Line Interface Unit) 30 forms a call path between the telephone line and the modem 40 under the control of the control unit 10. The modem 40 demodulates an analog signal input through the LIU30 into a digital signal under the control of the controller 10, modulates the digital signal provided from the controller 10 into an analog signal, and analyzes various tone signals received through a telephone line. . The scanner 50 scans a document, modulates it into image data, and provides the same to the controller 10. The printer 60 prints image data provided in the reception or copy mode under the control of the controller 10. The OPE (Operating Pannel) 70 is composed of key metrics including a plurality of numeric keys, and provides key data generated by a key operation to the controller 10 and displays an operation state on the display window under the control of the controller 10. The answering machine 80 is composed of a digital signal processor, a codec, and a voice storage memory to manage an outgoing message (OCM). The digital signal processing unit converts the digital signal into numerical data under the control of the controller 10 and stores the digital signal in the voice storage memory or reads the stored numerical data into a digital signal. The voice storage memory stores voice data input as numerical data.

2 is an operation flowchart for remotely transmitting a memory dial list according to the present invention.

Hereinafter, an embodiment of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to FIG. 2.

First, the controller 10 checks the ring detection from the LIU30 in step 211. In this case, if ring detection is checked, the controller 10 forms a call path and proceeds to step 213. If the ring detection is not checked, the controller 10 continues to perform ring detection.

When the communication path is formed, the controller 10 checks the hookoff in step 213. In this case, if the hookoff is checked, the process proceeds to step 233 to perform a phone call mode. If the hookoff is not checked, the process proceeds to step 215.

The controller 10 detects a remote control signal in step 215. Here, the remote control signals are signals generated by the user's key operation, and are signals that can operate the local fax at a remote location. For example, it may be a dual tone multi frequency (DTMF) signal or a dial pulae (DP) signal. In this case, if the remote control signal is not detected, the controller 10 proceeds to step 235 to perform a fax mode, and when the remote control signal is detected, proceeds to step 217.

The controller 10 proceeds to step 217 and compares whether the remote control signal received in step 215 matches the secret code registered in the internal memory. If the remote control signal matches the secret code, the controller 10 proceeds to step 219. If the remote control signal does not match the secret code, the controller 10 proceeds to step 215 to redetect the remote control signal.

When the remote control signal corresponding to the secret code is detected, the controller 10 executes the remote control mode in step 219, and proceeds to step 221 to send a message from the answering machine 90. Herein, the message is a message for inducing selection of a memory dial list transmission mode in the present invention.

The controller 10 proceeds to step 223 to detect a remote control signal. In this case, if the remote control signal is detected, the controller 10 proceeds to step 225, and if the remote control signal is not detected, proceeds to step 221 to resend the message.

In step 225, the controller 10 determines whether the remote control signal detection result is a memory dial list transmission mode. In the memory dial list transmission mode, the control unit 10 proceeds to step 227 to switch the facsimile to the transmission mode. If the memory dial list transmission mode is not specified, the control unit 10 proceeds to step 237 to perform the corresponding mode.

After the facsimile is switched to the transmission mode in step 227, the controller 10 transmits the memory dial list to the remote facsimile in step 229.

The memory dial list is a function of storing fax numbers and telephone numbers frequently used by a user in a specific area of the memory. The memory dial list retrieves the stored numbers whenever necessary and performs a memory dialing process such as one-touch dialing. Some kind of phone number data.

The controller 10 checks whether the memory dial list transmission is completed in step 231. In this case, if the memory dial list transmission is not completed, the controller 10 proceeds to step 229 and continuously transmits the memory dial list. When the memory dial list transmission is completed, the controller 10 ends the remote control mode. .

The program below in step 219 will be described with reference to an example based on a user key operation.

First, the local fax set in the remote control mode sends a message to the remote fax to induce the memory dial list transmission mode.

At this time, the user transmits a DTMF signal for controlling the memory dial list transmission to the local facsimile by key operation of the remote facsimile based on the message.

Then, the local facsimile recognizes the DTMF signal and switches the local facsimile to the transmission mode in order to perform the memory dial list transmission mode, and simultaneously transmits a tone signal indicating that preparation for memory dial list transmission is completed.

At this time, the user inputs a key for switching the remote facsimile to a reception mode in order to recognize the tone signal and to receive a memory dial list. The local facsimile then detects a DTMF signal according to the key input and simultaneously transmits a memory dial list to the remote facsimile.

As described above, the present invention allows a user to receive a memory dial list stored in a local fax by a simple adjustment at a remote location. Therefore, the user can use a frequently used fax number and a telephone number registered in the memory dial list of the local fax. You can get it easily. This allows you to fax or make a phone call to the memory dial, which you often use when you go out but do not remember.
