Abstract

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To allow a visitor not to realize the absence of a resident by allowing the resident to communicate with the visitor in real time between an interphone and a telephone set at a visiting plane when the resident is absent. SOLUTION: When a possessor of a telephone system connecting to an interphone line and a telephone line goes out, the possessor sets absence to an automatic answering setting means 4 and designates a telephone number or the like of a telephone set (such as a portable telephone set), by which transfer of a call is desired to a transfer destination setting means 5. When a visitor depresses an interphone 1 and an interphone depression detection section 2 detects it, after a control means 3 recognizes that the automatic answering setting means 4 has set absence, the control means 3 makes a call request to the transfer destination which is set to the transfer destination setting means 5 via a speech start control means 6. When a telephone system 8 receiving the call request sets up a speech state with the transfer destination, the control means 3 closes a SW 7 to connect the interphone 1 and a voice line of the telephone system 8, thereby establishing a speech between the interphone and the transfer destination.

Allowing the corresponding real-time in the same manner as is. Therefore, there is an effect that it is not realized that the visitor is absent.

According to a second aspect of the present invention, in a telephone device to which an intercom line including image data and a telephone line of a fixed network (wired) or a wireless communication network are connected, a visitor sent when the intercom is pressed is provided. Interphone press detection means for detecting a notification signal, transfer destination setting means for setting a transfer destination in advance when absent, call start control means for starting a call to the transfer destination by detecting the visitor notification signal, 2. The communication system according to claim 1, further comprising connection means for connecting a voice line and an image data line on the intercom line side and the telephone line side when a call is established with the transfer destination. In addition to the function, the method has an effect that the user can respond while visually confirming the visitor.

[0009] The invention described in claim 3 is the first invention.
Or the intercom answering device at the answering machine in the telephone apparatus according to 2, wherein one or both of the voice and image data on the intercom line when the call cannot be established between the time measuring means of the clock and the transfer destination. Means for recording together with the timekeeping data detected by the timekeeping means, so that the visitor's requirements can be saved with a time stamp, and the absentee can respond to the visitor in real time. If not,
It has the effect of knowing at a minimum the requirements and the presence or absence of a visitor.

Further, according to a fourth aspect of the present invention, in the answering machine of the telephone answering machine of the first or second aspect of the present invention, a telephone call between the means for creating and storing a voice message and a transfer destination is provided. Means for sending the voice message to the transfer destination partner by being established. Since it is possible to indicate the absence transfer by the presence or absence of the message, Has the effect of being able to determine whether the absentee is a call with a visitor or a general call.
