When the CPU 10 detects a call from the door phone handset 2, it outputs a ringing tone and operates the talk button (see FIG. 6) to respond to this ringing tone. Using the speaker SP2 and the microphone MI2 and the speaker SP1 and the microphone MI1 of the intercom master unit 1, a call can be started between the two.

In the intercom master unit 1, when the "call for disconnecting customer call" transmission button is operated during a telephone call, an instruction to transmit a trigger sound / voice for terminating the call is issued to the ROM 11, and the call to the door phone slave unit 2 is transmitted to the intercom slave unit 2 side. Send out sounds or voices that will trigger the

Further, the intercom master unit 1 can transmit a sound for ending the call to the lobby interphone via the alarm monitoring panel 3 even during a call with the lobby interphone (see FIG. 2). And Further, even during a call with an alarm monitoring panel (see FIG. 2) installed in a control room or the like, a sound that triggers termination of the call may be transmitted to the alarm monitoring panel.

FIG. 2 is a diagram showing an example of the configuration of the collective housing communication system. Here, the intercom master unit 1 installed in each dwelling unit constitutes a house information panel, and a security sensor such as a fire sensor S1 is connected via the intercom slave unit 2, and the sensor S1 is activated. When an alarm is issued, an alarm is output and an alarm occurrence is notified to the alarm monitoring panel 3.

The alarm interrogation panel 3 is connected to a lobby intercom 4. When the alarm interrogation panel 3 receives a call specifying a dwelling unit from the lobby intercom 4, the alarm interrogation panel 3 calls the intercom master unit 1 of the corresponding dwelling unit. Allows both parties to talk.

FIG. 3 is a flowchart (100-107) showing the operation of the intercom master unit 1. Here, a case of a hands-free call is shown, and the call is automatically ended when a predetermined time has elapsed from the start of the call. If there is an operation for sending a trigger sound for ending a call during a call with the doorphone slave 2 or the like, a sound set in advance by the resident is sent to the doorphone slave 2, and the call ends when the time is up (100 to 100). 105). On the other hand, if there is no operation for sending a trigger sound for ending the call during a call with the intercom 2 or the like and the time is up, the call is ended (106, 107).

The intercom master unit 1 can transmit a sound to the intercom slave unit 2 after a predetermined time has elapsed from the start of the call with the intercom slave unit 2 to trigger the call to end. As a result, before a call is automatically terminated in a hands-free call, a trigger sound for terminating the call is transmitted, so that the reason for terminating the call can be conveyed to the visitor. I did not give a bad impression such as

Further, after a predetermined time has elapsed from the start of the call with the lobby intercom 4, a sound for triggering the end of the call can be automatically transmitted to the lobby intercom 4. Further, after a lapse of a predetermined time from the start of the call with the alarm monitoring panel 3, a sound for ending the call is generated.
The information may be transmitted to the alarm monitoring panel 3.

FIG. 4 is a flowchart (200 to 205) showing the operation of the intercom master unit 1. Here, a case of a hands-free call is shown, and the call is automatically ended when a predetermined time has elapsed from the start of the call. When a certain period of time elapses during a call with the doorphone handset 2 or the like, a sound set by the resident is transmitted to the doorphone handset 2 side, and the call ends when the time is up.

Further, intercom master unit 1 stores a plurality of sounds that trigger a call to be ended, and the sound to be transmitted can be selected in advance. Intercom master unit 1
Then, first, the “call to customer call disconnection trigger” setting button is operated to enter the setting mode. Then, a sound or a sound sounds each time the feed button is operated, so that the sound or sound to be set is selected, and the setting button is completed by operating the confirm button.

When the same type of intercom is used in a condominium or a built-for-sale house, if the call is cut off with the same trigger sound, the visitor may be suspicious. And that eliminates that possibility.

Further, intercom master unit 1 has a recording function, and is capable of recording sound to be transmitted in advance. This makes it possible to set a trigger sound suitable for the resident to end the call. In the intercom master unit 1, first, the “call to customer call disconnection trigger” setting button is operated to enter the setting mode. Then, by operating the recording button, a sound that can be used as a trigger is input from the microphone MI1.

Next, an example of the appearance of the intercom master unit 1 is shown in FIG. The intercom master unit 1 has a monitor TV t
