Various information is sequentially and automatically input from the information provider 1 to the information relay 2a via the communication interface 2a ₁ or required via the communication interface 2a _{1 according} to a request from the center control device 2c. Information is input. Since the data form (computer language etc.) of various information input to these information relays 2a differs depending on each information provider, the information relay 2a determines the input information by the remote display device of this embodiment. Convert to data format. For this reason,
A data conversion format is stored in the memory 2a ₂ . The information converted according to the conversion format is
It is stored in a predetermined area of the memory 2a ₃ (for example, an area divided for each information provider).

The information thus stored in the memory 2a ₃ is transmitted by the communication interface 2 according to a command from the MPU 2c ₁₃ of the center control device 2c.
The data is temporarily stored in the memory 2c ₁ via c ₄ or in the database 2 b via the storage device interface 2 c ₅ . Note that the memory 2c ₂ above information (the final image to be displayed or audio output in each building, voice information) information other than stored. The memory 2c ₁ and the database 2b have areas according to the contents of information, that is, areas for wide area information, regional information, information unique to buildings, etc.
Each information from 2a will be stored again in the corresponding area. Since the information is once again stored in each area, the information once input is sent via the printer interface 2c ₉ by the operator of the display control center 2 issuing a command to the MPU 2c ₁₃ via the keyboard interface 2c _3. It is represented by printing, image, or sound on the printer 2d, on the display device 2e via the display interface 2c ₁₀ , or on the speaker 2f via the voice converting unit 2c ₁₁ and the amplifier 2c ₁₂ . The operator grasps the information content represented in this way, attaches a specific code for the information content to each of these information, and, according to the information content, the code of the building to which the information is sent ( The customer code) and the area code (district code) in which the building exists are assigned and stored in the corresponding area. As the customer code, for example, if the information provider 1 is the head office of a company having a branch network, and the information content is unique to the company, the code of the building of each branch becomes the customer code. Also, as a district code, a prefecture code or a municipal code corresponds to this, for example,
The district code is used to indicate the area where the earthquake occurred. In this case, the information content is, of course, the content of the earthquake.

The information stored in the memories 2c ₁ and 2c ₂ and the database 2b is sent to a predetermined building. Before this transmission, the display control center 2 performs the following processing. That is, the operator of the display control center 2 determines the information to be transmitted according to the specifications (for example, the number of characters that can be displayed, the number of screens, etc.) of the information to be transmitted at an appropriate time before or at the time of transmitting the information. While processing to match,
Display time, display frequency, voice interlocking, color designation, etc. are performed, and the designated contents are added to the information as a display designation code. The information processed in this way and with the display designation code added is
Under the control of MPU2c ₁₃ , the protocol conversion unit 2c ₆ , model
After being matched with the transmission code system of the communication line 5 via 2c ₇ and NCU 2c ₈ , it is sent to the terminal device of the target building. In the case of sending this information, image information, character information, and voice information are coded and sent as digital information in order to improve the transmission efficiency.However, for image information with a large amount of data, use a dedicated line such as using a dedicated line. Even if the operation is performed or the general public line is used, consideration should be given to the use of information other than the emergency information at night when the communication charge is cheap. In order to perform this automatically, a transmission line code for specifying the type of the communication line 5 and a transmission time code for specifying the transmission time should be added to the information in advance together with the customer code and the district code. It becomes possible.

The information processed as described above is sent to the terminal device of each target building at a predetermined time through the predetermined communication line 5 together with the above-mentioned display designation code. Since then,
The operation of each device of 2A ₁ will be described. The multifunction telephone 3A ₁₀ uses the information sent from the display control center 2 as it is for the terminal device 3A.

Here, an outline of the above operation when the building 3A ₁ is in the X region and the information displayed on the display unit 3A ₁₂₃ of the information output device 3A ₁₂ is a weather forecast will be described. Now, when the "tomorrow's weather forecast" of each region is provided from the information provider who provides the weather forecast, this is input to the information relay 2a,
The data format is converted into a data format that matches the data format of the remote display device of this embodiment and is temporarily stored in the memory 2c ₁ of the center control device 2c. Next, the operator of the display control center 2 stores the stored "tomorrow's weather forecast" of each region in the memory 2c.
_It takes out from ₁ and displays it on the display device 2c, attaches an information content code corresponding to "weather forecast" to all of them, attaches a district code for each local forecast, and reads "weather forecast" in the database 2b. Is stored in the area corresponding to.

Assuming that it is predetermined that the above-mentioned “weather forecast for tomorrow” will be transmitted to each building at night using a telephone line, the operator of the display control center 2 will send the information of each region at the time of transmission. "Tomorrow's weather forecast" is retrieved from the database 2b and displayed on the display device 2c, the content of the "tomorrow's weather forecast" is processed in consideration of the display capacity of the display unit in each building, and the display time, Display time, display count,
The display time interval and display mode (continuous display, blinking display, etc.) are determined, and a transmission command is issued with a code attached to each item. In response to this transmission command, the MPU 2c ₁₃ refers to the district code and transmits the "weather forecast for tomorrow" for each region to each building in each region. Therefore, the building 3A ₁ located in the X region will be sent the weather forecast for the X region on the next day (the present day if the delivery is after 0 o'clock at night) at night.

Terminal apparatus 3A ₁₁ buildings 3A ₁ is the X local weather forecast stores in the memory 3a ₁₁₄ of accessory encoding memory (display time, display time, display the number, code time interval, and display form) Store in 3a ₁₁₅ . Thereafter, the MPU 3a ₁₁₈ of the terminal device 3A ₁₁ constantly compares the clock time of the CPG 3a _{116 with} the display time. Thus, at the designated display time (for example, 7 o'clock), the MPU 3a ₁₁₈ outputs the weather forecast stored in the memory 3a ₁₁₄ and the display form code stored in the memory 3a ₁₁₅ to the information output device 3A ₁₂ .

The MPU 3a ₁₂₅ of the information output device 3A ₁₂ temporarily stores the information in the memory 3a ₁₂₂ and then inputs the information to the display control device 3a ₁₂₄ .
Although the display control unit 3a ₁₂₄ was to display the feature codes (e.g., continuous display) displayed on the display unit 3a ₁₂₃ the connexion weather forecast.
On the other hand, the MPU 3a ₁₁₈ of the terminal device 3A ₁₁ has a predetermined display time (for example, 1) according to the code stored in the memory 3a _115.
Min) and outputs a signal for stopping the display of weather forecast has passed information output apparatus 3A _12, MPU3a ₁₂₅ of the information output apparatus 3A ₁₂
Outputs an erasure command to the display control device 3a ₁₂₄ to erase the display of the weather forecast on the display unit 3a ₁₂₃ . Thereafter, the MP of the terminal device 3A ₁₁
U3a ₁₁₈ is stored in the memory 3a ₁₁₅ the display time (1 minute in the above example), impressions (e.g. 10 times), the time interval (e.g.
The display command signal is output to the information output device 3A ₁₂ according to each code of 15 minutes). By such an operation, the display unit 3a
_{In 123} , the weather forecast for the day in the X region will be automatically displayed every 15 minutes from 7:00 to 9:15 every 15 minutes.

Next, the operation of displaying information specific to this building 3A ₁ will be described. For example, when the peculiar information is the garbage collection of the building, a phrase such as “today's garbage collection date” is stored in advance at a predetermined address in a predetermined area of the terminal device 3a ₁₁₄ . On the day of the garbage collection day, the manager of the building 3A ₁ operates the keys of the keyboard of the multi-function telephone 3A _{10 in} the predetermined operation order, specifies the address where the above phrase is stored, and Command to display. As a result, the display of “Today's garbage collection date” is displayed in the same procedure as described above. The same applies to the display of other "unique information".
It can be displayed using ₁₀ . The "unique information" can be notified by voice.

The operation and the information of the present embodiment are the weather forecast and the specific operation example of the information peculiar to the building has been described above. By the way, the communication line 5 connecting the display control center 2 and each building has a limited capacity. Therefore,
If the number of buildings under the control of the display control center 2 increases, the amount of use of the communication line 5 also increases, and it takes a lot of time for transmission. In this case, another display control center 4 is installed as shown in FIG. 1, and the buildings 3A _{1 to} 3A _n are shared by the display control center 2 via the communication line 5, and the buildings 3B _{1 to} 3B. _m
The other display control center 4 shares the other information via the communication line 6. This solves the problem of the line capacity.

Since the information controlled by the display control center 2 is sent to the other display control center 4, the information repeater is not required, and the work load of the operator is reduced. If the information processed by the display control center 2 and the code attached to this information are sent to the other display control center 4, the other display control center 4 can automatically perform the subsequent operations. This can eliminate the need for an operator.

Next, a description will be given information inputting device using a multifunctional telephone 3A _10. Among the various types of information, information to be displayed from the building 3A ₁ to another building or from the building 3A ₁ to the building 3A ₁ itself (information specific to the building 3A ₁ previously stored in the memory 3a ₁₁₄₎ Is excluded). The multifunction phone 3a ₁₀ is also used in such cases. That is, when transmitting information from the building 3A _1, when an appropriate person, for example, the manager of the building 3A ₁ operates the keyboard of the multifunction telephone 3A ₁₀ to input the information, this information is temporarily stored in the terminal device 3A. ₁₁ is input to the memory ₁₁ via the communication interface 3a _117, and is stored in a designated area of one of the memories 3a ₁₁₄ and 3a ₁₁₅ of the MPU 3a ₁₁₈ . Here, if the information is information to be displayed on all the buildings including the building 3A ₁ or on the selected building, the stored information is sent from the terminal device 3A ₁₁ to the multifunction telephone 3A.
It is input to the center control device 2c of the display control center 2 via ₁₀ and the communication line 5. Subsequent operations are the same as those described above. In addition, information is information specific to the building 3A _1, if the notice or the like of the inspection date and time of, for example, of building 3A ₁ elevator,
This information is sent from the terminal device to the information output device 3A ₁₂ without being sent to the display control center 2, and the display unit 3a ₁₂₃
Is displayed on the screen. Even in this case, the information may be sent to the display control center 2 and then the information may be displayed on the display unit 3a ₁₂₃ by the above-mentioned operation.

As described above, in this embodiment, various types of information are arranged,
Since the information is sent to the selected building and the information output to the display unit is automatically controlled by the terminal device of each building, it is not necessary to have specialized personnel to display information on each building. In addition, much information can be easily and inexpensively displayed on each building. Also, the use of a multi-functional telephone allows the display of information specific to that building or the information from that building.
