Next, the operation for transmitting will be described.
First, the transmission original is set on the reading unit (2), and then the handset of the telephone (9) is picked up and the recipient is dialed. At this time, a detection output is generated from the hookup detection circuit (12) and is supplied to the control device (1). Therefore, the control device (1) that detected the hookup in step (S6)
By proceeding to step (S7) and checking the output of the reading unit (2), it is determined whether or not a document is set in the reading unit (2). Since the original has already been set, the control unit (1) subsequently proceeds to step (S8) to detect the preamble signal from the receiving side. At this point, the relay contact (8) has the other fixed contact (8c) (8 ').
It is switched to the c) side, and the preamble signal is supplied to the modem circuit (6) via the capacitors (10) (10 ') and the transformer (11). Therefore, the control device (1) which has detected the preamble signal in step (S8) changes the relay contact (8) to one fixed contact (8b) in step (S9).
Switching to the (8'b) side, the telephone lines (L1) and (L2) are connected to the modem circuit (6) via the transformer (7). Subsequently, the control unit (1) proceeds to step (S10) to control the reading unit (2) to read the original, and then performs transmission processing such as encoding and performs a telephone line (via the modem circuit (6)). L1) (L2). When the end of transmission is detected in step (S11), the control device (1) performs step (S).
12) controls the relay contact (8) and the other fixed contact (8)
c) Switch to (8'c) side and return to standby state. Thus, the transmission can be automatically started only by dialing the receiving side on the telephone (9).

As described above, in the facsimile apparatus of the present invention, the original is set at the time of transmission, the hook-up is performed, the dial is made, and when the preamble signal is transmitted from the receiving side device in response to this, the automatic transmission is performed. Since it can be started, it is easy to operate and is most suitable for general household use. Also, since transmission is started not on the basis of a single frequency signal such as a CED signal but on the detection of a preamble signal that is a continuous flag sequence, it prevents the occurrence of malfunctions caused by voice picked up by the handset during hookup. it can.
