DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION [Industrial Application Field] The present invention accommodates a plurality of outside lines and extension terminals, and is provided in the extension terminal in correspondence with each of the plurality of outside lines, and wherein the plurality of outside lines are provided. And a key telephone apparatus provided with a plurality of display means provided for each of the plurality of selection means for displaying the state of the plurality of outside lines. It is.

2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, in a communication system accommodating a plurality of lines and terminals, when a line under communication is held or disconnected and a new incoming call is answered by the same terminal, the incoming call to be answered is In order to match the required communication attribute with the communication attribute of the terminal or the data adapter, the user changes the setting every time a response is made.

Here, the communication attributes include, for example, communication speed, stop bit, data bit length, bit format such as parity bit type, distinction between synchronous / asynchronous, character type, flow control information, voice / G3 FAX / G4 FAX / document information. And the like, such as a media type, and this information is an agreement of a communication format with a communication partner and, in some cases, a network that carries the information.

A data adapter is an adapter for a communication system such as a switching system to accommodate a data terminal device and transmit and receive data, and supports an automatic transmission / reception procedure such as V.25bis, X.21. In some cases, the communication procedure itself is not supported at all, merely to match the data terminal equipment to the modem pool in the system connected to the data terminal equipment through the interface port. Furthermore, a part that supports data communication as a part of the function of a mere stand-alone terminal device may be referred to as a data adapter.

[Problem to be Solved by the Invention] In the above conventional example, when the communication attribute of the terminal or the data adapter and the communication attribute of the incoming call are not matched,
A troublesome setting operation for matching is required, and there is a disadvantage that the possibility of a setting error or an operation error by the user increases, and a great deal of time and labor is required to start communication.

In addition, after responding to an incoming call at a terminal that cannot support the requested communication attribute, a wasteful operation of searching for and transferring a terminal having a communication attribute capable of responding to the incoming call within the same communication system is performed or transferred. However, there is a disadvantage that the call is disconnected by mistake because the call cannot be made.

Furthermore, from the integration of communication services such as ISDN and the compounding of terminals, it is necessary to handle calls with various communication attributes on the same line or channel, and to respond to incoming calls with various communication attributes. However, there is a disadvantage that the communication system becomes inconvenient and inconvenient for the user.

[Means for Solving the Problems] The present invention has been made for the purpose of solving the above problems, and has the following configuration as one means for solving the above problems.

That is, a plurality of outside lines and extension terminals are accommodated, and the extension terminal is provided for each of the plurality of outside lines, and a plurality of selection means for selecting each of the plurality of outside lines, and the plurality of selection lines A key telephone device provided with a plurality of display means for displaying the status of the plurality of external lines, the communication means for receiving a call transmitted from the network via the external line. Identification means for identifying an attribute, storage means for storing a communication attribute of the extension terminal,
When the communication attributes of the incoming call and the extension terminal match, the plurality of display units perform a first display indicating that there is an available call on the plurality of external lines, and the incoming call and the Control means is provided for controlling the plurality of display means to perform a second display different from the first display when the communication attributes of the extension terminals do not match.

[Operation] In the above configuration, the communication attribute of the incoming call is identified by the signal indicating the incoming call sent from the network via the outside line, and if the communication attribute of the incoming call matches the communication attribute of the extension terminal, a plurality of display means are displayed. Performs a first display indicating that there is an incoming call that can be answered on the outside line, and if the communication attributes of the incoming call and the extension terminal do not match, a plurality of display means are different from the first display. The display can be controlled so that the user can easily understand whether the user should respond to the incoming call.

Next, the processing procedure of the call by the CPU of the communication system according to the present embodiment will be described with reference to FIGS. 7A, 7B, 7C, and 7D.
This will be described with reference to the flowchart shown in the figure. In the following description, a terminal refers to both a dedicated button telephone and a data adapter telephone unless otherwise specified.

In step S1 of FIG. 7A, the ISDN interface 5
Based on the call setting message received from the DN network 14 via the DSU 15, it is determined whether there is an incoming call to the communication system of this embodiment. When an incoming call is detected, in step S2, the CPU 1 sets the information of the incoming call in the call information holding memory, and confirms the possibility of the communication as to whether or not there is a terminal in the communication system that is allowable in the communication attribute of the incoming call. Perform Specifically, the fifth
It is confirmed whether the incoming call can be matched with the terminal attribute classes 1 to 3 shown in the figure. For example, as a transmission capability information element (which may be a lower layer compatibility information element),
Unlimited transfer capability Digital, asynchronous 9600 bps, stop bit 1 bit, data bit length 8 bits, no parity, speed matching V.110 is specified by the calling side. Although the request is permitted, the call is not accepted if G4FAX communication is specified, despite the fact that the subaddress 1235 specifies the data adapter telephone 10.

As a result of confirming the communication possibility, if it is determined that there is no terminal capable of matching the communication attribute with the incoming call and communication is impossible, in step S3 a call is received by a release completion message accompanied by a reason display and terminal attribute mismatch. The call is denied, the call information holding memory is released, and the process ends.

However, if it is determined in step S2 that there is a terminal capable of accepting the communication attribute of the incoming call, the process proceeds to step S4, and for the acceptable terminal, a lighting pattern (indicating that an incoming line LED is being received). (Fast blinking green), and for other unacceptable terminals, the lighting pattern during communication with other terminals (red lighting). Then, in step S5, the states of all the terminals that can be tolerated are searched, and the process branches according to the states.

For the processing for an empty terminal, refer to the steps in FIG. 7B.
In step S70, a ring tone is sounded, and in steps S71 and S72, the response of the called terminal and the termination of the incoming call due to abandonment of the calling side are monitored. If the called terminal (called terminal) responds before the incoming call stops, the process proceeds to step S75, a response message is sent to the ISDN network, and a communication path is connected in response to the incoming call.
In the next step S76, the ring tone is stopped.

Next, in step S77, the external line LED of the responding terminal is set to green light indicating that the own terminal is communicating, and the external line LED of another terminal is set to red light indicating that the other terminal is communicating. Set. However, if the incoming call stops before answering, the ringtone stops in step S73, and in step S74, the blinking or lit LED is turned off in response to the incoming call,
The terminal, the interface, and the call information holding memory are released to be empty, and the process ends.

In step S78, the input of the hold key in the terminal in the communication state is monitored. If there is a key input, the process proceeds to step S79. If there is no key input, the end of the communication is monitored in step S91. In step S79, the call in communication is suspended, and the call information holding memory corresponding to the suspension is set. And
In step S80, the outside line LED of the held call is set to a slow blinking green for the terminal that has held, and a slow blinking red or lit red for the other terminals according to the communication attribute of the terminal. . Further, in step S81, the communication attributes of the held call are displayed on the holding terminal.

In step S82, input of an external line key is monitored, and step S82 is performed.
At 83, it is determined whether it is an external key corresponding to the held call. If the result of the determination is that the outside line key corresponding to the held call has been input, it is determined in step S84 whether the terminal responding to the held outside line matches the communication attribute of the held call. If they match, a connection is made between the terminal and the held call in step S89,
If not, in step S85, the communication attribute of the terminal is set to match the communication attribute of the held call.

Next, in step S86, a display indicating that the communication attribute of the terminal has changed and a tone are sounded, and in step S87, the terminal and the held call are connected. Then, in the following step S88, the display and tone stop processing executed in the previous step S86 is performed, and in step S90, the corresponding outside line LED of the hold response terminal is turned on in green, which means that the self-terminal communication is being performed, and the other is turned on. Terminal LED
Is set to light red, and the process returns to step S78 again.

On the other hand, if it is determined in step S5 in FIG. 7A that the terminal is communicating, a ringing tone is transmitted to the receiving terminal in step S13, and information on the calling side (caller number, communication speed) , Bit format, etc.) (display example of FIG. 6 (a)). Therefore, in step S14, the switching key 26
As a result of monitoring the press of the incoming call outside line key 24 while the LED is blinking, there is no key press, and furthermore, if the stop of the incoming call due to the abandonment of the calling side is monitored in step S15 and the stop of the incoming call is recognized, In the following step S16, the terminal stops ringing during communication,
Clear the display. Next, in step S17, the external line LED that has been lit in response to the incoming call is turned off, the call information holding memory is released, and the process is terminated.

If it is detected in step S14 that the incoming call external line key 24 is blinking while the LED is blinking following the switch key 26, the process proceeds to step S18.
The call currently in communication is put on hold, the information of the call is set in the call information holding memory, and the corresponding external line LED is turned on and off in green at step S19, indicating that the terminal is on hold. Then, in step S20, the communication attributes (communication formats such as communication speed, number of stop bits, data bit length, parity information, etc.) requested by the calling side and included in the call setting message at the time of incoming call are set in the called terminal. It is determined whether the communication attribute can be matched with the communication attribute by comparing the call information holding memory with the extension setting memory.

As a result of the above comparison, if they are consistent, step S21
To stop the ringing tone during communication, and clear the display section in step S22. Then, in the next step S23, a response message to the incoming call is sent to the ISDN network to complete the response to the incoming call, the communication path of the communication system is connected, and the call information holding memory is set to a communicating state.

However, if it is determined in step S20 that there is no match (for example, the current setting of the data adapter telephone 10 is 1200 bps, one stop bit, seven data bits, and even parity as shown in FIG. 3C). When set, the incoming call is specified as 9600 bps, 1 stop bit, 8 bit data bit, and no parity is specified. In step S24, the receiving terminal (in this case,
(The terminal is limited to the data adapter telephone.) The setting is automatically reconfigured according to the incoming call, and the extension setting memory is automatically rewritten. Also, in step S25, the terminal sounds a tone to notify the user that the communication format has changed, and the changed communication format is displayed on the display unit (see FIG. 6 (e)). Then, step S26
Sends a response message for the incoming call to the ISDN network to complete the response to the incoming call, and connects the communication path of the communication system. In step S27, the tone ringing in step S25 is stopped, the display is cleared, and the call information holding memory is set to a communicating state.

In FIG. 7C, in step S28, the external line LED corresponding to the communication of the communicating terminal is lit in green to indicate that the own terminal is communicating, and the corresponding LED of the other terminal is changed to another. Set to red lighting, which is the terminal communication state. In the following step S29, information (communication format) relating to the call in progress and the held call is displayed for the data adapter telephone in communication (see FIG. 6 (c)).

In steps S30 to S33, the switching key 26, the disconnection of the held call, the disconnection of the call during communication, and the disconnection of the call on the own terminal side (on-hook for voice communication, data key for data communication). Pressing will disconnect the call). If the input of the switching key 26 is detected in step S30, the process proceeds to step S34 in FIG. 7D to suspend the call during communication, sets the information in the call information holding memory, and proceeds to step S34.
In S35, the LED of the corresponding external line key is set to a state indicating that the self key is on hold, that is, the LED is slowly flashing green.

In step S36 (see FIG. 7D), the communication attribute in the call information holding memory of the call for which the switching request has been made, that is, the call that has been put on hold in step S30 (FIG. 7C), and the switching operation are performed. Check if the communication attributes in the extension setting memory of the data adapter telephone match. If the match is confirmed, the hold call with the switching request is connected in step S37, the content of the call information holding memory of the connected hold call is set to the communicating state, and the process returns to step S28 in FIG. 7C again. .

However, if it is determined in step S36 of FIG. 7D that they do not match, in step S38, the communication attribute of the terminal (data adapter telephone) that performed the switching operation is set to the communication attribute set in the call information holding memory. Set to match,
The contents of the extension setting memory are also rewritten, and in the next step S39, a tone for notifying that the communication attribute has changed is sounded, and a display indicating the communication attribute is displayed (see FIG. 6 (e)). Then, in step S40, the held call with the switching request is connected, the contents of the call information holding memory of the connected held call are changed to the communicating state, and the process proceeds to step S41 to stop the tone indicating that the communication attribute has changed. , The display is also cleared, and the process returns to S28 in FIG. 7C.

If it is detected in step S31 in FIG. 7C that the held call has been disconnected by the other party, the process proceeds to step S42 in FIG. 7D, in which the call information holding memory of the disconnected held call is released, and the LED blinking as the held call is displayed. Turn off the light. And step S
In step S43, a tone that indicates that the held call has been disconnected is sounded, in step S44, the display of the held call is cleared, and in step S45, the tone that indicates that the held call has been disconnected is stopped. The process ends.

In FIG. 7C, if disconnection by the communicating party is detected in step S32, the flow advances to step S62 to sound a tone indicating that the other party has disconnected, and step S6 is performed.
In step 3, the terminal is monitored for disconnection due to disconnection of the terminal (on-hook in the case of voice communication, pressing of the data key 25 in the case of data communication). If the disconnection of the own terminal is detected in the step S63, the step S62 is executed in a step S64.
Stop the ringing tone and clear the call display during communication. Then, in step S47, a process of releasing the call information holding memory of the disconnected call is performed.

In step S33, if disconnection by its own terminal (on-hook in the case of voice communication, input of the data key 25 in the case of data communication) is detected, in step S46 the call information holding memory of the call being communicated is released, The disconnection release processing for the outside line is performed, and in step S47, the LED corresponding to the outside line of the disconnected call is turned off. Also, in step S48, the terminal of the external line key corresponding to the call that was put on hold is set to the self-holding state (slow blinking green) as it is, and the other held calls can be tolerated. At the same time, the other devices will be put on hold (slow flashing red) for idle devices,
If the terminal is not acceptable, the terminal is in a state of communicating with another terminal (lit in red).

In step S49, an indication that there is a call on hold and information on the held call such as communication attributes are displayed, and in step S50, a tone for informing that there is a call on hold is sounded.
Then, in steps S51 and S52, the hold response (pressing the external key of the held call after the off-hook in the case of voice communication, pressing the data key 25 and the external key of the held call in the case of data communication).
When the disconnection of the call on hold is detected by the other party in step S52, the tone is stopped in step S60 and the display is cleared. Also, follow step S6
In 1, the LED of the disconnected call is turned off, the call information holding memory of the held call is released, and the process is terminated.

If a hold response is detected in step S51, step S53
In the communication attributes of the call information holding memory of the held call,
Check whether the communication attributes in the extension setting memory of the data adapter telephone that performed the hold response operation match. If the matching is confirmed in step S53, the hold call with the hold response is connected in step S54, and the corresponding external line key LED is turned on in step S59, and the data adapter telephone which is in communication is in the state of being in communication ( The other terminals are set to a state in which other terminals are communicating (lit in red), and the call information holding memory of the connected held call is set to a communicating state, and the other terminal is set to the 7B.
The process returns to step S78.

However, if it is determined in step S53 that they do not match, in step S55 the communication attributes of the data adapter telephone are set so as to match the communication attributes set in the call information holding memory, and the extension setting memory is also rewritten. Then, in step S56, a tone is sounded to indicate that the communication attribute has changed, and a tone is displayed (see FIG. 6 (e)). Also, in step S57, the call information holding memory of the held call is set to the communicating state, and the held call with the hold response request is connected.In step S58, the fact that the communication attribute has been changed in step S56 is notified. Stops the tone that is ringing and clears the display.

As described above, according to the present embodiment, when a terminal connected to the communication system holds or disconnects a call in communication and then performs communication with another incoming call at the same terminal, the terminal simultaneously receives an incoming response. Since the communication attributes of the incoming call and the terminal are matched, the user does not need to be aware of the matching, and the operation for matching, the useless call transfer operation, and the artificial error for the incoming call are not performed. There is an effect that answering, erroneous disconnection, and the like can be avoided, and a response time to an incoming call can be reduced.

In addition, the call information stored in the communication system, the communication attributes of the terminal, and the like are displayed on the display of the terminal that performed the operation each time an incoming call is answered or held, so that the communication attributes of the terminal and the incoming call are simply displayed. In addition to matching, specific communication attributes can be visually confirmed, and there is an effect that mutual communication based on matching of communication attributes becomes more reliable.

The above embodiment is not limited to the display pattern of the LED display corresponding to the outside line key as the indication of whether or not the terminal matches the communication attribute of the incoming call. Multiple tones, LE corresponding to attributes
You may make it distinguishable by the color of D or a voice message.

In addition, information elements (transmission capability, low-layer compatibility, high-layer compatibility, etc.) included in ISDN messages were used as means for recognizing the communication attributes of incoming calls and held calls. A unique registration method may be adopted.

Furthermore, in the above-described embodiment, the CPU that controls the entire communication system checks and sets the consistency of the communication attribute. However, the data adapter telephone receives the control from the CPU to check the consistency of the communication attribute and perform the setting. The setting may be performed.

In this embodiment, the communication attribute of the data adapter telephone is set to match the incoming call or the held call only when the incoming call or the held call does not match the communication attribute being set. If it is determined that the communication attribute of the incoming call or the held call is within the allowable range for changing the data adapter telephone without determining the state of the communication attribute, the state of the incoming call or the held call is unconditionally determined. You may set so that it may correspond to a communication attribute.

[Effects of the Invention] As described above, according to the present invention, the communication attribute of an incoming call is identified by a signal indicating an incoming call transmitted from a network via an external line, and the communication attribute of the incoming call matches that of the extension terminal. A plurality of display means perform a first display indicating that there is an available incoming call on a plurality of external lines. If the communication attributes of the incoming call and the extension terminal do not match, the plurality of display means display the first Can be controlled to perform a second display different from the display of the user, and it is possible to inform the user in an easy-to-understand manner whether or not the user should respond to the incoming call.
