(3) Operation Next, the operation of the confirmation system 300 (confirmation terminal 1 and communication device 2) will be described with reference to FIGS. 3A to 3D, 4 and 5. FIG. In the following, an example will be described in which the confirmation terminal 1 (lobby intercom 10) directs two communication devices 2 (intercom main unit 20) to confirm the delivery of a delivery item. Also, one of the two communication devices 2 will be described as a communication device 2A and the other as a communication device 2B. Further, the management area 100 in which the communication device 2A is installed will be described as a "management area 100A" and the management area 100 in which the communication device 2B is installed as a "management area 100B".

3A shows an initial screen 131 displayed on the display unit 130 of the confirmation terminal 1. FIG. At a position near the top of the initial screen 131, an operation display section 131A for displaying an operation method is arranged. Further, in the initial screen 131, an image display section 131B for displaying an image captured by the imaging section 15 is arranged below the operation display section 131A and at a leftward position. In this embodiment, the image display section 131B displays a delivery agent (visitor P1) who has delivered items to the two management areas 100A and 100B. The visitor P1 performs a predetermined operation according to the operation display section 131A displayed on the display section 130 (step S1 in FIG. 5). Specifically, the visitor P1 presses the "*" button of the operation unit 14 twice, and then presses the call button. As a result, the display screen of the display unit 130 shifts from the initial screen 131 to the registration screen 132 (see FIG. 3B). If the call button is pressed after entering the room number using the numeric keys of the operation unit 14, the communication device 2 corresponding to the entered room number can be called (hereinafter referred to as "call mode").

The registration screen 132 is a screen for registering the video of the visitor P1. A registration display section 132A for displaying a registration method is arranged at a position on the right side of the registration screen 132 . An image display unit 132B for displaying an image captured by the imaging unit 15 is arranged at a position on the left side of the registration screen 132, similarly to the initial screen 131. FIG. The visitor P1 performs processing for registering the image displayed on the image display unit 132B according to the registration display unit 132A (step S2 in FIG. 5). Specifically, the visitor P1 presses the call button while his face is displayed on the image display section 132B. As a result, the image of the visitor P1 is registered in the memory of the terminal-side control section 12, for example. When the video of the visitor P1 is registered, the display screen of the display unit 130 shifts from the registration screen 132 to the input screen 133 (see FIG. 3C).

The input screen 133 is a screen for inputting the delivery destination of the item to be delivered. In this embodiment, eight delivery destinations can be entered on the input screen 133 as shown in FIG. 3C. Further, in this embodiment, as an example, the delivery destination information is the room number. Specifically, the visitor P1 inputs the room number using the numeric keypad of the operation unit 14, and presses the "*" button after inputting (step S3 in FIG. 5). As a result, the dwelling unit corresponding to the input room number is set as the delivery destination, and the next delivery destination can be input. After entering all delivery addresses, visitor P1 presses the call button. As a result, the image of the visitor P1 registered on the registration screen 132 and the confirmation information are transmitted to all the delivery destinations entered on the input screen 133 (step S4 in FIG. 5). In this embodiment, the image of the visitor P1 and the confirmation information are transmitted to the two management areas 100A and 100B.

On the other hand, in the two management areas 100A and 100B, a ringing tone (for example, "ding-pong") sounds through the speakers of the communication units of the communication devices 2A and 2B, and an answer screen 241 is displayed on the display unit 24 (Fig. 4). The reply screen 241 is, for example, a screen for replying to requests for deliveries. At the upper position of the answer screen 241, a notification display section 241A for notifying the visit of the delivery company is arranged. An image display section 241B for displaying an image of the visitor P1 from the confirmation terminal 1 is arranged below and to the left of the notification display section 241A on the answer screen 241 . A user (resident) of each management area 100 can know who the visitor P1 is by viewing the image displayed on the image display section 241B. Therefore, according to the present embodiment, security can be enhanced compared to the case where the image of the visitor P1 is not displayed on the image display section 241B. Three option display sections 241C to 241E that display options for answering are arranged below and to the right of the notification display section 241A on the answer screen 241. FIG. The option display section 241C displays options for requesting room delivery. The option display section 241D displays options when a home delivery box provided on the site of the housing complex is desired. The option display section 241E displays options when a call to a delivery company is desired.

In this embodiment, as an example, the numeric keypad "1" of the input unit 23 corresponds to the option display section 241C, the numeric keypad "2" corresponds to the option display section 241D, and the numeric keypad "3" corresponds to the option display section 241E. Yes. The user of the management area 100 presses the response button of the input unit 23 after selecting any one of "1" to "3" on the numeric keypad. As a result, the confirmation result (response result) from the management area 100 is transmitted from the communication device 2 to the confirmation terminal 1 (steps S5 and S6 in FIG. 5). In the example shown in FIG. 5, since the user of the management area 100A has selected one of the options, the confirmation result corresponding to the selected option is transmitted from the communication device 2A to the confirmation terminal 1. FIG. On the other hand, in the management area 100B, for example, since the user is absent, none of the options are selected for a certain period of time (for example, 30 seconds), and the confirmation result of "no answer" is sent from the communication device 2B to the confirmation terminal. 1. Here, if the confirmation result includes "no answer", the item to be delivered to the corresponding management area 100 may be placed in the delivery box if the box is vacant, or the corresponding management area 100 You may leave your absentee ballot in a mailbox, etc.

After a certain period of time (for example, 30 seconds) has passed, the confirmation screen 134 shown in FIG. 3D is displayed on the display unit 130 of the confirmation terminal 1 (step S7 in FIG. 5). The confirmation screen 134 is a screen for displaying confirmation results from each management area 100 . In the center of the confirmation screen 134, a confirmation display section 134A for displaying confirmation results from each management area 100 is arranged. Note that FIG. 3D shows a case where confirmation results from six management areas 100 out of eight management areas 100 are transmitted. Here, when confirmation results are transmitted from a plurality of management areas 100, it is preferable to display a list of confirmation results as shown in FIG. 3D. Visitor P1 can respond (delivery) according to the confirmation result (response result) displayed on confirmation display portion 134A. can. In addition, as shown in FIG. 3D, if the confirmation result includes delivery to the room (“visit”), the opening/closing member 9 must be unlockable so that the delivery to the room can be performed. It is preferable that the unlocking display portion 134B displaying is displayed. The opening/closing member (automatic door) 9 can be unlocked (opened) by pressing, for example, the "*" button while the unlock display portion 134B is displayed on the display portion 130. FIG. In other words, if the confirmation result includes a visit, the operation unit 14 receives a specific operation (pressing of the "*" button) by the visitor P1, thereby unlocking the opening/closing member 9 that opens/closes the entrance/exit of the facility 200. do.
