Abstract

PURPOSE:To send a message to plural called terminal equipments easily in an optional time by sending the message to the called terminal equipment set at a setting time from a multi-function telephone set. CONSTITUTION:A multi-function telephone set 22 having a voice storage section 23, a call instruction receiver 24, an automatic dial section 25, and a voice sending section 26, and a general telephone set 27 are connected and accommodated to a main switch 10 via interface circuits 20, 21. A central processing unit 30 is connected to the main switch 10, the interface circuits 20, 21, a clock device 40 and a main storage device 50 to apply the sequence control in an automatic exchange. A called extension number and a call time are registered in the automatic exchange from the caller side multi-function telephone set 22 and the message stored in advance is sent automatically to the called terminal equipment from the other function telephone set 22 receiving a call instruction from the automatic exchange at the call time. Thus, the message is sent accurately to the opposite party from the caller without any troublesome operation.

Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] [Field of Industrial Application] The present invention relates to an automatic message sending system in an automatic exchange, and in particular, a method for automatically sending a message from a multi-function telephone to a set called terminal at a set time. This invention relates to an automatic message sending method.

[Conventional technology]

Conventionally, in an automatic exchange, in order for a certain terminal to send a message at a fixed time, the terminal was equipped with a timer to monitor the time, and the terminal side controlled the sending time.

[Problem to be solved by the invention]

In the conventional message sending system described above, settings such as the called terminal extension number 9 and call origination time are set and controlled on the calling terminal side, so the number of data that can be set is limited. Therefore, there is a drawback that it is difficult to send messages to multiple called terminals at arbitrary times.

[Means to solve the problem]

The automatic message sending system of the present invention provides an automatic switching system that accommodates multi-function telephones via an interface circuit, wherein the multi-function telephone has a voice storage section, an automatic call origination section,
The automatic exchange includes a calling command receiving section and a voice sending section, and the automatic switching system includes a clock device that sends time information to a central control unit, a set calling terminal extension number, a called terminal extension number, and the multifunction telephone. and a storage area for storing each piece of information regarding the automatic call origination time.

〔Example〕

Next, the present invention will be explained with reference to the drawings.

FIG. 1 is a block diagram of one embodiment of the automatic message sending system of the present invention.

Voice storage unit 231 Calling command receiving device 24. Automatic calling section 2
5. A multifunction telephone 22 having a voice transmitter 26 and a general telephone 27 are each connected to and accommodated in the main switch 10 via an interface circuit 20.21. The central control device 30 includes the main switch 10 and the interface circuit 20.2.
1. It is connected to the clock device 40 and the main storage device 50, and manages sequence control within the automatic exchange.

Next, FIG. 2 is a diagram showing an example of the storage contents of the main storage device in FIG. Area 521 has a calling time storage area 53. Further, FIG. 3 is a diagram showing an example of the dialing order of information to be set.

Next, the operation of this embodiment will be explained with reference to FIGS. 1 to 3.

First, if you want to store a message in the voice storage section 23 of the multi-function telephone 22, press the voice storage function button (not shown) on the multi-function telephone 22.
3 is in the enabled state.

Then, the setter inputs an arbitrary message into the voice storage section 23 and sets it. When this message setting is completed, press the voice storage function button again to complete the voice storage.

Next, when the function telephone 22 of the calling terminal (extension number is "123") sets the called terminal and calling time for automatic message transmission, the multifunction telephone 22 sets automatic message transmission. Make a call by dialing as much as possible. This is notified to the central MATH device 30 via the interface circuit 20. Thereafter, when the called terminal extension number and the calling time are dialed according to the predetermined additional dialing format as shown in FIG. This data is stored and registered in the calling time storage area 53.

Next, the automatic message sending operation from the multifunction telephone 22 will be explained. The central control device 30 constantly monitors the current time from the clock device 240 and the stored contents of the call time storage area 53 in the storage device 50, and when both times are, for example, 17
:35, the central control unit 30 uses the interface circuit 21 to confirm whether the general telephone 27 of the called terminal is in a busy state. If this is busy, wait until it becomes free. When the general charger 27 becomes vacant, the central control unit 30 sends the called extension number r345 to the multifunction telephone 22 via the interface circuit 20, which is preset and registered in the memory address "1" of the main storage device 50.
A call command is sent to the general charger 27 to make a call. In the multi-function telephone 22, this calling command is received by the calling command receiving device 24, and the automatic calling unit 25 is used to make the call. Set up a link and call a regular telephone 27
When the called party goes off-hook, the multifunction telephone 2
2, the message stored in the voice storage section 23 is sent to the voice transmission section 26.2. Interface circuit 20. Main switch 10. General telephone 2 via interface circuit 21
Send to 7.

Next, when the time reaches 17:36 and 17:37, the central control unit 30 moves to the memory address r of the main storage device 50, respectively.
2", '3J's called extension number "867J, r239" is sent to the multifunction telephone 22, so a message is automatically sent to the designated called terminal in the same way. .

It goes without saying that when setting and registering the call origination time in the main storage device 50, the call origination time is set so as not to overlap with that of other called terminals.

〔Effect of the invention〕

As explained above, in the present invention, by registering the called extension number and the time of call from the calling party's multi-function telephone in the automatic exchange, the caller receives a call command from the automatic exchange at the time of the call. Since pre-stored messages are automatically sent from the multifunctional telephone to the registered called terminal, there is an effect that the caller can accurately transmit the message to the other party without much effort.
