〔Example〕

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

FIG. 2 is a block diagram showing the circuit configuration of an embodiment of the present invention.

In the same figure, a line terminal 2 to which a telephone line (hereinafter referred to as line vA) 1 is connected includes a hook switch H3' and a relay SP.
Communication circuit (TKC) 3 via a parallel circuit with contact sp
is connected to the dial signal sending circuit (DS
S) 4 and a monitor speaker circuit (SPC) 5 are connected in parallel, and when off-hook, the communication circuit 3
is connected to line 1, thereby opening a DC loop and seizing line 1. Therefore, the dial signal sending circuit 4 can freely send dial signals, and depending on the response from the other party, the dial signal can be sent by the handset 6. A call is to be made.

In addition, a processor (CPU) such as a microprocessor 7
A fixed memory (ROM) 8 and a variable memory (RAM) 9 are connected to this.
Dial key (DK) 10, speaker key (SPK) 1
2 and hook switch H32 are given. In response to these outputs, the CPU 7 executes instructions in the ROM 8, makes control decisions while accessing predetermined data to the RAM 9, and controls the dial signal generation circuit (D
SG)13. Speaker circuit 5. It controls the relay sp and controls the lighting of the speaker indicator light (SPL) 14 when the speaker circuit 5 is in an operating state.

Therefore, after going off-hook, dial key 10
, the CPU 7 controls the dial signal generation circuit 13 accordingly, so that a dial signal in the form of a composite audio frequency signal or a pulse signal is sent out via the dial signal sending circuit 4, resulting in off-hook dialing. Manual dialing is performed depending on the mode.

On the other hand, if the speaker key 12 is operated without going off-hook, the CPU 7 accordingly drives the relay SP, puts the speaker circuit 5 into the operating state, and lights up the speaker indicator light 14, so the contact point SP The DC loop is closed via the speaker 15, on-hook monitoring is enabled by the speaker 15, the on-hook dial mode is set, and manual dialing is performed using the dial key 10 in the same manner as described above.

In addition, in this example, the dial key 10 is used when the dial key 10 functions as an automatic dial key as described later.
A memory area EM having an address corresponding to the input is provided in the RAM 9, and a plurality of dial destinations are stored in this memory area EM. Also, by operating the registration key and dial key 10 (not shown in the figure), multiple dial destinations are registered in the same manner as the registration of speed dial numbers, and the multiple dial destinations are stored in the address corresponding to the dial key 10. .

FIG. 1 is a functional logic diagram of this embodiment. During CPUV, hook inch input detection means 31, speaker key input detection means 32, dial key input detection means 33, call mode determination means 34, dial control means 35, and A dial driving means 36 is configured, and the output of the system data setting means 37 is inputted to the dial control means 35.

In the same figure, hook switch H32 due to off-hook
on or the operation of the speaker key 12 is detected by the hook switch input detection means 31 or the speaker key input detection means 3.
2 is detected, the transmission mode determination means 34 determines the off-footer dial mode according to the detection output of the hook switch input detection means 31, and similarly determines the on-hook dial mode depending on the detection output of the speaker key input detection means 32. A judgment is made and the judgment result is sent to the dial control means 3.
5, and also sends it out as a control signal SC to each section that requires it.

The dial control means 35 is a system data setting means 37.
For example, the dial key 10 is set as the following three types of operation keys. In other words, the dial control means 35 controls the key input of the dial key 10 when the mode is set by the system data setting means 37 to be "0", if the manual dial key is "1", or if the automatic dial key is "2" in the off-hook dial mode. In this case, dial key 10 is controlled as an automatic dial key during on-hook dial mode.

Next, when the dial key 10 is operated at the time of making a call, this is detected by the dial key input detection means 33, and the dial control means 35 is activated in response to this detection output and a signal indicating the judgment result from the calling mode judgment main stage 34. performs the dialing process as follows according to the above system settings.

That is, the dial control means 35 uses the manual dial key (
If the system is set to "0" above, the dial key input from the dial key input detection means 33 is treated as a normal manual dial key input regardless of the determination result from the calling mode determining means 34. In response to this key input, the dial driving means 36 controls the dial signal generating circuit 13 to perform manual dialing.

In addition, if the dial control means 35 is set to the automatic dial key (in the case of "1" above) when the dial control means 35 is in the off-hook dialing mode, only when the determination result from the calling mode determining means 34 is the off-hook dialing mode. , the dial key input from the dial key input detecting means 33 is treated as an automatic dial key input, and in the case of other transmission modes, the dial key input is treated as a manual dial key input. That is, when the determination result from the transmission mode determination means 34 is the off-footer dial transmission mode, the dial destination number is selected from the memory area EM in the RAM 9 according to the key input from the dial key input detection means 33, The dial drive means 36 controls the dial signal generation circuit 13 in accordance with the selected dial destination number to perform automatic dialing.

Further, if the dial control means 35 is system-set to the automatic dial key (in the case of "2" above) during on-hook dialing, only when the determination result from the calling mode determining means 34 is the on-hook dialing mode.
The dial key input from the dial key input detecting means 33 is treated as an automatic dial key input, and in other transmission modes, the dial key input is treated as a manual dial key input. When the key input from the dial key input detecting means 33 is handled as an automatic dial key input, automatic dialing is performed as described above.

In such a configuration, the operation of this embodiment is explained in the third section.
This will be explained below with reference to the flowchart shown in the figure.

In the figure, first, it is determined whether or not the speaker key 12 has been operated (step 301).
If the speaker key 12 is not operated, an on-hook dial mode flag is set (step 302), and if the speaker key 12 is not operated, it is further determined whether the hand centro is lifted and is in an off-hook state. Ru.

If the device is not in the off-hook state, the process returns to step 301 and repeats the same process, and if the device is in the off-hook state, the process proceeds to the next step (step 303).

Next, it is determined whether or not the dial key 10 has been operated (step 304), and if the dial key 10 has been operated, whether or not the system setting by the system data setting means 37 is the aforementioned setting "0" is determined. (Step 305). If the result of this determination is YES, the key input from the dial key 10 is treated as a manual dial key input, and manual dial origination processing is executed (step 306). Also, if the judgment result is NO,
Furthermore, it is determined whether the system setting is the aforementioned setting "1" (step 307). This judgment result is YES
If so, then it is determined whether the current mote is in on-hook dialing mode (step 308). If the result of this judgment is the on-hook dialing mode, the process moves to step 306 and executes manual dialing processing,
Furthermore, if the determination result is that the mode is not on-hook dialing, automatic dialing processing is executed (step 309).
).

Further, the determination result in step 307 is N.

, the system setting is not "0", and
Since it is not "1", it is determined that the system setting is the aforementioned setting "2", and it is subsequently determined whether the current mode is the on-hook dial mode (step 310
). If it is not the on-hook dial mode, execute the manual dialing process in step 306, and if it is the on-hook dial mode, execute the manual dialing process in step 309.
Executes automatic dialing process.

When the manual dialing process in step 306 or the automatic dialing process in step 309 is completed, it is then determined whether the call has ended (step 3
11) When the call ends, recovery processing (step 312)
is performed and the process ends.

Note that the system data setting means in the above embodiment may be configured with a switch, and although the above embodiment has been explained using a single telephone, it is not limited to this; for example,
A button telephone device may also be used, and the same effect as the above embodiment can be achieved.

〔Effect of the invention〕
