Abstract

PURPOSE:To facilitate overseas communication by registering an international code consisting of an international telephone identification number added before a subscriber number among input addresses and a national number. CONSTITUTION:When a national telephone identification number 001 is inputted via ten keys 15 after push of a national code key 16, a number 001 is displayed on an LCD 14. Then a number 0011 is displayed on the LCD 14 with input of an American national number 1. If the displayed number is correct, this number is registered in a RAM 12 with push of a set key 25. Then the American national name label is stuck to one of keys 16 with which the registration is ended. In case a call is sent to a subscriber of an American domestic number XX...X, a key 16 having an American label name is pushed to display the number 0011 on the LCD14 and then sent to an address transmission circuit 17. Then the number XX...X is inputted via the keys 15 and the communication is possible to the American subscriber with push of a start key 24.

Description

[Detailed description of the invention] [Industrial application field] The present invention relates to a communication terminal device.

[Prior Art 1] Conventionally, one-touch dialing and speed dialing have been provided as address setting methods for communication terminal devices, and these are convenient address setting methods for parties with whom communication is frequently performed.

[Problems to be solved by the invention] However, when transmitting overseas using a communication terminal device,
When communicating with a person you do not communicate with often and who is not registered, even if you know the other party's domestic number, you do not know which number to call and it takes time to look up the number. There's a problem. Furthermore, in the above case, there is a problem in that after the call is completed, the user is concerned about whether or not the call was sent without error.

[Child role for solving problems] The present invention registers a country code consisting of an international telephone identification number and a country code to be added before the subscriber number in the input address, and It outputs the code with one touch.

[Function] The present invention registers a country code consisting of an international telephone identification number and a country code to be added before the subscriber number among the input addresses, and outputs the above code with a single touch. When sending a message overseas, even if you know the recipient's domestic number, you do not know which number to call, and it takes time to look up that number.

[Example] FIG. 1 is a block diagram showing one embodiment of the present invention.

In this embodiment, there is a CPU 10 that controls various operations such as addresses, a ROM II that stores the control program, a RAM 12 that stores various parameters and registration data, an interrupt circuit 13, and an L as a display.
CD (liquid crystal display device i!ri 14, numeric keypad 15 as a key input circuit, 1 country code key 16, LCD 14
Or an address sending circuit 17 that sends an address to the outside
and has.

The interrupt circuit 13 has a numeric keypad 15 and a country code key 16.
This is a circuit that controls the input using an interrupt method. In addition, R
AM12 is a backup memory.

The country code key 16 has the same input function as a conventional numeric keypad, etc. When there is an input, it is detected by the CPU10 via the interrupt circuit 13, the program in the ROM11 is started, and the data is stored in a predetermined area of the RAM12. Old address,
Alternatively, the address is read from the RAM 12 and sent to the address sending circuit 17. In addition,
The country code is composed of an international telephone identification number and a country code.

The CPU 10 and the RAM 12 are examples of country code registration means for registering a country code, which is composed of an international telephone identification Mfi and a country code, which are added before the subscriber number, in an input address. Further, the CPU 10 and the country code key 16 are an example of a country code one-touch output means that outputs the country code with one touch.

FIG. 2 is a diagram showing a part of the operation panel in the above embodiment.

This operation panel includes an LCD 14, numeric keys 15 and 1
A country code key 16, a stop key 23, a start key 24, a set key 25, and a clear key 26 are provided.

Next, the operation of the above embodiment will be explained.

Here, we will consider the case of registering the country code of the United States. Further, in the case of the above example, the country code is composed of the 1st international language identification number (001) and the country code (1).

First, press the country code key 16 (Sl). Since the country code of the United States corresponding to the country code key 16 is not registered (S2), the LCD 14 will be blank and the international dialing number ool (international call number) from Japan will be displayed. The user inputs the identification number (Identification number) using the numeric keypad 15 (S3), and the above-mentioned international shipping number 001 is displayed on the LCD l4.Next, the user inputs the country code l of the United States (S4), and the LCD 14 displays 0011. If the displayed number is correct, press the set key 25 (S5) to complete the registration. This address is similar to a one-touch key.

It is stored in RAM12.

The name of the country America is pasted on a label or the like to one of the country code keys 16 whose registration has been completed.

Next, if you want to send a message to the domestic number xxxxxxxxx in the United States, press the country code key that displays "America" among the country code keys 16. Since the country code for the United States is already registered (S2), The registration number is read out (S6), and 0011 is displayed on the LCD 14 (37).
, is sent to the address sending circuit 17 (Sa), and then using the numeric keypad 15, enter the national number XXXXXXX
By keying in x and pressing the start key 24, you can send the message to the other party in America. In this way, overseas transmissions can be made as easily as domestic transmissions.

The present invention is also applicable to all communication terminals such as facsimile machines, telephones, etc. that use a manual dialing method for communicating with overseas countries.

In the above embodiment, four country code keys 16 are provided, but instead of this, one overseas key is provided, and after that,
You may also use a numeric keypad or other functional keys to specify the destination country.

[Effects of the Invention] According to the present invention, when communicating with a person overseas, the name of the country and
This has the effect that you can easily communicate overseas as long as you know the domestic number.
