[Problem to be solved by the invention]

Since the conventional telephone number registration device is configured as described above, there is one abbreviated information corresponding to each one-touch dial key of one-touch/abbreviation key 2 and each abbreviated dial number when operating the abbreviated key. Only complete telephone numbers can be registered, and there is a limit to the number of telephone numbers that can be registered. Therefore, when a communication device such as a facsimile machine using such a telephone number registration device is shared by multiple departments or individuals, it is often necessary to register a complete telephone number. In cases where the parties to communicate with differ depending on each department or individual, business partners common to each department or individual, etc.
It is not necessary to preferentially register the complete phone number of the communication partner, which is the greatest common denominator, and when calling a communication partner who could not be registered, the complete phone number must be dialed in its entirety, making the calling operation complicated. Not only that, but extended information such as sender information can only be used by all departments or individuals sharing the communication device, and there are problems such as it is difficult to display the sender in a detailed manner. Ta.

This invention was made in order to solve the above-mentioned problems, and it is possible to register and select a complete telephone number independently for each department corresponding to each piece of shortened information, and furthermore, it is possible to register and select a complete telephone number independently for each department or department. The object of the present invention is to obtain a telephone number registration device that can add individual extended information for each individual.

[Means to solve the problem]

A telephone number registration device according to the present invention includes a removable memory card that stores a complete telephone number registered for abbreviated information and extended information such as caller information, and the memory card can be inserted through a card interface. If detected,
When registering, the complete phone number entered from the registration key is registered in the memory card storage area assigned to the shortened information from the one-touch/shortcut key, and when making a call, the full phone number entered from the registration key is registered in the memory card storage area assigned to the shortened information from the one-touch/shortcut key. - The complete telephone number read from the corresponding storage area based on the abbreviated information from the abbreviated key is transferred to the dialing circuit, and the extended information separately read from the memory card is transferred to the information addition circuit.

[Effect]

In the telephone number registration device of the present invention, when a memory card is inserted at the time of registration and a complete telephone number is input by operating the one-touch/shortcut key, the telephone number registration device will be able to input the shortened information from the one-touch/shortcut key on the memory card. The complete phone number will be written in the designated memory area, and when you make a call, insert the registered memory card and operate the one-touch/shortcut key. The complete telephone number is read from the storage area allocated to the information and sent to the dialing circuit to process the call, while the extended information from the memory card is read separately and added to the communication information. Sent to the communication line.

〔Example〕

An embodiment of the present invention will be described below with reference to the drawings. 1st

With d, you can register a different complete telephone number, such as "03-214-5164", depending on the circumstances of the department or individual using it.

Each of these memory cards 8a to 8d also stores extended information added to the image data.

Since this extended information can also be stored independently in each of the memory cards 8a to 8d, sender information etc. can be displayed in detail for each department or individual using the information.

Next, the operation when making a call will be explained. Here, the calling operation using the telephone number memory 1 is performed by the same process as in the conventional case.

Further, when one of the memory cards, for example 8a, is inserted at the time of making a call, the control circuit 5 detects this via the card interface 9 and removes the telephone number memory 1. Thereafter, when the one-touch dial key 21 of the one-touch φ shortening key 2, for example, is operated, the control circuit 5 that receives the one-touch shortening interface 10 accesses the memory card 8a via the card interface 9, The storage area allocated to the shortened information sent by the operation of this one-touch dial key 21,
The complete telephone number "03-591-6624" of the communication partner is read out and transferred to the dial circuit 4.

Dial circuit 4 is the complete phone number sent to you ``03-5''
91-6624'' to call the other party, and transfers it to the telephone data switching circuit 6.

At this time, the telephone/data switching circuit 6 is switched to the telephone function, and the transferred dial signal is therefore sent to the communication line γ.

When the other party's terminal responds and a link is established, the telephone-data switching circuit 6 is switched to a data communication function, and the image data read by the image sensor and compressed is sent to the communication line 7. At this time, extended information such as sender information indicating the department or individual using the memory card 3a stored in the memory card 3a is also read out and transferred to the information addition circuit 11, where it is added to this image data and connected to the communication line T. will be sent to.

The same applies when using other memory cards 8b to 8d. For example, when the memory card 8b is inserted and the same operation as described above is performed, the complete telephone number "07" is used.
8-984-66237 is read and dial circuit 4
Further, extended information such as caller information indicating the department or individual using the memory card 8b is also read out and transferred to the information addition circuit 11, where the image data is transferred to is added to the communication line I and sent to the communication line I.

Note that although the above embodiments are equipped with a telephone number memory, this telephone number memory may be omitted and the same effects as in the above embodiments can be achieved.

〔Effect of the invention〕

As described above, according to the present invention, each department, individual, etc. using a removable memory card can independently provide expanded information such as a complete telephone number and caller information associated with abbreviated information. The configuration is configured to store the phone number, read out the complete phone number corresponding to the inserted memory card by operating the one-touch/shortcut key, and read out the extended information. Since it is possible to make calls to different communication parties for each communication party and to add different sender information to the communication information, when a communication device using this telephone number registration device is shared by multiple departments or individuals, If this memory card is prepared for each department or individual, it will be possible to simplify the call operation most suitable for each department, and it will also be possible to display the caller in more detail.
