Abstract

PURPOSE:To improve the operation of the system by switching a voice transmission reception function and a picture transmission reception function at a receiver side via a telephone line from a caller side. CONSTITUTION:When a facsimile terminal equipment 1 is selected as a caller party and a facsimile terminal equipment 2 is selected as a called party for the picture communication, at first, a changeover circuit 14 is switched to the position of a picture transmission reception circuit 12 with a switching signal from a switching signal transmission reception circuit 15 and the same switching signal is sent to the facsimile terminal equipment 2 via a main control circuit 13 and a telephone line 3. The signal is received by a switching signal transmission reception circuit 25 via the main control circuit 23 in the facsimile terminal equipment 2 and a changeover circuit 24 is switched to the position of a picture transmission reception circuit 22. Then the picture signal is sent from the picture transmission reception circuit 12 to the facsimile terminal equipment 2 and received by the picture transmission reception circuit 22.

In the conventional voice/image communication system described above, if the facsimile terminal on the receiving side is switched to the voice sending/receiving function side, it is impossible to send or receive images from the facsimile terminal on the calling side, and vice versa. If the switch is set to the image sending/receiving function side, voice sending/receiving will not be possible from the facsimile terminal on the calling side.
The disadvantage is that the purpose of the sender cannot be achieved.
