Abstract

PURPOSE:To promptly recognize a normal transmission or an abnormal termination and to precisely attain a multiple-address transmission guarantee by informing a transmission operator of the result when a multiple-address transmission is terminated with voice through a line. CONSTITUTION:The system consists of a multiple address storage part 11, a communication control part 12, a communication result storage part 13, an electric voice signal storage part 14, an electric voice signal retrieving part 15, a voice signal sending control part 16, a telephone number recording part 17, a network control part 18 and a system control part 19. Here, when the multiple-address transmission is terminated, the transmission operator is informed of its result with voice through the line. Thus, the normal transmission or the abnormal termination is promptly found and the multiple-address transmission guarantee is precisely executed.

Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION Field of Industrial Application The present invention relates to a mechanism for sequentially broadcasting the transmission results of completed manuscript transmission using a line, and in particular, the present invention relates to a mechanism that uses a line to notify the transmission results of the completion of original transmission by broadcasting sequentially. This relates to a mechanism for notifying the transmission status by automatically sending the transmission to a specified destination.

Conventional technology Conventionally, in this type of facsimile system, if the transmitting operator leaves the area after the broadcast transmission is completed, he or she returns to the area to check whether the transmission was successful or not. This is a nuisance for the transmitting operator.

Problems to be Solved by the Invention In the sequential broadcast transmission using the conventional facsimile machine described above, it is difficult to confirm whether all transmissions have been completed normally, or to check where the destination is if there is a destination for which transmission has not been completed normally. There is a drawback that if you leave the place to confirm the situation, you have to come back to the transmitter and check the situation.

The present invention has been made in order to eliminate the above-mentioned drawbacks inherent in the conventional technology, and therefore, an object of the present invention is to notify the transmitting operator of the result by voice through the line when the broadcast transmission is completed. Therefore, it is an object of the present invention to provide a new facsimile system that can promptly recognize whether transmission has been normally completed or terminated abnormally, and can accurately guarantee the transmission of broadcasts.

Means for Solving the Problems In order to achieve the above object, the facsimile system according to the present invention includes a mechanism for storing the results of broadcast transmission for each communication, and a mechanism for converting audio signals into electrical signals. a mechanism for retrieving the electrical audio signal by searching the mechanism storing the electrical audio signal based on the stored transmission results, and transmitting the retrieved electrical audio signal to the line. A mechanism for storing a plurality of destinations as telephone numbers in advance, and a mechanism for transmitting content according to the transmission result as an audio signal to the stored telephone numbers. .

For example, ``All broadcast transmissions have now completed successfully.'' ” or a voice signal such as “The current broadcast transmission has successfully completed for three locations. The remaining two locations could not be transmitted.”

Embodiment Next, a preferred embodiment of the present invention will be specifically explained with reference to the drawings.

FIG. 1 is a system block diagram showing one embodiment of the present invention.

Referring to FIG. 1, the communication control unit 12 performs broadcast transmission for each destination stored in the broadcast destination storage unit 11.

Every time one transmission is completed, the communication control unit 12 sends the transmission result of the completed manuscript to the communication result storage unit 13, and the communication result storage unit 13 stores it.

The electrical audio storage unit 14 converts several types of audio signals that may be sent out into electrical signals and stores them.

Based on the communication results stored in the communication result storage section 13 described above, the electrical audio signal search section 15 detects the audio signal to be transmitted from the electrical audio storage section 14 and sends it to the audio signal transmission control section 16 .

The voice signal transmission control section 16 receives the voice signal sent from the electrical voice signal search section 15 after calling the corresponding dial number based on the voice signal destination telephone number stored in the telephone number recording section 17. is transmitted from the audio signal transmission control section 16.

The transmitted voice signal passes through the network control section 18 and is transmitted to the network side. Further, the entire system is controlled by a system control section 19.

As described in detail, according to the present invention, when broadcast transmission ends, the transmission operator is notified of the result by voice over the line, so that it can be quickly determined whether the transmission was normal or ended abnormally. , the effect of guaranteeing broadcast transmission can be obtained.
