This will be explained using FIGS. Signal S input from the audio input device 7a and passed through the amplification section 7b and filter section 7C
igl is converted from an analog signal to a digital signal by the A/D converter 7d, but this involves sampling (hereinafter referred to as sampling) the audio signal Sigl, which is an analog signal.
It is performed at predetermined minute time intervals dt based on a certain quantization unit (a minute voltage corresponding to 1 bit I~), and the voltage value, which is the sampled sound pressure level, is converted into a digital signal (
For example, this can be achieved by converting the maximum value to 8 bits (1~). That is, the signal Sig2 of sampling number 1 is converted into a numerical value obtained by digitizing the sound pressure voltage V1. The signals digitized in this manner are sent one after another to the signal processing device 7e, where they are subjected to information compression processing. In this information compression process, the difference value dn between the previously sent signal and the current signal is

In order to realize such processing, there is an IC such as MSN6258 manufactured by Oki Electric Co., Ltd. that embodies the circuit of block 7p in FIG. 2.

Next, the process of adding audio information to general document information will be explained using FIGS. 8 and 9. When creating a new document or editing a document using document information stored in the external storage device 5, a voice input mode is input from the input device 2 to input voice information to the document information. If there is, it will move to audio editing mode (step 8a).
), the input position is designated with the cursor (indicating the document input position and editing processing position) on the display device @1, and a process of storing the position is executed (step 8b). The input position at this time is specified by having the operator move the cursor by operating the cursor keys.

Next, the system waits for the voice recording start execution key (step 8c), and when the voice recording start execution key is input, a process of storing information from the voice processing device 7 in the storage device 6 is executed (step 8d). It monitors whether the audio input exceeds a certain fixed time or whether there is a recording end key input (step 8e), and then monitors the audio playback execution key input (step 8f), and if there is an audio playback execution key input. If so, a process of reproducing the audio information in the storage device 6 via the audio processing device 7 is executed (step 8g).

The operator determines whether or not to re-record based on the state of the reproduced audio, and detects the re-recording execution key input (step 8h).
), to re-record, re-execute the process from step 8c. When the recording end key is input (step 81), a voice insertion symbol is added to the document information corresponding to the position displayed by the cursor on the display device 1, and the document information is stored in the storage device 6 (step 8j). At this time, it is determined whether or not there is a request to attach a password to the voice information added to the document information (step 9a), and if a password is attached, the input device 2
The password from =16 is stored in the storage device 6 as attribute information of the stored audio information (step 9b).

Next, it is determined whether there is a request to edit the input audio information (delete unnecessary audio information, etc.) (step 9c), and when this editing work request is instructed from the input device 2, Furthermore, it is determined whether or not there is an instruction for audio white IJ+editing request (step 9d). If automatic audio editing is instructed here, a process is executed to automatically delete information on sections in which the recorded and stored audio sound pressure is below a certain predetermined threshold (step 9e). In the case of a manual editing request (step 9f), a deletion command key is input from the input device 2 while the recorded audio is being played back, and processing for deleting the audio signal in the deletion key input section is executed (step 9g). ). The editing work is performed with the initial input audio information stored and saved, and the reduction process is performed at the time of final registration (step 9k).

When a playback request instruction is input from the input device 2, audio playback processing is executed according to the audio edited information (step 9).
i). Determine whether the audio information is input or not (
Step 9J) When all the editing work is completed, the process of inputting the document name and registering and storing it in the external storage device 5 is executed, as is commonly done in current word processors (Step 9K). .

By doing this, it is possible to add audio information to normal document information.

Next, the schedule management data input process will be explained using FIGS. 10 to 12. To change from document editing mode to schedule management mode 1-, move program l1 according to the instruction input from input device @2 (load another system)
(Step 10a). Schedule management mode 1 performs general schedule management. A process is executed to display a screen prompting the user to input instructions for inputting the schedule for what year, month, day, hour and minute (step 10b). It is determined whether or not the input has been completed (step 10c), and when the input is completed, a process is executed to display a screen prompting input of an instruction as to whether or not to manage advance warning of the management data to be input (step io).
d). When the process to determine whether the settings are complete (step 10e) is completed, the information to be input is displayed on the keyboard 1" (input neck 2
), a screen is displayed prompting the user to input instructions for inputting information from the voice processing device 7 or voice information from the voice processing device 7 (step] Of). ．． If the instruction input is keyboard 1 input (step log). Character conversion processing such as "kana-kanji conversion" of input character information and edited document information are stored in the storage device 6.
(step 10.j).

In the case of an input instruction or voice information input, shift to voice processing mode 1 (10''). The system waits for input of the recording start execution key (step 11a).

When the execution key is input, the voice input information signal converted into a digital signal by the voice processor 117 is stored in the storage device 6 (step 1 i-l). In addition, there are restrictions on the amount of data that can be input, or blind voice input is over! When there is a key input (step).1c). Next, it is determined whether or not there is a request to perform audio playback (step]. ][f Execute the process of generating data (step 1"e). And when there is a recording request (step li
f). Return to step lla at the beginning of the recording start procedure. When the recording end key is input, step llg). A voice input symbol is added to the input schedule management position and stored in the storage device together with the recorded voice information (step 11h). A determination is made as to whether or not this input information is to be confidentially managed by attaching a password to it (step 1.2a).
If there is a request, a process is executed in which numerical data input from the keyboard, which is the input device 2, is added to the stored information as a password (step 12b).

Next, it is determined whether there is an audio editing request for the sound pressure information of the stored audio information (step].2c). If there is an editing request, it is determined whether there is an automatic editing request (step 2d). If there is an automatic editing request, processing is performed to reproduce the stored audio information to the original sound pressure, and processing is performed to delete information in an area smaller than a predetermined sound pressure (step) 2e. In the case of a manual editing request (step 12f), the deletion key input on the input device 102 is monitored during audio reproduction, and the information in the section specified by the key input is deleted (step 12g). In addition, if there is a request to play back the audio-edited information (Step 1.2 h
), and performs production processing on the edited audio information (step 12]). At this point, when a key input for ending audio editing is detected (step 12j), the process returns to the schedule management mode (step 12k).

Note that the process of attaching a password to the input document information is performed in the same way as the process of attaching a password to audio information (step 12m) (step 121).

Next, the entire process of the schedule management system will be explained using FIGS. 13 to 17. When the management program of the Skeshul management system is started, it first executes the process of displaying the menu screen (step 1.3a). The system waits for menu selection number/input (step 3b). If the menu selection input is "l. Create new schedule", execute the schedule management data input processing routine explained in FIGS. 10 to 12 (step 13c),
When the editing end key is input, the input processing is ended (step 13d). When there is a key input to end collection 1, a screen is displayed prompting a key input instructing to register the input schedule data (step 13e). When a key input instructing to register is detected (step 13f)
, displays a screen for entering the document name (step 13g)
. Thereafter, the input of the registration execution key is monitored, and when the execution key input is detected (step 13h), the schedule management data is stored in the external storage device 5 (step 13l), and the process returns to the menu screen display process.

When the "2. Update schedule" menu is selected and input, the process of searching for schedule management documents stored in the external storage device 5 and displaying a list of document names and document numbers on the display device 1 is executed (step 1 3 j). Furthermore, a process is executed to display a screen prompting input of designation of which document among the registered documents is to be updated (step 13k).
The call execution key input is monitored (step 131). When the call execution key is input, the specified input document is stored from the external storage device 5 to the storage device 6 and displayed on the screen (step 13m). After that, the process is the same as the process for creating a new schedule.

Next, F3 is the management process of the schedule management system.
．． Schedule management will be explained with reference to FIGS. 14 and 15. In this management process, similarly to the update process described above, schedule management documents stored in the external storage device 5 are searched, and a list of document names and document numbers is displayed on the display device 1.
The processing to be displayed is executed (step 14a). A screen display process that prompts an input to specify which schedule in this list is to be managed is executed (step 14b), and when an execution key input is detected (step 14c), the contents stored in the external storage device 5 are displayed. Execute the process of storing it in the storage device 6 and displaying it on the screen (step 14d)
. At this point, a screen is displayed prompting the user to input an instruction as to whether the management mode should include only advance notice management or even answering management (step 14e). When "1. Advance notice management" is selected and input, the data stored in the storage device 6 is scheduled =
23 Execute the process of displaying on the screen in descending order of time (step 14g). Further, a screen for selecting and inputting a notice method is displayed (step 14h). Multiple status settings are possible here.

"2. If answering machine management JMO1 is selected and input,
A screen is displayed for inputting an instruction as to whether or not advance notice management using a communication line is to be performed (step 14J), and if the management mode using a communication line is selected (step 14k). A screen prompting the user to input the contact telephone number is displayed (step 141). Once the number entry is completed (step 1.4m)
, management mode, notice mode, and telephone number are stored in the stack area in the storage device 6 (stack 15a). after that,
From the managed schedule management data, select the data that requests an advance warning at the time closest to the current time (step 15b), and send an alarm to the clock device 10 at the time when this information requests an advance warning. Setting (Step 1)
5c). A trigger for alarm processing is given from the clock device 10 to the control device 3 through interrupt processing or the like. When it is detected that the set time has arrived (step 15d).
It is determined whether the mode 1 is to contact by phone using a public telephone line (step 15e), and if the mode is the notification mode by phone, the phone number of the stored contact information is stored in a predetermined location in the storage device 6. (step 151), and the process moves to the telephone line processing routine (step 15m).

If it is not the telephone notice mode, it is determined whether it is the display notice mode (step 15f), and if applicable, the stored schedule contents are displayed on the display screen of the display device 1 (step 15g).

If the display is not in the warning mode, it is determined whether or not the mode is to warn with a buzzer (step 15h), and if applicable, a process is executed to make the buzzer in the control device 1 intermittently sound for a certain period of time (step 15). ]).

If the mode is not one of the warning modes, it is determined whether the mode is a voice warning mode or not (step 15j). If applicable, the fixed voice "The scheduled time has come" or the voice information as data is stored in a predetermined location in the storage device 6 (step 15k), and the voice output processing routine is called (step 15k). 15-1) Next, details of the system response to communication from the outside via the public communication (telephone) line in this schedule management processing mote will be explained with reference to FIGS. 6 and 17. First, when a calling signal is input from the telephone line (step 16a). The line is taken off-hook (line connection), and the voice information previously stored in the ROM part of the storage device 6 is transmitted to the sender via the voice processing device 7 and the transmission processing attachment 8.
Inform the user that the answering machine is currently on (step 16b). At this time, a timer is set for time management for accepting schedule reservations (step 16c). The input of the push dial rOJ signal (this signal processing will be explained in detail when explaining FIG. 22), which is a schedule reservation request signal, and the time-up are monitored (step 16d) (step 16e). within the specified time
If the OJ signal is not input, the mode shifts to the answering machine function in the schedule management mode, a timer is set to limit the recording time (step 16f), and the answering machine record t. f A sound "beep" is outputted to indicate that the standby state has been entered (step 16g).

The subsequent voice input from the telephone line is stored in the storage device 6 via the transmission processing device j1゜゛1゛8 and the voice processing neckpiece 7 (step).6h. This process continues until the line is disconnected (step 16'') and the timer times out (step 16J), after which on-hook processing (line disconnection) is executed (step 16k). After on-hook, a series of line processing is performed to determine whether or not an abnormality has occurred by searching a predetermined area of the storage device 6 (step 17r+). ．． If there is no abnormality, output processing is executed to display the processed contents as a message on the display neck 1 (step 1.7b). Further, if there is a record indicating that an abnormality has occurred, the fact that an abnormality has occurred in the reception process is displayed on the display device (step 17c).

If input of the rOJ signal requesting the schedule reservation mode is detected in step l6d described above, it is determined whether password 1 is specified for schedule management (step 16), and if it is specified, Then, the process shifts to the password 1-processing routine (this process will be described later with reference to FIG. 9) (step 16m). A predetermined area of the storage device 6 is searched to determine whether an abnormality has occurred in the processing of this password 1 (step 1.6n).
). If there is no abnormality, set the timer to limit schedule reservation acceptance time (step 16p). A voice response is made to notify that the schedule reservation acceptance state has been reached (step 16q). The contents are shown below.

"Please enter the date and time you wish to make or cancel your reservation in the correct order: year, month, [", hour, minute]. ” All input here is 2
Accepts digit information as one delimiter. In addition, as mentioned above, the signal here also uses the unique transmission signal of the bush dial signal, and the reception and judgment processing is performed by the transmission processing device 8.
Do it through. When the number of input signal digits reaches a predetermined number of digits, it is determined whether the input format [. (Step 16s).
Step 1 again. 6 Respond with -t voice at q. If the format +- is correct, search the data in the external storage device 5 to determine whether there is someone already scheduled at the time of the input ['' (step 1.61;), and if there is a reservation, make a reservation. Determine whether there is a cancellation call and the data has a certain “#” code (Step 1.6 +.+), and if there is no “#” code, send a fixed voice response indicating that there is already a scheduled appointment. This is executed (step 16■), and a voice response is made again (1-6q). If the reservation conditions are satisfied, the schedule management information is stored in the storage device 6 as schedule management information according to the input information (step 1).
6w). Furthermore, a standard voice response is executed to notify that the reservation has been made and to notify that the reservation is ready for recording (Nutetub 16X). The process moves to the next step 16f.

Next, the telephone line control process will be explained using FIGS. 18 and 19. This is a transmission process, in which line call processing is executed according to the destination telephone number stored in a predetermined area of the storage device 6 (step 18a). Based on whether or not there is a ringback tone (generally speaking, ringing tone) heard from the transmission destination, it is determined whether the transmission destination is busy (step 18b). If the other party is on the phone, the alarm generator 10f of the autopsy device 10 is set to 1 minute after the current time (step 18c).

When the timer 1rflo times up (step 18
d). Determine whether the number of redials is 5 or less (
In step 18e), if the number of times is 5 or less, the process moves to dial processing. Note that if the transmission is not possible even after dialing five times, a message indicating that the transmission is incomplete is displayed and the series of processing is completed (steps 18h and 18p). This process is executed in the same way as step 18g even when the line is not connected even if the destination is not busy, that is, when the calling time monitoring timer times up when the destination is absent. If the transmission destination connects the line, it is determined whether the information to be transmitted has a password (step 18i), and if the information is not password-protected, the name of the person to be contacted and the notification that the scheduled time has arrived are sent. Performs processing to contact the caller using a fixed voice response. In this process, the name of the person to be contacted and the content of the transmission are stored in a predetermined location in the storage device 6 (step 181).
), the audio processing subroutine is called and executed (step 18m). In this audio output routine, as shown in FIG. 20, audio is reproduced by continuously transmitting information stored in a predetermined location of the storage device 6 to the audio processing device 7 at a constant cycle (step 20a). In this process, the information to be reproduced at a predetermined position in the storage device 6 is sent to the end (step 20b). Note that if the content to be transmitted has a password attached, the process moves to a password processing routine (step 18J). In this password processing, as shown in FIG. 19, first, voice information requesting the name and password of the person to be contacted is stored in
(step 19a). Tears device 1
The password input permissible time is added to the current time and set in the alarm generator of 0 (step 19b), and the audio output processing routine explained earlier is executed (step 19c).
. The password requested here is determined by numerical input using a push-button dial (each button is assigned a predetermined transmission frequency) (step 19).
d). As a result, if the password is correct, the process moves to step 18n, which is the main process. If it is not correct, it is determined whether or not the timer 10, which has been set to 1 in step 19b, has timed up (step 19e);
If the time has not expired, it is determined whether the number of password inputs is three or less (step 19f), and if so, the process returns to step 19c. If the allowable password input time has exceeded or the password has been incorrectly input more than a predetermined number of times, it is determined that there was an error in password processing.

A request message requesting to do so is displayed on the screen (Step 231)). It is determined whether the floppy disk has been correctly loaded (step 23c). Answering machine mode 1 - Display on the screen that the answering machine is in operation (Step 2)
3d). When there is a call signal from a public line (
Step 23e) Off-hook the line (line connection);
A message informing that it is an answering machine is stored in a predetermined location of the storage device 6 as described above, and a process for calling a voice output processing routine is executed (step 23f).

Next, a timer is set for the recording limit time in the monthly device 10 (step 23g). Executes the process of outputting the notification sound “beep” to notify that recording standby is activated (steps 2 and 3).
h). The process of storing the input voice in the storage device 6 (step 231) is performed until the telephone line is disconnected (step 23).
j). The process continues until the time is up (step 23k). If the line is disconnected or the time is up, on-hook processing (line disconnection processing) is executed (step 23m). Store the information in the storage device 6 in the external storage device 5 (step 2
3n). This process continues until there is an input to end the answering machine mode (step 23p).

Next, for reference, FIG. 25 shows the external appearance of such a document editing processor]'Q and a Japanese word processor having information processing functions. Devices that are the same as those shown in FIG. 1 are given the same reference numerals.

〔Effect of the invention〕

According to the present invention, in addition to document information such as text information and graphic information that can be input using an input device such as a keyboard, audio information can also be input using a simple information input means. Instead, by taking advantage of the information transmission function of public telephone networks, it was possible to transmit information such as schedule management to remote locations.

In addition, by adding password 1' to this voice information and inputting this password using push-button dialing on a public line rather than using the keyboard, which is the input device of the document editing device, it is possible to confirm whether the information is confidential or not from a remote location. I realized that.

Furthermore, for transmitters using public lines when the person in question is not present,
The secretarial work of schedule management can be added to the document editing device by using voice messages and push-dial signals.
