Abstract

PURPOSE:To confirm a dial figure with a voice even when the displaying of a display device is hard to see by voice-converting a dialed dial information with a sound signal generating circuit and sending it to a transmitting receiving circuit. CONSTITUTION:Dial information from a dial circuit 4 is recognized by a central processing unit 7 and the dial information is displayed at a display device 3. Simultaneously, the device 7 sends the dial information to a telephone set circuit 1 and sends through a subscriber line 10 to an exchange as a register signal. At this time, the device 7 controls a switching circuit 5, switches it to a sound signal generating circuit 2 side, a transmitting receiving circuit 6 and the circuit 2 are connected and even to the circuit 2, the dialed dial information is sent. The circuit 2 converts the received dial information to the sound signal and sends it through the circuit 5 to the circuit 6. The dialed dial information is outputted from the circuit 6 with a voice.

Description

[Detailed description of the invention] (Industrial application field) The present invention relates to a telephone dial information notification system.

(Prior Art) Display units are increasingly being installed in general telephones.

Conventionally, in order to notify dial information of this type of telephone, a central processing unit built into the telephone recognizes the dialed information and displays it on a display unit (for example, an LCD). In addition, the dial information was notified by sending a sound confirming the pressing of the dial key to the transmitter/receiver circuit.

(Problem to be Solved by the Invention) Conventionally, dial information is notified by displaying dial information on a display unit such as an LCD.

As a dial press confirmation sound, a single tone or M on the dial
Since the F signal tone was used, it was necessary to look at the display to confirm the dialing information.Since the display section is an LCD, it is difficult to see in a dark place (<, even if you hear the press confirmation tone, the dial cannot be dialed. The drawback was that the numbers could not be verified.

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION An object of the present invention is to provide a dial information notification system that allows a caller to reliably recognize the dialed digits.

(Means for Solving the Problems) In order to achieve the above object, the dial information notification method according to the present invention is a dial information notification method for a telephone having a display device that displays dial information input from a dial circuit. an audio signal generation circuit for converting into an audio signal; a switching circuit for connecting either the audio output of the audio signal generation circuit or the telephone circuit output to a transmitter/receiver circuit; While displaying the dial information on the display device, the switching circuit is switched to the output of the audio signal generation circuit, the dial information is sent to the audio signal generation circuit, and the converted audio signal is sent to the transmitting/receiving circuit. and control means for controlling the switching circuit to switch to the telephone circuit output after dial information input is completed.

(Example) Hereinafter, the present invention will be explained in more detail with reference to the drawings. FIG. 1 is a block diagram showing one implementation of the dial information notification method according to the present invention.

This embodiment includes a telephone circuit 1 connected to a subscriber line 10, a dial circuit 4 for inputting dials, a display device 3 for displaying dialed information, and a telephone circuit I connected via a switching circuit 5. The system includes an audio signal generating circuit 2, a transmitting/receiving circuit 6, a central processing unit 7, a storage circuit 8 storing a control program, and an input/output control circuit 9i. A part of the control of the central processing unit 7 functions as a control means.

When the telephone goes off-hook, an exchange (not shown) accepts the activation. Since the exchange transmits a dial tone to the subscriber line 10i, the dial tone is sent from the telephone circuit 1 via the switching circuit 5 to the transmitting/receiving circuit 6, allowing dialing.

Dial information from the dial circuit 4 (eg.

"1") is recognized by the central processing unit 7, and the dial information is displayed on the display device 3. At the same time, the central processing unit 7 sends dial information to the telephone circuit 1, and sends it as a register signal to the exchange via the subscriber circuit 1flJ10. At this time, the central processing unit 7 controls the switching circuit 5 to switch to the audio signal generation circuit 2 side, connects the transmitting/receiving circuit 6 and the audio signal generation circuit 2, and also dials the audio signal generation circuit 21. Send dialing information.

The audio signal generating circuit 2 converts the received dial information into an audio signal and sends it to the transmitting/receiving circuit 6 via the switching circuit 5.

The transmitter/receiver circuit 6 outputs dial information such as "ichi"' or "wan" in the form of voice. Similarly 1
Next, the dial information also sends a register signal to the exchange, is displayed on the display device 3, and is converted into audio by the audio signal generation circuit 2.
The signal is sent to the transmitter/receiver circuit 6.

When all dials have been sent, the central processing unit 7
controls the switching circuit 5 to change the transmitting/receiving circuit 6 to the telephone circuit 1.
You can connect to the other party's phone and talk to the other party's phone.

(Effects of the Invention) As described above, the present invention converts the dialed information into sound by the sound signal generation circuit and sends it to the transmitting/receiving circuit, so that the display on the display device can be easily seen. The number dialed can be confirmed by the voice from the transmitter/receiver circuit.Therefore, even the visually impaired can know the number dialed, and there is also the advantage that there is no need to pay charges due to incorrect calls.
