(Operation) First, according to the first invention, when the phone book data required by the user is not registered in the phone device, when a command is input from another phone device to transfer the phone book data, A transfer request is sent to obtain telephone directory data registered in another required telephone device, and the user can receive services using the electronic telephone directory function using this telephone directory data.

Further, the second invention is a source of telephone directory data obtained by the telephone device of the first invention, and the telephone device registered in the telephone device itself for the telephone device that has sent predetermined identification information. It is possible to transmit book data and provide data only in response to a request from a predetermined person.

(Example) Hereinafter, an example of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings. FIG. 1 is a block diagram of a telephone device according to an embodiment of the present invention. In the figure, 2 is a line interface that is connected to the home bus 1 and separates and multiplexes B channel data and D channel data. B channel data from the line interface 2 is given to the copier 3, converted into an audio analog signal, and sent to the handset 4. An audio analog signal input from the handset 4 is given to the copier 3, digitized, and sent to the line interface 2. The data of the D channel separated by the line interface 2 is given to the control section 5, and the data sent from the control section 5 is sent to the line interface 2.
is inserted into the D channel and sent out.

The control unit 5 is composed of a microcomputer or the like, and centrally controls each unit. The control unit 5 includes a display unit 6 consisting of an LCD or the like capable of displaying characters, a keyboard unit 7 equipped with a numeric keypad and keys for inputting commands to transfer telephone directory data from other telephone devices, etc., and a keyboard unit 7 that generates a ring tone. A sounder 8 is connected to a storage device 9 in which telephone directory data and the like consisting of pairs of destination names and telephone numbers corresponding to the destination names are stored.

The control unit 5 also includes a transmitting/receiving means 51 and a storage control means 5.
2. Display control means 53, detection means 54, and transmission means 55 are provided.

FIG. 2 shows a top view of the telephone device.

Further, FIG. 3 shows a memory table of telephone directory data. As is clear from the figure, the name of the destination and its telephone number are paired together to form telephone directory data.

When the telephone device configured as described above receives the transfer of telephone directory data from a telephone device with a similar configuration that is connected via the 15DN network (including the case where it is connected to the same in-home bus 1), , the control section 5 operates according to the program shown in the flowchart shown in FIG. 4, while the control section 5 of the telephone device on the side that transfers the telephone directory data operates according to the program shown in the flowchart shown in FIG.

That is, when the key 61 (FIG. 2) for inputting a command to transfer telephone directory data from another telephone device is operated (ST41
) The control unit 5 accepts this, and then the sub-address (identification information) of the transfer request is input by operating the numeric keys (
ST42). As a result, the control unit 5 functions as a transmitting/receiving means 51 and sends call setting information including the above-mentioned subaddress to the line interface 2. The I5DN network accepts the call setting information and returns an acceptance signal, while sending the call setting information to other telephone devices. In other telephone devices, the control section 5 that has received the call setting information detects the presence of an incoming call (5T51) in the flowchart of FIG. 5, and functions as the detection means 54. The detection means 54 is provided with a memory table of sub-addresses as shown in FIG. 6, in which at least a sub-address 43 for calling the telephone device and a sub-address 44 for accepting a request for transfer of telephone directory data are stored. There is. The detection means 54 extracts the subaddress in the call setting information 5T52) and detects whether it matches any of the registered subaddresses mentioned above.
T53), and if they match, it is further detected whether they match the sub-address 44 that accepts the transfer request (5T54), and if they match, it functions as the transmitting means 55, retrieves the telephone directory data in the storage device 9, and transmits it (5T54). ST55).

Note that if the branch is NO at steps 5T53 and 5T54, the process ends without accepting the transfer of the telephone directory data.

When the telephone directory data is transferred from another telephone device as described above (ST43), the transmitting/receiving means 51 of the telephone device that issued the transfer request receives the telephone directory data (ST43).
ST44), the storage control means 52 stores this in the storage device 9 (ST45), while the display control means 53 sends the telephone directory data to the display section 6 and displays the telephone directory data on the display section 6 as shown in FIG. The book data is displayed (ST46). When using a telephone device in this way, even if the telephone directory data related to the user is registered in another telephone device, by making a transfer request as described above, the data will be transferred to the telephone device concerned. By registering telephone directory data, it is possible to realize an electronic telephone directory function. That is, the transferred telephone directory data is used to display information on the display unit 6, and when making a call, the user can easily make a call using a speed dial or the like.

In the above embodiment, the transferred telephone directory data is immediately registered in the storage device 9, but as shown in step 5T47 indicated by the broken line in FIG. Alternatively, the registration may be performed only when the registration command is input. In this way, unnecessary registration is not performed when a telephone device is borrowed, and the electronic telephone directory function can be conveniently realized without registering when necessary and requesting transfer thereafter.

FIG. 7 shows the transmission procedure for transmitting and receiving telephone directory data between the above-mentioned telephone device TE and another telephone device TE8. As is clear from this figure, it can be seen that the 15DNW4 mediates the transmission and reception of data and the transmission and reception of various control information between both telephone devices.

[Effects of the Invention] As explained above, according to the present invention, even if the telephone device does not have the telephone directory data required by the user registered, other telephones in which the telephone directory data the user requires are registered. The telephone directory data can be obtained by sending a transfer request to the device, thereby allowing the user to receive services using the electronic telephone directory function.

Furthermore, in the present invention, when a request is made to transfer phonebook data by sending predetermined identification information, the phonebook data registered in the device itself is sent, so that the request from the predetermined person can be accurately responded to. This makes it possible to provide services using the electronic telephone directory function on the other party's telephone device.
