Abstract

PURPOSE:To attain continuous data transmission to lots of parties and to save the operation time by providing an opposite telephone number storage section and a number consecutive storage section storing a symbol representing a delimiter and an end of a telephone number continuously. CONSTITUTION:A transmission data is set to a transmission data input section 13 and an opposite telephone number is stored from an operation section 11 to a number continuous storage section 16. In this case, a delimiter symbol is added between numbers and an end symbol is given after the final number. Then a data transmission section 14 stores a first transmission data to a data storage section 15 from the input section 13 with a transmission command from the operation section 11 and sends the data via a transmission reception control section 17 simultaneously. When the transmission is finished, a control section 12 applies the end control of a line 101 by using a signal from the control section 17. Then a succeeding opposite number is read from the storage section 16 and whether a symbol succeeding to the number is a delimiter or an end code is discriminated and after the transmission data is transferred, whether or not the number is read again from the storage section 16 is discriminated, the succeeding opposite party is called, the data is read from the storage section 16 and sent from the transmission section 14.

Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION [Field of Industrial Application] The present invention relates to a facsimile machine, and relates to a function of transmitting data continuously to a large number of parties.

[Conventional technology]

Conventionally, this type of facsimile machine has a function of storing the recipient's telephone number in advance, and when the recipient's telephone number is called up with a push button or the like and the data is sent to the next recipient, In this case, the recipient's phone number was called again, the data to be sent was set again, and the message was sent.

[Problem to be solved by the invention]

The above-mentioned conventional facsimile apparatus has the drawback that when sending to a large number of recipients, the recipient's telephone number and transmission data must be set each time.

[Means to solve the problem]

The facsimile device with multiple transmission function of the present invention has a telephone number storage section and a number that continuously stores symbols indicating the end and end of the telephone number so as to enable continuous transmission to a large number of parties. It has a continuous memory section, and when there is an instruction to start transmission, it reads the first telephone number up to the part that indicates the punctuation or end symbol, and dials without the punctuation or end symbol. means for storing the transmission signals in the transmission order in the transmission data storage unit at the same time as transmitting the transmission data, and a symbol indicating the punctuation or end of the telephone number read from the telephone number storage unit after the first data transmission is completed; If it is a punctuation mark, it reads the next telephone number, dials the number, and sends the data when the other party answers, and from the second time onwards, it reads from the transmission data storage unit and sends the data, and if it is the final symbol, it ends. have.

〔Example〕

Next, the present invention will be explained with reference to the drawings.

FIG. 1 is a diagram of one embodiment of the present invention. In FIG. 1, one embodiment of the present invention inputs transmission data to a transmission data input section 13. Toshi, from the operation section 11 to the control section 1
2, the other party's telephone number is stored in the number sequence storage section 16. At this time, add a punctuation mark between the numbers and an end mark after the first number.

Next, in response to a transmission instruction from the operation unit 11, the control unit 12
The first transmission data is stored in the data storage section 15 from the transmission data input section 13 in the data transmission section 14 and simultaneously transmitted via the transmission/reception control section 17. When the transmission is completed, the control unit 12 controls the termination of the line 101 using a signal from the transmission/reception control unit 17, reads the next destination number from the number sequence storage unit 16, and checks whether the symbol following the number is a punctuation mark or not. After the transmission data is transferred, it is determined whether or not to read out the number again from the number sequence storage unit 16, and the next party is called, and the data from the data storage unit is read out and sent to the data transmission unit. The data is transmitted from the transmission/reception control unit 17 via 14.

This is repeated to transmit data, and number consecutive storage unit 1
When the symbol following the number from 6 is the end, the last called party's number is called, the data read from the data storage section 15 is transmitted from the transmitting/receiving section 17 via the data transmitting section 14, and then the control section 12 and performs termination processing via the transmission/reception control section 17.

In the case of reception, the signal from the transmission/reception control section 17 is sent to the control section 1.
2 receives the received data and sends a receivable signal to the other party, the received data is outputted from the transmission/reception control section 17 via the data receiving section 18 to the received data output section 19.

As described above, one embodiment of the present invention has a number sequential storage unit for sequentially storing called telephone numbers with punctuation or end symbols added between the numbers, and data transfer is performed from the first call. After that, the next call reads the punctuation or end mark after the reading number data and performs the next operation.

Also, at the same time that the data is sent to the first party,
It has a function of storing data in the transmission data storage section, and when transmitting to the other party for the second time, it is read from the transmission data storage section and transmitted. However, at the time of second and subsequent transmissions, the data is not stored in the transmission data storage section.

Furthermore, when there is an end symbol after the read number data from the number storage section, erasing operation is performed after transmitting the transmission data.

〔Effect of the invention〕

As described above, the present invention has the effect of saving unnecessary operating time by allowing a conventional facsimile machine to transmit data to a large number of recipients in succession.

Claims (1)

[Claims] In order to enable continuous transmission to a large number of recipients, it has a recipient's telephone number storage section and a number sequence storage section that continuously stores the punctuation and end symbols of the telephone number, so that instructions to start sending can be sent. Once that is done, read the first telephone number up to the part that indicates the punctuation or ending symbol, omit the punctuation or ending symbol, dial the number, send the preset transmission data, and at the same time send the transmission signal. means for storing the data in the transmission order in the transmission data storage unit, and when the first data transmission is completed, reading the next phone number if the punctuation mark or symbol indicating the end of the phone number read from the phone number storage unit is a punctuation mark; The multi-transmission function is characterized by having a means for transmitting data by dialing and transmitting data when the other party answers, and a means for reading data from the transmission data storage section and transmitting the data from the second time onwards, and for ending the transmission if it is the final symbol. facsimile machine.
