Abstract

PURPOSE:To allow an abbreviation number not registered to be easily recognized and to register the number in a short time by searching a memory and detecting a one-touch key number or the abbreviation number not registered yet and displaying it on a display device. CONSTITUTION:When a registration key of a key board 3 is operated, a control circuit 1 detecting a key signal searches an unregistered area by checking sequentially an area of a memory 5. When nothing is registered in the memory, data representing a 1st area are displayed on a display device 4. When abbreviation number data are entered by a ten-key and telephone number data to be stored are succeedingly entered, the control circuit 1 stores the entered telephone number data to the memory 5 and writes data '1' indicating the presence of the stored data. When a registration key is operated for 2nd registration later, the memory 5 is searched similarly as above and the unregistered number is displayed, then the memory area not registered is easily recognized and the telephone number is written.

Description

Detailed Description of the Invention

FIELD OF THE INVENTION This invention relates to telephone devices.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art Recent telephone devices are provided with a one-touch dial function and a speed dial function, are configured to store a plurality of telephone numbers in a memory, and can be easily dialed by one-touch keys or speed dial numbers. ing. Then, as a method of storing in the memory, after the operation of the registration key, the one-touch key for registering the telephone number or the abbreviated number is input, and then the telephone number is entered, so that The telephone number is configured to be registered (see, for example, Japanese Patent Publication No. 53-30601).

[0003]

By the way, when registering a telephone number, it is necessary to confirm which one-touch key or abbreviated number has not been registered before performing the registration operation. In a device not equipped with a display device, a dial call operation is performed using a one-touch key or an abbreviated number to determine whether or not the dial call operation is actually performed. Further, in a device provided with a display, it is judged whether or not it is unregistered depending on whether or not the telephone number data is displayed on the display by performing a dialing operation as described above.

Therefore, conventionally, it is impossible to judge whether or not the registration has not been made without actually performing a dial transmission operation, which requires a long time for confirmation and requires many key operations, which is troublesome.

[0005]

The present invention has been made to solve the above problems, and stores a registration key for instructing the registration of a telephone number, telephone number data and data for instructing the presence / absence of registration. Memory, a means for detecting whether or not the memory is registered by operating the registration key, a display for displaying a telephone number and an unregistered area number of the memory, and a memory for the memory detected by the detecting means by operating the registration key. The control means is configured to control the registered area number to be displayed on the display.

[0006]

Since the present invention is configured as described above, when the registration key is operated, the memory is searched to detect an unregistered one-touch key number or an abbreviated number and the result is displayed on the display unit. The number or abbreviated number can be easily known, and registration can be performed in a short time.

[0007]

Embodiments of the present invention will be described below with reference to the drawings.

(1) is a control circuit for controlling the entire telephone device, which is composed of a microprocessor, and controls each part according to a program in a program memory (2) in which a processing program is stored. Reference numeral (3) is a keyboard composed of a registration key, a change key, a one-touch key, a ten-key pad, etc. The control circuit (1) which takes in the key signal controls according to the program of the program memory (2) according to the key signal. Reference numeral (4) is a display for displaying data input from the keyboard (3) or data processed by the control circuit (1), and is composed of a liquid crystal display.
(5) is a dial memory that stores a plurality of telephone number data, and is divided into memory areas (00) to (N) corresponding to one-touch keys or abbreviated numbers as shown in FIG.
Each of the memory areas (00) to (N) is composed of an area (5A) for storing registration presence / absence data and an area (5B) for storing a telephone number. (6) is a dial transmission generation circuit, which generates a dial signal under the control of the control circuit (1) and sends it to the telephone line (L).

Next, the operation of the present invention having such a configuration will be described.

First, the operation of registering a telephone number in the dial memory (5) will be described.

When the registration key of the keyboard (3) is operated, the control circuit (1) which has detected the key signal in step (S5) proceeds to step (S6) and sequentially checks the area (5A) of the memory (5). By doing so, the unregistered area is searched. If it is not stored at all, the data "00" indicating the first area (00) is displayed on the display (4) in step (S8). Then, when the abbreviated number data "00" is input with the ten keys in step (S9) and then the telephone number data to be stored in step (S10) is input, the control circuit (1) calls the telephone number input in step (S11). The number data is stored in the area (5B) of the memory (5), and the data "1" indicating that there is stored data is written in the area (5A). The control circuit (1) having thus written one data item in the memory (5) proceeds to step (S12) to determine whether or not the registration mode has ended. If not, proceeds to step (S6). In the same manner as described above, the area (5A) of the memory (5) is searched, and the presence / absence of non-registration is detected in step (S7). Since the data was written in the shortened number "00", step (S
In 8), "01" is displayed as the unregistered number. Therefore, if the telephone number is input in the same manner as described above, the input telephone number is written in the area (01) corresponding to the shortened number "01" in the memory (5).

The telephone numbers thus sequentially input are written and stored in the memory (5). When the registration mode is released after the writing to the memory (5) is completed, the control circuit (1) detects the end of the registration mode in step (S12) and ends the registration mode.

Next, when the registration key is operated to register again later, the memory (5) is searched and the unregistered number is displayed in the same manner as described above, so that the unregistered memory area can be easily identified. You can write your phone number.

When the memory (5) becomes full, the control circuit (1), which has detected in step (S7) that there is no unregistered area as a result of searching the memory (5), proceeds to step (S1).
Go to 3) and instruct the display (4) to be full "FULL"
Display.

By the way, the above-mentioned registration method uses the memory (5).
When registering for the first time in, it was a case of registering in the unregistered area in order, but by entering an arbitrary abbreviated number,
It can be registered in any area of the memory (5). Therefore, it is possible to organize and register the telephone numbers of the related parties by using the shortened numbers such as 10s and 20s.

When a one-touch key is provided, for example, the abbreviated numbers "00" to "09" are associated with the one-touch key, so that areas "00" to "09" are displayed.
Registration can be performed with a one-touch key corresponding to.

Next, the change of the registered telephone number will be described.

When the change key of the keyboard (3) is operated, the control circuit (1) which has detected the key signal in step (S3) proceeds to the registration change processing routine of step (S4), and as shown in FIG. Based on the shortened number data in which the changed telephone number input in (S41) is stored and the new telephone number data input in step (S42), the corresponding telephone number in the memory (5) in step (S43) Rewrite the data.

Next, the operation of reading out the telephone number stored in the memory (5) and making a dial call will be described.

At the time of dialing, if the corresponding abbreviated number is entered with the ten keys and the dial key is operated, step (S1)
The control circuit (1) which has detected the transmission key signal at step proceeds to the dial transmission processing routine at step (S2) and reads the data corresponding to the shortened number from the memory (5) at step (S21) as shown in FIG. , In step (S22), it is converted into a dial signal and dialed to the telephone line (L).

[0021]

As described above, in the telephone device of the present invention, when the telephone number is registered in the memory, the memory is searched and the unregistered area number is displayed on the display unit. Therefore, registration can be done in a short time.
