JPH06164727A - Consecutive transmission control system for message waiting - Google Patents

Abstract

PURPOSE:To relieve the load of selective operation of other registration terminal equipment by devising the system such that the transmission for other succeeding registration is attained by dialing operation only when a party to be registered makes operation of message transmission when plural messages are registered in one and the same registered terminal equipment. CONSTITUTION:A succeeding dialing terminal decision means 2 at first confirms whether or not a message transmission call from another registration terminal equipment is registered in a table 1. When another message is registered in the table, the succeeding dialing terminal decision means 2 decides the sequence of transmission and informs and stores the result of decision in the table 1 later. When the call is interrupted after message transmission, a consecutive transmission confirming means 3 confirms the content of the table 1 to check whether or not the consecutive transmission is available. When available, a consecutive means 4 displays a message of a succeeding registration terminal equipment to a registered party. Furthermore, when the consecutive transmission is disable, the means 3 sets the terminal equipment to be an idle.

Description

Detailed Description of the Invention

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a continuous transmission control system for message waiting in a private branch exchange.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art When a message from a plurality of registered terminals is registered in a certain registered terminal, the registered person sends a message to any one of the plurality of registered people, but there is no response. When you are disconnected, you may want to immediately send a message to another message registrant. The series of operations will be described below with reference to FIG.

FIG. 4 is a diagram showing a conventional message waiting processing flow. Note that S1 to S4 represent processing steps. As shown in FIG. 4, in the conventional message waiting transmission method, a registered person who has received a message registration confirms whether or not a plurality of outgoing message calls are registered in his / her registered terminal. Press the message button to select (S
1) Raise the handset (S2) to make a call.

If there is no reception, disconnection is performed (S
3) The self-registered terminal is set to an idle state (S4), and a series of operations is ended. As described above, when a certain message registrant is called but disconnected without a response, the registered terminal becomes idle (S4), and when sending to another message registrant, the message receiving operation is repeated from the beginning. Need to do.

Further, when the message registrant at the transmission destination does not respond to the incoming call, the message remains in the memory of its registered terminal.

[0006]

Therefore, in the technique of the conventional example, when a plurality of messages are registered at the time of calling, there is a problem that the selection operation of the other message registrant is troublesome for each call. .

[0007] The present invention, without the trouble of the originator
The purpose is to continuously send to other message registrants.

[0008]

In order to achieve the above object, as shown in FIG. 1, a table 1 for storing information of message registrants and a message of a message registrant registered in the table 1 are provided. When making a call to the message registrant being displayed, referring to the table 1 above, it is confirmed whether or not another message is registered, and the next calling terminal determining means 2 for deciding the next message registration terminal, and disconnection after calling. Table 1 shows whether continuous transmission is possible
If another message is registered in the continuous transmission confirming means 3 for confirming in step 1 and the table 1, the other message is displayed on the registered terminal, and it is possible to call the other message registrant without releasing the registered terminal. The continuous transmission means 4 is provided.

[0009]

According to the present invention, as shown in FIG. 1, the next originating terminal determining means 2 confirms whether or not a message originating call from another registered terminal is registered in the table 1, and another message is recorded in the table 1. Is registered, after the transmission order is determined, the determination result is notified to the table 1 and stored.

Next, when a disconnection call is made after the message is sent, the continuous transmission confirmation means 3 confirms the contents of the table 1 to check whether continuous transmission is possible. If continuous transmission is possible, The continuous transmission means 4 causes the registered person to display the message of the next registration terminal, and when continuous transmission is impossible, the continuous transmission confirmation means 3 sets the terminal to an idle state.

Therefore, when a plurality of messages are registered in the registered terminal, even if the registered person calls a certain message registrant and then disconnects, the message is immediately transmitted based on the message display result of the next registered terminal. be able to.

Embodiments of the present invention will be described below with reference to FIGS. FIG. 1 is a diagram showing the principle configuration and processing flow of the present invention. 2 is a diagram (No. 1) showing an embodiment of the service of the present invention, and FIG. 3 is a diagram (No. 2) showing one embodiment of the service of the present invention.

In FIG. 1, 1 to 4 are means provided for performing the processing of the present invention, 1 is a table, 2 is a next transmission terminal determining means, 3 is a continuous transmission confirmation means, and 4 is a continuous transmission means. is there.

As shown in FIG. 1, the next calling terminal determining means 2
First, it is confirmed whether or not a message outgoing call from another registered terminal is registered in the table 1, and if another message is registered in the table 1, the next outgoing terminal determining means 2 determines the outgoing order. After the decision, the decision result is notified to the table 1 and stored.

Next, when a disconnecting call is made after the message is sent, that is, when the registrant is called but the registrant disconnects with no response, the continuous transmission confirmation means 3 confirms the contents of the table 1. Then, whether continuous transmission is possible or not is checked, and if continuous transmission is possible, the continuous transmission means 4 causes the registered person to display a message of the next registration terminal.

If continuous transmission is impossible, the continuous transmission confirmation means 3 sets the terminal to an idle state. Therefore, when multiple messages are registered in the registered terminal, even if the registered person calls a certain message registrant and then disconnects, it is possible to immediately send based on the message display result of the next registered terminal. become.

The present invention will be described in more detail below with reference to FIGS. 2 and 3. 2 and 3, 10 is a private branch exchange, 11a is a registered terminal of a message, and 11b and 11c are registered terminals that have already registered a message in the registered terminal 11a.
Further, 1a is a message registration table corresponding to the registered terminal 11a.

FIG. 2A shows a registration terminal 11b and a registration terminal 11b.
c is the case where a message is registered in the registered terminal 11a. That is, as shown in FIG. 2A, in the message registration table 1a, the pointer of the next calling terminal and the registered terminal 11b are registered.
, The time when the message is registered by the registration terminal 11b, the number of the registration terminal 11c, the time when the message is registered by the registration terminal 11c, ...

The operation from the above state is shown in FIGS.
An explanation will be given by using (C) and FIG. 3 (D). Figure 2 (B)
The registered terminal 11a presses the message receiving button to send a message to the registration terminal 11b of the first registration order, and the registration message of the registration terminal 11b is displayed on the display of the registered terminal 11a and registered off-hook. It is a figure calling to the terminal 11b.

Upon receiving the calling information from the registered terminal 11a, the private branch exchange 10 sends a ringer ringing order to the registered terminal 11b by the extension number of the registered terminal 11b to receive the call. Also,
The message registration table 1a is searched for another message and the pointer of the next registration terminal is updated (the next registration terminal is the registration terminal 11
c).

FIG. 3C shows a case in which the registered terminal 11b does not respond to the incoming call in the case of FIG.
It is the figure which cut | disconnected. When the private branch exchange 10 detects the on-hook of the registered terminal 11a, it sends a ringer stop order to the registered terminal 11b, and the registered terminal 11a receives the next registered terminal 11c indicated by the next calling terminal pointer in the message registration table 1a. Terminal information (extension number, registration time) is extracted and edited, and a character order is sent out and displayed on the display of the registered terminal 11a. Also, monitoring of the timing of continuous message transmission is started.

FIG. 3D is a diagram showing that the registered terminal 11a goes off-hook and transmits to the second-order registered terminal 11c in the case of FIG. 3C. When the private branch exchange 10 receives the calling information from the registered terminal 11a before the continuous transmission time-out, it sends the ringer ring order to the registered terminal 11c by the extension number displayed on the display of the registered terminal 11a to receive the call. That is, the call can be made to arrive at the next registered terminal (registered terminal 11c in this case) only by making a call operation.

When the continuous transmission is timed out (there is no next registered terminal), the continuous transmission of the message is terminated and the registered terminal 11a becomes idle. In addition, the registered terminal 11a
In, it is possible to select another registered terminal by operating the scroll button while the next registered terminal is being displayed.

[0024]

As is apparent from the above description, according to the present invention, when a plurality of messages are registered in the same registered terminal, the registered person only needs to perform a message sending operation once and thereafter. It is possible to make a call to another registered terminal only by making a call operation, and it is possible to reduce the selection operation of another registered terminal.
