That is, according to the first aspect, for example, a telephone in which "XX-XXX-XXXXX" is registered as registered telephone number information in the storage means 11 as the telephone number of the own station. When an incoming call arrives and it is determined that the caller phone number of the caller information is "△△-△△△-△△△△" and that the caller information does not match the registered number information Starts an answering operation such as sending a response message to the line after the line is captured.

Also, as the telephone number of the own station, the registered telephone number information in the storage means 11 is "XX-XXX-XXXXX".
Is registered, the incoming call comes in, and the caller phone number of the caller information is "XX-XXXXX-XXX."
When it is determined that the caller information matches the registered number information, the line answering operation is not started after the line is seized, and the outside line remote is started.

Therefore, according to the operation control described above, if the telephone number registration information registered in advance matches the telephone number information of the caller information of the incoming call, it is determined that the user is the answering machine user, and the answering operation is performed. By directly entering the outside line remote without performing the above, it becomes unnecessary to enter a password, and it is possible to enter the outside line remote without entering a password.

(Embodiment 2) When the information comparing means of the telephone set according to the first aspect determines that the caller information matches the telephone number registered in advance based on the comparison result of the information comparing means. By providing an external line remote matter playback start means that goes into an outside line remote state without going through the answering machine response and activates the playing operation of the matter, when the caller information coming from the communication line is received by the receiving means, The information comparing means compares the received caller information with the number registration information memory stored in the storage means, and the control means matches the caller information with the telephone number registered in advance based on the comparison result. If it is determined that the answer is absent, the outside line is in a remote state without intervention of the answering machine response, and the operation for reproducing the message can be started.

Further, in the answering machine of the first and second embodiments, if the telephone number registered in advance is the transfer destination telephone number, the caller information coming from the communication line at the time of the incoming call is already stored. The telephone of claim 1 automatically activates an outside line remote for an incoming call from the transfer destination, and the telephone of the second embodiment automatically activates an incoming call from the transfer destination. In this case, since the external line remote is activated and the message reproduction can be started, poor operability such as performing a password input operation from the transfer destination and performing a plurality of operations up to the start of reproduction can be eliminated.

[0046]

According to the first aspect of the present invention, when the caller information arriving from the communication line at the time of an incoming call coincides with the already stored caller information, the outside line remote operation is not performed without the absence response. Since the activation can be performed, the troublesome operation of the user to input the personal identification number when sending the answering machine response OGM can be omitted.
According to the second aspect of the present invention, when the caller information coming from the communication line at the time of the incoming call coincides with the already stored caller information, it is possible to cancel the remaining transmission of the currently set transfer. Because of this, it is possible to prevent a call from being forwarded and a call to be forwarded after the call is terminated.

According to the third aspect of the invention, when the caller information arriving from the communication line at the time of the incoming call matches the already stored caller information, the set reserved call can be canceled. For this reason, it is possible to prevent a call from being made from the destination of the reservation and the call being made after the call is cut off.

According to the present invention, when the caller information arriving from the communication line at the time of an incoming call matches the already stored caller information, the set automatic redial can be canceled. Therefore, it is possible to prevent a situation where a call is automatically redialed after a call is cut off even if a call is received from an automatic redial destination.

According to the fifth aspect of the present invention, when the caller information arriving from the communication line at the time of the incoming call is already stored, when the DTMF is received from the outside line and the external line is in a remote state, a specific outside line is transmitted from the transfer destination outside line. When the DTMF signal is detected, the stored caller's telephone number can be used as the transfer destination telephone number, so that the troublesome operation of inputting the transfer destination telephone number (including pager display data) by an external line remote is not performed. Can be set for the transfer.

According to the invention described in claim 6, when the caller information coming from the communication line at the time of the incoming call coincides with the already registered telephone number information, whether the message is recorded or not is determined. Can be changed, the user can confirm the presence / absence of a business by the number of ringback tones heard from the communication line when calling from outside.
