Abstract

PURPOSE:To reduce a load on a central control unit by executing each function of the accumulation of a pager call data, management of a pager call time, and the send-out control of the pager call data, by a data transfer control device. CONSTITUTION:When an incoming line 4 is actuated from the other station, a central control unit 1 detects it and controls a channel 3, connects the incoming line 4 and a numeral receiving device 5, receives a pager subscriber number from the other station by the device 5, and the equipment 1 reads it out. The equipment 1 generates a pager call data in accordance with the program of a main storage device 2, and it is accumulated successively in the memory 60 of a data transfer control device 6. A send-out time of the accumulated data is counted by a timer 61, and when a send-out start time comes, the timer 61 gives an instruction of sending-out, to the memory 61. The memory 60 transfers the accumulated pager call data to a transmitter through a data transferring circuit 62. When the transmitter 7 transmits by radio the pager call data through an antenna 8, a pager 9 receives it and generates a ringing tone.

Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION (Technical Field) The present invention relates to paging systems, particularly! The present invention relates to a paging system using the l'fi program control method.

(Prior Art) Conventionally, this type of paging system uses a batch method. That is, when a paging system receives a pager call request call from a partner station, the pager call data is stored in the paging system, and the pager call data is sent to the transmitter in a batch manner within a specified time. .

FIG. 1 is a block diagram showing an example of a conventional batch-type paging system. In the figure, when the incoming line 4 is activated from the other station, the central control unit l detects this and controls the communication path 3 to connect the ingress line 4 and the numeric receiving device 5, so that the pager from the other station is activated. - The reception status of the subscriber number. When the pager subscriber number is sent from the partner station, the pager subscriber number is received by the number receiving device 5, and the central control device 1 reads it out. The central controller 1 performs analysis according to the procedure of a program stored in the main memory 2, creates pager call data, and sequentially stores it in the main memory 2. Here, the sending time of the pager calling data to the data transfer control device 6 is managed by the central control device 1, and when the sending start time of the pager calling data comes, all the pager calling data money that has already been accumulated is transferred. It is sent to the transmitter 7 via the data transfer control device 6. The pager call information sent to the transmitter 7 is wirelessly transferred through the antenna 8, and the pager 9 receives the wirelessly transmitted pager call data and generates a ring tone.

However, in addition to general exchange processing functions, the central control unit in a paging system must also create and store pager call data, manage pager call time, and send out accumulated pager call data. (Object of the Invention) An object of the present invention is to provide a pager call data accumulation function,
A paging system that eliminates the above drawbacks and reduces the load on the central controller by moving the pager call time management function and the pager call data transmission control function from the central controller to the data transfer controller. Our goal is to provide the following.

(Structure of the Invention) According to the present invention, in a paging system using an accumulation program control method, a memory for accumulating pager call data, a timer for counting pager call time, and a paging system that uses a storage program control method, pager in memory
A paging system is obtained which is characterized by comprising a data transfer control device comprising a data transfer circuit that sends paging data.

(Example) Next, the present invention will be explained with reference to FIG.

FIG. 2 is a block diagram showing an embodiment of the paging system of the present invention, in which the same components as in the conventional paging system are given the same reference numerals as in FIG. 1. In this embodiment, part of the functions of the central control unit 1 (shown in FIG. 1) of the conventional system are transferred to the data transfer control unit 6'. In other words, the data transfer control device 6' includes a memory 6o for sequentially storing page-by-page call data from the central control unit 1', a timer 61 for counting the pager call time, and a timer 61 for counting the pager call time, and when the time has come to start sending out the pager call data. hour timer 6
and a data transfer circuit 62 that sends the contents of the memory 60 to the transmitter 7 in response to a sending instruction.

Next, the operation of this embodiment will be explained.

The operations from the time the partner station activates the incoming line 4 until the central controller 1' creates pager call data are the same as those shown in FIG. The pager call data created by the central controller 1' is stored in the memory 60 sequentially. On the other hand, the transmission time of the accumulated pager call data is counted by a timer 61, and when the transmission start time comes, the timer 61 instructs the memory 60 to transmit it. memory 60
transfers the accumulated pager call data to the transmitter 7 via the data transfer circuit 62 in accordance with the sending instruction. Since the transmitter 7 wirelessly transmits the pager calling data via the antenna 8, the pager 9 receives the data and generates a ringing tone.

(Effects of the Invention) As is clear from the above explanation, according to the paging system of the present invention, the data transfer control device performs the sending control process of information related to pager calls, so that the load on the central control device can be reduced. The effect is that the exchange processing capacity can be improved.
