Abstract

PURPOSE:To attain ease of arranging joy by adding a different reception identification code to a received original at each communication and recording it to identify easily the received original even if the condition of a sacker is not good. CONSTITUTION:When a system controller 3 receives information from an opposite station, the controller 3 assigns a reception identification code at each communication and adds the code to the received original together with a page number. When the reception is started, the content of a communication counter 6 is checked to discriminate what order of the reception for the day, the corresponding reception identification code is selected, the content of a page counter 7 is checked to discriminate what page the received original corresponds to, and the content of a line memory 4 corresponding to the head of the received original is converted into a data representing the reception identification code. In outputting a management report recording the reception state of the day when the operation of the day is finished, the received recording at the reception side is managed easily by recording the reception identification code together with the display of each reception.

Description

[Detailed description of the invention] 〔Technical field〕 The present invention further relates to a facsimile machine.

[Prior art]

Conventionally, when a stacker for discharging received documents in a facsimile machine is in poor condition, received documents from different communication valves among a plurality of received communication valves may be mixed with each other.

In such a case, the only way to classify and organize the received manuscripts is to distinguish them from the contents of the received manuscripts, which is very troublesome.

Additionally, if someone takes out a received document from the stacker during reception and returns it to the stacker if the received document is not addressed to them, the order of the received documents is poor and it takes time to organize them into multiple categories. .

〔the purpose〕

The present invention has been made in order to solve the above-mentioned drawbacks of the prior art, and by attaching the code of the communication side to the received document by the receiving device, the received document can be easily managed for each communication. The purpose is to provide facsimile equipment.

〔composition〕

Hereinafter, the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.

FIG. 1 shows a facsimile machine according to an embodiment of the present invention. Note that this figure shows only the receiving system.

In the figure, transmission information d sent from the other station (path shown) via a transmission line is applied to a modem 2 via an NCU (network control unit) 1, and after being demodulated, a transmission control signal is sent to the system controller. 3, the image signal is once stored in a line memory 4 having a storage capacity for one line, and then output to a recording unit (Glock or the like) 5 to be recorded on the received document. Note that when the image signal is encoded and transmitted, a decoder for decoding the encoded image signal is arranged between the modem 2 and the line memory 4.

The system controller executes a predetermined transmission control procedure with the partner station and controls each element as appropriate, and includes a communication counter 6 for storing the number of receptions and a page for storing the number of received originals. It also has a counter 7. The system controller 3 is composed of a microcontroller, a controller, and a system.

When the system controller 3 receives information from the other station, it executes the process shown in FIG. 2, assigns a reception identification code to each communication, and adds it to the received document together with a page number.

First, when reception starts, the content of the communication counter 6 is checked (process [101)] to determine what number of reception it is on the day, select the corresponding reception identification code (for example, one alphabetic character), and then check the contents of the communication counter 7. The content is checked (processing step 02) and it is determined how many pages the received original corresponds to in this reception.

Then, by converting the reception identification code of the contents of the line memory 4 corresponding to the beginning of the received document into hail data,
A reception identification code is added as shown in Figure 3 (Process 1
03).

After this, process 1 to perform the normal recording and recording process for one sheet.
04), if there is a subsequent received document (the result of judgment 105 is No), the page counter 7 is incremented (process 106) and the process returns to process 102; if one communication is completed (
If the result of judgment 105 is YES), the communication counter 6 is incremented (process 107), and then the page counter 7 is
Process 108] End the reception.

Therefore, since the contents of the communication counter 6 are updated each time a reception is received, reception identification codes are sequentially added, and as shown in FIG. 3, a different reception identification code is recorded on the received document for each communication, making identification easy. become.

Additionally, since a page is added for each reception, it is easier to align the pages of the received manuscript.In addition, if you output a management report that records the reception status of that day at the end of each day's operation, By recording the reception identification code along with the display, it becomes easier to manage reception records on the receiving side.

By the way, there are cases where the sending side adds a destination identification code and communication page number to the beginning of the transmitted image, but in this case,
The system controller 3 executes the processing shown in FIG.

That is, in the pre-transmission procedure, it is checked in judgment 110 whether or not the other station is receiving the function information that adds a destination identification code and communication page number, and if the result of this judgment 110 is yEs, the service page is sent. The unnecessary flag (illustrated path) is set (process 102), and if the result of judgment 110 is No, the contents of the page counter 7 are checked (process 10).
2).

Then, in processing 103a for adding a reception identification code, it is determined whether or not a page unnecessary flag is set, and if it is set, the page number added by the partner station is left and the reception without the page number is performed. An identification code is added, and if the page unnecessary flag is not set, a reception identification code including the page number is added.

and - processing 108 before communication ends and reception ends.
& resets the page counter 7 to 1 and resets the page unnecessary flag.

Note that the same parts in FIG. 4 as in FIG. 2 are designated by the same reference numerals, and the explanation thereof will be omitted.

By the way, the communication counter 6, (-
Ji counter 7#-1! :, it may be a software counter set in software inside the system controller 3. Therefore, when implementing the present invention, the device configuration may be the same as the conventional device, which is advantageous in terms of cost.

In addition, the reception identification code is not limited to one letter of the alphabet;
It may be any other code that is easy to recognize.

〔effect〕

As explained above, according to the present invention, each received document for each communication is recorded with a different reception identification code added to it, so even if the stacker is in poor condition, the received documents can be easily identified and the organization work can be simplified. You get the advantage of being very easy.
