Abstract

PURPOSE:To make it possible to perform a transmission in order according to a priority order set in advance by operating a timer according to the priority order set in a priority setting means when a collision occurs between an incoming and an outgoing. CONSTITUTION:The depression of a transmission button by an operator in a multiple addressing equipment is detected by a detection circuit 2, and the circuit 2 informs this to a control means 1. The control means 1 recognizes the setting of an opposite and outputs a start-up tone from an output circuit 3, and also, recognizes whether other multiple addressing equipments have received the outputted start-up tone from a detection circuit 4, and when it has been received, the collision between the incoming and the outgoing is informed to the operator with a buzzer 5. The control means 1 reads the priority order from a priority order setting means 6, and sets a time in which delays fitted for the priority order are provided, starting a timer 7, and when it received the start-up tone from other multiple addressing equipment before the timer is timed out, a receiving is started instantly.

Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION [Field of Industrial Application] The present invention relates to a facsimile broadcasting device that automatically transmits transmission according to preset priorities when there is a collision between transmission and reception.

[Conventional technology]

A conventional facsimile broadcasting device of this type is shown in FIG.

Figure 3 is a configuration diagram of a conventional facsimile broadcasting device.
In the figure, ■ is a control means that controls the entire transmitting and receiving function;
2 is a push-down detection circuit that detects push-down of the send button; 3
4 is an output circuit that outputs a startup tone; 4 is a startup tone detection circuit that detects a startup tone output from another broadcast device;
5 is a buzzer that notifies the operator of outgoing/incoming calls.

Next, the operation will be explained.

When the operator presses up the send button of the facsimile, the push-down detection circuit 2 detects the push-down of the send button and notifies the control means 1 of the detection.

When the control means 1 receives the signal from the push-down detection circuit 2, it confirms that it is in the standby state, that the original is set, and that the destination has been set, and then outputs a startup tone from the output circuit 3. Output.

At the same time, the control means 1 uses the startup tone detection circuit 4 to determine whether or not a startup tone outputted from another facsimile broadcasting device has been received. Notify the incoming call collision and stop the transmission.

[Problem that the invention seeks to solve]

Conventional facsimile broadcasting devices are configured as described above, so if a start-up tone is received from another facsimile broadcasting device when starting transmission, and an IH collision occurs, the transmission will be stopped. However, there was a problem in that the send button had to be pressed again in order to send after receiving the message.

This invention was made in order to solve the above-mentioned problems, and when another facsimile broadcasting device and the own facsimile broadcasting device start transmitting at the same time and there is a collision between the sending and receiving calls, the pre-setting is done. It is an object of the present invention to provide a facsimile broadcasting device that can sequentially transmit data according to priority orders.

[Means for solving problems]

For your convenience, the facsimile broadcasting device according to the present invention includes:
a priority setting means for setting the order of transmission in order of priority;
The priority setting means includes a timer for sequentially outputting activation tones based on the order set in the priority setting means, and a control means for controlling facsimile transmission and reception based on the timer, and the control means controls transmission and reception. In case of a collision,
This system is characterized by automatically outputting and transmitting activation tones in order of priority.

[Effect]

When there is a collision between outgoing and incoming calls, the control means operates the timer according to the priority and order set in the priority setting means.

Then, the control means monitors whether or not a startup tone is being received from another facsimile broadcasting device until the timer times out, and if the startup tone is not received, outputs the startup tone ++j times. and start sending.

〔Example〕

An embodiment of the present invention will be described below based on the drawings.

Note that the same or corresponding numbers are given to the same components as those in the prior art, and the explanation thereof will be omitted.

FIG. 1 is a block diagram of a facsimile broadcasting apparatus showing an embodiment of the present invention.

In FIG. 1, 6 is a priority setting means such as a switch that can set the transmission priority, and 7 is a timer for sequentially outputting activation tones according to the priority set in the priority setting means. be.

Further, (2) is a control means for controlling the entire transmitting/receiving function, which has a function of re-outputting the activation tone according to the priority order in the event of a call conflict.

Next, the operation of the facsimile broadcasting apparatus configured as described above will be explained according to the flowchart shown in FIG.

When the operator presses the send button of the facsimile broadcasting device, the detection circuit 2 detects the press of the send button and notifies the control means 1 (step 11).

Next, the control means 1 confirms that it is in a standby state, that the document has been sent, and that the destination has been set (step 12), and outputs a startup tone from the output circuit 3 (step 13). Furthermore, the control means 1 learns from the detection circuit 4 whether or not the activation tone outputted by another coaxial device has been received (step 14), and if so, notifies the operator of the call collision using the buzzer 5 (step 15). .

Subsequently, the control means 1 reads the priority order from the priority order setting means 6 such as a switch, sets a delay time corresponding to the order, and starts the timer 7 (step 16).

Then, the output circuit 4 continues to monitor until a time amplification is performed to determine whether or not an activation tone is received from another broadcasting device (steps 17 and 18).

If the timer does not output the startup tone before the timer expires, the control means 1 returns to step 12 and confirms that it is in the standby state, that the document has been set, and that the destination has been set. That there is (i
1 and outputs the activation tone again (step 13).

In this case, if the activation tone of another facsimile broadcasting device is not received, the device enters the transmission state (step 19).

Here, if an activation tone is received from another broadcasting device before the time is up, reception will begin immediately (step 20).

Then, when the reception ends, the operations after the timer start are repeated again. When the transmission order is reached and the transmission is finished, normal broadcast communication control returns.

In addition, in the above embodiment, in order to give priority, a delay time is set for each and the startup tone is output again.
The activation tones may be output with priority given in advance.

[Effects of the Invention] As described above, according to the present invention, there is a priority setting means for setting the order of transmission in order of priority, and activation tones are sequentially output based on the order set in the priority setting means. and a control means for controlling facsimile transmission and reception based on the timer, and when there is a collision between transmission and reception, the control means automatically outputs a startup tone in order of priority. Since the transmission is performed at once, the operator can reliably perform broadcast communication in sequence by simply pressing the transmission button or the like once.
