Abstract

PURPOSE:To reduce a registering operation with respect to the association of a user by learning used opponent dials and associating one touch dial buttons with the opponent dials in accordance with the frequency of use. CONSTITUTION:If the handset HAN of a telephone set is picked up, an off-hook signal SIG1 is transmitted to a main unit ME, which transmits four pieces of high-order dial information DAT1 to the telephone set TEL from a dial learning memory GAK. The telephone set TEL associates dial information with the one touch dial keys TKEY and sequentially displays them in a dial display part DISP. If the one touch dial key TKEY is depressed, the main unit ME adds frequency information HIN of the dial corresponding to the dial key signal SIG3 in the dial learnig memory GAK, and updates the sequence in the dial learning memory GAK. Thus, the user needs not to learn the frequency of use and to associate the opponent dial keys with the dial keys, whereby operation can be simplified.

Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION The present invention relates to key telephone devices, particularly electronic key telephone devices.

(Prior Art) Conventionally, a one-touch dial button and a destination dial in a button telephone device are associated in a semi-fixed manner by the telephone user who determines the frequency of use.

[Problem that the invention seeks to solve]

However, in the above conventional example, the correspondence between the one-touch dial button and the destination dial is semi-fixed, and the number of one-touch dial buttons is also limited, resulting in the following drawbacks.

(1) When associating a new destination dial with a one-touch dial button, if all the buttons are used, the telephone user must judge the frequency of use and delete the previously registered ones. It won't happen.

(2) The user must perform a registration operation to associate the one-touch dial button with the destination dial.

[Means for Solving the Problem (and Effects)] The present invention learns the used destination dial and associates the one-touch dial button with the destination dial according to the frequency of use. This reduces the number of registration operations related to the above-mentioned association.

(Embodiment) FIG. 1 is a configuration diagram of a device according to an embodiment of the present invention, where 1 is a telephone, and ME is a main device that controls each telephone, including a control unit GPU, a memory ROM for storing programs, and various information. The OL has a memory RAM for reading and writing, and is a central office line that connects each telephone to an outside line.

FIG. 2 shows an embodiment of the present invention, where HAN is a telephone handset, DISP is a dial display section, TKEY is a one-touch dial button, CKEY is a display switching button, and GA
K is a dial learning memory in the RAM in the main device ME, and is composed of a dial number and frequency information HIN.
They are arranged in order of frequency.

When you pick up the telephone receiver HAN, the off footer signal 5I
GI is sent to the main device ME, and the main device ME retrieves the top four dial information DATI from the dial learning memory GAK.
is sent to the telephone device.

The telephone device displays the dial information on the dial display section DISP.
are displayed in order in association with the one-touch dial button TKEY.

Next, FIG. 3 shows an example in which there is no destination dial in the first dial display.

When the display switching button CKEY is pressed, the switching signal 5IG
2 is sent to the main device ME, and the main device ME sends the next four pieces of dial information DAT2 from the dial learning memory GAK to the telephone device. The telephone device displays the next sent dial information on the dial display section DISP.

Here, when the one-touch dial button TKEY is pressed, the one-touch dial button signal 5IG3 is sent to the main device, and the main device ME adds dial frequency information HIN corresponding to the one-touch dial button signal 5IG3 in the dial learning memory GAK. and updates the order in the dial learning memory GAK.

FIG. 4 shows an example in which the destination dial is not registered in the dial learning memory GAK of the main device ME, and NKEY is a numeric button.

When a dial is displayed on the dial display section DISP of the telephone device and the number NKEY is dialed instead of the one-touch dial button TKEY, a dial signal 5IG4 is sent to the main device ME, and the main device ME dials the dial. learning memory GA
Add to K.

FIG. 5 is a flowchart showing the operation of the control unit CPU according to the contents of the program memory ROM on the main device ME side in the embodiment of the present invention.

When an off-footer signal is received from the telephone, step 5-1
, and set the dial learning memory pointer to the beginning position. In step 5-2, four pieces of dial information are sent to the telephone from the position indicated by the pointer in the dial learning memory, the pointer is updated, and step 5-3 is entered.
Wait for a signal from the phone.

Steps 5-4.5-5.5-6 are steps for determining signals sent from the telephone set, and distinguish between display switching signals, one-touch dial button signals, and numeric dialing.

If it is a display switching signal, the process goes to step 5-10, and it is determined whether there is dial information registered in the learning memory to be sent next to the telephone. If there is, the process goes to step 5.
-2, if there is none, the process goes to step 5-1 and the data is sent again from the first dial.

For one-touch dial button signal, step 5-
Step 11 is entered, the button number is obtained from the signal, the dial position in the learning memo is calculated, and step 5-12 is entered.

In the case of a numeric dial, it is determined in step 5-7 whether the dial is already in the learning memory, and if it is, the process goes to step 5-12, and if not, the process goes to step 5-8.

In step 5-12, the frequency information of the corresponding dial position is added, and the process proceeds to step 5-13, where the order of the dial information in the learning memory is rearranged together with the frequency information according to the frequency information.

On the other hand, in step 5-8, if a new dial is to be registered, it is determined whether the learning memory is empty.

If there is a vacancy, step 5-14 is entered and a dial is registered with frequency information set to 1 in the position next to the lowest dial.

If there is no vacancy, the process proceeds to step 5-9, where the lowest dial information is deleted and a new dial is registered with frequency information set to 1 in its place.

[Other Examples]

As the dial learning function, there are two possible methods: a long-term management method and a short-term management method for the frequency information of the above embodiment.

Alternatively, the most recently used dial may be always used first without using the frequency information.

〔Effect of the invention〕

As explained above, by learning the destination dial and associating the result with the one-touch dial button, the user does not have to consider the frequency of use and associate the destination dial with the one-touch dial button, simplifying the operation. It has the effect of making it more effective.
