JPS63108845A - Broadcast call method for teleprinter - Google Patents

Abstract

PURPOSE:To perform the broadcast call of a teleprinter with an easily operation, by transmitting destination numbers already registered in order, as referring to a table by the control part of the teleprinter. CONSTITUTION:Firstly, when the teleprinter is set at a transmission mode, and the key input of a header is performed form a key operating part, the control part transmits a broadcast call request. And when a message possible to transmit the broadcast call is received from an exchange, the control part reads out a first destination number and a completion code from a memory, and sends them to the exchange, and also, transmits a new line character. Furthermore, the next destination number and the completion code are detected from the memory, and they are transmitted to the exchange, and also, a new line character is transmitted. After transmitting the least destination number and the completion code, the control part transmits the completion indication of the broadcast call instead of a new line character.

Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a broadcast call method in a teleprinter.

(Prior Art) First, the broadcast call used in this book refers to the function of transmitting the same message to multiple destinations. Below, a conventional broadcast call method will be explained.

FIG. 2 is a sequence chart illustrating a conventional broadcast call method, and shows the communication between the teleprinter and the exchange. As can be seen from the figure, the conventional broadcast call method consists of the following steps.

(1) Send a broadcast fist call request (for example, "122+") from the teleprinter.

(2) Receive a broadcast call permission message (for example, "BC8T NBR?") from the exchange.

(3) Send the first destination number from the teleprinter to the exchange, and also send a new line.

Furthermore, the second and subsequent destinations are transmitted from the teleprinter in the same manner as the first destination.

(4) After sending the final destination number, send a broadcast call termination indication (eg, "?#") instead of a carriage return.

There are two ways to send the destination number: by keying in each character and by using speed dialing.

(Problem to be solved by the invention) However, with the method described above, even if the number of destinations is known in advance, the destination numbers must be manually transmitted for each destination as shown in the figure, which is a time-consuming operation. There was a problem that it took a long time.

An object of the present invention is to eliminate the problem that this operation is time-consuming and to provide a method for making a broadcast call with a very simple operation.

(Means for Solving the Problem) In order to solve the above-mentioned problem, the present invention includes a table in the teleprinter that stores a plurality of destination numbers to which the message is sent, corresponding to the identification code of the message. Then, make a broadcast call using the following steps.

(1) Register the destination number in the table in advance.

(2) When making an f-roadcast call, input the identification code.

(3) Upon detecting that the identification code has been input, the control unit of the teleprinter transmits a broadcast call request.

(4) When a response indicating that transmission is possible is detected, the control section of the teleprinter sequentially reads out the destination numbers from the table and transmits them.

[Effect]

The operation of the present invention is as follows.

Once the identification code has been entered, the subsequent processing is done as the control unit of the telephone refers to the table according to a predetermined procedure and transmits the already registered destination numbers one after another, so all you have to do is enter the identification code. It became possible to make teleprinter broadcast calls with simple operations.

With this effect, the present invention can solve the problem that the operation is time-consuming.

(Example) FIG. 1 is a sequence chart of a broadcast call according to the present invention, and FIG. 3 is a diagram showing a broadcast call block creation screen.

First, a method for creating a broadcast call block will be explained using FIG.

To create this broadcast call block, operate the teleprinter's operation keys to call the teleprinter's broadcast call block creation function. After that, perform the key manual movements while looking at the CRT 1. A detailed explanation will be given below.

First, a header (for example, the sender's identification code) "AB" is input to the header person Canilia 2. Then, one space is automatically inserted and the cursor (not shown) moves to the beginning position of the destination number Canilia 3. In the figure, the number “
1" position. Next, the destination number ("12" in the figure)
34567") and the end code 4 ("+#" in the figure), and then press the down cursor key COUNTRY to continue. As a result, a broadcast call mark 5 ("*") is displayed before the header "AB".

The cursor also moves to the top position of the destination number Canilia 3 on the next line (the position of the number "2" in the figure).

Here, as before, enter the next destination number ("234" in the figure).
5678') and the end code 4 (1+'' in the figure), then press the down cursor key country to continue.Then, as before, the cursor will move to the beginning of the next line's destination number Canilia 3. Position (number “

”] and the termination code 4 (“+” in the figure), press the carriage return key to indicate the end of the broadcast call block 6.This will move the cursor to the header 2 start position (“B” in the figure)
position). In the figure, then the header @BC
``Destination number'''6789012, ``Also header ``CD'' destination number @7890123
'The key is human power. However, for these headers, after pressing the end code 4, the return/line feed key is pressed.

Note that the information entered manually as described above is stored in a memory (not shown), and is prepared for future transmission.

Next, the transmission operation will be explained according to the sequence chart shown in FIG.

First, put the teleprinter in sending mode. The subsequent steps are as follows.

(1) Manually input the header from the key operation section of the teleprinter. In this embodiment, the header is defined as having two characters, so when the control section of the teleprinter detects that a two-character header has been input, the control section automatically proceeds to the next step.

(2) The control unit sends a broadcast call request (eg, "122+").

(3) Receive a broadcast call permission message (for example, 'BC8T NBR?') from the exchange.

(4) The control unit reads the first destination number and termination code 4 from the memory, transmits them to the exchange, and transmits a carriage return and line feed.

Additionally, from memory the next destination number and termination code 4
, send it to the exchange, and send a carriage return and line feed.

(5) After transmitting the final destination number and termination code 4, the control unit transmits a broadcast call termination instruction (for example, "?") in place of a new line feed.

As described above, the destination number and termination code 4 in the header ""AB" are all transmitted.

(Effects of the Invention) As described above in detail, according to the present invention, a broadcast call block is stored in advance in the memory of a teleprinter, and when a broadcast call is sent, the control unit of the teleprinter is activated in this memory. , and automatically reads out all destination numbers corresponding to the headers, so all you have to do is input the headers manually, and you can make broadcast calls with very simple operations.

Claims (1)

[Claims] In a broadcast call method for a teleprinter having a key input means, a display means, and a communication means, a table storing a plurality of destination numbers corresponding to the identification code of a message and to which the message is sent is provided for the teleprinter. It is installed in the printer, the destination number is registered in the table in advance, and only the identification code is input when making a broadcast call.The control unit of the teleprinter detects the last code of the identification number and issues a broadcast call request. , and upon receiving a response indicating that transmission is possible, the control unit of the teleprinter sequentially reads destination numbers from the table and transmits them.
