DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION (Technical Field of the Invention) The present invention relates to a market information reporting system that receives and displays various market information such as stock prices sent through a market reporting line.

(Prior art and its problems) Figure 1 shows an example of this type of conventional communication system, in which market price information generated at a stock exchange is collected in a central device 1. It is sent to the market price report chart vA2. The market price reporting line 2 is distributed by the distribution device 3 and
It will be spread all over the country. A user of the market price reporting system connects the market price reporting line 2' indoors and connects it to the control section 4 of the market price reporting device. The control section 4 receives market price information from the market price reporting line 2', edits it into a format suitable for display, and sends it to the signal cable 5. The market price reporting terminal 6 is configured to display data received from the signal cable 5.

Such conventional systems have the following problems.

■ Since the signal flowing through the signal cable 5 is a video signal, the display quality will deteriorate if it is transmitted over a long distance. Therefore,
It must be installed close to the control unit 4 and the terminal 6.

Therefore, the use of the terminal 6 is restricted to only within the same campus.

■ Users must turn on the control unit 4 in order to access market information.
I have to go to a certain place where terminal 6 is installed.

(Purpose of the Invention) The present invention solves the above-mentioned drawbacks of the prior art, and enables the market report terminal to be installed not only in a narrow place close to the market report device control unit (but also in an unspecified wide area via a telephone line). By connecting the market price reporting device control unit and the market price reporting terminal using a telephone line, it is possible to use the market price reporting device in any location without having to add a market price reporting line even if the market price reporting terminal is added. The purpose is to provide a market information reporting system that is designed to be easy to use.

Note that the display screen may also have a copy function.

) The local reporting terminal control device 7 receives and stores all the market price information sent from the central device 1, and prepares for a service request from the local reporting terminal 10. below,
The operations of the local reporting terminal control device 7 and the local reporting terminal 10 will be explained with reference to FIG.

When a user with a local reporting terminal 10 wishes to receive a service, the user calls the local reporting terminal control device 7 using the transmission control function of the local reporting terminal 10 for the subscriber telephone exchange network (0-■). When the local reporting terminal control device 7 is called by the local reporting terminal 10, it sends a signal indicating that the call has been received to the local reporting terminal 10 (■). When the local reporting terminal 10 receives the reception signal, it displays a message indicating that the reception has been accepted ([
phase]). The user locally inputs his or her identification code into the reporting terminal 10 (■). The local reporting terminal 10 sends out the user's identification code and its own identification code ([phase]). Local reporting terminal control device 7
When receiving the identification code (■), it determines the service range according to the identification code (■), and sends a message indicating the service range to the local reporting terminal 10 (■).

The local reporting terminal 10 receives the message, displays it, and waits for the user to input a service request code (O).

When the user inputs a service request code into the local reporting terminal 10 ([phase]), the local reporting terminal 10 sends the code to the local reporting terminal control device 7 (0).

When the local reporting terminal control device 7 receives the service request code (■), it first checks whether it is a service termination request. If it is a service termination request (■), local reporting terminal 1
Send a termination message to 0) and terminate the service (0). If it is not a service termination request, check whether the service is within the service range determined by the identification code (■). If it is outside the range, the request is discarded, a warning message is sent to the local reporting terminal 10 (2), and the service request code is waited for again. If it is within the range, search and edit the accumulated market price information to create information that meets the request and send it to the local reporting terminal 10 ([phase]). The local reporting terminal 10 receives the information requested by the user.

), the system waits for the service request code to be input again (@).

If the user no longer needs to receive the service, input the termination request code into the local reporting terminal 10 (
@l). The local reporting terminal 10 sends a termination request code to the local reporting terminal control device 7 (@). When the local reporting terminal control device 7 receives the termination request code, it sends a termination message to the local reporting terminal 10 (■) and terminates the service (@).

When the end message is displayed on the local reporting terminal 10 (0, 0), the user disconnects the local reporting terminal 10 from the subscriber telephone exchange network 9 and takes it away (0).

(Effects of the Invention) As is clear from the above description, the following effects can be obtained by the present invention.

■ Market report services can be received from anywhere where there is a telephone, expanding the scope of users' activities.

■ The number of lines that need to be installed can be reduced, so there are fewer line application procedures. It also reduces line installation costs.

■ Since market information such as stock prices can be viewed even after the central device is powered off, there are no restrictions on available time.
