Abstract

PURPOSE:To make watching and waiting at the side of the titled system until copying is ended unnecessary by providing a means for generating a data for showing a prescribed state, when the prescribed state of an operating equipment is detected, and a means for transmitting said data to the other party. CONSTITUTION:For instance, when a user desires to copy a large quantity of sheets extending over a considerable long time, an operator goes to a copying device 1, sets copying and starts copying. Copying is started, a receiver 6 is drawn out of the copying device 1, and an operator holds it, and goes to a place where the operator desired to go. In such a case, the copying device 1 being the body is constituted so as to judge that transmission to a packet bell 6 is required when a work which is being executed at present is ended, when copying is ended, the pocket bell rings.

Description

[Detailed description of the invention] (Industrial application field) This invention relates to a paging system.

[Conventional technology]

Conventionally, this type of equipment includes, for example, a copying machine, which has become highly automated.
It is possible to copy 0 copies.

(Problems to be Solved by the Invention) With conventional devices, if you do not stand by until the copying is finished, the end time is unknown. There is a problem in that the copying machine is dedicated to this copying work.

[Means for solving problems]

The present invention has been made to solve such problems, and includes a detection means for detecting the state of an operating device, and a device that indicates the predetermined state when the detection means detects a predetermined state of the operating device. The operating state of the operating equipment is notified to an operator located far away from the operating equipment by means of a generating means for generating data and a transmitting means for transmitting the data generated by the generating means to a predetermined party.

(Embodiment) An embodiment of the present invention will be described below with reference to FIGS. 1 to 3. FIG. 1 is a block diagram showing the overall configuration of an embodiment of the present invention.

In the figure, 1 is a main body, and this main body has a certain degree of automatic work ability, and this automatic work ability corresponds to, for example, continuous copying in the case of copying.

Reference numeral 2 denotes a determination section that determines whether the operation of the main body 1 has ended or whether an abnormality has been detected.3 is a determination section that receives the output from the saw determination section 2; When a task is completed or when an abnormality occurs, a transmitter sends information about the result, 4 is a receiver that manually inputs the output of this transmitter 3, and 5 converts the signal from this receiver 4 into audio. It is a speaker that converts to

Fig. 2 shows an example in which the main body is a copying machine, where 1 is the main body of the copying machine with a built-in transmitter, 6 is a receiver detachably set in this copying machine, and this receiver 6 is a speaker. It is a pager with a built-in.

FIG. 3 is a flowchart for explaining the operation means of an embodiment of the present invention, and is an example of copying.

First, in step S1, a large number of copies are made.
Assuming that you want to make a copy for quite a long time, you go to the copying machine 1, set up copying, and start copying (step S2). Next, copying is started, the receiver 8 is removed from the copying machine 1, the driver carries it, and goes to the desired destination (step S3). In this case, the copying apparatus 1, which is the main body, determines to send a message to the pager 6 when the currently executed job is completed, and when the copying is completed, the pager is activated (step S4). Based on the way the pager rings, the driver determines whether the work has been completed normally (step S5). Returning to the copying operation, the following steps are taken (step S6).

According to an embodiment of the present invention, when a copying machine is used to perform a task that takes a long time, such as copying, the job can be completed even if the copying device is moved to another location until the copying task is completed. This has the effect of allowing you to see the results of the determination of normality and abnormality.

In one embodiment of the present invention, the main body 1 is a copying machine, but it may also be a terminal having a certain degree of automatic operation capability.

Furthermore, by incorporating a voice synthesizer into the receiver 4 shown in Fig. 1, a voice message corresponding to the message from the main unit 1, such as ``Completed normally!'', can be generated. ” etc. can be output.

Furthermore, the main body can be used for a video deck, a cassette deck,
Similar effects and effects can be achieved on computers, etc.

〔Effect of the invention〕

As described above, according to the present invention, it is possible to automatically inform an operator located at a remote location of the operating state of an operating device.

[Brief explanation of drawings]

FIG. 1 is a block diagram showing the overall configuration of an embodiment of the present invention, FIG. 2 is a perspective view of the external appearance when the main body is a copying machine, and FIG. 3 is a flowchart illustrating the procedure of the operating means. 1...Main body 2...Detector 3...Transmitter 4...Receiver 5...Speaker 6------ Note that in each figure, the same reference numerals refer to the same or corresponding parts.

Claims (1)

[Claims] An operating device that performs a specific processing operation, a detection means that detects an operating state of the operating device, and a generating means that generates data indicating the predetermined state when a predetermined state of the operating device is detected by the detection means. and transmitting means for transmitting the data generated by the generating means to a predetermined party.
