In the present invention, a plurality of telephone numbers assigned to each line are registered to automatically dial a telephone number assigned to each line in case of an emergency so as to notify an emergency message. The operation of registering a plurality of telephone numbers corresponding to each line will be described with reference to FIG. 2. In step 101, the CPU 12 checks whether a line selection key is input from the key input unit 12, and if a line selection key is input, step 102. Displays a menu for inputting a line selection number on display 16. In the embodiment of the present invention, it is assumed that four lines are provided, but the number of lines may be four or less, or four or more lines. Therefore, the user presses the line select key to select the line 1 and presses the number 1 key to select the line 1, press the number 2 key to select line 3, and press the number 3 key to select the line 3, and Press number key to select line 4. In step 103, if the line selection number key is input and the line selection number key is input, the process proceeds to step 104. In step 104, the central processing unit 12 displays the input line selection number on the display unit 16. Then, the user presses the memory dial key and the numeric keys to enter a phone number. When the phone number is completed, the user presses the end key. In this case, the CPU 12 inputs the memory dial key in step 105 and registers the telephone number input from the key input unit 10 in the memory 14 in step 106. In step 107, the CPU 12 checks whether an end key is input from the key input unit 10 in step 107, and proceeds to step 108 when an end key is input. In step 108, the CPU 12 displays a menu for inputting the next input telephone number on the display unit 16, and proceeds to step 109. In step 109, if the telephone number is inputted and the next telephone number is input, the process returns to step 106 and registers the telephone number input from the key input unit 10 in the memory 14. This operation is repeated so that, for example, five telephone numbers corresponding to line 1 can be registered. Therefore, a total of 20 telephone numbers can be registered on four lines. For example, suppose five phone numbers registered on line 1 are 23-4567, 23-4557, 123-4568, and 123-4584. The operation of registering a message to be notified after registering a telephone number on each line is described with reference to the flowcharts of FIGS. 3A and 3B. First, when a user presses a voice memo key, the CPU 12 performs voice in step 210. Proceed to step 20 with the input of the memo key. In step 202, when the user inputs a voice message for notifying when an emergency occurs through the voice input unit 28, the user receives the input voice message, converts it into a digital signal through the codec 32, and registers it in the voice storage unit 36 through the voice processor 34. In order to check the registered voice message, the voice output unit 30 outputs the voice message. When the user presses the voice reproducing key of the key input unit 10, the central processing unit 12 determines that the voice reproducing key is input in step 203, and proceeds to step 204. Proceed. In step 204, the central processing unit 12 reads the voice message stored in the voice storage unit 36, synthesizes the voice through the voice processing unit 34, converts the analog signal from the codec 32, and outputs the voice message to the voice output unit 30. do. This confirms the recorded voice message.

In this way, by storing voice messages to be notified in an emergency and registering a phone number corresponding to each line, in case of an emergency, the telephone number is sequentially dialed to the registered phone number to send an emergency message to make an emergency contact. This will be described with reference to FIG. 4. In step 301, the CPU 12 proceeds to step 302. The CPU 12 checks whether a delivery key is input from the key input unit 10. In step 303, the CPU 12 forms a call loop by controlling the line interface and the call circuit 18 and proceeds to step 304. In step 304, the central processing unit 12 reads the first registered phone number from the memory 14 and dials through the dialing unit 20. Then, the central processing unit 12 checks whether the other party answers. In step 305, if the other party answers, the processor proceeds to step 306. The central processing unit 12 controls the voice storage unit 36 to read the recorded emergency message, synthesizes and plays the voice in the voice processing unit 34, and then the codec 32 and the switching unit 26. And through the line interface and the circuit circuit 18 to send to the other side. In step 307, the message transmission is ended. If the message transmission is ended, the flow proceeds to step 308. In step 308, the CPU 12 controls the line interface and the call circuit 18 to cut the call path, and then proceeds to step 309. If the other party does not answer in step 305, the process proceeds to step 309 to contact the next telephone number. In step 309, the central processing unit 12 checks whether the next registered phone number exists, and if the next registered phone number exists, proceeds to step 310 to control the line interface and the call circuit unit 18 to form a call loop and proceed to step 311. do. In step 311, the CPU 12 reads the next telephone number from the memory 14, dials through the dialing unit 20, and returns to step 305 described above. By repeating the above operation, a plurality of telephone numbers assigned to one line are sequentially called to notify emergency messages and take emergency contact. For example, assuming that five telephone numbers 23-4567, 23-4557, 123-4568, and 123-4584 are assigned and registered on line 1, when the user presses the play key of the key input unit 10, the CPU 12 Control the line interface and the call circuit unit 18 to form a call loop, dial 23-4567, the first phone number registered in the memory 14, and respond to the emergency message registered in the voice storage unit 36 through the voice processor 34 when there is a response. Emergency contact is made to the other party who responded by voice synthesis. When the transmission of the recorded emergency message is terminated, the call path is cut off, and the call loop is formed again. Then, the next telephone number 23-4557 is dialed. If there is a response, the emergency message is sent in the same manner as described above. Dial 123-4568 and send an emergency message back to the other party. Repeat this operation to dial the fifth phone number of 123-4584 to automatically notify that an emergency has occurred. In the same manner as described above, a plurality of subscribers may be called at the same time by using lines 1 to 4 at the same time to make an emergency contact.

As described above, according to the present invention, when an emergency occurs, the person in charge can take action according to an emergency after having the telephone terminal device perform an emergency contact network function, and the recording message of the same content is repeated so that the receiver can easily grasp the contents. In addition, since a number of subscribers can be connected by individual telephone lines to make collective calls, there is an advantage that the emergency contact time can be shortened by quickly making an emergency contact.
