Abstract

The method comprises the steps of storing telephone numbers inputted in series for each start station to transmit a document in a memory; dialing data of (i-th) address of the memory; transferring some signals and messages to other's party; checking the presence of the document to be transferred after increasing a counting value by 1; if there is no document, completing all the operations; if there is document to be transferred, comparing the counting value with information of (i+1)th address; and if the counting value is the same or larger than the value of the address, transmitting an MPS and confirming MCF.

The present invention relates to a technique for facsimile document transmission. In particular, when a different number of originals are to be sent to different places, a facsimile wound continuous transmission method is provided so that a single transmission key can set all desired functions by operation. It is about.

1 is a block diagram of a general facsimile, as shown therein, an operation unit 1 for selecting a telephone number or various functions, an optical unit 2 for photoelectric conversion of image data of an original through an optical element; A gate array (3) for interfacing the central processing unit (7) and the input / output terminals, a modem (4) for converting and demodulating the transmitted and received data, and a telephone connected to the facsimile to perform a telephone function ( 5) and a memory 6 for storing programs and data required for driving the facsimile, a central processing unit 7 for controlling the system with a corresponding routine of a program stored in the memory 6 according to a key selected by a user; And a thermal print head 8 for printing the image data of the original in the reception and copy modes. The operation of the conventional system configured as described above will be described with reference to FIGS. Same as

As shown in FIG. 2, the transmission status of the facsimile is divided into phases A-E, and each phase transmits or receives a signal defined by the CCITT (International Telegraph Telephone Advisory Committee).

The phase A is a step of establishing a line between transmitting and receiving, and is made by transmitting a receiving station Called Station Identification (CED) signal to a CNG (Galling Tone) signal of a transmitting side. It consists of line status, command of selection condition, etc., and phase C is the message transmission step. In phase D, if the next message is sent by the sender according to the next message, whether or not the next sender is original, MPS (Multipage Signal) is sent. After that, return to the fraud phase B and send the message of the next manuscript, if there are no more manuscripts to send, send EOP (End Of Procedure), then go to phase D, send DCN (Disconnect) and close the line to send. To complete.

Figures 3a and b are general facsimile operation signal flow diagrams, as shown therein, first setting the original to be transmitted, then dialing the telephone number of the called station, and then sending out the CNG, As described, the phase AE is transmitted.

However, in the conventional method of sending a manuscript of the conventional facsimile, if you want to send a different number of originals to different places, you have to set the send function one by one at a time when you want to send to a corresponding place. Had to suffer.

In order to solve such a conventional defect, the present invention has been devised to set all the desired functions by one key operation when it is desired to continuously transmit different number of document data to different places. It demonstrates in detail by one figure.

The configuration of the high wear to which the present invention is applied is shown in FIG. However, in FIG. 2, the map of the memory 6 is configured as shown in FIG. 4, and the present invention will be described in detail with reference to FIGS. 2, 4, 5A, and b.

First, after setting a document to be sent by the user, using the key on the control unit 1, this function uses the multi-speed continuous transmission function, and inputs the number of each destination station and the number of original pages. 7) recognizes this and controls the memory 6 as shown in the memory map of FIG. 4 to sequentially store the telephone number and transmission page of each called station. In the initial state, the address i of the memory 6 is i = 0, The page count value Pcount = 0 that counts the pages is set, and the data at address i of the memory 6 is read and displayed.

Thereafter, the image data of the original is transmitted according to the facsimile communication procedure of FIG. 2. First, when the CNG is transmitted in phase A, and the CED and DIS (Digital Identification Signal) are detected from the called party, DCS (Digital Command Signal) In addition to transmitting the TCF (Training Check).

When the CFR (Confirmation to Receive) is detected from the called party, it enters phase C and transmits a message as follows.

After sending a page of messages, the count value Pcount is increased by 1 and the next document is checked. If there is no next manuscript, EOP is sent to end the transmission, MCF (Message) is detected, DCN is sent and the first transmission is completed, and the address number of the memory 6 is increased by 2, so that data, If it is checked whether there is information of the second called station, the process returns to the step of detecting the DIS and repeats the above operation by reading the data recorded at the corresponding address from the memory 6, and if there is no data, the function is completed with the transmission completed. Ends the execution operation.

However, if the following manuscript is present, the information of the address i + 1 of the memory 6 is compared with the Pcount. If the Pcount is the same as the data of the memory 6, the EOP is sent and the count value Pcount is stored in the memory 6. If the Pcount is smaller than the memory data, MPS is sent, the MCF is detected, and the process returns to the phase of reading data at address i of the memory 6, and the above operation is repeated.

As described in detail above, the present invention can automatically send data to a corresponding place by setting a desired function by one key operation using a memory when a different number of originals are to be sent to different places. By providing the user with convenience, the transmission time can be saved.

Claims (1)

A first step of sequentially inputting a telephone number for each called station to which an original is to be sent, and storing it in the memory 6; and dialing the data of the address i in the memory 6, and defining the CCITT to the other party. The second step of transmitting the signal and the message and the count value (Pcount) are increased by one, and the next document to be transmitted is checked to see if there is a next document, and if it is not completed, the i + 1 address information and the count value (Pcount) are displayed. And a third step of transmitting the MPS and confirming the MCF when the count value (Pcount) is greater than or equal to each other.
