Description
AT 000 756 UlAT 000 756 Ul
Die Erfindung besteht aus einer Programmlogik in einer an einen Telekommunikationskanal angeschlossenen CPU sowie einer Einrichtung zur Anwendung dieser ProgrammlogikThe invention consists of a program logic in a CPU connected to a telecommunications channel and a device for using this program logic
Der bisherige Stand der Technik sieht keinen Zusammenhang zwischen "Faxgeräten" und "Computerterminals", weil die einen Bild-Informationen verarbeiten und transportieren, (wobei das "Papier" Schnittstelle zum Benutzer ist), während die anderen maschinenlesbare Codes verarbeiten und transportieren (wobei "Bildschirm und Tastatur" die Schnittstellen zum Benutzer sind)The current state of the art sees no connection between " fax machines " and " computer terminals " because some process and transport image information (where the " paper " interface to the user), while others process and transport machine readable codes (" screen and keyboard " are the interfaces to the user )
Mit der Erfindung soll eine Integration zwischen diesen beiden Funktionsbereichen "Fax" und "Computerterminal" herbeige führt werden. Damit werden alle weltweit vorhandenen Faxgeräte auch zu Geräten mit Funktionen aufgewertet, wie sie heute andere EDV-Peripheriegeräte erfüllen. So können gewisse Aufgaben vernetzter PC, etwa Durchführung von Datenbankabfragen, damit erfüllt werden. Die Kommunikationsplattform des CCITT-Faxprotokolls ist dabei die stabile Basis für den weltweit problemlosen Verbindungsaufbau,Informationsaustausch und Transport von Programmbefehlen als Bild-Information..The invention is intended to integrate between these two functional areas " Fax " and " Computer Terminal " be brought about. This means that all fax machines available worldwide are upgraded to devices with functions that other EDP peripheral devices today fulfill. In this way, certain tasks of networked PCs, such as performing database queries, can be fulfilled. The communication platform of the CCITT fax protocol is the stable basis for worldwide problem-free connection establishment, information exchange and transport of program commands as image information.
Die Aufgabe wird nach der Erfindung dadurch gelöst, daß an-kommende Bild-Informationen durch eine OCR-Software umgewandelt werden und folgende Vorgänge ausgelöst werden: Umdrehen der Senderichtung zwischen Sender der Bildinformation und empfangender CPU (im alternativen Fall durch Rückruf); Ableitung von Prozeßbefehlen für.die CPU, wobei durch auf dem Formular abgelesene Identifikationsnummer(n) das zugehörige Programm aufgerufen bzw. eine adressierte Datenbank angesteuert wird; Verwendung weiterer übersetzter Bildinformation als EingangsInformation für das aufgerufene Programm.The object is achieved according to the invention in that incoming image information is converted by OCR software and the following processes are triggered: reversing the direction of transmission between the sender of the image information and the receiving CPU (in the alternative case by recall); Derivation of process commands for the CPU, the associated program being called up or an addressed database being activated by means of the identification number (s) read on the form; Use of further translated image information as input information for the called program.
Hiezu kann erläuternd angeführt werden, wie der Benutzer diese Funktionen in einer beispielhaften Aufgabenstellung handhabt: er füllt ein Formular entsprechend den vorgesehenen Feldern aus, wobei er ein Mindestmaß an Leserlichkeit der Handschrift einzuhalten hat. Das aufgabenspezifische Formular hat dabei gegenüber einem-Standardmenü eines PC den Vorteil, daß es inhaltlich genau auf das beschränkt werden kann, was aufgabenspezifisch zweckmäßig ist. Bei einer Abfrage aus einer Kundendatei wären also die auszufüllenden Felder des Formulars verschiedene Kundenmerkmale, nach denen ausgewählt werden soll. Dieses ausgefüllte Formular kann dann von jedem beliebigen Faxgerät an die Empfänger-CPU abgesandt werden. Dort werden die Bild-Informationen des Formulares sofort mit einem OCR-Programm übersetzt und drei Vorgänge eingeleitet: erstens wird das absendende Fax-Gerät veranlaßt, nunmehr in Empfangsposition zu gehen (oder die CPU ruft später zurück), zweitens wird das Verarbeitungsprogramm bzw. die ··Datenbank in 2For this purpose, it can be explained how the user handles these functions in an exemplary task: he fills out a form in accordance with the fields provided, while maintaining a minimum level of legibility in the handwriting. The task-specific form has the advantage over a standard menu of a PC that the content can be limited to exactly what is appropriate for the task. In the case of a query from a customer file, the fields to be filled in on the form would be different customer characteristics, according to which the selection should be made. This completed form can then be sent from any fax machine to the recipient CPU. There, the image information of the form is immediately translated with an OCR program and three processes are initiated: firstly, the sending fax machine is now prompted to go into the receiving position (or the CPU calls back later), secondly, the processing program or the ·· Database in 2
