Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION [Field of Industrial Application] The present invention relates to a simplified text message system in an electronic exchange to which a multi-function telephone with a text display function can be connected.

[Prior Art] Conventionally, voice mail, which is a voice message, has been used as mail that allows access from a telephone to one of the service functions of an electronic exchange.

[Problems to be Solved by the Invention] However, the mail accessed from the telephone in the service function of the conventional electronic exchange described above has the disadvantage that it is voice-based, and there is no system that can handle text messages.

[Means for Solving the Problems] An object of the present invention is to solve the above-mentioned problems and provide a simplified text message system that enables text message service.

In order to achieve the above object, the simplified text message system according to the present invention registers text message information from the message party corresponding to the telephone in an electronic exchange to which a multi-function telephone with a text display function can be connected. An information storage device and an information control device that controls the registration of the information storage device and controls reading of registered text message information by operating an ID code from the called party are provided, and the text message information is transmitted to the called party. This is displayed on the messenger's telephone.

[Example] Next, an example of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings.

FIG. 1 is a block diagram showing the structure of a simplified text message system according to an embodiment of the present invention.

In the figure, an information control device 2 is connected to an electronic exchange 1, an information storage device 3 and a maintenance terminal control package 8 are connected to the information control device 2, and a maintenance terminal 9 is connected to the maintenance terminal control package 8. is connected. Further, a multifunction telephone control package 4 for controlling a multifunction telephone 5 is connected to the electronic exchange 1, and a multifunction telephone 5 is connected to the multifunction telephone control package 4.

The information storage device 3 registers text message information from the messenger, and the information control device 2 controls the registration and output. As shown in FIG. 2, the multifunction telephone 5 includes a character display section 6 for displaying various characters, a message control button and lamp 7, and other buttons necessary for dial operations.

Next, the operation according to this embodiment will be explained.

From the maintenance terminal 9 or the data terminal of the multifunctional telephone 5 to which a data terminal can be connected, text message information, that is, a message, from the message requester is registered in the information storage device 3 via the information control device 2, and the message is sent to the information storage device 3 via the information control device 2. Lamp control (lighting) of the message control button 7 of the message telephone is performed via the multifunction telephone control package 4.

After the message recipient operates the ID code from the multi-function telephone 5, the text message information is displayed on the text display section 6 by pressing the message control button 7.
Output to. Furthermore, if the message is long, the next page of the message can be displayed each time the message control button 7 is pressed.

[Effects of the Invention] As explained above, the present invention provides an information storage device and an information control device for registering text message information corresponding to the telephone in an electronic exchange to which a multi-function telephone with a character display function can be connected. By reading the text message information and displaying it on the telephone according to the operation of the ID code from the called party, there is an effect that a text message service can be provided.
