Abstract

PURPOSE:To automatically transfer a call to a facsimile equipment near by only by performing a button operation by providing a facsimile transfer button at a multifunctional telephone set, and providing a memory on which the extension number of a transfer destination facsimile equipment corresponding to the extension number of the telephone set. CONSTITUTION:The extension number of the transfer destination facsimile equipment 5 is registered on a facsimile extension number memory 8 by dialing the extension number of the transfer destination facsimile equipment 5 with a specific number to request the registration of the transfer destination facsimile equipment 5 by the subscriber of the multifunctional telephone set 1. When a request to transfer to the facsimile equipment 5 is issued in performing speech with another subscriber, the facsimile transfer button provided at the multifunctional telephone set 1 is operated. A central control unit 6 receives the information of the button operation from a subscriber circuit 2, and reads out the extension number of the facsimile equipment 5 recorded corresponding to the extension number of the multifunctional telephone set 1 from the facsimile extension number memory 8, and calls the facsimile equipment 5. The subscriber of the multifunctional telephone set 1 interrupts the speech and completes a transfer operation.

Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION [Field of Industrial Application] The present invention relates to an automatic switching system with an extension transfer function, in which the switch accommodates multi-function telephones.

[Conventional technology]

Conventionally, in this type of automatic switching system, a call is transferred by operating a transfer button on a multifunction telephone and inputting the extension number of the transfer destination, regardless of whether the transfer destination is a facsimile extension or a general extension.

[Problem to be solved by the invention]

With the conventional extension transfer method described above, the transfer cannot be made unless you manually specify the destination extension number from the telephone, so even if you want to transfer to the nearest facsimile, you have to press the transfer button and call the extension in the same way as transferring to a general extension. The drawback is that it is time-consuming and inconvenient to enter the number.

[Means to solve the problem]

The automatic switching system with facsimile extension transfer function of the present invention includes a multi-function telephone equipped with a facsimile transfer button, a facsimile extension number memory, and a special number for a subscriber of the multi-function telephone to request registration of a forwarding destination facsimile. When the extension number of the forwarding destination facsimile is dialed, the dialed extension number of the forwarding destination facsimile is stored in the facsimile extension number memory in correspondence with the extension number of this multifunction telephone. The exchange has control means for transferring an ongoing call to a facsimile whose extension number is stored in the facsimile extension number memory when the subscriber operates the facsimile transfer button.

[Effect]

Therefore, calls can be automatically transferred to the nearest facsimile machine simply by pressing a button from a multi-function telephone.
Transfer operations become easier and faster.

〔Example〕

Next, embodiments of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings.

FIG. 1 is a block diagram showing an embodiment of an automatic switching system with a 77 mm extension transfer function according to the present invention, and FIG. 2 is an external view showing the configuration of a multifunction telephone 1. As shown in FIG.

In this embodiment, the exchange has a subscriber circuit 2.4, a call path switch 3, a central control unit 6, a main storage device 7 having a facsimile extension number memory 8, and a facsimile transfer button 9. Multi-function phone P31 and facsimile 5
It accommodates.

The facsimile extension number memory 8 contains the multifunction telephone Ia1.
When a subscriber dials the extension number of the forwarding destination facsimile 5 together with a special number requesting the registration of the forwarding destination facsimile 5, the dialed forwarding destination facsimile corresponds to the extension number of the multifunction telephone 1. 5 extension number is stored.

Next, the operation of this embodiment will be explained.

Ma f1 multi-function phone! Subscriber No. 11 dials the extension number of the forwarding destination facsimile 5 along with a special number requesting the registration of the forwarding destination facsimile 5, and stores the extension number of the forwarding destination facsimile 5 in the facsimile extension number memory 8.
I am registered with 9. In this state, if the subscriber of multi-function telephone 1 is talking with another subscriber, the facsimile 5
When the subscriber of the multifunction telephone 1 is requested to transfer the facsimile to the multifunction telephone Ifi1, the subscriber operates the facsimile transfer button 9 installed on the multifunction telephone Ifi1.

The subscriber circuit 2 for the multifunction telephone 1 detects this button operation and notifies the central control 211 device 6 of the button operation.

The central control device 6 receives the button operation information from the subscriber circuit 2, and extracts from the facsimile extension number memory 8 the extension number of the facsimile 5 stored in correspondence with the extension number of the multifunction telephone 1. , calls the facsimile 5 via the subscriber circuit 4.

The subscriber of the multi-function telephone 1 either cancels the call at this point, or after confirming the response from the Noaximili 5, cancels the call and completes the transfer operation.

Also, if the facsimile 5 is in use and cannot respond,
The central υ1@device 6 displays the inability to respond to the multifunction telephone R1, and then displays the multifunction telephone F! 11 subscribers will be notified.

(Effects of the Invention) As explained above, the present invention provides a multi-function telephone with a facsimile transfer button, and
By providing a facsimile extension number memory that stores the extension number of the forwarding destination facsimile, calls can be automatically forwarded to the nearest facsimile machine simply by pressing a button from a multi-function telephone, making the forwarding operation simple. This has the effect of making it faster.
