Further, in the invention described in claim (2), it is possible to instruct the provision of a service regardless of the communication state.

Furthermore, the invention described in claim (3) also corresponds to a service provided by a communication network that proceeds in a conversational manner with the user, in which the service sequence is advanced by inputting numbers etc. according to guidance. You can receive services with one touch.

[Embodiment 1] FIG. 1 shows a first embodiment of the present invention, in which 1 is an input means such as a button for inputting a dial number of a service provided by a communication network NW, and 2 is the input means 1. 3 is an instruction means such as a button for instructing a service provided by the communication network NW; 4 is a memory for capturing the line for the communication network NW;
This is a communication network control means that has functions such as releasing a captured line.

FIG. 2 shows an example of the appearance of the telephone according to the invention.

FIG. 3 shows the dial information registration means of this invention. That is, after pressing the button R for registration, pressing the buttons in the order of 1, 2, and 3, and finally pressing the button R again, the registration of °°123'' will be performed in the memory 2. .

FIG. 4 shows the signal sequence of the first embodiment of the invention.

To operate this, dial information input from the input means 1 is stored in the memory 2 in advance. When the line to which the telephone of the present invention is connected is idle, when the instruction means 3 is operated, the dial information stored in the memory 2 is read out, and the communication network control means 4 activates the line. A dial tone (DT) is emitted from the communication network NW, and the dial information read from the memory 2 is transmitted to the communication network NW. Further, after confirming the completion of transmission, the communication network control means 4 releases the line.

Because of this operation, it is possible to control the services provided by the network with a single touch of the instruction means 3.

[Embodiment 2] FIG. 5 shows a second embodiment of the present invention, in which reference numeral 5 denotes hook switch monitoring means, which detects the end of a call by monitoring the hook switch (not shown) of the telephone. Reference numeral 6 denotes an instruction memory, which stores information when the instruction means 3 is operated, and reads out the dial information stored in the memory 2 when the call ends. Other details are the same as in Figure 1.

FIG. 6 shows a signal sequence of a second embodiment of the invention.

To operate this, when the instruction means 3 is operated during a call, the operation is stored in the instruction memory 6,
When the end of the call is detected by the hook switch monitoring means 5, as in the first embodiment, the dial information stored in the memory 2 is read out, and the line is captured by the function of the communication network control means 4. The read dial information is transmitted to the communication network NW. Furthermore, after the transmission, the communication network control means 4 opens the line.

Because of this operation, it is possible to instruct service provision regardless of the communication state.
