Abstract

PURPOSE:To attain saving of maintenance personnel number, wide operation of slave station, quick processing of charging information and maintenance service by means of quick traffic information collection by utilizing the existing signal line so as to transfer the traffic information of a slave station or slave station information such as detailed charging information to a terminal station. CONSTITUTION:A central controller 2 stores slave station information (for example, traffic information or detailed charging information) to a temporary storage device 3 by slave station 1 at every occurrence of information. Then the central controller 2 reads the slave station information from the temporary storage device 3 at every prescribed time to start a common line signal device 4 and to send the slave station information to a terminal station 5 via an inter- station signal line 9. The central controller 6 of the terminal station 5 receives the slave station information of the slave station 1 via a common line signal device 8 and stores it in the central storage device 7. The stored slave station information is outputted as required succeedingly and subjected to statistic processing.

Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION [Field of Industrial Application] The present invention relates to a slave station information transfer system for transmitting various information in a slave station to a terminal station.

[Conventional technology]

Conventionally, to transfer information from a slave station to a terminal station, the slave station once stores the information on a storage medium (eg, magnetic tape), and maintenance personnel periodically send the storage medium to the terminal station or collect it.

[Problem that the invention seeks to solve]

The above-mentioned conventional slave station information transfer method has problems such as the need to secure maintenance personnel, collection time is likely to be delayed, and there is a possibility of information collection errors.

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION An object of the present invention is to provide a rapid, accurate, and economical slave station information transfer system that overcomes the problems of conventional slave station information transfer systems.

[Means for solving problems]

The slave station information transfer method of the present invention is a slave station information transfer method for a switching network including a terminal station and a slave station located below the terminal station, wherein the slave station has a temporary storage device for temporarily storing slave station information and a common line signaling device. A central storage device and a common line signaling device that transmit the accumulated slave station information to the terminal station at regular intervals under the control of a central control unit, and the terminal station stores the slave station information sent by the slave station. It is configured to include.

〔Example〕

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

FIG. 1 is a block diagram of an embodiment of the present invention.

In the slave station 1, the central controller 2 stores slave station information (for example, traffic information or detailed billing information, etc.) in the temporary storage device 3 each time the information is generated. Next, the central controller 2 reads slave station information from the temporary storage device 3 at regular intervals, activates the common line signaling device 4, and sends the slave station information to the terminal station 5 via the inter-office signal line 9. The central control device 6 of the terminal station 5 receives the slave station information of the slave station 1 through the common line signal device 8 and stores it in the central storage device 7. The stored slave station information is outputted and statistically processed as needed thereafter.

〔Effect of the invention〕

As explained above, the present invention utilizes existing signal lines to transfer slave station information such as traffic information or detailed billing information of the slave station to the terminal station, thereby reducing the number of maintenance personnel.
This has the effect of making it possible to operate a wide range of slave stations, quickly process billing information, and provide maintenance services by quickly collecting traffic information.
