Abstract

PURPOSE:To reference charging information at any time from a terminal equipment by providing a means sending the charging information to a storage device accommodation circuit from a central controller of an exchange, a means editing and storing the charging information corresponding to a terminal equipment and a means sending storage information upon a request to a terminal equipment. CONSTITUTION:The charging information corresponding to a call of telephone terminal sets 40,41 is counted by a CPU 20, sent to a charging information controller 31 of a storage device accommodation circuit 30 via a bus 71, edited into relevant charging information and stored in a storage device 32. When a data terminal equipment 45 sends a data transmission request to the CPU 20 via a data terminal equipment accommodation circuit 55, the CPU 20 controls a switch 10 to set a path 1, the controller 31 of the storage device accommodation circuit 30 reads the information from a memory 32, sends it to a data terminal equipment 45 and the charging information is displayed on the data terminal equipment. Through the constitution above, the user can reference the charging information at any time from the data terminal equipment connecting to the exchange.

Description

[Detailed description of the invention] [Industrial application field] The present invention relates to a billing information reference method.

[Conventional technology]

Conventionally, billing information can only be referenced from a billing device directly connected to the central control device of the exchange.

FIG. 2 is a configuration example showing a conventional billing information reference method.

The charging device 80 is connected to the central control device 20 of the exchange,
The billing control device 812 is composed of a billing billing information reference system and a display device 83. A telephone terminal 40 connected to the main switch 10 of the exchange via a telephone terminal accommodation circuit 50.51
, 41 is sent from the central controller 20 to the charging device 80, and is stored in the charging information storage device 82/\\ by the charging determination device 81 of this charging device 80, and the charging information is displayed on the display device 83. be done.

[Problem that the invention seeks to solve]

In the conventional billing information reference method described above, since billing information can only be referenced from the billing device directly connected to the central control unit of the switch, billing information can only be referenced by a person near the switch, such as a maintenance person. The problem is that it is limited to people who

[Means for solving problems]

The billing information reference system of the present invention is provided with means for transmitting billing information counted by the central control unit of the exchange to a storage device accommodating circuit connected to a main switch of the exchange; comprising means for editing billing information into billing information not compatible with telephone terminals and storing the same; and means for sending the accumulated billing information to the data terminal in response to a billing information display request from a data terminal connected to the exchange;
The configuration is such that the data terminal refers to the accumulated billing information through the main switch.

〔Example〕

Next, the present invention will be explained with reference to the drawings.

Referring to No. 11 showing an embodiment of the billing information reference method of the present invention, telephone terminals 40 and 41 are connected to telephone terminal accommodation circuits 50 and 41.
．． 51. A telephone terminal accommodating circuit 0.51 is housed in the main switch 10 of the exchange. Further, the data terminal 45 is connected to a data terminal accommodating circuit 55, and is accommodated in the main switch 10 of the exchange like the telephone terminals 40 and 41. The central control device 20 also has an internal control bus 70.
Communication is achieved by controlling the main switch 10, the telephone terminal accommodation circuits 50, 51, the data terminal unaccommodated circuit I@55, and the storage device accommodation circuit 30 via the terminals 71 and 72.

The storage device accommodation circuit 30 is composed of a billing + R report control device 31 and a storage device 32, and is connected to the main switch 10 of the exchange.

In this configuration, billing information corresponding to the calls of the telephone terminals 40, 41 is counted by the central controller 20, and sent to the billing information control device 31 of the storage device accommodation circuit 30 via the internal control bus 71. The billing information is edited and stored in the storage device 324. Here, when displaying billing information on the data terminal 45 accommodated in the main switch 10, a data communication request from the data terminal 45 with the storage device accommodation circuit 30 that has accumulated billing information is sent via the data terminal accommodation circuit 55. to the central control device 20. The central control unit 20 controls the main switch 1.0 to set up a data communication path (path 1), and requests charging information to be displayed from the data terminal 45 through the established slave communication path. The billing information control device 31 of the accommodation circuit 30 reads billing information from the storage device 32 and sends the billing information to the data terminal 45 through the set data communication path. As a result, billing information is displayed on the data terminal 45.

〔Effect of the invention〕

As explained above, according to the present invention, a user can refer to billing information at any time from a data terminal connected to an exchange.
