Abstract

PURPOSE:To attain quick and effective information communication even when the user leaves from the telephone set by making dialing with an opposite telephone number set in response to a set time and sending a prescribed message. CONSTITUTION:When a measured time is coincident with the set time information set to a time information storage memory 350b, a telephone number of a call destination stored in a telephone number storage memory 350c corresponding to the time information is used to make dialing and the incoming call is confirmed and a transmission voice message in a voice recording and reproducing IC 350a corresponding to the call destination telephone number is outputted to the destination. After the transmission voice message is sent, the voice message from the destination is stored corresponding to the telephone number of the destination. Thus, even when the user is absent leaving from the telephone set, an effective and quick information communication is implemented.

Description

[Detailed description of the invention] [Purpose of the invention] (Industrial application field) The present invention relates to a wireless telephone device such as a car telephone device.

When the keypad is pressed, this is recognized by the control unit 418.

Next, the operation of the call function using the timer in the thus configured car telephone device will be explained.

First, the registration operation for realizing the calling function using the timer will be explained based on the flowchart shown in FIG.

First, the user selects "rFNCJ,"# in key part 430.
, "7"", the registration mode is set (step 301).

Next, set the address of the person to call (Step 3)
02). For example, if the address to be set is “01”, the user can set this address using the key part 430.
rsTOJ rOJ rlJ”.The set address is displayed on the LCD display 452.
will be displayed. This display allows the user to confirm whether the input has been made correctly.

Next, time information of the time or time at which the call should be made is input (step 303). To input this time information, for example, if the input time is "6:15," the user can input "rOJ r6J"*""1""5" in key part 430.
"STO"" is entered by key-inputting. The time, which is the input time information, is displayed on the liquid crystal display 452. The user can confirm whether the input has been made correctly by this display. .

Next, a telephone number is input (step 304).

When inputting this phone number, for example, if the phone number to be input is “0”
425-XX-8688'', the user selects "rOJ r4J r2J r5J rXJ" in key part 430.
rXJ "6J r6J r6J r6J rs
The telephone number is entered by key-inputting "TOJ". The entered telephone number is displayed on the liquid crystal display 452. The user can check whether the telephone number has been entered correctly by this display.

Next, a voice message to be sent to the called party is input (step 305).

After the above-mentioned telephone number is input, the speaker 492 outputs the message "Please input a voice message." In addition, this notification may be displayed on the liquid crystal display 452 as "Please input a voice message."The voice message can be input by the user using the microphone 494 to tell the person to be calling, for example, "Click here." is AA. Since I am currently absent, I would like to state my requirements here.・・・・・・
By speaking and inputting the message . . . , the message is recorded in the voice recording/playback IC 350a. Thereafter, when the input of the message is finished, the user inputs "rsTOJ" in the key section 430, thereby ending the message recording. After this, the audio recording and playback IC
350a enters the playback state, and the recorded message is output from the speaker 492. The user can confirm the message by listening to the reproduced audio.

As a result, the time information "6:15" which is the time when the call should be made
"minute" is the time information storage memory 35 of the audio recording/reproduction processing section 350.
It is stored in the address “Ol” of 0b, and the phone number “042”
5-XX-6866” is stored in the address “Ol” of the telephone number storage memory 350c, and the voice message “
This is AA..." is the voice recording and playback I
The data is stored at address "01" of C350a, and these stored contents are stored in correspondence with each other using the same address. Note that an address corresponding to the above-mentioned stored voice message is set in the voice recording/playback IC 350a, and a voice message from the other party can be stored in this area.

After this, the LCD display 452 will display “Do you want to perform the next registration?”
” is displayed (step 306). If there is another registration, the process returns to step 301 and each operation described above is performed. If the user does not want to register, the user can press “EN” in the key part 430.
By key-inputting ``DJ'', the input is completed, and by key-inputting ``FNC''rcLRJ'', the registration mode is terminated (step 307).

Next, the operation of timer call origination for making a call at the above-mentioned registered time will be explained using the flowchart of FIG. 4.

First, when the device is in the standby state (step 401),
Time measurement by CP0331 is performed by time information storage memory 35.
It is checked whether it matches the time set to 0b (
Step 402). When the time information in the time information storage memory 350b, which is the time set here, matches the current time, the telephone number storage memory 3 corresponds to the address of the above-mentioned time information stored in the time information storage memory 350b.
A call is made using the telephone number stored in the address of 50C (step 403). Thereafter, when the called party receives a call and enters a conversation state (step 404), a voice message with an address corresponding to the address of the above-mentioned telephone number is reproduced and output from the voice recording and reproduction IC 350a. As a result, a voice message is sent (step 405).

After sending the above-mentioned voice message, the voice recording/playback C350a enters the recording state until the end of the call is confirmed, and records the voice message from the called party (step 406).

The recording of the voice message from the other party is stored in association with the above-mentioned address in correspondence with the voice message sent or the telephone number from which the call was made.

Therefore, in this embodiment, at the set time, a call is made using the set telephone number of the other party and a prerecorded voice message is output. After sending out the voice message, the voice message from the called party is stored in correspondence with the telephone number of the called party.

Therefore, even if the user is away from the wireless telephone device and is away, the user can send a predetermined message to a predetermined party at a predetermined set time, and furthermore, the message from the party is also stored. It is possible to communicate information effectively and quickly.

[Effects of the Invention] As explained above, the wireless telephone device of the present invention makes a call using the set telephone number of the other party in accordance with the set time, and also sends a predetermined message. Effective force 1 even in the case of absence far away from
It is possible to quickly communicate information.
