Abstract

PURPOSE: To facilitate the change of the operation of a cordless slave set by sending an electric signal from a signal sending circuit to the cordless slave set in accordance with the contents of a set function switch. CONSTITUTION: The on/off of a function provided in the slave set 8 is set to a function setting switch 16 installed in a charging table 15 for the cordless slave set 8. At the time of putting the slave set 8 on the charging table 15, the signal sending circuit 17 sends the electric signal to the signal detection circuit 13 of the slave set 8 through a contact point (a) of the external contact point 18 of the charging table 15 and the contact point (a) of the external contact point 14 of the slave set 8. The circuit 13 detects the electric signal and informs the control part 10 of the slave set 8 of the kind of the detected signal. The control part 10 coordinates a function desired to change setting and the contact points (a) to (e) of the external contact points 14 and 18 to set five kinds of functions. Then, the function setting of the slave set 8 can be changed without particular dial operation to the slave set 8.
