Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a button telephone device in which various service functions of a telephone are temporarily rewritten to service functions of another telephone so that similar services can be received.

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION In recent years, key telephone devices have become increasingly electronic, and various service functions have increased and improved significantly. Furthermore, as key telephone devices have become larger, each person has come to use one telephone. For this reason, the individual service functions for each telephone have been enhanced, and for example, service functions such as individual shortcut dialer, individual office line incoming call setting, and office line callback are often provided.

Problems to be Solved by the Invention However, since these service functions are set and fixed for each telephone, the following problems arise.

1) Even if you register the individual speed dial on the phone you normally use, if you use a different phone, the individual speed dial will no longer be usable.

2) If you have to go to another department for a meeting, meeting, etc., and even if you have set up call forwarding to forward incoming calls to your phone to another department, the location of the meeting or meeting suddenly changes. If it changes, you will not be forwarded to that location and will have to reconfigure your call forwarding settings each time.

As described above, the conventional button telephone device has a problem in that the service functions provided for each telephone cannot be fully utilized.

The present invention solves these conventional problems and provides an excellent button telephone device that allows any telephone to temporarily receive the same service as a normally used telephone by performing simple operations. The purpose is to

Means for Solving the Problems In order to achieve the above object, the present invention provides a service function switching means in the telephone, and uses information from the switching means to control the contents of the telephone control means provided in the main device. By changing the key telephone device, it is possible to receive the same services as any telephone that constitutes the key telephone device.

Therefore, according to the present invention, with a simple operation, it is possible to receive the same service on any telephone as on the telephone that one normally uses, and the service functions prepared for each telephone can be used. It has the effect of being able to be fully utilized.

Embodiment FIG. 1 shows the configuration of an embodiment of the present invention, in which a main device 1 includes a central control section 2 that controls the entire button telephone device, and a telephone control memory that determines the service functions of each telephone. A data transmitting/receiving circuit 4 for communicating with the device 3 and each telephone 6 is housed therein, and each telephone 6 is connected to each other through a data line 5.

FIG. 2 shows the configuration of the telephone 6, in which the main device 1
a data transmitting/receiving circuit 7 for communicating with the telephone 6;
The telephone control circuit 8 includes a telephone control circuit 8, a keyboard 9 equipped with a 10-KEY dial, a service function changeover switch 10, and the like.

FIG. 3 shows the internal configuration of the telephone control storage device 3 provided in the main device 1, which includes a telephone function control section II,
It is divided into a service function storage section 12.

Next, the operation of the above embodiment will be explained. In the above embodiment, the service function changeover switch 1 provided on the telephone 6
When you press 0 and enter the telephone extension number of the other party whose service function you want to change using the keyboard 9, the telephone control circuit 8 detects this information and sends it to the main device l through the data transmission/reception circuit 7 and the data line 5. Send information.

The central control unit 2 in the main device 1 receives this information through the data transmitting/receiving circuit 4, and based on this information, the data of the corresponding telephone 6 is stored in the service function storage unit 12 of the telephone control storage device 3. It is transferred to the storage area of the corresponding telephone 6 in the control unit 11. For example, if the telephone with the telephone number "2" presses the service function changeover switch 10 and inputs "1" on the keyboard 9, the telephone with the telephone number "1" The service function data is transferred to the telephone control unit of the telephone 6 with telephone number "2".If you want to return the service function to its original function, press the service function switch again.

By pressing 10, the data is transferred as shown by the arrow (b) and the original service function is returned.

The service function storage unit 12 stores service function data for each telephone, such as the contents of individual speed dials, and the central control unit 2 transfers the data from the storage unit 12 to the telephone function control unit 11 and stores it. Therefore, the service function data of the telephone 6 with the telephone number '1'' is the same as the service function data of the telephone with the telephone number '2''.
1, the telephone 6 with the telephone number "2" can receive the same service as the telephone 6 with the telephone number "1".

As described above, the above embodiment has the advantage that, with a simple operation, the individual services set for each telephone can be switched so that they can be used on other telephones, which is very advantageous in practice.

Effects of the Invention As is clear from the above-described embodiments, the present invention is extremely advantageous in practice, since unique services set for each telephone can be effectively utilized on other telephones with simple operations. For example, if the service is a speed dial, you can temporarily change the speed dial setting on your phone so that it is available from another phone, and if the service is a callback. If necessary, use any telephone to call the central office line,
This is extremely advantageous in practical terms because the extension can be transferred to any telephone and answered by that telephone.
