摘要:
The invention concerns a communication apparatus comprising:
detection means for detecting plural kinds of ringing signals from a communication line to which a plurality of identification information are assigned; discrimination means for discriminating whether or not a calling party is a data communication terminal, in accordance with a signal from the calling party; data communication means for performing a data communication; and speech communication means for performing a speech communication; characterized in that it comprises: control means for selecting one of a first mode to perform the speech communication and a second mode to selectively perform the data communication or the speech communication in accordance with a result of the discrimination by said discriminating means, in accordance with the kind of ringing signal detected by said detection means.
摘要:
A communication apparatus is disclosed which utilizes a distinctive ringing pattern service provided by a switching network for switching speech communication to and from data communication and for telling who is to answer an incoming call. In the communication apparatus: switch means switches speech communication to and from data communication; control means controls the switching means according to an intermittent pattern of a call signal from a switching network; the control means includes voice answering means and controls the voice answering means according to an intermittent pattern of a call signal; the control means also includes data communication means including facsimile data communication, and controls the data communication means so as to transmit data corresponding to an intermittent pattern of a call signal; record means records data from a calling party side; and display means displays character information corresponding to an intermittent pattern of a call signal.
