A facsimile system having a paging receiver operable in connection with a radio pager, and process of automatically changing an operational mode of the facsimile system in one of a voice communication (TEL) mode or a data communication (FAX) mode through a telephone line, including the steps of periodically checking data received from a radio pager, and changing the operational mode upon receipt of predetermined data.

Disclosed is a facsimile apparatus equipped with an automatic answering telephone function, as well as a communication method in this apparatus. When a tone signal from a line is detected after the start of storage of a voice message in response to an incoming call, the voice message presently being recorded is not counted as a received message and a voice message received next is stored in the area in which storage has just been performed. Further, when a DTFM signal, which is a control signal of the automatic answering telephone, is detected, a transition is made to facsimile communication in response to a CNG signal. Thus, erroneous operation in facsimile communication due to a CNG signal recorded in the automatic answering telephone is prevented.

A device and a method for directing incoming calls from a single input telephone line to either a facsimile machine, a data modem, or a telephone is provided. The device and method provide for "isolating" both a facsimile machine and a data modem until after a predetermined delay period, thus preventing them to answer the call. If a person or answering machine has not answered the call within the delay period, an off-hook condition is simulated to the input telephone line, thus "answering" the call. The signal on the input telephone line is then detected. If the signal includes a DTMF digit, various functions are performed including resetting internal variables. If a facsimile handshake signal is detected, the facsimile machine is rung with a ring simulator. The facsimile machine can then read the incoming handshake signal and proceed in a conventional fashion. If, however, neither of these two signals are detected, and a telephone answering device has not answered the call, the data modem port is rung with the ring simulator. The data modem will then begin receiving the transmitted signal in a conventional fashion. If the call is answered during the delay period provided by the invention, and the transmission is a facsimile handshake signal, the call is automatically transferred to the waiting facsimile machine.

A communication apparatus includes a DC power supplying unit for supplying a DC power to the apparatus, the DC power supplying unit containing a calling signal generating unit for generating a calling signal; a control unit for outputting a control signal to control said DC power supplying unit; and a conversion unit for electrically-isolating supplying the control signal outputted from said control unit to the calling signal generating unit.

A communication apparatus 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 apparatus, communication is switched between speech communication, including voice answering communication, and data communication, including facsimile data communication, according to an intermittent pattern of a call signal from a switching network. Data corresponding to the intermittent pattern of a call signal is transmitted, data from a calling party side is recorded and character information corresponding to the intermittent pattern of a call signal is displayed.

A telephone terminal adapted for business or home use that includes the ability to receive and send facsimiles, a voice answering function and a computer modem. Various input and output devices may be used for the facsimile function. A voice annotated facsimile may be sent and received. At the same time the facsimile is viewed on a video monitor or ordinary television set, an accompanying voice message is heard through the sound system of the monitor or television set. The terminal has an architecture including a central processor and an internal bus structure to which several types of memory, various input-output devices and an interface with the telephone line are connected, among others.

If the facsimile machine on the called side detects a facsimile signal such as a CNG signal sent from the calling side after the initiation of the recording operation, the facsimile machine on the called side is switched to the facsimile operation. If the timing for switching to the facsimile operation is within a prescribed period from the initiation of the recording, the facsimile machine on the called side considers that a facsimile message is sent from the calling side without voice message. Then, the data recorded on the called side is erased. If the timing for switching to the facsimile operation is after the prescribed period from the initiation of the recording, the facsimile machine on the called side considers that a facsimile message is sent from the calling side after a voice message. In this case, the data recorded on the called side is maintained.

A facsimile machine includes a telephone set, a facsimile information processor for processing facsimile information which is to be transmitted to a party device via a communication line and facsimile information which is received via the communication line, and a first switch for selectively coupling the facsimile information processor and the communication line. The facsimile machine also includes a direct-current source for supplying a direct current to the telephone set, and a voice message recording apparatus for recording a voice message input via the telephone set. Further, the facsimile machine includes a second switch for coupling the telephone set to the direct-current source when the voice message input via the telephone set is recorded on the voice message recording apparatus and for alternatively coupling the telephone set to the communication line in a state where the telephone set is disconnected from the direct-current source.
摘要:
A terminal apparatus carries out both of facsimile communication and automatic telephone answering operation which has the response message circuit for sending first and second response messages to a telephone circuit responding to calling signal; the first response message makes a brief response, and then when the caller wishes to make voice message, by the second message it is informed to caller that recording operation for message will be carried out now.

A communication system is disclosed having a portable radio called receiver and a communication apparatus for calling this receiver. The portable radio called receiver includes a display and a tone generating circuit. The communication apparatus includes a determination circuit, a control circuit, a voice signal recording device, a facsimile device, a memory, and a data processing circuit. The determination circuit determines whether a signal entered through a telephone line is a facsimile signal or a voice signal. The memory stores display data indicating the reception of an image signal, display data indicating the reception of a voice signal, and telephone number data of the portable radio called receiver. The control circuit is responsive to the output of the determination circuit to select one of the plurality of display data stored in the memory. The data processing circuit modulates the calling number of the portable radio called receiver and the selected display data and transmits the same on the telephone line. With such a structure, the display of the portable radio called receiver can display whether the received signal of the communication apparatus is an image signal or a voice signal.
