[Problems to be solved by the invention]

As is apparent from the above description, in the conventional switching system, the calling terminal 2s has the called number DA, the called party name DN and the talk time T, and the called terminal 2d has the calling number SA, the calling party name SN and The talk time T is displayed unconditionally regardless of the intentions of the caller and the called party.

However, in some cases, the calling party or the called party may need to suppress the display of the called number DA, the called party name DN or the calling number SA, and the calling party name SN, respectively, in order to keep the call confidential. In a conventional switching system, it is impossible to specify a display item according to the intention of a calling party and a called party.

An object of the present invention is to allow a calling party or a called party to arbitrarily designate items displayed on a terminal device.

[Means for solving the problem]

 FIG. 1 is a diagram showing the principle of the present invention.

In FIG. 1, reference numeral 100 denotes a terminal device having display means 101, and reference numeral 200 denotes an exchange system comprising an exchange accommodating the terminal device 100. The terminal device 100 displays various types of information on incoming and outgoing subscribers.

Reference numeral 102 denotes a display item designation unit provided in the terminal device 100 according to the present invention.

Reference numeral 300 denotes a display control means provided in the exchange 200 according to the present invention.

The display control unit 300 specifies the display state of each information item on the display unit 101 provided in the own terminal device 100 and the display state of each information item on the display unit 101 provided in the partner terminal device 100, by specifying a display item. Each is controlled based on the designation from the means 102.

Therefore, the incoming and outgoing subscriber can specify the information items displayed on the own terminal device or the other terminal device as necessary, and the reliability and serviceability of the switching system are improved.

〔Example〕

Hereinafter, an embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings. Second
FIG. 3 is a diagram showing a switching system according to one embodiment of the present invention, FIG. 3 is a diagram showing a telephone terminal device according to one embodiment of the present invention, and FIG. 4 is an example of a display process in FIG. FIG. The same reference numerals indicate the same objects throughout the drawings.

2 and 3, the telephone terminal device 2 (the calling terminal 2s as necessary) is used as the terminal device 100 in FIG.
And the terminating terminal 2d), the digital exchange 1 is shown as the exchange 200 in FIG. 1, and the display 201 and the display control unit 2071 are shown as the display means 101 in FIG. A display item designation button X is provided as one of the function buttons 203 as the display item designation means 102 in FIG. 1, a display suppression unit 2072 is provided in the input / output control unit 207, and the display control in FIG. A display item control unit 132 is provided as a means 300 in the central control unit (CC) 13, and a display item specification table (DIT) 143.
Are provided in the main storage device (MM) 14.

Also in FIG. 2, the information that can be displayed on the calling terminal 2s is the called number DA, the called party name DN and the talk time T, and the called terminal 2d
The information that can be displayed in the caller ID is the calling number SA and the caller name SN.

In FIG. 2 to FIG. 4, when the calling party operates the calling button (not shown) in the function button 203s of the calling terminal 2s to make a call with the called party, and calls the digital exchange 1,
The input / output control unit 207s transmits a calling signal to the digital exchange 1 via the signal assembling / disassembling unit 211s and the signal transmitting / receiving unit 212s.

Subsequently, the caller gives the called terminal 2s the called number DA, the called party name DN and the talk time T, and the called terminal 2d the calling number SA and the caller name SN (each of which is referred to as a display item). In the case where all items are displayed as before, the destination number DA of the destination terminal 2d is selected by the numeric button 202 in the same manner as described above, but when the display of at least some items is suppressed, the destination number DA is provided in the function button 203. After operating the displayed item designation button X, a predetermined one-digit item designation numeral ds for designating an item to be displayed is inputted by the numeral button 202.

On the other hand, the display item designation table (DIT) 143 provided in the main storage device (MM) 14 of the digital exchange 1 has a calling terminal 2s
A combination of items displayed on the calling terminal 2s and the receiving terminal 2d is stored in advance in the item information k in correspondence with the item designation numeral ds input from.

In the display item specification table (DIT) 143, item information k = logic “1” is stored corresponding to the item whose display is suppressed, and item information k = logic “0” is stored corresponding to the item to be displayed. Have been.

For example, at the calling terminal 2s, the called number DA and the called party name DN
Is displayed, only the call time T is displayed, and the calling number SA and the calling party name SN are displayed on the destination terminal 2d. If the calling party inputs the item designation number ds = "0" ,
Item designation number ds = "0" in the display item designation table (DIT) 143
In response to this, item information k = logic "1" is stored in the called number DA and the called party name DN of the calling terminal 2s, the call time T of the calling terminal 2s, the calling number SA of the called terminal 2d, and the call. Item information k = logic “0” is stored in the user name SN.

Similarly, when the calling terminal 2s displays only the called number DA and suppresses the display of the called party name DN and the calling time T, and the called terminal 2d displays the calling number SA and the calling party name SN, If the user enters the item specification number ds = "1",
Item designation number ds = "1" in the display item designation table (DIT) 143
, The item information k = logic "1" is stored in the called number DA of the calling terminal 2s, the called party name DN and the talk time T of the calling terminal 2s, the calling number SA of the called terminal 2d, and the call. Item information k = logic “0” is stored in the user name SN.

Further, when the calling terminal 2s displays all the called number DA, the called party name DN and the talking time T, and the calling terminal SA and the calling party name SN are suppressed from being displayed on the called terminal 2d, the calling party is required If the designated number ds = “6” is to be entered, the called number DA of the calling terminal 2s and the called party name DN correspond to the item designated number ds = “6” in the display item designation table (DIT) 143. And talk time T
Stores the item information k = logic "1" and the calling number of the destination terminal 2d
Item information k = logic “1” is stored in the SA and the caller name SN.

Similarly, when the calling terminal 2s displays only the talk time T and displays the called number DA and the called party name DN, and the called terminal 2d displays the calling number SA and the calling party name SN, Assuming that the caller inputs the item designation numeral ds = "9", the item designation numeral ds in the display item designation table (DIT) 143
In response to "9", the item information k = logic "1" is added to the call time T of the calling terminal 2s, and the called number DA and the called party name DN of the calling terminal 2s, and the calling of the called terminal 2d. Number SA and Caller Name SN
Stores item information k = logic “0”.

Now, assuming that the caller operates the display item designation button X and then inputs the item designation number ds = "0", the input / output control unit 207s receives the digital signal via the signal assembling / disassembling unit 211s and the signal transmitting / receiving unit 212s. An operation signal of the display item designation button X and an item designation number ds = "0" are transmitted to the exchange 1.

In the digital exchange 1, a central control unit (CC)
13 is a subscriber circuit (SLC) 12a and a network (NW) 11
When a call signal from the calling terminal 2s is detected via the terminal (step S1 in FIG. 4), the display item control unit 132 is activated.

The activated display item control unit 132 subsequently monitors whether or not an operation signal of the display item designation button X arrives from the calling terminal 2s, and when the operation signal of the display item designation button X is transmitted (step S2). ), And subsequently receives and analyzes the item designation numeral ds transmitted (step S3), and the item designation numeral ds = "0"
Is identified, reference is made to the display item specification table (DIT) 143, and the item information k corresponding to the item specification number ds = "0"
= Display item in which logic "1" is stored, that is, called number DA and called party name DN in calling terminal 2s, and item information k = display item in which logic "0" is stored, ie, in calling terminal 2s The call time T, the calling number SA and the calling party name SN of the destination terminal 2d are determined (step S4).

As a result, when recognizing that the destination number DA in the calling terminal 2s should suppress the display (step S5), the display item control unit
132 edits the inhibition command J (DA) of the called number DA and transfers it to the calling terminal 2s via the network (NW) 11 and the subscriber circuit (SLC) 12a (step S6).

In the calling terminal 2s, when the input / output control unit 207s receives the suppression command J (DA) transferred from the digital exchange 1 via the signal transmission / reception unit 212s and the signal assembling / disassembling unit 211s, the display suppression unit 2072s is activated. The display control unit 2071s suppresses the display of the called number DA on the display 201s.

When the above-described process of suppressing the called number DA is completed, the central control unit (CC) 13 prepares to receive the called number DA transmitted from the calling terminal 2s, and prompts the calling terminal 2s to select the called number DA. A known calling process is performed (step S5).

In step S2, when the display item control unit 132 cannot detect the arrival of the operation signal of the display item designation button X from the calling terminal 2s, the caller performs all display on the calling terminal 2s and the called terminal 2d. Judge that there is no intention to deter the item,
Immediately shifts to calling processing.

Subsequently, when the caller selects the called number DA with the numeric button 202s, the input / output control unit 207s transmits the calling signal and the called number DA to the digital exchange 1 via the signal assembling / disassembling unit 211s and the signal transmitting / receiving unit 212s. However, the display of the called number DA on the display 201 by the display control unit 2071s is performed by the display suppression unit 2072s.
Has been deterred by

In the digital exchange 1, a central control unit (CC) 13 in a call processing state receives and analyzes a called number DA transmitted from a calling terminal 2s via a subscriber circuit (SLC) 12a and a network (NW) 11. Then, the known incoming call processing is executed (steps S8 and S9), the call control area (CDB) 142 in the main storage device (MM) 14 is captured, the calling number SA assigned to the calling terminal 2s and the received When the operation signal of the called number DA and the display item designation button X is received, the item designation number ds = "0"
(Ie, item information k =
Called number DA and called party name DN for calling terminal 2s corresponding to logic "1", and display items (ie, item information k = talk time T of calling terminal 2s corresponding to logic "0"; After storing the calling number SA and the caller name SN, the terminal 2d is selected and captured, and the network (NW) 11 and the subscriber circuit (SL) are captured.
C) Send an incoming call signal to the calling terminal 2s via 12b.

Central control unit (CC) 13 refers to name index table (ANT) 141 in main storage unit (MM) 14, and refers to called party name DN corresponding to called number DA and calling number corresponding to calling number SA. After searching for each of the caller names SN and storing them respectively in the call control area (CDB) 142,
The display of the called party name DN is suppressed for the calling terminal 2s.
That is, it is confirmed that the item information k = logic "1", the display information I (DN) including the called party name DN is not created, and the destination terminal 2d
, The calling number SA and the calling party name SN are displayed. That is, it is confirmed that the item information k = logic "0", and the calling number SA
The display information transfer unit 131 creates display information I (SA, SN) including the caller name SN and transmits the display information I (SA, SN) to the destination terminal 2d via the network (NW) 11 and the subscriber circuit (SLC) 12b.

In the calling terminal 2s, the input / output control unit 207s does not display the called party name DN on the display 201s because the display information I (DN) is not transmitted from the digital exchange 1. In the called terminal 2d, the input / output control unit 207d transmits an incoming call signal transmitted from the digital exchange 1 to a signal transmitting / receiving unit 212d.
When the signal is received via the signal assembling / disassembling section 211d, the signal source 206d is controlled to generate a calling signal, a calling signal is transmitted from the speaker 205d, the called party is displayed with an incoming call, and transmitted from the digital exchange 1. Display Information I
(SA, SN) are converted to a signal transmitting / receiving unit 212d and a signal assembling / disassembling unit.
When the call is received via 211d, the calling number sa and the caller name SN are extracted and displayed on the display 201d via the display control unit 2071d.

When the called party who has heard the ringing tone responds to the incoming call by operating a response button (not shown) in the function button 203d, the input / output control unit 207d transmits the signal via the signal assembling / disassembling unit 211d and the signal transmitting / receiving unit 212d. A response signal is transmitted to the digital exchange 1 and a built-in timer (not shown) is started to start measuring the talk time T, and the display 2 is displayed via the display control unit 2071d.
01d displays the talk time T.

In the digital exchange 1, a central control unit (CC) 13
Sends the response signal transmitted from the destination terminal 2d to the subscriber circuit (SL
C) When received via 12b and network (NW) 11, network (NW) 11 and subscriber circuit (SLC) 12a
A response signal is transferred to the calling terminal 2s via the network and a network (NW) 11 is controlled by a known method to set a communication path between the subscriber circuits (SLC) 12a and 12b. Enable 2d to talk.

On the other hand, in the calling terminal 2s, when the input / output control unit 207s receives the response signal transmitted from the digital exchange 1 via the signal transmitting / receiving unit 212s and the signal assembling / disassembling unit 211s,
The built-in timer (not shown) is activated to start measuring the call time T, and the call time T is displayed on the display 201s via the display control unit 2071s.

Note that, regarding the talk time T at the calling terminal 2s, since the suppression command J (T) is not transmitted from the digital exchange 1, the talk time T is displayed on the display unit 201a without being suppressed by the display suppression unit 2072s. .

When the call between the calling party and the called party is terminated and the call set between the calling terminal 2s and the called terminal 2d is released, the display suppression unit 2072s in the calling terminal 2s is released, and the digital exchange 1 Is also released, the display item specified by the caller using the display item designation button X and the item designation number ds (= "0") is released.

As is apparent from the above description, according to the present embodiment, the caller transmits the call signal from the calling terminal 2s, and then inputs the display item designation button X and the item designation number ds (= "0"). Thus, as expected by the caller, the display 201s of the calling terminal 2s suppresses the display of the called number DA and the called party name DN and displays only the talk time T, and the display 201d of the called terminal 2d , The calling number SA, the called party name DN, and the talk time T are all displayed.

FIGS. 2 to 4 are merely examples of the present invention. For example, the item designation numeral ds and the corresponding item information k are not limited to those shown in the drawings. Deformation is considered, but the effect of the present invention does not change in any case. Further, the display item designation button X and the item designation number ds are not limited to those input by the caller, but may be input by the caller.

FIG. 5 is a diagram showing a switching system according to another embodiment of the present invention.

5, a display item specification table (DIT) 144 is provided instead of the display item specification table (DIT) 143 shown in FIG.

In the display item specification table (DIT) 144, not only the display item corresponding to the item specification number dd input by the called party is indicated by the item information k, but also the called Until the caller answers and after the callee answers.
Display items are specified.

However, if the display is to be suppressed until the called party answers after receiving the call to the called terminal 2d, the called party inputs the display item designation button X and the item designation number dd independently of the incoming call to display the item. Must be specified, and as a result, in order to cancel the designation of the display item, it is necessary to perform the designation canceling operation independently of the incoming call. As described above, many other modifications are considered, but the effect of the present invention does not change in any case. Further, it goes without saying that the switching system to which the present invention is applied is not limited to the illustrated one.

〔The invention's effect〕

As described above, according to the present invention, in the exchange system,
The incoming and outgoing subscriber can specify the information items displayed on the own terminal device or the other terminal device as necessary, and the reliability and serviceability of the switching system are improved.
