The image transmission / reception program may be provided from the outside via the communication IF 24, or may be provided by being stored in a storage medium such as a CD-ROM.

  FIG. 3 is a block diagram showing a functional configuration of the image transmission / reception apparatus 10 realized by executing the image transmission / reception program.

  As shown in FIG. 3, the image transmission / reception apparatus 10 of the present embodiment includes an image reading unit 31, an image processing unit 32, a page memory 33, a transmission unit 34, a user interface (UI) device 26, and transmission. And a management unit 41. The transmission management unit 41 includes a broadcast selection unit 35, a registration control unit 36, and a destination storage unit 37.

  In general, the image transmitting / receiving apparatus 10 includes a receiving unit that receives transmitted image data, an image forming unit that forms an image based on the image data received by the receiving unit, and the like. Description is omitted.

  The image reading unit 31 reads image data of a facsimile document to be transmitted. The image processing unit 32 performs image processing such as filter processing / binarization processing on the image data read by the image reading unit 31. The page memory 33 stores the image data after the image processing by the image processing unit 32 as image data to be transmitted to the transmission destination device.

  The broadcast selection unit 35 selects whether or not to perform broadcast transmission. Here, the broadcast transmission means that the same document is transmitted to a plurality of destinations by a single operation (transmission instruction).

  The destination storage unit 37 inputs the destination information of the facsimile number via the UI device 26 and stores it as a destination for transmitting the image data read by the image reading unit 31.

  When broadcast transmission is selected by the broadcast selection unit 35, the registration control unit 36 controls the destination storage unit 37 to permit registration of a plurality of destinations, and the broadcast selection unit 35 controls the broadcast transmission. When transmission is not selected, the destination storage unit 37 is controlled to prohibit registration of a plurality of destinations.

  The transmission unit 34 transmits the image data stored in the page memory 33 to the destination stored in the destination storage unit 37.

  Next, a specific example of the UI device 26 will be described with reference to FIG. Here, as an example of the UI device 26, a case in which the touch panel and various buttons are configured will be described.

  As shown in FIG. 4, the UI device 26 is provided with a broadcast button 71, a next destination button 72, a destination input window 73, a destination display window 74, a one-touch button, an abbreviated button, a numeric keypad, and the like.

  In the present embodiment, the broadcast selection unit 35 determines that the broadcast transmission is selected when the broadcast button 71 is on, and the broadcast button 71 is off when the broadcast button 71 is off. It is determined that the report transmission is not selected.

  In the present embodiment, the on / off switching of the broadcast button 71 is described as being performed by circulation by a single operation in which the on / off is switched each time the broadcast button 71 is pressed. A method may be used. For example, two buttons may be provided to designate broadcast transmission selection and broadcast transmission non-selection, respectively.

  The destination input window 73 is a window for setting a destination to which image data is to be transmitted, and the destination information set by the ten key or the like is displayed on the destination input window 73. When the next destination button 72 is pressed, the destination information set in the destination input window 73 is stored in the destination storage unit 37, moves to the destination display window 74, and the destination input window 73 displays a new next address. It becomes possible to set the destination.

  As a method for setting a destination, there are a method of directly inputting a facsimile number using a numeric keypad, a method of inputting by a one-touch button, and a method of inputting by an abbreviated number.

  When the destination is set by the one-touch button, the destination registered in the abbreviated number 001 can be set by one operation by pressing the “one-touch button (001)”. At this time, the destination input window 73 displays information related to the destination registered in the abbreviated number 001, and the user confirms the displayed destination information, so that there is no mistake in setting the destination using the one-touch button. Can be grasped.

  Further, when the destination is set by the abbreviated number, the destination registered in advance for the abbreviated number can be set by four operations by “abbreviated button” → 3 digit abbreviated number. In this case as well, as in the case of destination setting by the one-touch button, the user can display the destination address registered in advance for the input abbreviated number on the destination input window 73, so that the user can address by the abbreviated number. It is possible to grasp whether there is a mistake in the setting of.

Next, the operation of the image transmission / reception apparatus 10 of this embodiment will be described in detail with reference to the flowchart of FIG.
When setting a destination for facsimile transmission, designation of a destination is input by any one of a one-touch button, an abbreviated button and an abbreviated number, or an input using a numeric keypad (S101).

  Then, it is determined whether or not the registered destination number N already stored in the destination storage unit 37 is 1 or more (S102), and the registered destination number N is 0, that is, one destination is not registered. In this case, the designated destination is registered in the destination storage unit 37 (S104). Then, 1 is added to the value of the registered destination number N (S105), and the process ends. It is assumed that the registered destination number N is 0 as an initial value.

  In S102, when the registered destination number N is 1 or more, the destination selection unit 35 determines whether broadcast transmission is selected or not based on the on / off state of the broadcast button 71. Determine (S103).

  When it is determined in S103 that the broadcast transmission is selected, the registration control unit 36 permits the destination storage unit 37 to register the destination instructed to register, and the designated destination is stored in the destination storage unit 37. Stored (S104). Then, 1 is added to the value of the registered destination number N (S105), and the process ends.

  FIG. 6 shows a display example of the touch panel when a plurality of destination registrations are performed by the broadcast button 71 being turned on. Here, when the broadcast button 71 is turned on, the address “ΔΔΔ trading” entered in the destination input window 73 moves to the destination display window 74 when the next destination button 72 is pressed. An example is shown.

  If it is determined in S103 that broadcast transmission is not selected, the registration control unit 36 prohibits registration of the destination instructed to be registered to the destination storage unit 37. For this reason, the specified destination is not stored in the destination storage unit 37. Then, as shown in FIG. 7, the fact that the destination registration instruction is not accepted is displayed together with the reason for not accepting, and a display prompting to turn on the broadcast button 71 is performed.

  In the flowchart shown in FIG. 5, either the step of S102 or the step of S103 may be determined first. That is, the step of S103 for determining whether or not the broadcast transmission is selected may be performed before the step of determining whether or not the registered destination number N is 1 or more.

Next, another operation of the image transmission / reception apparatus 10 of the present embodiment will be described with reference to the flowchart of FIG.
In the flowchart of FIG. 5, when the registration control unit 36 prohibits registration of a plurality of destinations in the destination storage unit 37, the registration control unit 36 performs an operation to control to register only the first set destination. On the other hand, in the flowchart shown in FIG. 8, when the registration control unit 36 prohibits registration of a plurality of destinations in the destination storage unit 37, the currently set destination is deleted and set last. An operation in the case where control is performed so as to register only the destination will be described.

In the flowchart shown in FIG. 8, the operations from S101 to S105 are the same as those in the flowchart of FIG.
If it is determined in S103 that the broadcast transmission is not selected, the registration control unit 36 performs processing to delete the destination already registered in the destination storage unit 37 and replace it with the instructed destination. (S107). Then, the fact that the registered destination has been changed is displayed on the touch panel (S108).

  The operation shown in FIG. 8 will be described with reference to the examples of FIGS. In the example of FIGS. 9 and 10, description will be made assuming that the broadcast button 91 is off.

  In this case, in FIG. 9, the destination “XXX Corporation” has already been registered and displayed in the destination display window 74. Here, as shown in FIG. 9, when the destination “Δ △△ Trading” is input to the destination input window 73 and the next destination button 72 is pressed, as shown in FIG. 10, the destination is set first. The address “XXX Corporation” is deleted and the address “ΔΔΔ Trading” is displayed in the address display window 74.

  When the one-touch button is pressed, a function of pressing the next destination button 72 → setting destination information is executed. Also, when the abbreviated button is pressed and a three-digit abbreviated number is input, the function of pressing the next destination button 72 and setting destination information is executed.

  Therefore, if the broadcast button 71 is turned on, a plurality of destinations can be set by continuously pressing the one-touch button. Also, a plurality of destinations can be set by repeatedly inputting the abbreviated button → the abbreviated number.

  Even in such a case, in this embodiment, if the broadcast button 71 is turned off so that a plurality of destinations cannot be set, the destination contents are not registered one after another even if the one-touch button is operated. Can be confirmed sequentially. In addition, even when the abbreviated button → the abbreviated number is repeatedly input, it is possible to sequentially confirm the destination contents without registering the destinations one after another.

  That is, according to the image transmitting / receiving apparatus 10 of the present embodiment, it is possible to differentiate the operation of pressing the one-touch button. Specifically, when the broadcast button 71 is in an off state, the one-touch button can be used for destination search, and when the broadcast button 71 is in an on-state, the one-touch button can be used for destination input / Can be used for destination instructions.

  When the broadcast button 71 is turned off while a plurality of destinations are registered because the broadcast button 71 is turned on, all registered destinations are cleared. However, if there is only one registered destination with the broadcast button 71 turned on, it is not necessary to clear the registered destination even if the broadcast button 71 is turned off.

  Furthermore, when group registration is performed in which a plurality of destinations are registered as one destination group (destination group), even when one group number is designated, a plurality of destinations are designated. That is, when the broadcast button 71 is off, the registration control unit 36 can register the destination group as a destination even if a group number of a group in which a plurality of destination information is registered is designated. I can't do it.

  The destination control unit 36 may control the display of the destination group on the display unit of the UI device 26 when registration of the destination group is prohibited.

[Second Embodiment]
Next, an image transmission / reception apparatus according to the second embodiment of the present invention will be described.

  A functional configuration of the image transmitting / receiving apparatus 10a of the present embodiment is shown in a block diagram of FIG. In FIG. 11, the same components as those in FIG. 3 are denoted by the same reference numerals, and the description thereof is omitted.

  The image transmission / reception device 10a according to the present embodiment has a structure in which the transmission management unit 41 is replaced with a transmission management unit 42 with respect to the image transmission / reception device 10 according to the first embodiment illustrated in FIG.

  Further, the transmission management unit 42 in this embodiment has a configuration in which the registration control unit 36 is replaced with a transmission control unit 38 with respect to the transmission management unit 41 in the first embodiment shown in FIG.

  In the present embodiment, the transmission control unit 38 permits the transmission unit 34 to transmit to a plurality of destinations when the broadcast selection unit 35 selects the broadcast transmission, and the broadcast selection unit 35 allows the transmission to be performed. When transmission is not selected, the transmission unit 34 is prohibited from transmitting to a plurality of destinations.

Next, the operation of the image transmission / reception apparatus 10a of this embodiment will be described in detail with reference to the flowchart of FIG.
First, the destination storage unit 37 receives an input of a destination via the UI device 26 such as a touch panel, and registers the received destination (S201). Then, the image to be transmitted is read by the image reading unit 31, and a transmission start instruction is given (S202). Then, the broadcast selection unit 35 determines whether broadcast transmission is selected (S203).

  When broadcast transmission is selected in S203, the transmission control unit 38 permits transmission to the transmission unit 34, and the transmission unit 34 performs page memory for the destination registered in the destination storage unit 37. Transmission of the image data stored in 33 is started (S204).

  If broadcast transmission is not selected in S203, the transmission control unit 38 prohibits the transmission unit 34 from transmitting to multiple destinations. Therefore, when the number of registered destinations N, which is the number of destinations registered in the destination storage unit 37, is singular (one) (S205), the transmission unit 34 starts transmission (S204). However, when the number of registered destinations N in the destination storage unit 37 is plural (S205), the transmission unit 34 does not accept the start of transmission and notifies that (S206).

  The determination of the broadcast transmission selection in the broadcast selection unit 35 may be performed before the document reading by the image reading unit 31. In addition, notification of permission / prohibition of broadcast transmission by the transmission control unit 38 may be performed not to the transmission unit 34 but to the image reading unit 31. As a result, the image reading unit 31 starts reading a document triggered by the broadcast transmission permission notification from the transmission control unit 38.

  In the flowchart of FIG. 12, it has been described that transmission is performed even when the number of registered destinations is one when broadcast transmission is selected, but registration is performed even when broadcast transmission is selected. If the number of destinations is one, there is a possibility of erroneous transmission.

  For example, there is an image transmission / reception apparatus having a chain dial function in which a part of a facsimile number is registered for an abbreviated number or a one-touch button, and destination information is input by an operation of pressing a one-touch button and inputting a number using a numeric keypad. In such a chain dial function, if a key is pressed after specifying an abbreviated number or pressing a one-touch button, it is recognized as a chain dial. Therefore, even if the user intends to register two destinations, it is registered as one destination. It may be done. In such a case, if transmission is performed to a registered destination, an erroneous transmission or a transmission error occurs.

For this reason, transmission may not be performed when the number of registered destinations is one although broadcast transmission is selected. FIG. 13 shows a flowchart for realizing such processing.
In the flowchart shown in FIG. 13, the operations from S201 to S206 are the same as those in the flowchart of FIG.

  In the flowchart of FIG. 13, if it is determined in S203 that broadcast transmission is not selected, it is determined whether or not the registered destination number N is one (S207). If the registered destination number N is two or more in S207, transmission is started (S204).

  However, when the number of registered destinations N is 1 in S207, the transmission unit 34 does not accept the transmission start, and is notified of this as shown in FIG. 14, for example (S206). In addition, when performing transmission by one item, it is displayed to the user that the broadcast button 71 needs to be turned off.

[Third embodiment]
Next, an image transmission / reception apparatus according to a third embodiment of the present invention will be described.
The functional configuration of the image transmission / reception device 10b of this embodiment is shown in the block diagram of FIG. In FIG. 15, the same components as those in FIG. 11 are denoted by the same reference numerals, and the description thereof is omitted.

  The image transmission / reception device 10b according to the present embodiment has a structure in which the transmission management unit 42 is replaced with a transmission management unit 43 with respect to the image transmission / reception device 10a according to the second embodiment illustrated in FIG.

  Further, in the transmission management unit 43 in the present embodiment, the broadcast selection unit 35 is replaced with a destination number reception unit 39 and a determination unit 40 in contrast to the transmission management unit 42 in the second embodiment shown in FIG. It becomes the composition.

The destination number receiving unit 39 receives in advance the number of destinations to be transmitted.
The determination unit 40 determines whether the number of destinations received by the destination number reception unit 39 matches the number of registered destinations that is the number of destinations registered in the destination storage unit 37.

  The transmission control unit 38 in the present embodiment transmits to the transmission unit 34 when it is determined that the number of destinations received in advance by the determination unit 40 and the number of registered destinations in the destination storage unit 37 do not match. If it is determined that the number of destinations received in advance by the determination unit 40 matches the number of registered destinations in the destination storage unit 37, the transmission unit 34 is permitted to transmit.

Next, the operation of the image transmission / reception device 10b of this embodiment will be described in detail with reference to the flowchart of FIG.
First, the destination number receiving unit 39 receives the number of destinations to which images are to be transmitted from the user (S301). For example, when a user intends to send an image to three destinations by broadcast transmission, three destinations are registered in the destination number receiving unit 39 as the number of destinations to be transmitted.

  Next, destination information to which an image is to be transmitted is registered in the destination storage unit 37 using a one-touch dial, an abbreviated number, a numeric keypad, or the like (S302).

  When a transmission start instruction is issued (S303), the determination unit 40 determines the number of destinations received by the destination number receiving unit 39 and the number of registered destinations that are the number of destinations registered in the destination storage unit 37. It is determined whether or not they match (S304).

  In S304, when it is determined that the preset number of destinations matches the number of registered destinations, the transmission control unit 38 permits the transmission unit 34 to perform transmission. Therefore, the transmission unit 34 starts transmission to the destination registered in the destination storage unit 37 (S305).

  If it is determined in S304 that the preset number of destinations and the number of registered destinations do not match, the transmission control unit 38 prohibits the transmission unit 34 from transmitting. Then, for example, as shown in FIG. 17, notification that the transmission start is not accepted is notified (S306).

[Modification]
In the above embodiment, it is described that all image transmission / reception devices are provided with an image transmission function and an image reception function. However, the present invention is applicable to an image transmission device having only an image transmission function. The same can be applied. An image transmission / reception system can be configured if there is at least one image transmission device and at least one image reception device.

  In the above embodiment, a case where the present invention is applied to an image transmission / reception system such as a facsimile machine that transmits image data read by an image reading unit to a partner apparatus via a communication line such as a telephone line will be described. However, the present invention can be similarly applied to an Internet facsimile (iFAX) apparatus that transmits image data to a destination apparatus via the Internet. Further, the object to be transmitted / received is not limited to image data, but can be similarly applied to any transmitting / receiving apparatus that transmits data to a specified destination, such as an electronic mail transmitting / receiving apparatus that transmits / receives electronic mail. Is possible.

  Further, the present invention is not limited to the case where data is transmitted to a designated destination, and the same applies to a concentrator (multi-polling) device that extracts data from a plurality of designated destination devices. It can be applied to. Here, polling means a function of retrieving various data such as document data and image data stored in a designated counterpart apparatus.
