Abstract

PURPOSE:To attain the correct input of a telephone number even for a person hard of seeing or at a fault of lighting by writing a telephone number the same as the write of a conventional character onto a character read sensor section built in a telephone set so as to connect the telephone set to the telephone line. CONSTITUTION:The telephone set is provided with a transmission reception control section 3 sending a dial signal corresponding to a given telephone number data to a subscriber line, a character read sensor section 4 generating a character data corresponding to a character written manually on a prescribed face, and a sensor control section 3 converting the character data into the telephone number data and giving the data to the control section 3. At first, a handset 1 is hooked up and the sensor section 4 built in the telephone set is traced by a pen or a finger as if to write a character. Then the control section 5 converts sensor input information 21 into dial information 20 and sent to the control section 3. The control section 3 converts the dial information 20 into dial information of a telephone line level and sends it to an exchange and when the opposite side is busy, the telephone line 10 is connected to reach the state able to be communicated with the opposite party.
