Digital Telephone Answering Device And Method Of Testing Message Storage Memory Therein

View page
US Patent:
55880460, Dec 24, 1996
Filed:
Oct 23, 1995
Appl. No.:
8/546810
Inventors:
Stephen B. Knuth - Mission Viejo CA
Sanford M. Brown - Cardiff by the Sea CA
Mark J. Karnowski - Westminster CA
Assignee:
Casio PhoneMate, Inc. - Torrance CA
International Classification:
G11C 1134
G11C 2900
G06F 1100
H04M 164
US Classification:
379 67
Abstract:
A telephone answering device includes a digital recording and playback circuit for digitizing, recording and playing back a message from a telephone line; an audio random access memory for storing messages digitized by the digital recording and playback circuit; and a control unit, coupled to the audio random access memory. The control unit initially performs a test of only part of the memory in an amount sufficient to enable a user to perform predetermined basic functions, immediately after power is supplied to the device, without testing a remainder of the memory. Thereafter, a continuous repetitive series of tests of at least the remainder of the memory is performed while waiting for user input, to determine failed sections of the memory that are to be avoided during recording of a message. The failed sections of the memory, that are to be avoided during recording of a message after the determination, are marked. The user input is processed when it occurs, stopping performance of the continuous repetitive series of tests simultaneously with processing of the user input.

Voice Mail Digital Telephone Answering Device

US Patent:
54003938, Mar 21, 1995
Filed:
May 6, 1994
Appl. No.:
8/238986
Inventors:
Stephen B. Knuth - Mission Viejo CA
Sanford M. Brown - Torrance CA
Mark J. Karnowski - Garden Grove CA
Assignee:
PhoneMate, Inc. - Torrance CA
International Classification:
H04M 1100
US Classification:
379 88
Abstract:
A digital telephone answering device (DTAD) that allows messages to be forwarded to certain internal mailboxes. Random access memory (RAM) is flexibly and dynamically controlled by a microprocessor or controller. Audio signals in the form of voice messages are digitized and stored in the RAM. Messages can be sorted and allocated to specific mailboxes and made retrievable by pressing a button assigned to that mailbox. Messages can also be moved or re-assigned from a common message area to a certain mailbox or mailboxes. Outgoing messages are also stored in RAM and can be of sufficient number to have an outgoing message correspond to each incoming message storage area. The normal message recording and message playback functions of the DTAD may be activated after the call has been answered on the receiving side.

Method For System And Message Activation Based On Distinctive Ringing

View page
US Patent:
55771041, Nov 19, 1996
Filed:
May 6, 1994
Appl. No.:
8/238984
Inventors:
Stephen B. Knuth - Mission Viejo CA
Mark J. Karnowski - Garden Grove CA
James W. Mazzolini - Hawthorne CA
Sanford M. Brown - Torrance CA
Assignee:
Casio PhoneMate, Inc. - Torrance CA
International Classification:
H04M 342
US Classification:
379 67
Abstract:
A telephone answering device (TAD) determines the "distinctiveness" of an incoming ring signal, and responds accordingly. Distinctive ring features of some current telephone utilities have established ring patterns with plural ring signals occurring within a single ring cycle. Normally, one ring signal is present per ring cycle. In the distinctive ring TAD set forth herein, ring cycles with one or more ring signals are discriminated and responded to by playing a different outgoing message corresponding to the distinctiveness of the ring cycle. In a further enhancement, the TAD does not answer the incoming telephone call if the answer ring cycle (upon which the TAD is to answer the call) is cut short, indicating that the telephone call has been answered by a person.

Shared Line Answering System With Enhanced Extension Device Features

View page
US Patent:
54328446, Jul 11, 1995
Filed:
Jun 1, 1994
Appl. No.:
8/252954
Inventors:
Kenneth R. Core - Stanton CA
Mark J. Karnowski - Garden Grove CA
Stephen B. Knuth - Mission Viejo CA
Assignee:
PhoneMate, Inc. - Torrance CA
International Classification:
H04M 1102
US Classification:
379 67
Abstract:
A system of telephone answering devices includes a master telephone answering device (MTAD) and at least one (and often a plurality) of extension telephone answering devices (ETADs). If a telephone call is answered by someone, others nearby may be paged through the ETADs from any telephone. The ETADs can be temporarily disarmed so that they do not respond to tone codes that might otherwise activate them. When activated, the ETADs transmit back to the caller noticeably different ringback signals to indicate that the activated ETAD is responding to the caller's commands. For telephone utilities offering a distinctive ring service, the ETADs may respond to distinctive rings corresponding to the ETADs by usurping the function of and disabling the MTAD and by subsequently answering the telephone call.

Telephone Answering Device And Method For Screening Incoming Telephone Calls With Blocked Calling Party Identification Information

View page
US Patent:
57816131, Jul 14, 1998
Filed:
Jun 17, 1996
Appl. No.:
8/664528
Inventors:
Stephen B. Knuth - Mission Viejo CA
Mark J. Karnowski - Huntington Beach CA
Assignee:
Casio PhoneMate, Inc. - Torrance CA
International Classification:
H04M 156
US Classification:
379 67
Abstract:
A telephone answering device includes a line interface for connecting the telephone answering device to a telephone line and a ring detector, coupled to the telephone line, for detecting ringing signals sent from a telephone company central office. A calling party identification (CPID) detector, coupled to the telephone line, is provided for detecting CPID information. A controller controls the line interface to seize the telephone line immediately after the ring detector detects a first ring on the telephone line and the CPID detector detects that the CPID information is blocked. After the line interface seizes the telephone line, the telephone answering device plays an outgoing message to the caller and, thereafter, the caller may record a message for the telephone answering device owner. If the telephone answering device owner is present at the time of the call, he or she may simultaneously listen while the caller is leaving a message and determine the caller's identity despite the blocked CPID information. If the CPID detector detects that the CPID information is not blocked, the controller controls the line interface to seize the telephone line only after a predetermined number of rings occurs with no answer.

Shared Line Telephone Answering System With A Telephone Line-Powered Disconnect Module

View page
US Patent:
53923324, Feb 21, 1995
Filed:
May 27, 1992
Appl. No.:
7/890562
Inventors:
Kenneth R. Core - Stanton CA
Mark J. Karnowski - Garden Grove CA
Stephen B. Knuth - Mission Viejo CA
Assignee:
PhoneMate, Inc. - Torrance CA
International Classification:
H04M 164
H04M 172
US Classification:
379 67
Abstract:
A disconnect module for a system of telephone answering devices (TADs) sharing the same telephone line. The disconnect module is connected between the telephone line and a main telephone answering device (MTAD) which initially responds to incoming telephone calls by answering the incoming call. Extension telephone answering devices (ETADs) are selectively activated by caller-initiated DTMF tone codes. When one of the ETADs is activated, the disconnect module breaks the connection between the MTAD and the telephone line. The disconnect module maintains the broken connection until the ETAD finishes its call-answering cycle, or until the caller hangs up. When the MTAD can no longer interfere with the ETAD's reception of the call, the connection between the telephone line and the MTAD may be re-established so that the MTAD can answer the next incoming telephone call. The disconnect module is powered by the telephone line or may be incorporated into the MTAD.

Environmental Adaptive Mechanism For Channel Utilization In Cordless Telephones

View page
US Patent:
54188393, May 23, 1995
Filed:
Mar 22, 1993
Appl. No.:
8/034239
Inventors:
Stephen B. Knuth - Mission Viejo CA
Oded Yossifor - Torrance CA
Kenneth R. Core - Stanton CA
Assignee:
PhoneMate, Inc. - Torrance CA
International Classification:
H04M 1100
H04Q 700
US Classification:
379 61
Abstract:
A cordless telephone has an improved mechanism for scanning and selecting channels by adapting to the channel usage patterns of the local environment having a plurality of channels available for usage. A prioritized list of channels having the highest probability of being interference free is produced. The channels are prescanned during idle time, so quick acquisition of an available channel is possible. Accordingly to another feature, a scan subset comprising a first group of clear channels is selected upon system powerup. The available channels are scanned during the idle time to select a preferred channel subset which comprises channels which are the most interference free. A channel or channels within the preferred channel subset which experience no or little interference over an extended period of time then is assigned to a clear channel subset. The clear channel subset includes fewer channels than the preferred channel subset. Communication is carried out over a channel in the clear channel subset.
