Abstract

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To more speedily reset a speech path control memory by eliminating a complicated activation procedure with a resetting procedure or the like, concerning a speech path device having a backup memory for storing speech path path data. SOLUTION: Speech path control data to a speech path part 1 are written from a control line 4 into a speech path control memory 12 and at the same time, the same contents are written in a non-volatile memory 14 as well. At the time of turning on a power source again after power source off of the speech path part 1 caused by any factor, all the speech path path data in the non-volatile memory 14 are written in the speech path control memory 12.

As described above, by using the non-volatile memory for the backup of the communication path control memory, the time required for restoration after the power is turned off can be reduced by the path setting information backed up on the current magnetic disk. It can be shortened compared to the method of restoring to the original. In addition, by providing a non-volatile memory in the communication path unit, compared to the conventional method of providing a non-volatile memory for backing up the communication path data in the conventional communication path control unit, the power is automatically restored to the communication path control memory by hardware after the power is restored. The communication path data can be reset, and the time required to reset the communication path data can be reduced.

Further, since all paths are backed up, regardless of the type of path such as a dedicated line path, a semi-fixed path, and a call rescue path, not only these but also all path information are held. In addition, since backup is always possible, which is impossible with a backup using a magnetic disk, all paths immediately before the power is turned off are quickly reset at the time of restoration after the power is turned off.

When a non-volatile memory is used as the communication path control memory, when the power is turned on again after the power is turned off, the communication path control memory holds the communication path data immediately before the power is turned off. There is no need to reset road path data, and the time required for system restoration can be reduced. In addition, since a non-volatile memory is used as a communication channel control memory, it is possible to configure the communication device with a smaller scale than conventional hardware. It is also possible to improve call quality.
