<p>A telephone answering and message recording system comprises a microphone (4), an analog-digital converter (6) for converting the analog speech signal of the microphone (4) to a digital signal, a digital memory (M1, M2, M3, M4, MEM1-MEMn) for storing the digital speech signal from the converter (6), a digital-analog converter (7) for re-converting the digital signal of the output of the memory to an analog signal, and a speaker (5) coupled to the output of the digital-analog converter (7). The system also comprises a PB (push button) code receiver (40) for detecting a PB code which is the combination of two frequencies. The operational mode and/or the memory to record or reproduce speech is switched by the particular PB code. The system may operate in a first, fixed answering, mode in which a fixed answer recorded in the memory is transmitted to a remote subscriber or in a second, adaptive oral communication, mode in which speech recorded in the memory can be revised and/or transmitted to a remote subscriber through a telephone line. In the latter mode, two remote persons may communicate with each other through the system even when those two persons do not call the system simultaneously. </p> |
