专利汇可以提供Elapsed-time telephone monitor system专利检索,专利查询,专利分析的服务。并且A telephone monitor system having a plurality of monitors each connected in parallel to a separate telephone line to be monitored and communicating through parallel buss lines to a central record unit. The monitor counts the pulses of each digit dialed and stores the digits in a number register. It determines if an area code has been dialed and if a leading ''''1'''' has been dialed and accommodates for them. After the number has been stored it signals the user to enter an identification number which is also detected and stored in sequence. When the audible ring on the telephone line ends, the monitor begins counting the elapsed time and also requests time service of the central record unit. The central record unit sequentially interrogates the monitors until it detects one requesting service. When it detects a time service request it transfers the real time from a real time clock in the record unit to the monitor requesting service and then resumes sequential interrogation. When the call is completed, the monitor stops counting the elapsed time and requests record service of the central record unit. When the record unit detects a record service request it transfers the number called, the identification number, the elapsed time and the real time from the monitor to the central record unit. It resets the monitor and resumes sequential interrogation.,下面是Elapsed-time telephone monitor system专利的具体信息内容。
