Abstract

A method for automatically changing a service area of a wide area pager integrated with a Second Generation Digital Cordless Telephone (CT-2) is provided. The method includes the step of receiving service area information by the CT-2 and transmitting the service area information to the wide area pager, when a radio paging mode is performed. The service area information transmitted to the wide area pager from the CT-2 is compared with preset service area information in the wide area pager. The preset service area information in the wide area pager is then changed to the service area information transmitted to the wide area pager, when the preset service area information is not identical to the transmitted service area information.

Claims

1. A method for automatically changing a service area of a wide area pager integrated with a Second Generation Digital Cordless Telephone (CT-2), comprising the steps of:

receiving service area information by the CT-2 and transmitting the service area information to the wide area pager, when a radio paging mode is performed;

comparing the service area information transmitted to the wide area pager from the CT-2 with preset service area information in the wide area pager; and

changing the preset service area information in the wide area pager to the service area information transmitted to the wide area pager, when the preset service area information is not identical to the transmitted service area information.

2. The method of claim 1, further comprising the step of automatically changing the service area of a radio paging system using the CT-2.

3. The method of claim 2, wherein the step of automatically changing the service area of the radio paging system farther comprises the steps of;

key-dialing a user wide area pager number by the CT-2;

transmitting change data for changing the service area to the radio paging system, when a talking path is formed between the radio paging system and the CT-2; and

changing the service area of the radio paging system.

4. A method for automatically changing a service area of a wide area pager in a radio paging system, the wide area pager having a radio paging number stored therein and being integrated with a Second Generation Digital Cordless Telephone (CT-2), comprising the steps of:

transmitting a signal for requesting a change of the service area from the wide area pager to the CT-2;

key-dialing the user radio paging number by the CT-2; and

transmitting change data for changing the service area to the radio paging system, when a talking path is formed between the radio paging system and the CT-2.

5. A method for automatically changing a service area of a wide area pager in a radio paging system, the wide area pager having a radio paging number stored therein and being integrated with a Second Generation Digital Cordless Telephone (CT-2), comprising the steps of:

receiving service area information by the CT-2 and transmitting the service area information to the wide area pager, when a radio paging mode is performed;

comparing the service area information transmitted to the wide area pager from the CT-2 with preset service area information in the wide area pager;

changing the preset service area information in the wide area pager to the service area information transmitted to the wide area pager, when the preset service area information is not identical to the transmitted service area information;

transmitting a signal for requesting a change of the service area from the wide area pager to the CT-2;

key-dialing the user radio paging number by the CT-2; and

transmitting change data for changing the service area to the radio paging system, when a talking path is formed between the radio paging system and the CT-2.

6. The method of claim 5, wherein the service area information received by the CT-2 corresponds to the service area where a link is set to the CT-2.

7. The method of claim 5, wherein the preset service area information in the wide area pager is stored in an EEPROM.

8. The method of claim 5, wherein the user radio paging number is stored in an EEPROM.

9. The method of claim 5, further comprising the step of transmitting a signal indicating a completion of the change of the service area of the radio paging system to the wide area pager.
