Abstract

In the case of a method or an arrangement for the automatic start up of a first communication terminal (EG A, EG B) configured for voice communication on at least one second communication terminal (CL A, CL B) configured for text communication, the voice communication between communication terminals is conveyed via at least one voice communication server (SCS) and the text communication between communication terminals is conveyed via at least one text communication server (TCS). The at least one voice communication server (SCS) and the at least one text communication server (TCS) exchange information via at least one conversion device (GW). The start up of at least one first communication terminal (CL A, CL B) is effected via the at least one text communication server (TCS), the at least one conversion device (GW) and the at least one voice communication server (SCS) to at least one second voice communication terminal (EG A, EG B).

Claims (12)

1 . A method for automatic startup of at least one first communication terminal configured for speech communication on at least one second communication terminal configured for text communication, in which the speech communication between communications terminals is processed over at least one speech communications server and the text communication between communications terminals is processed over at least one text communications server comprising,

exchanging messages between the at least one speech communication server and the at least one text communication server over at least one converter device and signaling the startup of at least one first communication terminal via the at least one text communication server, the at least one converter device, and the at least one speech communication server to at least one second communication terminal.

2 . The method of claim 1 , comprising transmitting startup signaling information between the text communication server and the speech communication server if the speech communication server has previously signaled to the text communication server that the startup should occur.

3 . The method of claim 2 , wherein startup signaling information is transmitted between the text communication server and the speech communication server to the extent specified in a prior signal.

4 . The method of claim 1 , further comprising transmitting at least one piece of startup signaling information to a communication terminal.

5 . The method of claim 1 , wherein at least the speech communication server transmits messages without prompting.

6 . A system for automatic transmission of startup information for at least one first communication terminal configured for text communication to at least one second communication terminal configured for speech communication, with at least one text communication server for processing the text communication between communication terminals, and at least one speech communication server for processing the speech communication between communications terminals,

comprising at least one converter device, through which the at least one speech communication server and the at least one text communication server exchange messages, and wherein startup signaling information for at least the first communication terminal is transmitted through the at least one text communication server, the at least one converter device, and the at least one speech communications server to at least one second communication terminal.

7 . The system of claim 6 , where startup signaling information is transmitted between the speech communication server and the text communication server if the speech communication server has previously signaled to the text communication server that the transmission should occur.

8 . The system of claim 7 , configured such that startup signaling information is transmitted between the speech communication server and the text communication server to the extent specified by a previous signaling.

9 . The system of claim 6 wherein at least one piece of startup signaling information transmitted to a communication terminal contains at least one piece of operating information.

10 . The system of claim 6 , wherein at least the speech communication server transmits messages without prompting.
