Abstract
A facsimile apparatus for transmitting/receiving image data has a first memory for storing image data of one or more pages, a second memory for storing external apparatus number and time data, and an automatic send control for comparing the time data stored in the second memory with a time signal from a clock, and, upon detecting a coincidence thereof, for supplying the external apparatus number stored in the second memory to a network control to cause an automatic dialing thereof to connect a line with the external apparatus, so that image data is transmitted to or received from the external apparatus. The user of each facsimile apparatus can set or modify polling reception originating terminals, repeating destinations, polling/multi-address calling destinations or the like. The facsimile apparatus is convenient for a user who desires to perform facsimile transmission at a desired time.
