FACSIMILE SYSTEM

PURPOSE:To execute a facsimile communication to a desired destination without using a wire circuit by receiving and recording only a picture signal address to its own device in a receiving side device, based on transmitted destination designating information. CONSTITUTION:First of all, a control part 6 detects whether an input of a transmitting instruction exists in an operating part 1 or not. In case when an input exists, a facsimile device starts a transmitting operation, and in case when no input exists, the control part 6 detects whether a lock signal arriving through a radio circuit from other device has been received in a receiving part 4 or not. In case when the lock signal has been received, the control part 6 sends a transmitting lock signal to a transmitting part 3 so that the transmit ting part 3 of the own device does not execute a transmitting operation, and starts a receiving operation. When the receiving operation has been ended, the control part 6 sends out a transmitting lock release signal to the transmit ting part 3 in order to release a transmitting lock, and returns to a detecting operation of a transmitting instruction input.
