Is stored in the storage unit 7 as journal ID information. If the NSS character ID is an ID that should not be displayed or recorded (for example, an ID including katakana), the TSI character ID is displayed (S31), and the TSI character ID is used as the journal ID information. Is stored in the storage unit 7 (S
32). Thereafter, the image information is transmitted in the same manner as in the embodiment on the transmitting side, and the communication is terminated.

In the above-described embodiment, a configuration is adopted in which it is determined that the ID is not an ID to be displayed when even one katakana character is included, but if the katakana character has a predetermined number of characters, the space is replaced with NSF or NSS. Can be displayed. Further, in the above-described embodiment, the signal processing process has been described by the hardware configuration such as the determination unit and the code selection unit. However, it can be sufficiently achieved by software. Also, NSF or NSS
Although the ID of CSI or TSI is displayed or recorded when the ID is katakana, if the ID is misleading for the operator, it may be displayed or recorded. Can be changed as appropriate.

[0023]

As is apparent from the above description, the present invention determines whether the character ID of NSF or NSS should be displayed or recorded to the operator when the opponent is its own machine. If it is not to be displayed or recorded, CSI or TSI
