A call device 11 outputs a call tone based on the command. The registration table formed in the memory 8 is entered by a key board 5 and set by the processor 7 and registered in a form of a subscriber number and a call tone in pairs. It is possible to select a call tone corresponding to the caller at the arrival of an incoming call for a called terminal equipment by registering the subscriber number and the call tone in advance and the waiting of a phone call reply is made efficient and a useless call tone is avoided.
