  Next, the operation for setting the power-off of the portable mobile communication terminal will be described by taking an example in which a specific character (for example, “hospital”) is input in the business.

  This operation is realized by linking the conventional automatic power ON and automatic power OFF functions with the schedule. However, since it is a schedule function, if the power is turned off at the set time, it becomes impossible to confirm the requirements.

  However, when it is brought into a medical institution, there is a problem that the radio wave emitted from the device itself adversely affects the medical device as described in JP-A-10-200409. Turn off the power. That is, since no operation other than display and key operation is performed, radio waves are not emitted from the portable mobile communication terminal, and there is no adverse effect on the medical device.

FIG. 5 shows an example of schedule setting for turning off the power.

  As shown in FIG. 4, when the schedule is activated in step S301, it is determined in step S302 whether or not the schedule input from the keyboard unit 7 by the user is a schedule with a power OFF setting. ", The power is turned off in S303. In the example of FIG. 5, since there is a keyword “hospital” in the business, it is determined that the schedule has a power OFF setting.

  In step S304, the schedule end set time is counted, and when the end time is reached, the power is turned on in step S305 to end the schedule.

  If the determination result is “NO” in step S302, the power supply control is not performed as a normal schedule, the schedule end time is determined in step S307, and the schedule is ended when the end time is reached.

  Examples of keywords for setting the power OFF include “hospital”, “movie”, and “flight”. It is preferable that the manner mode keyword storage unit 20 can be rewritten so that these manner mode keywords can be added / deleted / changed.

(Another embodiment of the invention)
When entering a schedule, icons and images are often registered at the same time so that the contents can be understood when listing schedules. For example, when setting a meeting on January 20, 2004, start time 13:00, end time 15:00, select an image or icon that can be seen as a meeting, and register it together with the schedule. . When the registered image or icon is “meeting”, “meeting”, “commuting” or the like, the manner mode is automatically set at the set time.

In the case of images and icons corresponding to “hospital”, “movie”, and “flight”, the power is automatically turned off at the set time.
Basically, as described above, the search method associates a specific icon or image with the manner mode or power off in advance, and sets the icon or image to set the manner mode or power off during that time period. .

  This embodiment can also be implemented with the same control flow as in FIGS. That is, when an icon or image is detected in the message in step S104 of FIG. 2, the icon or image registered in the manner mode keyword storage unit 20 is compared with the icon or image of the schedule message, and the icon or image is checked. If the image is an icon or image corresponding to the manner mode setting, the process may proceed to step S105.

  If an icon or image is detected in the message in step S302 of FIG. 4, the icon or image registered in the manner mode keyword storage unit 20 is compared with the icon or image of the schedule message, and the icon is checked. If the image is an icon or image corresponding to the power OFF setting, the process may proceed to step S303.

  In the first embodiment, when the manner mode setting or the power-off setting is performed by the keyword entered in the item field of the requirement, for example, a keyword such as “movie theater” or “theater” is used for the same content. There are cases where there are multiple ways to fill in, and the number of registered keywords increases. However, according to this embodiment, if an image or icon is decided, it is sufficient to register one for the same content, and there is an error in entering the keyword. This eliminates mistakes in searching and makes it possible to reliably set the manner mode or power off.

  As mentioned above, although this invention was demonstrated by specific embodiment, this invention is not limited to the example shown by the said embodiment, and it cannot be overemphasized that it can change suitably in the range which does not change the summary of this invention.

  The present invention is applicable to portable mobile communication terminals such as mobile phones.
