Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION [Technical Field of the Invention] The present invention relates to an electronic scheduler that stores schedule data by keystrokes or the like and displays the schedule data on a display unit.

[Prior art and its problems] In recent years, electronic devices have been developed that store date data such as month and day, enter schedule data, store this data in the corresponding location in memory, and display the stored data on a display unit. A scheduler has been commercialized. In this type of electronic scheduler, when reading schedule data once stored from the memory, data such as month and day must be manually specified.

However, even if the schedule data to be read is frequently read, such as the current month or the next month, the operations required to read schedule data from memory as described above are necessary for other months with low read frequency. This is the same as the read operation of schedule data, and the operation may be troublesome, especially when reading schedule data continuously.

[Object of the invention] This invention was made in view of the above-mentioned circumstances.
It is an object of the present invention to provide an electronic scheduler that can simplify time-specific key operations when inputting and outputting schedule data for specific times that are particularly frequently used.

[Summary of the Invention] The present invention has a designated time storage section that stores time data designated by normal key operations, and also stores time data such as a specific year, month, day, etc. in response to mark key operations. A mark time storage section is provided, and when time designation is omitted when inputting/outputting schedule data, the schedule data is processed using time data stored in the mark time storage section.

[Embodiments of the invention] An embodiment of the present invention will be described below with reference to the drawings.

First, the circuit configuration will be explained with reference to FIG.

In this case, since the input key is a numeric keypad, the process proceeds to step S10, and it is determined whether or not the flag ゛1゛° is set in the B flag register 16b of the flag section 16, that is, Determine whether or not it has been specified. Here, if it is determined that the flag 111 II is set in the 8 flag register i6b, no operation is performed:
(represented as rNOPj in the figure), and the processing for the key manual power is stopped, but at this point, the flag "'1pa is not yet set in the B flag register 16b, and the flag is "0°°".
Therefore, the process proceeds to step S11. In step S11, the manually inputted "month" designation data "12" is input and set in the designated year/month storage section 13 as in step S04. After that, as shown in step Si2,
Determine whether key human power has ended. As in this case, when the "year" data and "month" data are input,
Since it is not determined that the key input has been completed yet, the process of step 813 is omitted and the process proceeds to step 306. Then, in step SO6, go to the flag register 16.
After it is determined that the flag ``1'' is set in a, the display data in the key manual for knee person 3. is created in accordance with step SO7.Thereafter, in step SO8, the created display According to the data, the display section 17 displays rl 985-12-J and a cursor indicating the next key manual position as shown in the figure, and now the "year" data r1
Following 985J, the process for the manually inputted "month" data "12" is completed.

Next, as shown in FIG. 2 (3), numerical data U18 is entered using the numeric keypad of the key input section 11 as data for specifying "day".
” is the key to human power. For this key input, in the same way as for the key input for the "Month" data in FIG. After that, step S0
The process proceeds to step S9, where it is determined that the input key signal is from the numeric keypad, and the process then proceeds to step S10. And step S? When 0, B flag register 1 of flag section 16

Determine whether it is a numeric keypad or some other key. If it is determined that the operated key is another key, the result is a no-operation and the processing for the key is stopped, but in this case, since the operated key is the calendar key 11a, Proceeding to step 314, the flag 111 II set in the flag register 16a is cleared and its contents are "
○°°. Then, in the next step 315,
It is determined whether the flag 1 is set in the B flag register 16b, that is, whether the year and month have been specified. In this case, since the flag "1" is set in the B flag register 16b, the process proceeds to step 816.
Clear flag 1 of this B flag register 16b and set its content to "0°". Then, step 80
6, the flag '1'° is set in the flag register 16a.
is set. Here, the contents of the flag register 16a are set to ``'' by step 814.
Since it is Opa, the process proceeds to step 317 next. In step 317, calendar display data is created using the data stored in the data storage section 15 according to the date data stored in the designated year/month storage section 13.

Then, in the next step S18, the date data stored in the designated year/month storage section 13 and the mark date/month storage section 14 are stored.
It is determined whether the contents stored in Here, data is still recorded in the mark year/month storage unit 14.
Since it has not been set, the determination result is No, and the process proceeds to step S08. Then, in step $08, a calendar is displayed on the display unit 17 as shown in the figure according to the display data created in step S17, and the corresponding date position "18" is displayed blinking. Finish processing for the operation.

Here, mark key 11 is newly set as shown in FIG. 2 (5).
When b is operated, step S0 is executed in response to this key operation.

), the contents of the flag register 16a are set to "o" in step 314 when the calendar key 11a is operated, so the process proceeds to step 802. Then, in this step 802, the operated key is mark key 11.
If it is determined that the date is b, the process proceeds to step 819, and the date data N985 stored in the specified year and month storage section 13 is stored.
-12-18'', the year and month data N985-12J is read out and written into the mark year and month storage section 14.

Thereafter, in step S06, it is again determined whether the flag '1' is set in the flag register 16a. Here again, as described above, the content of the flag register 16a is 110 I+, so the process proceeds to step $17 and the r19 newly stored in the mark year/month storage section 14 is stored.
According to the year and month data of “December 1985”, the data storage unit 15
Calendar display data is created using the stored data.

Then, in the next step 818, it is determined whether the year and month data stored in the designated year and month storage section 13 and the year and month data stored in the mark year and month storage section 14 are equal.

Here, since the data in both storage units 13 and 14 are equal,
The determination result is YES, and the process then proceeds to step S20.

In step 820, the display data is added to the calendar display data created in step S17 above in order to display a lighted mark symbol indicating that the mark year and month data is stored in the mark year and month storage section 14. Write to data storage section 15. Then, the process proceeds to step SO8, and according to the display data created in step 817 and the mark symbol lighting display data created in step S20, the display section 17 displays "1985
A calendar for "February" is displayed, and the mark symbol 171 is displayed by lighting, and the processing for the key operation of the mark key 11b is thus completed.

Next, as shown in FIG. 2 (6), the all clear key (rAcJ
), the display data stored in the data storage section 15 is cleared, although the process is not shown.
The calendar display on the display section 17 is stopped, and only the cursor is displayed on the display section 17. Along with this,
The flag "1" indicating the input mode is set in the flag register 16a again.

In this way, nothing is displayed on the display section 17 except the cursor,

), when the calendar key 118 is operated as shown in FIG. If it is determined in step 309 that the operation key is the calendar key 11a, the process then proceeds to step 814, where the flag "'1" in the A flag register 16a is cleared to O°'.

Then, in the next step S15, the B flag register 16
If it is determined that the flag "1" is not set in b, the process proceeds to step 821. In step S21, the year and month data r19 stored in the mark year and month storage section 14 is
85-12J is read out and written into the designated year/month storage section 13. After that, the process goes to step SO6, where it is again determined whether the flag "1" is set in the flag register 16a.Here, the contents of the flag register 16a are #O.
Since it is an IT system, the program then proceeds to step 817 to display the calendar display data for "December 985" using the data stored in the data storage section 15 according to the year and month data newly stored in the specified year and month storage section 13. create. Then, in the next step 818, it is determined whether the year and month data stored in the designated year and month storage section 13 and the year and month data stored in the mark year and month storage section 14 are equal. Here, since the data in both storage units 13 and 14 are equal, the judgment result is YES.
Then, the process advances to step S20. In step 820, a mark symbol indicating that the mark year and month data is stored in the mark year and month storage section 14 is added to the calendar display data created in step 817, and the display data is added to the calendar display data so that the mark symbol is displayed by lighting. In addition, it is written to the data storage section 15. Then, the process proceeds to step 308, and according to the display data created in step S17 and the mark symbol lighting display data created in step 320, a calendar of "December 985" is displayed on the display section 17 as shown in the figure. , the mark symbol 171 is displayed by lighting up, and the processing for the calendar key +18 key operation after storing the year and month data is thus completed.

In the above embodiment, year and month data are stored in the mark year and month storage section 14, and when no year and month are specified, this year and month data is read out and a calendar for one month is displayed on the display section 17. However, the data to be stored is not limited to the year and month data; for example, by marking and storing the month and day data, it is possible to read out and display schedule data for a specific day without entering the date and time. It is also possible to easily give.

[Effects of the Invention] As described in detail above, according to the present invention, in addition to the specified time storage section that stores time data specified by normal key operations, data for specific years and months is stored in accordance with mark key operations. It is equipped with a mark time storage unit that stores time data such as date, etc., and when the time specification is omitted when inputting and outputting schedule data, the schedule data is processed using the time data stored in the mark time storage unit. Therefore, it is possible to provide an electronic scheduler that can simplify key operations for specifying times when inputting and outputting schedule data for specific times that are particularly frequently used.
