The present invention relates to a time setting control method of a clock provided in a TV receiver, a video cassette recorder set, and the like, and in particular, to set the time of a timer clock used in such a TV receiver with a single key press. will be.

TV receivers, VSIs, and the like have been widely used as commercial devices at home.

Among these devices, a TV receiver equipped with a timer clock and the like is shown in FIG. 1.

Here, the remote control receiver 52, to which the remote control transmitter 51 is wirelessly connected, is connected to the input port side of the system microprocessor 54, the keypad 53 for various key operations, and the microprocessor for system control. (54), a memory 63 for storing channel selection information and the like, an OSD circuit 60 for displaying OSD characters, etc. on the screen.

In addition, the system includes a tuner 55 that tunes a broadcast signal from an antenna, an IF signal processor 56 that processes the frequency tuned by the tuner, and a composite video signal processed by the IF signal processor 56. Video signal processing unit 57 for filtering luminance signals and chroma signals, reproducing luminance signals and chroma signals, audio signal processing unit 58 for filtering and processing audio signals from composite video signals, and signals provided from OSD circuit 60. And a signal synthesizing unit 61, a speaker 59, a water tube 62, and the like, which are synthesized and sent to the water tube 62 side.

In addition, the control panel of the TV receiver system displays a number or a letter related to a plurality of key operations, and has a separate clock function, such as a Digitron or LED (LED) indicator or LCD. (Liquid Crystal Display) A digital clock that shows the time by an indicator or the like is provided.

In the conventional system, in order to set the clock, the time is set by using a numeric key and a function key provided in the remote control transmitter 51 or the keypad 53 by looking at a broadcasting station or the user's clock.

When the time is set as described above, the time alignment operation is performed in the order of pressing the function key-time key-time alignment up / down key-bunch-minute alignment up / down key-chokey-second alignment up / down key. In the time key, the minute key and the choke key, the up / down keys were usually operated by a single button key.

However, in such a conventional system, when the time displayed on the timer clock is different from the time transmitted by the time signal, the user sets the function key, the time key, the time alignment, the up / down key, the minute key, the minute alignment, the up / down key, the choke-second alignment. Since the time was set by complicated procedures such as up / down keys, the procedure for the manipulation was cumbersome and complicated.

For example, in such a system, use the up / down keys to set the time to 00, or set the seconds directly, then go back to 00 to set the minutes, or set the minutes directly, and set the time, day, month, and year. Even in the case of a match, there was a problem in overcoming the inconvenience of the work because the work had to be done individually, such as 24 hours of time or 30 days / 31 days of work.

In addition, if the wrong number is exceeded during the above work, the time corresponding to the presentation angle is repeatedly set, which is a tricky task, and the user may feel tired.

In addition, the above work is more complicated as the unit of day, month, etc. increases.

As described above, the present invention has a problem because it is difficult to customize the presentation angle of the timer clock provided in the system, and on the other hand, a troublesome person often uses the correct time without setting the wrong time.

The purpose of the present invention is to present a time (seconds, minutes, hours, days, months, years, etc.) with only one time key input when setting the time of a timer clock such as a TV receiver system to improve such a conventional problem. It can be tailored to make it easy to achieve clock alignment in these systems.

The present invention is particularly equipped with a microprocessor of a system so as to realize the object of the above example, and if a single time key is pressed, the present time is maintained at an upper time below the reference value when the current time is below a certain reference value, and when the time is above the reference value, Characterized in a time setting method, such as a TV receiver comprising the step of processing to proceed to the time of the number plus one.

Hereinafter, by referring to this in more detail with the accompanying drawings will be understood more specific features of the present invention.

That is, Figure 2 shows an excerpt of the system main circuit related to the present invention.

Here, a key input unit 11 having various input commands to the set and having a single time key, and if there is a single time key input from the key input unit 11 recognizes this, the current time together with the internal timer is below the reference value. The microprocessor 12 which controls the following time to be maintained as it is, and when it is more than a reference value, it controls to advance to the time of the number which added 1 to the upper time, and to display the calculated time on the display part 13, and this microprocessor ( It consists of the display part 13 which displays time data under control of 12).

The display unit 13 may be a display unit 13 having a display element such as Digitron or LED, or may be display means through the OSD circuit 60.

The system microprocessor 54 is provided with an immediate time setting control program as shown in FIG.

In this case, if there is a single time key input provided in the key input unit 11, it recognizes this and maintains the minute / second of the current time at 00:00, sets the comparison value for the current time as a predetermined reference value, and the minute of the current time. If it is smaller than the threshold, the current time is maintained. If the current time is equal to or greater than the threshold, the current time is +1 and when the time is +1, the day / month / year that the unit goes over is increased by +1. .

That is, if there is a single time key input from the key input unit 11 by the user from the start step, checking the case where the current minute data value is equal to or greater than the minute of the preset predetermined reference value x (steps 101 and 102). And if the current minute data is greater than or equal to the reference value, checking whether the current time is 23 o'clock of the 24 hour time, and setting the time value to 00 at 23 o'clock (step 103, 104).

If it is not 23:00 above, set the time as 1 digit greater than the current time, and after that, check whether the current date is the last day. Steps (steps 112, 105, 106 and 111) are registered with +1.

After that, it is checked whether the current month is December, and if it is December, it is registered as the current year +1, and if it is not December, it is registered as +1 the current month (steps 107, 108, 113).

When the current minute data is smaller than the arbitrary minute reference value X, the second number is set to the arbitrary number ZZ and the minute is set to VV (step 109).

The present invention of such a configuration is as follows.

That is, in the instant time setting control method of the TV receiver according to the present invention, as shown in FIGS. 2 and 3, the user of the system considers the time transmitted through the time signal. If you press the single time key, it will automatically set to the predetermined time that year, month, day, hour, minute, and second match, so you can set the correct time even if you do not adjust the predetermined key for time setting through time signal. It is.

This processing operation causes the system microprocessor 12 to perform with the instantaneous time setting control program of FIG. 3, in which case the microprocessor 12 recognizes this when the user inputs a single time key from the key input unit 11. Check if the current minute data value is greater than or equal to the standard value x (for example, 30 minutes).

For example, the X minute is 12:28 and X is 30 minutes, so 12:28 is less than 30 minutes, so both seconds and minutes are set to 00, etc., and 12:35 In the case of minutes, etc., it is a number greater than X, so it is checked whether the current time is the last time of the day, and again, day, month, etc. are uniform and automatically according to the values of last day, last month, etc. The month, year, etc. are matched.

Therefore, in the case of the above example, when X is greater than or equal to the current minute data, the present time is checked to determine whether the current time is 23 o'clock of the 24 hour time period, and is set to determine whether the time passes or is kept as it is (steps 101 to 104,112). ).

In the case of the date, it is also checked whether the current date is the last day, and if it is the last day, it moves to the next month, and if the current month is the last month of the year, the year is passed to the next year (steps 105 to 108,113).

In this way, when the current minute data passes the time or date based on an arbitrary minute, or the second and minute are all set to 00 while maintaining the current state, the presentation angle is automatically adjusted.

The present invention is to modify the seconds, minutes, hours, days, months, years, etc. through a plurality of keys and a plurality of key operations when a system user such as a TV receiver set the timer clock to the presentation angle provided through the time signal. Even if the work is not done, the presentation angle can be adjusted by pressing a single time key, which is a useful feature to facilitate the clock alignment function in such a system.
