The detailed description of preferred embodiment
For clear and for simplicity, will dispense those at those skilled in the art being the known of the present invention various configurations and the description of element.Also have, in the accompanying drawings, the element that similar label or symbology are similar.
With reference to figure 2, different with traditional radio paging receiver of Fig. 1, what radio paging receiver according to the present invention was useful on selection function feeds rotary disk shutter 171 slowly.For the convenience of the user, feed the side that rotary disk shutter 171 is installed in radio paging receiver slowly.Radio paging receiver also has auxiliary switch 172, is used for feeding rotary disk shutter 171 slowly when coming selection function function selecting being operated initialization (resetting).
Fig. 3 is the block diagram that comprises the radio paging receiver that feeds rotary disk shutter 171 and auxiliary switch 172 slowly.Radio circuit 110 receives a radio paging signal by antenna AT, and carries out frequency inverted for example, separates and be in harmonious proportion the function of waveform shaping.Radio circuit 110 converts radio paging signal to the digital radio paging data, and it is exported to decoder 120.Decoder 120 is the radio call data decode, and the working method of radio paging receiver is set.Promptly during idle mode, decoder 120 is controlled the power for operation that is provided by battery 130 by control switch 140 periodically, so that survey header data.In batch processing mode, decoder 120 probe synchrodatas and frame data (address code word+message code word).Decoder 120 is decoded into original data mode to the frame data that detect.
Memory 160 storage divides the uniqueness of tasking radio paging receiver (self) address and frame data, also stores the beep-page message of handling through microcontroller 150 from the caller.Slowly feed rotary disk shutter 171 and auxiliary switch 172 and play a part interface between radio paging receiver and the user.Slowly feed rotary disk shutter 171 and be used in multiple function, selecting any function, so that carry out corresponding working method formula.Auxiliary switch 172 is operated initialization with function selecting.
The overall operation of microcontroller 150 control radio paging receivers.For example, microcontroller 150 produces alarm control signal, and comes display control signal by handling from the decoded data of decoder 120 generations.Microcontroller 150 compares data that produce from decoder 120 and self address that is stored in the memory 160, if the radio paging signal that is received comprises the self information of radio paging receiver, then produces alarm control signal.Microcontroller 150 also produces display control signal, thereby can be displayed on the display unit 180 from the beep-page message that the caller comes, and message stores in memory 160.Microcontroller 150 is being controlled the handling process of function selecting operation, shown in Figure 4 and 5.
Alarm unit 190 comprises loudspeaker and motor.In case receive the alarm control signal that produces from microcontroller 150, warning driver 192 just starts alarm unit 190 and produces chimes of dooms or vibration paging receiver, so as to notify the user have the people calling out he (she).Alarm unit 190 produces chimes of doom under type of alarm, and vibrates paging receiver under quiet mode.
With reference to figure 4, feed rotary disk shutter 171, microcontroller 150 slowly and the menu that is stored in the memory 160 constitutes function selection device.Slowly feeding rotary disk shutter 171 changes or counterclockwise rotation clockwise according to user's manipulation.Can which direction to rotate and to feed slowly the specific function how long rotary disk shutter 171 rotations select radio paging receiver by according to feeding rotary disk shutter 171 slowly.A plurality of functions of being carried out by radio paging receiver are stored in the menu of memory 160.For example, the function that is stored in the menu of memory 160 comprises: warning/quiet function is used to be provided with type of alarm or quiet mode; The full scale clearance function is used to remove the message that all receive; Closing function is used to stop the operation of radio paging receiver; Warning function is set, is used to be provided with warning; Time function is set, is used to be provided with the time; The date function is set, is used to be provided with the date; The setting area function is used for the setting area.Microcontroller 150 is surveyed and is fed the rotation direction and the rotation time of rotary disk shutter 171 slowly, thereby selects these functions.Selected function is displayed on display unit 180 under the control of microcontroller 150.For example, if the user clockwise rotates and feeds rotary disk shutter 171 slowly, As time goes on function is set in the following sequence: sound/peace and quiet (state S1) → full scale clearance (state S2) → close (state S3) → be provided with warning (state S4) → be provided with time (state S5) → be provided with date (state S6) → setting area (state S7).If user inhour is rotated and fed rotary disk shutter 171 slowly, As time goes on function is set in the following sequence: setting area (state S7) → be provided with date (state S6)-→ all (state S2) → sound/peace and quiet (state S1) of time (state S5) → be provided with warning (state S4) → close (state S3) → remove are set.
Fig. 5 is the flow chart of explanation by the handling procedure of the function selecting operation of microcontroller 150 controls.Microcontroller 150 is judged in step 501 whether the user rotates and is fed rotary disk shutter 171 slowly.If microcontroller 150 just shows the initial state value at display unit 180.When the initial state value can be current and branch.In step 503, whether clockwise microcontroller 150 is verified and is fed rotary disk shutter 171 commentaries on classics slowly.
If feed rotary disk shutter 171 slowly are clockwise commentaries on classics, rotate within the predetermined time whenever feeding rotary disk shutter 171 slowly, and microcontroller 150 shows the function in the menu that is stored in memory 160 in order, and carries out selected function.As time goes on select to be stored in the function in the menu in the following sequence: sound/peace and quiet (state S1) → full scale clearance (state S2) → close (state S3) → be provided with warning (state S4) → be provided with time (state S5) → be provided with date (state S6) → setting area (state S7).
If inhour is rotated and is fed rotary disk shutter 171 slowly, rotate within the predetermined time whenever feeding rotary disk shutter 171 slowly, microcontroller 150 shows the function in the menu that is stored in memory 160 in order, and carries out selected function.As time goes on select to be stored in the function in the menu in the following sequence: all (state S2) → sound/peace and quiet (state S1) of time (state S5) on setting area (state S7) → be provided with date (state S6) → be provided with → be provided with warning (state S4) → close (state S3) → remove.
Simultaneously, if auxiliary switch 172 was pressed in function selecting operating period, microcontroller 150 resets operation.
As mentioned above, feed the function that rotary disk shutter 171 is selected radio paging receiver slowly by using, and carry out selected function.Therefore, the user can easily select the function of desirable radio paging receiver, and needn't carry out complicated switching manipulation.There is the possibility that pushes the wrong switch hardly.Even selected undesirable function, also can enough auxiliary switches function selecting be operated initialization, and can choose desirable function easily.
Though represented and described the present invention with reference to some most preferred embodiment of the present invention, but, the professional and technical personnel it will be appreciated that, can propose this various in the form and details change and do not exceed the determined the spirit and scope of the present invention of appending claims.
