The content of the display device 200 is becoming richer and the number of supported functions is increasing, and the specification becomes an indispensable part of the display device 200 in order to enable the user to better understand the functions of the display device 200. The traditional specifications are random self-contained paper specifications, but in consideration of the defects of the paper specifications in the aspects of cost, environmental protection, preservation and the like, electronic specifications are increasingly used for replacing the paper specifications. The electronic specification is arranged in the display device, is easy to store, and has low maintenance cost after development.

At present, when a user experiences a certain function on the display device 200, if the user wants to further know a specific use mode of the function, some function descriptions, and the like, the user needs to exit the page where the function item is located, enter the home page of the electronic specification from a unified entry in an application or system setting, and then find a description item corresponding to the function in the electronic specification for reference. Therefore, the display mode of the electronic specification is complex to operate, and further causes the user experience to be poor.

Based on the above, the embodiment of the application provides a display device 200, which provides a setting page for a user to experience various functions and associates various functions with a function introduction page in an electronic specification. When a user experiences a certain target function on the setting page, if the user wants to further know the function, the user can directly select to open the electronic specification on the setting page and display a function introduction page corresponding to the target function. The problem of complex operation caused by closing the setting page and then opening the electronic specification is avoided.

In the embodiment of the application, before the setting page is displayed for the user, each function in the setting page needs to be associated with the function introduction page in the electronic specification. The specific association mode is as follows: the pages of each level of the electronic specification are traversed in the display device 200, and a path is established for each page according to the hierarchical relationship of the page in the electronic specification. Furthermore, the path information of the target function introduction page found in the electronic specification step by step is included in the path.

And, the display device 200 also performs function marking on each path information and its corresponding function introduction page for associating the path information with the corresponding function introduction page. In this way, when the display device 200 needs to display the target function introduction page, only the path information needs to be acquired according to the function marker, and then the corresponding page is displayed according to the hierarchical relationship in the path information.

For example, in the electronic specification, the path information from the main page to the picture mode introduction page is: main page- > image introduction page- > image mode introduction page. As shown in fig. 5, an option such as "image" may be included on the main page of the electronic specification, and, as shown in fig. 6, an option such as "image mode" may be included on the image introduction page. The path information indicates that when the user selects the image option on the main page shown in fig. 5, the display device 200 displays the image introduction page shown in fig. 6, and when the user selects the image mode option on the image introduction page, the display device 200 displays the image mode introduction page shown in fig. 7. The function identifier configured for the path information by the display device 200 may be an "image mode" or other identifier, so that when the display device 200 needs to display an image mode introduction page, the corresponding path information may be directly acquired according to the function identifier "image mode".

In the embodiment of the present application, in order to facilitate a user to directly input a display instruction of an electronic manual to the display device 200, the display device 200 needs to be associated with the control apparatus 100 such as a remote controller. The user can directly control the display device 200 to display the corresponding content by pressing a key of the control apparatus 100.

In general, the control device 100 is provided with function keys such as numeric keys, direction keys, and backup keys. In the display device 200, the function identifiers of the respective pieces of path information formed according to the electronic specification may be associated with different function keys on the control apparatus 100, respectively, and the function introduction pages corresponding to the respective pieces of path information may be associated with the different function keys. In this way, when the user wants to view the target function introduction page, the user can directly press the target key on the control device 100, and the display device 200 can directly display the target function introduction page corresponding to the target key.

The display device 200 in the embodiment of the present application has a controller 250. The controller 250 may receive a control instruction or the like input to the display apparatus 200 by a user, and control the display 260 to display a corresponding page according to the control instruction.

In the above-described processing for the electronic specification and the control apparatus 100, as shown in fig. 8, the controller 250 of the display device 200 may be configured to: firstly, traversing the electronic specification, and acquiring first path information of each function introduction page in the electronic specification. And then, configuring a corresponding function identifier for each piece of first path information to mark the corresponding relation between each piece of first path information and each function introduction page. Finally, each function identifier is associated with a different key on the control device 100.

In the display device 200, the functions introduced in the electronic specification are generally present in the setting page and can be experienced by the user. In order to avoid the problem of complicated operation of displaying the electronic specification by using the display device 200, in the display device 200 according to the embodiment of the present application, it is also necessary to associate the function on the setting page with the function introduction page in the electronic specification. In this way, when the user views a certain function on the setting page, the display device 200 can be directly controlled to display the corresponding electronic specification introduction page.

When associating the function on the setting page with the function introduction page in the electronic specification, the display device 200 only needs to associate the function identifier of each function introduction page with each function on the setting page, and since the function identifier is also associated with the key of the control apparatus 100, the key on the control apparatus 100 is also associated with the function in the setting page. In addition, in order to enable the user to clearly understand how to directly view the electronic specification corresponding to the target function, the display device 200 may further display a prompt message at a position of the target function selected by the user on the setting page, where the prompt message includes a corresponding relationship between a function introduction page corresponding to the electronic specification and a certain key of the control apparatus 100, and further prompt the user to control the display device 200 to display the function introduction page by pressing the key.

FIG. 9 illustrates a first diagram of a settings page according to some embodiments. As shown in fig. 9, in the display device 200 according to the embodiment of the present application, after the function on the setting page is associated with the function introduction page in the electronic specification, when the user moves the focus to the position of the "image mode" on the setting page, the display device 200 displays the prompt information on the side of the "image mode" option. As shown in fig. 9, the prompt message may be "to view the introductory message of the current content in the specification by pressing the key" 3 ".

Alternatively, in some embodiments, the control device 100 has some spare function keys with different colors, and if these spare function keys with different colors are associated with the function introduction page, the color block representing the color of the target key may be directly displayed in the prompt message corresponding to the target function. For example, a gray color block displayed in the prompt message of the setup page in fig. 10 may indicate that the user presses a gray key on the control apparatus 100 to control the display device 200 to display a function introduction page of the image mode in the electronic specification.

It should be noted that the process of moving the focus by the user may be performed by operating the control device 100 such as a remote controller, or may be performed by other methods such as voice control.

In the above process of associating the function on the setting page with the function introduction page in the electronic specification, the controller 250 of the display device 200 may be further configured to: first, each function identifier is associated with each function in the setting page, and each function in the setting page is associated with a different key on the control device 100. Then, prompt information is configured for the associated functions on the setting page, so as to show the corresponding relationship between the associated functions and the keys on the control device 100.

After associating the function on the setting page with the function introduction page in the electronic specification and on the control apparatus 100, the display device 200 may provide the user with the prompt information of the target function, and after the user presses the target key on the control apparatus 100 according to the content of the prompt information, the display device 200 may directly control the display 260 to display the function introduction page corresponding to the target function in the electronic specification. Here, it is considered that the user presses the target key of the control apparatus 100 and inputs a page display instruction to the display device 200.

In the above process, as shown in fig. 11, the controller 250 of the display apparatus 200 may be further configured to: first, in response to a first selection instruction for selecting a target function input by a user on a setting page, the display 260 is controlled to display prompt information of the target function. Then, in response to a page display instruction input by the user by pressing the target key of the control apparatus 100, the control display 260 displays a function introduction page corresponding to the target function in the electronic specification.

In some embodiments, not all functions on the settings page have a corresponding function introduction page in the electronic specification. In this case, as shown in fig. 12, after receiving a first selection instruction input by the user on the setting page, the display device 200 needs to detect whether the currently selected target function has been configured with a corresponding function identifier in advance. Since the function identifier can be associated with the function introduction page in the electronic specification and the target key on the control device 100, when the target function on the setting page does not have the function identifier, the description target function does not currently have the corresponding electronic specification introduction page, and at this time, the display device 200 does not need to display the corresponding prompt information. When the target function is detected to have the function identifier, it is described that the target function currently has a corresponding electronic specification introduction page, and at this time, the display device 200 may display a prompt message corresponding to the target function.

In the above-described detection process, the controller 250 of the display apparatus 200 may be further configured to: first, whether a target function has a corresponding function identifier is detected in response to a first selection instruction. Then, in the case where the target function has a function identifier, the display 260 is controlled to display a prompt message of the target function.
