Abstract

Interaktívprogram-kiválaszó berendezés, amely tartalmazvezérlőáramkört, amely egyidejűleg megjeleníti a programkiválasztókategóriák (54, 56, 58) egy vonalát és a kiválaszthatóprogramkiválasztó opcióknak (60) csak egyetlen merőleges vonalát,amely a megjelenített programkiválasztó kategóriák egy adottdarabjához kapcsolódik, a kiválasztható programkiválasztó opciók (60)merőleges vonalának egyik ilyen vége a megjelenített programkiválasztókategóriák (54, 56, 58) egy adott darabjához csatlakozik. Továbbá azemlített vezérlőáramkör kicserél legalább néhány megjelenítettprogramkiválasztó kategóriát (54, 56, 58) és kiválaszthatóprogramkiválasztó opciót (60) új programkiválasztó kategóriákkal (54,56, 58) és kiválasztható programkiválasztó opciókkal (60), az újprogramkiválasztó kategóriákat (54, 56, 58) és kiválaszthatóprogramkiválasztó opciókat (60) elmozdítva a megjelenítettprogramkiválasztó kategóriák (54, 56, 58) és kiválaszthatóprogramkiválasztó opciók (60) helyének helyzetébe. Eljárásinteraktívprogram-kiválasztás biztosítására, amely a programkiválasztókategóriák (54, 56, 58) egy vonalának és a kiválaszthatóprogramkiválasztó opciók (60) csak egyetlen merőleges vonalának azegyidejű megjelenítését tartalmazza, az említett opció a megjelenítettprogramkiválasztó kategóriák (54, 56, 58) egy adott darabjáhozkapcsolódik, a kiválasztható programkiválasztó opciók (60) merőlegesvonalának egyik ilyen vége a megjelenített programkiválasztókategóriák (54, 56, 58) egy adott darabjához csatlakozik. Továbbá azemlített eljárás néhány megjelenített programkiválasztó kategóriának(54, 56, 58) és kiválasztható programkiválasztó opciónak (60) újprogramkiválasztó kategóriákkal (54, 56, 58) és kiválaszthatóprogramkiválasztó opciókkal (60) való kicserélését tartalmazza, az újprogramkiválasztó kategóriák (54, 56, 58) és kiválaszthatóprogramkiválasztó opciók (60) elmozdításával a megjelenítettprogramkiválasztó kategóriák (54, 56, 58) és kiválaszthatóprogramkiválasztó opciók (60) helyének helyzetébe.
