Therefore, when the “B” button is pressed, it can be recognized that “2” shown in the meaningful (default) section of the allocation register 61 has been pressed.

Next, referring to the flowchart of FIG.
A control procedure for performing the assignment change of the meaning of the input button in the interactive format will be described. In that case, step S
Proceeding to 44, a message such as "press key No. n (for example," transmit ") is displayed on the display unit 1 (FIG. 1) as the" input button reassignment mode ". Next, in step S45, in the initial setting, “Send” is set to “C” of the input button 52, but if the user wants to change it to, for example, “B”, “B” of the input button 32 is changed to “B”. Press. Then, in step S46, information of "B" of the input button 32 pressed by the user is input to the control means (1) 32, and the control means (1) 32 assigns the assignment register 61 in the key assignment table storage means 34.
, The meaning assigned to “B” of the input button 32 is changed from “2” in the current state to “transmission”. In step S47, steps S44 to S46 are repeated, and all n input buttons 52 are allocated.

By performing the above-described assignment change procedure, the meaning when the input button 52 is pressed is arbitrarily changed by the user, as shown in the example of the meaning-added (changed) item in the assignment register 61. It can be changed at will.

When it is desired to change the meaning of only some of the input buttons 52, the input button 5
By taking measures such as setting the range of 2, the number of repetitions from step S44 to step S47 can be reduced, so that the processing can be simplified. Further, as described in the second embodiment, even when the operation unit 2 is manually rotated to an arbitrary angle,
