<Description of operation>
The operation of the portable mobile communication terminal according to the present invention will be described below with reference to FIGS.
FIG. 2 is an example of a flowchart for explaining an example of manner mode activation control by the manner control unit 4a used in the portable terminal shown in FIG.
FIG. 3 is an example of a flowchart for explaining an example of manner mode release control by the manner control unit 4a used in the mobile terminal shown in FIG.

The manner mode activation time is set according to the procedure shown in FIG.
First, the manner mode control unit 4a (see FIG. 1) determines whether it is the manner mode activation set time in step S20.
If the determination result in step S20 is “YES”, the manner mode control unit 4a determines whether or not the manner mode is currently set in step S21.
Step S24 is a case where the determination result in Step S21 is “YES”, and the manner mode is being activated. Therefore, the manner mode control unit 4a maintains the current manner mode state and ends the processing (Step S23). If the determination result in step S20 is “NO”, the standby state is entered.
Step S22 is a case where the determination result in Step S21 is “NO”, and is not currently in the manner mode, so the manner mode control unit 4a activates the manner mode and ends the processing (Step S23).

Next, the manner mode cancellation will be described with reference to the procedure shown in FIG.
Set the release time in the same manner as the manner mode start time setting.
First, the manner mode control unit 4a determines whether or not it is the manner mode release setting time in step S30.
If the determination result in step S30 is “YES”, the manner mode control unit 4a determines whether or not the manner mode is currently activated in step S31.
Step S34 is a case where the determination result in step S31 is “NO”, and the manner mode is being released. Therefore, the manner mode control unit 4a maintains the current manner mode release state and ends the process.
Step S32 is a case where the determination result in Step S31 is “YES”, and the manner mode is currently being activated. Therefore, the manner mode is canceled (Step S32), and the processing is ended (Step S33).

In this way, by performing the activation process and the cancellation process separately, it is possible to eliminate the determination of setting across days. Specifically, in the case of section setting, it is necessary to determine whether the release time is the current day or other than the current day after the activation time, and processing in consideration of cooperation with the calendar function.
In the present invention, the day of the week information and the time information from the clock function unit 14 are acquired from the schedule management unit 8 and are activated at the time set for activation and released at the time set for cancellation. It becomes unnecessary.

<Description of effects>
The manner mode setting method of a portable mobile communication terminal having a conventional schedule function is set by section setting (for example, time from 7:00 to 8:00) by using the schedule function, but is started ( There are many cases in which the start-up time and end (release) time are indefinite. In the present invention, the usage scene of the user can be expanded by separately setting the start time and the release time of the set time for the manner mode. In addition, by making it possible to set a plurality of setting times, the conventional schedule specification is also possible. Further, it can be combined with manual manner mode setting, and a manner mode setting method with improved convenience can be provided.

Next, an example of the manner mode in the portable terminal according to the present invention will be described with reference to FIGS. 4 (a) to 4 (f) and FIG.
4A to 4F are examples of the display screen of the mobile terminal shown in FIG. FIG. 5 is another example of the display screen of the mobile terminal shown in FIG.
When the manner mode function of the portable terminal shown in FIG. 1 is selected, a menu that allows setting the manner mode activation time and the release time is displayed (FIG. 4A).
When a user (not shown) selects the manner mode activation time setting of the portable terminal shown in FIG. 1, the manner mode control unit 4a selects activation time setting 1 or activation time setting 2 (FIG. 4B).
The “activation time” and “repetition” of the manner mode are input (FIG. 4C).
The repetition setting is selected from “no setting”, “daily”, and “designation of day of the week” (FIG. 4D).
When a user (not shown) selects “specify day of the week”, the day of the week is selected by a selection method using a check box (FIG. 4E).
Finally, the setting contents are displayed and the setting is completed. When the manner mode cancellation is selected, the time is set by the same transition (FIG. 4 (f)).

  On the screen shown in FIG. 4B, a function menu for editing / setting ON / OFF is prepared (FIG. 5). In this way, setting the start time and release time separately is equivalent to manually setting the manner mode manually, and it is determined whether the manner mode is active at the set time. This can be realized simply by doing.
