Can be automatically registered. At this time, the presence or absence of registration is notified to the carrier by display and notification.

[0006]

Next, the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings. FIG. 1 is a block diagram showing the configuration of a radio selective call receiver with a display according to the present invention. In FIG. 1, a radio signal received by an antenna 1 is amplified and demodulated by a radio unit 2. The demodulated signal is converted into a digital signal by the waveform shaping circuit 3, and is compared with its own selective calling number stored in the ID memory unit 5 by the decoder unit 4. Outputs to the CPU 6 a signal notifying that it has been received. When the signal is input from the decoder unit 4 to the CPU 6, the driver unit 7
A control signal is output to the LCD driver 8 and a message is displayed on the LCD 9. The received message is stored in the memory 10 by the CPU 6 and can be displayed again.
When receiving the control signal from the CPU 6, the driver unit 7 drives the LED 11 and the speaker 12 to notify that there is a call.

[0007] As a function of the electronic organizer, when the date and time and the schedule information of the schedule item of the date and time are input from the keyboard switch 13, the information is stored in the memory 10 by the processing of the CPU 6 and the keyboard switch 13 is processed.
Search for information by operating from
Information can be displayed on the LCD 9 under the control of the driver 8.

Further, when the message is received, the CPU 6 identifies the information enclosed by [] in the message as date and time information, and checks the presence or absence of the schedule information of the day in the memory 10. Can be.
If the schedule information is already registered on the day, the call notification is performed by a sound different from the sound frequency and the sound period of the normal call notification. LC which will be described later
The lighting of the mark D indicates that the schedule information has already been registered on the same day. On the other hand, if the schedule information is not registered on the day, the call notification is performed by the sound of the sound frequency and the sound period specified by the normal ID memory unit 10. At the same time, the lighting of a mark on another LCD, which will be described later, clearly indicates that the scheduled information is not registered on the same day. Then, as the schedule information of the date and time, the contents of the contents of the received message other than the part enclosed by [] are registered, and the fact that the message has been registered as a schedule is clearly indicated by the lighting of another LCD mark. It is configured.

FIG. 2 shows an example of a display of the radio selective call receiver with display according to the present invention. As shown in FIG. 2 (a), when there is no date and time information enclosed in [] in the received message, the receiver does not register to the schedule by merely a paging operation as in the related art.

On the other hand, as shown in FIG. 2B, when date and time information surrounded by [] exists in the received message, in this example, X, Y, and Z correspond to the numerals 10, 11, and 12, respectively. Therefore, if the date and time information of “18:00 on December 24” exists, the CPU 6 checks whether the above-mentioned schedule information is registered. In this example, the fact that the schedule information has already been registered on the relevant date is indicated by a mark 102 on the LCD.
Is turned on, and the fact that the received message is registered as schedule information is clearly indicated by turning on the mark 101 on the LCD. FIG. 2C shows a case where date and time information exists, as in FIG. 2B. However, the fact that no schedule information has been registered on the relevant date is clearly indicated by turning on a mark 103 on the LCD.

FIG. 2D shows a case where the schedule information is searched and displayed as an electronic organizer after the reception of the message and the registration as the schedule information, and the displayed information is based on the information in which the received message is registered. Indicates that the displayed information is a received message by lighting the mark 104 on the LCD. When the displayed information is information inputted from the keyboard, the mark 105 of the LCD is turned on as shown in FIG.

FIG. 3 is a flowchart showing the operation of the receiver according to the present invention. First, when a message is received following its own calling number (201), it is determined whether or not the information enclosed by [] is included in the received message (20).
2) If there is no information enclosed by [], a message is displayed together with the call notification as usual (203), and after the message is displayed, the process waits for a message to be received (201).

On the other hand, when the information enclosed by [] is included, a search is made as to whether the schedule information has already been registered on the date specified by the date and time information enclosed by [] (204). If registered, notification of registration is sent to LC
The D mark 102 is clearly indicated by lighting (205), and the schedule information of the date and time is registered with contents other than those enclosed in [] in the received message, and the registration of the received message as schedule information is performed on the LCD. (206). Then, display of the received message and calling notification by a sound different from the sound frequency and the sound period specified by the ID memory unit 5 are performed (207).

When the schedule information is not registered on the date specified by the date and time information enclosed in [], the notification of no registration is clearly indicated by turning on the mark 103 on the LCD (2).
08) Register the contents other than those enclosed in [] in the received message as schedule information of the date and time, and clearly indicate that the received message has been registered as schedule information by lighting the mark 101 on the LCD (20).
9). Then, as in the case where there is no information enclosed in [] in the received message, the received message is displayed and the call notification is performed as usual (210). In any case, the call notification operation receiver and the message wait for reception (20).
1).

[0015]

As described above, the present invention searches for the presence or absence of registration of schedule information at the date and time specified by the date and time information in the received message, and stores the date and time information and the schedule information in the memory according to the search result.
