Abstract

PURPOSE:To execute an operation guide display by a prescribed foreign language by constituting the title machine so that a character code processing part can be switched, when an IC card in which character code data of a foreign language is registered is inserted into an IC card reading part. CONSTITUTION:A translating device 5 receives a display code from a main control part 13 side by a character display control part 6, and it is divided into a character code and a mark code therein. The former and the latter are stored in a character code storage part 9 and a mark storage part 7, respectively, and a mark registering part 8 holds and outputs data corresponding to this stored data. A mark control part 12 generates character display data by synthesizing the data outputted from the mark registering part 8 and data outputted from a parallel-to-series converting part 11, and outputs it to an operation guide display part 4. When an IC card 3 in which code data of a foreign language is registered is inserted into an IC card reading part 2, a character code generating part 10 is detached, and instead of said part, the IC card 3 is connected. In such a way, the data can be translated into a prescribed foreign language and can be displayed on the operation guide display part.

Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] [Industrial Application Field] The present invention relates to an automatic teller machine, and in particular, when an IC card is inserted and connected to an IC card reader, the contents to be operated are translated into a predetermined foreign language. The present invention relates to an automatic teller machine in which the information is displayed on an operation guide display section.

[Prior Art] Conventionally, the operation guidance display section of an automatic teller machine has displayed Japanese characters such as kanji, hiragana, and katakana, depending on the operation of the machine.

[Problems to be Solved] The operation guidance display section of the conventional automatic teller machine mentioned above is displayed in Japanese, so it is of course difficult for foreigners who do not know Japanese to understand the display pattern. There was a problem that it could cause problems.

The present invention has been made in view of the above-mentioned problems, and an object of the present invention is to provide an automatic teller machine in which operation guidance can be displayed in a predetermined foreign language on an operation guidance display section.

[Means for Solving the Problems] In order to achieve the above object, the present invention provides an automatic teller machine equipped with an operation guidance display section that displays predetermined operation guidance based on data from a control section. IfJf is equipped with a translation device having a label data processing section and a character code processing section, when an IC card in which character code data of a foreign language is registered is inserted into the IC card reading section, the character code is read. The processing section is configured to switch and display a translated operation guide in a foreign language based on the character code data of the foreign language registered in the IC card on the operation guide display section.

[Example] Hereinafter, an example of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings.

FIG. 1 is an external view showing an embodiment of the present invention. 1 is an automatic teller machine, 2 is an IC card reading section, 3 is an IC card, 4 is an operation guide display section, and 5 is a translation device.

FIG. 2 is a block diagram showing the configuration of translation device 225 in FIG. 1. 6 is a character display control unit, 7 is a marker storage unit,
8 is a sign registration section, 9 is a character code storage section, 10 is a character code generation section, 11 is a signal parallel to serial conversion section, 12 is a sign control section, and 13 is a main control section.

First, to explain the functions of each part, the automatic teller machine l
When displaying it on the operation guide display section 4, the translation device 5 receives the display code from the main control section 13 side using the character display control section 6, and here, the 0-character code that is divided into the character code and the sign code is the character code. The sign code is stored in the storage unit 9 and the sign code is stored in the sign storage unit 7, and the sign registration unit 8 stores the sign code in the sign storage unit 7.
The 0-character group code generation section 10, which holds and outputs data corresponding to the stored data in the 1-character code storage section 9, outputs code data corresponding to the stored data in the 1-character code storage section 9. The signal parallel/serial converter 11 converts the parallel data output from the 5-character group code generator 10 into serial data and outputs it to the marker controller 12 .

The sign control section 12 synthesizes the data output from the sign registration section 8 and the data output from the signal parallel-to-serial conversion section 11 to create character display data, and outputs it to the operation guide display section 4. Then, the operation guidance display section 4 displays predetermined operation guidance on the screen based on this data.

Since Japanese code data is registered in the character code generating section 10, Japanese is displayed on the operation guide display section 4 under normal conditions.

In addition, if code data in another language is registered in the IC card 3 owned by the customer, when the IC card 3 is inserted into the IC card reading section 2, the character code storage section 9 and the signal parallel/serial exchange section 11 The character code generator 10 connected between the two is disconnected and an IC car 13 is connected in its place.

Next, the operation in this embodiment will be explained.

For example, suppose that the Japanese word "Welcome" is displayed on the operation guidance display section 4, and the display code is 0123", the character code is "01", and the indicator code is 23".

In this state, IC card 3 with English registered is
When inserted into the card reading section 2 and connected, the IC card 3 is connected to the device instead of the character code generation section IO,
The IC card 3 outputs code data corresponding to the character code "01", for example, code data indicating "Welcome" to the signal parallel-to-serial converter 11. At this time, the sign code "23" is not related to the insertion and connection of the IC card 3, so use the sign code "23" as is! ! :Im is output to the control unit 12, and the operation guide display unit 4 displays the font color and background color corresponding to the sign code "23".

[Effects of the Invention] As explained above, the present invention allows data in another language to be registered in an IC card, and by inserting and connecting the IC card into the IC card reader, the translation device creates translated data. By changing the display content of the operation guide display from Japanese to another language, foreigners who do not know Japanese can quickly and accurately operate the automatic teller machine, which makes it easier to operate automatic teller machines than before. This has the effect of eliminating erroneous operations due to inability to understand operation guidance.
