DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS An embodiment of the present invention will be described below with reference to the drawings.

In FIG. 1, 1 is the current time and "day".
Timekeeping means for clocking “month” and “year”, 2 is “year” and “month”
The calendar storage means 3 stores calendar information such as "day" and "day of the week", and the storage 3 stores schedule data and message data such as "message content", "message sender name", and "message recipient name". Means 4 is an input means having various keys for inputting and reading out schedule data and message data. Reference numeral 5 is a display means such as a CRT for displaying the current time, calendar, schedule and message contents, a liquid crystal matrix display, etc., and normally, as shown in FIG. 2, the calendar for one month and the current time are always displayed. In this calendar display, today's date is shown in a display state (reverse display, etc.) different from other dates. Reference numeral 6 denotes a remote control input means having various keys for inputting and reading out schedule data and message data, and wirelessly transmits an input signal by key operation by radio waves or the like. In this example, the input operation can be performed by either the input unit 4 or the remote control input unit 6. Reference numeral 7 is a receiving means for receiving a signal from the remote control input means 6, 8 is writing and reading of schedule data and message data with respect to the storage means 3,
It is a control means for controlling the operation of the entire apparatus such as switching the display of the display means 5.

First, the name of the person who uses the apparatus and the personal identification number corresponding to the name are registered in advance. This is stored in the control means 8 by a predetermined operation of the input means 4. In this example, it is assumed that names and passwords of up to four people can be registered.

Next, the schedule function will be described.

In this embodiment, the storage area of the storage means 3 is divided for each date, and the storage area for each date is further divided for each individual. A schedule flag storage area and a personal identification number flag storage area are provided for each individual storage area.

On the display means 5, as shown in FIG. 3, the calendar status for one month is usually displayed together with the schedule status of the designated person. In the figure, 21a to 21d are individual marks corresponding to the persons A, B, C, and D, of which individual schedule status is displayed. As shown in the figure, the individual marks 21a to 21d are shown. 4 are displayed, it means that the display mode is the display mode of the schedule status for four persons. Also, 22a to 22
"d" corresponds to each of the individual marks 21a to 21d, and is a schedule presence / absence mark for indicating the date on which the person's schedule is registered for each individual, and is provided in each day column. The day when the schedule presence / absence mark is lit indicates that the schedule of the person is registered. As shown in the figure, when four of the scheduled presence / absence marks 22a to 22d are lit in the column of June 1, it is June 1
It shows that the schedules of four persons A to D are registered on each day.

The input means 4 is provided with four individual designation keys corresponding to the persons A to D, respectively. By operating these keys, the persons whose schedule status is to be displayed are designated on the display screen. For example, when the personal designation key corresponding to the person A is operated, the control means 8 searches the schedule data of the person A for which the schedule flag is "1", and the result shown in FIG. As described above, the personal mark 21a is turned on on the display means 5, the schedule presence / absence mark 22a is turned on in the day column in which the schedule of the person A is registered, and the other marks are turned off.

When the schedule statuses of a plurality of persons are displayed at the same time, for example, when it is desired to confirm the schedule statuses of only the persons A and B for this month, the individual designation key corresponding to the persons A is operated, and then # of the input means 4 is operated. The key is operated, and then the individual designation key corresponding to the person B is operated. As a result, the schedule status of only the persons A and B is displayed on the display means 5.
Are displayed at the same time. When the # key is operated, the control means 8 keeps the display state of the present / non-scheduled presence / absence mark. Then, when another individual designation key is operated, the schedule flag for this month of the person corresponding to the key is searched for, and the person's scheduled presence / absence mark and the individual mark are turned on. Therefore, the order in which the individual designation keys are operated is not limited to the above. Even if the individual designation key corresponding to the person B is operated first and then the individual designation key corresponding to the person A is operated, the same result as above is obtained. The display state is set.

Next, the schedule input operation will be described in detail with reference to the flowchart of FIG.

First, the personal designation key of the input means 4 is used to designate who belongs to the input schedule. By this operation, the calendar display of the display means 5 is switched to the schedule status display of the designated person (step 5).
a, 5b).

When the person designation is completed, the input means 4 is next.
The schedule key is operated, and then the setting key is operated (step 5c). By this operation, the control means 8 switches the display of the display means 5 to the date setting display shown in FIG. 6 (step 5d).

On the date input display screen, the user sets the period for inputting the schedule by using the ten keys of the input means 4 and the cursor movement keys (step 5).
e). When a schedule for only one day is input, only that date may be set. For example, if you enter the schedule only on June 12, "June 12th ~ Month
Set as “day”.

Next, when the execution key of the input means 4 is operated, the control means 8 determines whether or not a period has been designated on the date setting display screen (step 5f). If it is determined that the period is specified here, the schedule flag is "1" in the schedule data of all members during the specified period.
In addition, the schedule data whose password code is "0" is read out, and the display of the display means 5 is changed to the display for inputting the schedule of the first day specified for the period based on the schedule data for the first day specified for the period. Switch (step 5g). When the schedule flag of the schedule data of the day is “0”, the schedule column of the person is blank. Further, when both the schedule flag and the personal identification number flag are "1", "Personal identification number is registered." Is displayed in the schedule column of the person.

For example, when the persons B and C are designated by the individual designation key and the period from June 12 to June 14 is designated, first, as shown in FIG. A schedule, a person designation mark ◇ indicating a person to which the schedule is input, a schedule input field, and a personal identification number input field are displayed. From this display, it is possible to confirm that the schedule has already been registered on that day.

In the schedule input display, the user uses the kana key, the ten-key pad, the cursor movement key, etc. of the input means 4 to input a desired position in the schedule input field and the personal identification number input field (step 5h).

Next, when the execution key of the input means 4 is operated, the control means 8 determines whether or not the schedule flag of the designated person on the specified day is "1" (step 5i), and here the schedule flag is "0". If "", this schedule flag is set to "1" (step 5j). If the schedule flag is already "1", that state is held.

Next, the control means 8 judges whether or not the personal identification number has been entered in the personal identification number input field on the schedule input display (step 5k). If it is determined that the personal identification number has not been input, the control means 8 sets the personal identification number flag to "0" and the schedule data entered in the schedule input field, and the designated person on the designated day in the storage means 3. (Step 5l).
If the schedule data is already stored in the storage area, the data is rewritten to the current input schedule data.

On the other hand, when it is determined in step 5k that the personal identification number has been input, the control means 8 detects the coincidence between the input personal identification number and the previously registered personal identification number (step 5m). If a mismatch between the two personal identification numbers is detected, a message "The personal identification number is different" is displayed on the display means 5 (step 5n).
Here, the user inputs the password again.

On the other hand, when the coincidence of the personal identification number is detected in step 5m, the control means 8 sets the personal identification number flag to "1" and the schedule data entered in the schedule input field together with the above-mentioned designation in the storage means 3. The date is stored in the storage area of the designated person (step 5o).

When ending the schedule input, the control means 8 reads the calendar information of this month from the calendar storage means 2 by operating the end key of the input means 4 and switches the display of the display means 5 to the calendar display ( Step 5p).

The schedule is input as described above.

Next, the schedule read operation will be specifically described with reference to the flowchart of FIG.

First, when the display means 5 is in the calendar display state, the personal designation key of the input means 4 is operated (step 8).
a) The control means 8 switches the display of the display means 5 to the schedule status display of the designated person in the same manner as described above (step 8b).

Next, one of the persons designated as described above
In order to confirm the contents of the schedule of the closest day after today in the monthly schedule, the most recent key of the input means 4 is operated (step 8c). When the key is recently operated, the control means 8 schedules the nearest day after the schedule flag is "1" in the storage area of the designated person in the storage means 3 corresponding to the displayed month of the display means 5. The data is read and the schedule content is displayed on the display means 5 (step 8d). In this case, if the schedule data having the password code "1" is not read from the storage means 3, the control means 8 causes the display means 5 to display a message such as "password is registered."

For example, when the display means 5 is in the display state as shown in FIG. 9, that is, in the display mode of the schedule condition of the person C when today is June 3, 6
Since the nearest day after the month 3 after which the schedule of the person C is registered is June 6, the schedule data of the person C on June 6 that is not registered with the personal identification number is read from the storage means 3. Based on this, the schedule contents are displayed on the display means 5 as shown in FIG. In addition,
When the key is operated recently in the mode in which the schedule statuses of a plurality of persons are displayed on the calendar, the schedule content of the closest day after today when the schedule of at least one person is registered is displayed.

After that, when the end key of the input means 4 is operated (step 8e), the control means 8 reads the calendar information of this month from the calendar storage means 2 and displays the read calendar information on the display means 5. Similarly to the above, the schedule data of the designated person whose schedule flag is "1" is retrieved from the storage means 3 and the schedule presence / absence mark is displayed in the corresponding day column of the display means 5 (step 8f).

Next, when confirming the schedule of a desired person on a desired date, first, using the individual designation key,
As described above, the display state of the display means 5 is switched to the schedule status of the desired person (steps 8a and 8b). For example, if person C wants to check the schedule of himself and person D on June 10, first operate the individual designation key corresponding to person C, then operate the # key, and then correspond to person D. Operate the specified key. As a result, the display means 5 switches to the display state of the schedule status of the persons C and D.

Next, the schedule key of the input means 4 is operated, and then the read key is operated (step 8).
g). By this operation, the control means 8 switches the display state of the display means 5 to the date setting display shown in FIG. 11 (step 8h).

Here, "June 10" is input using the cursor movement keys and the ten keys of the input means 4 (step 8i).

Next, when the execution key of the input means 4 is operated, the control means 8 determines whether or not there is a date designation on the date setting screen (step 8j). If no date is input, today's date is set as the designated date (step 8k).
Therefore, if you want to check today's schedule, you do not need to enter the date.

Next, since the designated date is "June 10th", it is determined whether the schedule flags of the persons C and D of "June 10th" are "1" or "0" (step 8l). If all the schedule flags are "0", the message "Schedule has not been entered" is displayed on the display means 5 (step 8m).

On the other hand, if the schedule flag is "1", then it is determined whether the password code of the schedule data is "1" or "0" (step 8n). Here, when the personal identification number flag is "0", the schedule data is read out and the contents of the schedule are displayed on the display means 5 as shown in FIG. 12 (step 8o).

On the other hand, when the secret code flag is "1",
The display of the display means 5 is switched to the PIN input display (step 8p). The display for inputting the personal identification number is as shown in FIG. 13, for example. This figure is a personal identification number input display when both the schedules of persons C and D are registered on June 10, and the personal C schedule data is registered.

In the display for inputting the personal identification number, the user inputs the personal identification number in the personal identification number input field using the ten keys of the input means 4 and the cursor movement key, and operates the execute key after the input (step 8q).

As a result, the control means 8 determines whether or not the personal identification number is entered in the personal identification number input field (step 8r). If it is determined that the personal identification number has not been input, the data of the corresponding schedule data stored in the storage unit 3 which is not registered with the personal identification number is read out, and the contents of the schedule are displayed on the display unit 5 (step 8).
s). FIG. 14 shows a schedule content display which is switched when the execution key is operated without inputting the personal identification number in the personal identification number input display of FIG. At this time, the schedule of person D is displayed, but the schedule of person C is not displayed and “PIN code is registered.”
Is displayed.

On the other hand, when it is determined in step 8r that the personal identification number is input, it is determined whether the personal identification number matches the personal identification number of the person registered in advance (step 8t). If it is determined that the two personal identification numbers do not match, an error message "The personal identification number is different" is displayed on the display means 5 (step 8).
u), where the user inputs the password again.

On the other hand, when it is determined in step 8t that the two personal identification numbers match each other, the schedule data of the designated person and the designated date corresponding to the personal identification number determined to match from the storage means 3 and the designated date. Of the schedule data of the designated person, the schedule data not registered with the personal identification number is read out, and the contents of the schedule are displayed on the display means 5 (step 8v). For example, in FIG.
When the correct personal identification number is input and the execution key is operated in the personal identification number input display of FIG.
Switch to the schedule display shown in 2.

When the schedule reading is finished, the control means 8 is operated by operating the end key of the input means 4.
By this, the calendar information of this month is read from the calendar storage means 2 and the display of the display means 5 is switched to the calendar display (step 8w).

The schedule is read out as described above. According to the present invention, the presence / absence of the schedules of a plurality of users can be confirmed at one time, and the schedules that the user does not want to be known to others can be protected by registering the personal identification number, so that the privacy can be protected.

In the above embodiment, the importance of the schedule is not set, but it is possible to set whether or not the schedule is important when inputting the schedule, and when the schedule is read out. In addition, a mark (for example!) Indicating that it is an important schedule may be displayed as shown in FIG. 15, or the important schedule may be displayed differently from other schedules (for example, reverse display or color-coded).

In the above embodiment, only one type of daily schedule can be registered, but a plurality of schedule storage areas for one person per day are provided.
One person may be allowed to register a plurality of schedules in one day.

Further, the schedule time may be input at the time of inputting the schedule, and the fact may be notified when the schedule time is reached.

If there is a schedule such as a birthday on the same day every year, it may be automatically set after the following year by designating it every year when inputting.

It is also possible to switch to the schedule display for the next day by operating the next page key of the input means 4 while displaying the daily schedule.

The input means 4 may be provided with a key for the next month, and by operating this key, the calendar display for the next month may be displayed.

Further, the input means 4 is provided with a week display key,
By operating this key, for example, as shown in FIGS. 16 and 17, the schedule display for one week from the designated date may be displayed.

Next, the message function will be described.

First, the message input operation will be described with reference to the flowchart of FIG. First, when the message key of the input means 4 is operated and then the setting key is operated, the screen display of the display means 5 is switched from the normal calendar display to the message input display of a predetermined format by the control of the control means 8 (step A).

The message input display is, for example, as shown in FIG. In this display state, the cursor moving key of the input means 4 is operated to move the cursor e on the screen to a desired column, and the personal designation key, the kana key and the ten-key pad of the input means 4 are used to display the "a" in the figure. Message sender name ”
In column b, "Recipient name of message" and column c in "Message content"
And enter the "importance" of the message in field d. The "message sender name" and the "message receiver name" are designated by the individual designation key. The "importance" indicates whether or not the message is particularly important, and in this example, "1" or "0" is set in the field d with the ten keys. If "1" is set, it will be registered as an important message. The input message data is temporarily stored in the storage unit in the control means 8. When the input of the message data is completed, the execution key of the input means 4 is operated. As a result, the control means 8 stores the message data stored in the buffer together with the data of the current date and time being clocked by the clock means 1 in the empty area of the storage means 3 and the calendar storage means 2 for the calendar of this month. The information is read and the screen display of the display means 5 is returned to the calendar display. At this time, since important message data is stored in the storage means 3, in this case, as shown in FIG.
A message indicating that important message data is stored, such as "There is a message. Important" is displayed (step B). In addition, when the importantly designated message data is not stored in the storage unit 3, the message shown in FIG.
The "important" message shown in 0 is not displayed.

If the "message recipient name" is not entered in the field b when the message data is entered, it is stored as addressed to all except "message sender". Therefore, when inputting a message to all members other than oneself, nothing needs to be input in the entry field b of "receiver name of message".

Message input is performed as described above.

Next, an example of the message reading operation will be described with reference to the flowchart of FIG. First, if the message key of the input means 4 is operated and then the read key is operated,
By the control of the control means 8, the screen display of the display means 5 is switched from the normal calendar display to the message status display of a predetermined format (step C).

This message status display is shown in FIGS. 22 and 2, for example.
It looks like 3. FIG. 22 shows a message status display in which the message data is searched for by "message recipient name", which is first displayed on the display means 5 when the normal calendar display is switched to the message status display. For the message data for which the “message recipient name” has not been entered when the message is entered, one item is added to each of the fields. FIG. 23 is a message status display in which message data is searched by "message sender name", and is displayed on the display means 5 by operating the next page key of the input means 4 in the display state of FIG.
The "*" mark indicates that important message data is registered. 22 and 23 are sequentially switched and displayed each time the next page key of the input means 4 is operated.

Next, when the personal designation key of the input means 4 corresponding to the person who wants to read the message information is operated in the message status display state, the screen of the display means 5 is for inputting the personal identification number under the control of the control means 8. The display is switched (step D). FIG. 24 shows a code number input display when the item "1" is selected on the display screen shown in FIG.
On this display screen, the above selection items are highlighted and a message "Please enter your PIN" is displayed along with a PIN input field g.

Here, the personal identification number is input by operating the cursor movement keys and the ten keys of the input means 4. After inputting the personal identification number, the execution key of the input means 4 is operated. As a result, the control means 8 determines whether or not the input personal identification number and the personal identification number registered in advance corresponding to the "message recipient name" of the above selection item (step E).

If it is judged that they do not match by this matching judgment, the control means 8 controls and the message "Please input the password" on the display screen for inputting the password is replaced with "The password is different." Error message is displayed, the user inputs the password again (step F). When the execute key is operated, the process returns to step E, and the match determination is performed again.

When it is determined in step E that the two passwords match, the message data corresponding to the above selection item is read from the storage means 3 by the control of the control means 8 and stored in the control means 8. While being stored in the section, the display for inputting the personal identification number is switched to the message data display of one of FIGS. 25 and 26 (step G).

The display screen shown in FIG. 25 is a screen that is switched and displayed when any of the items classified by "message recipient name" shown in FIG. 22 is selected. The case where the item "1" is selected is shown. On this display screen, "message sender name", "message content", "date and time when message was entered" are displayed. The display screen shown in FIG. 26 is a screen that is switched and displayed when any of the items classified by “message sender name” shown in FIG. 23 is selected. Here, the item “3” in FIG. 23 is displayed. "" Is selected. In this display screen, "Recipient name of message", "Message content", "Date and time when message was entered"
Is displayed, and since this message data is designated as important, a "important" message is displayed. 25 and 26, if a plurality of message data corresponding to the above selection items are stored, the column h shown in FIG. 25 is controlled by the control means 8.
The message "There is next page" is displayed on. When the message "presence of next page" is displayed, the message data is sequentially switched and displayed each time the next page key of the input means 4 is operated. The switching order is, for example, the input date / time order.

After reading the displayed message data, by operating the completed key of the input means 4,
A message "done" is displayed in the column i shown in FIGS. After that, the data of the “completed” message is stored in the storage means 3 together with the message data, and when the message data is read again, the message “completed” is displayed in the column i as shown in FIGS. 25 and 26. . By displaying this "done" message, it is possible to confirm that the message data has been read once.

When ending the message reading operation, the end key of the input means 4 is operated. As a result, the control means 8 re-stores the message data stored in the storage part in the control means 8 in the original storage area of the storage means 3 and reads the calendar information of this month from the calendar storage means 2 to display the display means 5. To display. That is, when the message reading operation is completed, the calendar display is automatically restored (step H). If all the message data stored in the storage means 3 is stored together with the data of the above "completed" message, there is the "message" displayed in the column f shown in Fig. 20 in the calendar display. The message "." Is not displayed.

Message reading is performed as described above.

By the way, when erasing message data,
First, similarly to the above-mentioned read operation, the message data to be erased is read and displayed on the screen as shown in FIGS. Then, when the delete key of the input means 4 is operated, a message such as "Are you sure you want to delete?" Is displayed in the column j shown in FIG. Here, when the user operates the execution key of the input means 4 after confirming that the message data may be deleted, the storage means 3 corresponding to the read message data and the message data. The message data stored in is deleted and the display screen of the display means 5 is returned to the calendar display. If the message deletion is canceled when the message "Are you sure you want to delete?" Is displayed, you can operate the end key of the input means 4 and the above-mentioned message will be hidden by the control of the control means 8. , And return to the message data display screen similar to FIGS.

When correcting the message data, first, the message data to be corrected is read out and displayed on the screen as shown in FIGS. 25 and 26 in the same manner as the above-mentioned reading operation.
When the correction key of the input means 4 is operated, the control means 8
The screen display of the display means 5 is switched to the message correction display by the control of. For example, when correcting the message data displayed as shown in FIG. 26, the screen display of the display means 5 is switched to the message correction display shown in FIG. 28 by operating the correction key. Since the cursor e appears on this screen,
The cursor movement key is operated to move the cursor to a position to be corrected, and the message data is corrected using the individual designation key, the kana key and the ten key in the same manner as the message input. When the correction is completed, the execution key of the input means 4 is operated, and the storage means 3 is controlled by the control means 8.
The uncorrected message data stored in is rewritten with the corrected message data. If the end key is operated to stop the correction operation on the way, the message data display screen of FIGS. 25 and 26 is returned by the control of the control means 8.

Further, it is easy to use if it is registered as message data that is normally and frequently used so that it can be input with one touch. Therefore, when the shortened message is registered, when the shortened message key of the input means 4 is operated in the normal calendar display state, the screen display of the display means 5 is switched to the shortened message registration display shown in FIG. 29 by the control of the control means 8. In other words, by inputting message data using the kana key or ten key of the input means 4 and operating the execute key, the message data is stored in the storage means 3 together with the shortened data as shortened message data. By using this shortened message data, message input can be performed in a short time. That is, when the shortened message key is operated in the message input display state shown in FIG. 19, the shortened message data stored in the storage unit 3 is read out by the control of the control unit 8, and the information is stored in the message. Since it is displayed in each corresponding column of the input display screen, the message input can be completed simply by operating the execution key here.

In the above embodiment, the message data classified by individual is read out. However, an item or key for reading out only the message common to all is provided so that only the message common to all can be read out. May be.

Further, in the above embodiment, the calendar for one month is normally displayed on the display means 5, but the present invention is not limited to this, and the calendar period is arbitrarily set such as only one week or today's date. You can do it. For example, as shown in FIG. 30, it is normally assumed that the display screen has a small size and is normally shown in FIG.
Always show today's date and current time as shown in
If there is a schedule, the "schedule" mark k is turned on, if there is message data, the message "mark 1" is turned on, and if the message and schedule display is switched by a predetermined operation of the input means, the contents are scrolled or switched. 30 (b) and 30 (c).
Shows the display switching state during message reading. First, when the message read operation is performed, the display switches to the message status display as shown in FIG. Only one item of message status is displayed, and each time the next page key of the input means 4 is operated, the next item display is scrolled. When the execution key of the input means 4 is operated when the desired item is displayed, the display screen is switched to the message content display as shown in FIG. At this time, when there are a plurality of message data corresponding to the above selection items, the message "Next page exists" is displayed, so that the message data is sequentially switched and displayed each time the next page key is operated. Further, as shown in FIG. 31, a screen dedicated to displaying dates and calendars and a screen dedicated to displaying messages and schedules may be provided. That is, a dedicated display screen may be provided for each type of display content.
