Abstract

PURPOSE:To surely recognize a state such as ON/OFF of a power source by a display part. CONSTITUTION:The device is provided with a clock part 1 by which a time as a reference for recording reservation is clocked, a recording and reproducing part 2 for performing recording and reproduction, an operating part 3 for operating the recording and reproducing part 2, a display part 5 for displaying the state of the recording and reproducing part 2, and a control part 4 by which the brightness and darkness of the display part 5, the display color of the display part 5, the operating part 3, recording and reproducing part 2 and display part 5 are controlled. Thus, at the time of ON/OFF of the power source, the brightness of the display part 5 is varied, and simultaneously the display color is varied.

Description

Detailed Description of the Invention

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a magnetic recording / reproducing apparatus having a display function.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art In recent years, a magnetic recording / reproducing apparatus has a built-in timer device, and recording reservation and its contents can be confirmed by a display function.

A conventional magnetic recording / reproducing apparatus will be described below. FIG. 2 is a block diagram of a conventional magnetic recording / reproducing apparatus. In FIG. 2, 6 is a clock unit for moving the time which is the basis of recording reservation, 7 is a recording / reproducing unit for recording and reproducing, 8 is an operating unit for operating the recording / reproducing unit, and 10 is a recording / reproducing unit. A display unit for displaying the state of 7,
Is a control unit for controlling display brightness control for controlling the brightness of the display unit 10 and for controlling the operation unit 8, the recording / reproducing unit 7, and the display unit 10.

The operation of the magnetic recording / reproducing apparatus having the above structure will be described below. First, the clock section 6 moves the time. The recording / reproducing unit 7 is operated from the operation unit 8 to turn the power on or off. Control unit 9
Controls the display unit 10 according to the state of the recording / reproducing unit 7. The display unit 10 displays according to the control unit 9. in this case,
The brightness of the display unit 10 changes depending on the time of the clock unit 6 and the state of the recording / reproducing unit 7. However, the display color of the display unit 10 is the same at any time.

[0005]

However, in the above-mentioned conventional structure, the display color of the display portion is the same at any time, and therefore, there is a problem that the change in state cannot be easily recognized.

The present invention solves the above-mentioned conventional problems, and an object of the present invention is to provide a magnetic recording / reproducing apparatus capable of reliably and easily recognizing a change in state.

[0007]

In order to achieve this object, a magnetic recording / reproducing apparatus of the present invention has a clock unit for moving a time serving as a reference for recording reservation, and a recording / reproducing unit for recording and reproducing.
A playback unit, an operation unit that operates the recording / playback unit, a display unit that displays the state of the recording / playback unit, a display brightness control that controls the brightness of the display unit, and a display color that controls the display color of the display unit. By including the control unit, the operation unit, the recording / reproducing unit, and the control unit that controls the display unit, the brightness of the display unit is controlled and the display color is controlled, and the brightness of the display unit is changed and the display color is changed. It has a configuration that can change.

[0008]

With this configuration, by controlling the brightness and the display color of the display section, it is possible to surely and easily recognize the change in the state.

[0009]

【Example】

(Embodiment 1) An embodiment of the present invention will be described below with reference to the drawings.

In FIG. 1, reference numeral 1 is a clock section for moving a time which is the basis of recording reservation, 2 is a recording / reproducing section for recording and reproducing, 3 is an operating section for operating the recording / reproducing section 2, and 5 is recording. / Display unit 4 for displaying the status of the reproducing unit 2 and display unit 5
And a display color control for controlling the display color of the display unit 5, a control unit for controlling the operation unit 3, the recording / reproducing unit 2, and the display unit 5.

The operation of the magnetic recording / reproducing apparatus configured as described above will be described with reference to FIG. Operation part 3
Operate the recording / playback unit 2 to turn the power on or off
Put in a state. The control unit 4 follows the state of the recording / playback unit 2,
If the power is on, the counter etc. is displayed on the display unit 5
If it is FF, a display such as a clock is displayed on the display unit 5. In this case, the brightness and the display color of the display unit 5 are, for example, the power ON.
In some cases, the display color is yellow and bright, and the power is turned on.
In FF, the display color is green and dark.

As described above, according to the present embodiment, the clock unit 1 for moving the time that is the reference for recording reservation, the recording / reproducing unit 2 for recording and reproducing, and the operation for operating the recording / reproducing unit 2. Display section 5 for displaying the states of section 3 and recording / reproducing section 2
Display brightness control for controlling the brightness of the display unit 5, display color control for controlling the display color of the display unit 5, the operation unit 3, and recording /
By providing the control unit 4 for controlling the reproduction unit 2 and the display unit 5, it is possible to change the brightness of the display unit 5 and the display color.

[0013]

As described above, according to the present invention, the power is turned on / off by changing the brightness of the display portion and the display color.
It is possible to realize an excellent magnetic recording / reproducing apparatus capable of surely recognizing a state such as OFF.
