In this way, the above-described automatic advance operation becomes possible.

The switching data stored by stepping the switching procedure related to each step described above is stored in advance in the ROM 37, RAM 3 of the control device 9 by the input operation of the input device 7.
It is stored in 8 in the following order.

Address 1 ... Program set switch 69 on.

Address 2 ... Turn on the program channel switch 65 switch "1".

Address 3 ... All seat selection switch 64 is turned on.

Address 4: Program set switch 69 is turned off.

Address 5 ... Student switch "A1" and evaluation switch 75 turned on.

This switching data is sequentially called by the "next step" switch 78 and executed.

This change in the state of the display pattern 77 is serially communicated to the master device 6 and the analog switches 17a and 17b of the central control unit 6B and the voice control unit 6A are switched. For example, when the all-seat designating switch 64 is turned on, the program voice signal from the master unit 6 supplied to the slave units 10A to 10N is switched to PGM1.

In this way, since the switching operation of the student switch 61 to the function switch 76 on the above-mentioned display pattern 77 can be switched while checking the switching operation according to the procedure with only one "next step" switch 78, erroneous operation can be eliminated, Even a beginner can surely achieve the desired operation.

Further, in order to be able to register the above-described procedure of automatic progress, the following procedure may be performed. First, select "Register automatic progress" on the menu screen, input the flow switching data as described above by operating the various switches with the light pen 30, and then display it on the display pattern 8b as shown in FIG. The issued "registration end" switch 79 is turned on.

As a result, the input switching data of the controller 9
Since it is recorded in RAM38 and can be reproduced by the above-mentioned method, it is possible to perform switching as desired by the operator. When a floppy disk drive device is attached to the control device 9 in parallel with the input device 7, it is possible to store this data in a floppy disk and read this data from there.

Further, when the automatic advance is made, the switch in the display pattern 77 to be pushed next is notified by a display such as blinking or color change without using the "next step" switch 78 described above, and the switch is indicated by the light pen 30. Of course, it may be configured so that it is possible to go to the next step by the operation. For example, as shown in FIG. 14, the blinking program set switch 69 is turned on by operating the light pen 30 (step) → (the turned on program set switch 69 stops blinking) → the program channel switch 65 Operate the blinking switch "1" with the light pen 30 to turn it on (step) → (the turned-on switch "1" stops blinking)
→ Switch the blinking all seats designation switch (ALL) 64 to the light pen 3
Operate with 0 to turn on (step) → (all seat designation switches 64 that have been turned on stop blinking) → Operate flashing program set switch 69 with light pen 30 to turn off (step) → (turned off) Program set switch 69 stops blinking) → Student switch "Ariga"
(Child device 1), the evaluation switch 75 is operated by the light pen 30 to turn it on (step).

In this way, by blinking the switch to be pressed, the operation can be easily remembered and the confirmation of the operation becomes easy.

In the above description, the display pattern 8a, 77 of the display device
Although inputting the input data by operating the light pen 30 has been described, it goes without saying that other methods, for example, a mechanical switch or a touch panel type screen switch can also be realized.

(Effects of the Invention) As described above, the language learning device according to the present invention is
The content of the input operation of the input device and the processing result of the input operation,
Since a control device that outputs a display signal to be displayed as an input image each time an input operation is performed is provided to the display device, an image of the display device is displayed each time an input operation is performed using a light pen, a touch panel, a key switch, etc. Since the contents of this input operation and the processing result of the input operation are sequentially displayed, the teacher on the master side performing the input operation checks the image on the display device each time the input operation is performed, and There is an effect that it is possible to prevent mistakes in advance, and a correct input operation can be surely executed, and as a result, there is an effect that teaching using the group learning device can be carried out smoothly.
