The memory 5 stores the pitch and the length of the sound as voiced data in combination. The length of the note corresponds to, for example, a half note, a quarter note, an eighth note, and a sixteenth note, and they are combined with the scale “do” to one octave higher “mi”. Stored. When these are read out and displayed on the display unit 8, they are represented by a character representing a scale and a note symbol.
# In FIG. 3 is a pound sign. Silence data is also stored in the memory 5. The silent data is also stored in units each having the same length as each half note, quarter note, eighth note, and sixteenth note. Regarding silence data, when that data is read and displayed,
A note symbol for indicating the length and a letter R indicating a rest are displayed. The control unit 4 has a display function of displaying these voiced data or silent data. Editing data is also stored in the memory 5 in order to register the pager while newly editing the melody. The stored editing data includes data indicating insertion, data indicating deletion, data indicating the sounding of the melody formed up to that point in the editing process, data indicating the end of input, and the like. When these editing data are displayed on the display unit 8, the corresponding symbols as shown in FIG. 3 are displayed. The control unit 4 displays the editing data,
It also has an editing function to assist the owner in editing.

Here, in order to make the pager ring a melody desired by the owner instead of the beep sound at the time of reception,
A method [I] for registering a new melody in the pager, a method [II] for registering a new melody in the pager from the telephone side, and a method [III] for sending a message from the telephone side and ringing the melody in this pager. Will be explained. [I] Method of registering a new melody in the pager in order to make the pager play a melody desired by the owner instead of the beep sound upon reception FIG. 4 is a flowchart showing a procedure of melody registration, and FIG. 1) to (9) are views for explaining the display on the LCD display section in FIG. 1. In step S1 in FIG. 4, the operation mode of the pager is set to the melody registration mode using the main key or the like. As a result, the LCD display unit 8 displays the initial screen for melody registration as shown in FIG. This initial screen for registration is prepared for registering the title of the newly registered melody. In this state, the control unit 4 causes the cursor to blink at the left end 20 of the upper input area on the initial screen for melody registration.

In step S2, the owner operates the left select key 17 and the right select key 18 to search for the first character of the melody. The control unit 4 scrolls and reads the data of the katakana stored in the memory 5 in response to the key operation, and displays the katakana at the position of the cursor on the LCD display unit 8. For example, when the right select key 18 is pressed, the displayed characters are displayed in the order of A, I, U, E, O ... By pressing the left select key 17, the displayed character changes in the opposite direction. When the desired character is displayed at the cursor position, the holder presses the set key 16 (step S3). Step S
In 4, the control unit 4 determines whether the character or mark displayed when the set key is pressed is not a mark indicating the end. If it is not the mark indicating the end, the control unit 4 moves the cursor. Move only to the next location. After that, steps S2 to S4 are repeated, and the title of the melody is set, for example, as shown in FIG.

When it is determined in step S4 that the mark displayed when the set key is pressed is the mark indicating the end, for example, "Ainothanka" formed by then is determined as the title. . Step S
5, the control unit 4 controls the LCD display unit 8 as shown in FIG.
Display the melody input screen of (5). In the subsequent step S6, the cursor is blinked at the first position of the input area of the LCD display unit 8, and in step S7, the control unit 4 displays the note symbols and characters corresponding to the first voiced data candidate by the display function. , For example, eighth note symbols and "do"
Is read from the memory 5 and displayed. That is, a combination of a musical note symbol and a character of voiced data is displayed at the position of the cursor. In step S8, the owner operates the left select key 17 and the right select key 18. The control unit 4 reads voiced data, silent data, or editing data from the memory 5 while scrolling in response to a key operation, and displays a corresponding symbol or character on the LCD display unit 8.

FIG. 6 is a diagram for explaining a change in display due to scrolling. For example, when the right select key 18 is pressed, the displayed voiced data, silence data, and editing data are moved to the right in FIG. 3, and are moved to the leftmost of the lower stage at the transition of the stage. By pressing the left select key 17, the displayed voiced data, silence data, and editing data are moved to the left in FIG. 3, and to the right of the upper row at the transition of the row. In step S9, when the owner displays the desired sound data, silence data, or characters and symbols corresponding to the editing data,
Press the set key. Thereby, for example, one sound or silence is selected. The control unit 4 writes the voiced data or the silent data corresponding to the selection into the memory 6 by the registration function (writing process).

In step S10, the control unit 4 determines the character and symbol selected in step S9. When the selected data is voiced data or silent data, the cursor is moved to the next input area in step S11. . In the subsequent processing, steps S6 to S11 are repeated. In other words, the control unit 4 reads the first eighth note symbol and the character "do" from the memory 5 at the new cursor position, displays them, and causes the holder to select again. Here, the display symbol and the character once selected are continuously displayed by the display column forming function of the control unit 4, and the step S
By repeating 7 to S11, a display string of symbols and characters is formed. Further, melody data is formed on the memory 6. If the display capability of the LCD display unit 8 is only 12 sounds or 12 silences, for example, the control unit 4
Switches the display screen and displays the display columns that exceed it. When it is determined in step S10 that the data selected in step S9 is the end data, step S12
Then, the control unit 4 registers the melody data held in the memory 6 together with the previously fixed title. Then, “OK” is displayed on the LCD display unit 8. Now, the melody desired by the owner is newly registered in the pager.

When the cursor is moved to an arbitrary position in the display row by a key operation by the holder after a series of processing steps or the end, and a symbol corresponding to the editing data is set there, the control unit 4 Control is performed according to the type of editing data according to the editing function. For example, when a deletion symbol is set, the corresponding symbol is deleted and the corresponding voiced data or silent data in the melody data is deleted. When the symbol corresponding to the insertion data is set, the data for insertion is scrolled and read from the memory 5, and the corresponding symbol and character are displayed at the cursor position.
The insertion data selected by the display result is inserted into the melody data. Further, when a symbol corresponding to the data instructing the ringing of the editing data is set, the control unit 4
Reads the melody data formed so far from the memory 6 and gives it to the oscillating means 9. The oscillating means 9 oscillates according to the melody data, and the sounder 12 sounds a melody. The melody data finally registered as described above is sequentially read from the second memory by the melody ringing function of the control unit 4 and given to the oscillation means 9 when a call is made to the pager. The oscillating means 9 oscillates in accordance with the melody data, and the newly registered melody sounds from the sounder 12 instead of the beep sound.

[II] Method of registering a new melody into the pager from the telephone side In the memory 5 of the pager, as shown in FIG. 3, a half note, a quarter note, an eighth note, And the pitch corresponding to each 16th note and the pitch of the note are stored in combination, and with respect to the silent data, each half note, 4
It is stored in units each having the same length as a quarter note, an eighth note, and a sixteenth note. Therefore, on the telephone side, the length of one note is a half note, a quarter note, an eighth note,
And a sixteenth note, the pitch of the note is represented by a scale, and a silent period is represented by notes and letters. FIG. 7 is a diagram illustrating a configuration example of the melody transmission code table. By referring to the melody transmission code table, the voiced data and the silent data to be transmitted are generated by the push button type telephone. The voiced data and the silence data are created by pressing two number buttons of the telephone according to the melody transmission code table.

FIGS. 8 (1) and 8 (2) are diagrams showing a push button of the telephone and a numeric message in melody registration. On the telephone side, in order to register the ringing melody that substitutes for the beep sound in the pager, after specifying the unique number of the target pager, first, the push buttons corresponding to the code indicating the ringing melody registration are sequentially pressed. FIG.
In the example of (1), the push buttons corresponding to “*** 1” are pressed in this order. After pressing the calling melody registration code, the telephone set sequentially presses the numeric buttons corresponding to the calling melody. For example, when registering "Jingle Bells", it starts with "Mi".
"4", "2" with reference to the melody transmission code table of FIG.
Press continuously. Since the following sound is also "mi", the telephone set continuously presses "4" and "2". In this way, the telephone side connects the voiced data and the silent data corresponding to the "Jingle Bell" melody and sends them to the base station.
The base station wirelessly transmits the data corresponding to the pressed button on the telephone side to the pager as a numerical message as shown in FIG. 8 (2). In the pager, the numeric message is received by the receiver 2 via the antenna 1, and the decoder 3
The received signal output by the receiver 2 is analyzed. By this analysis, the number button pressed on the telephone side is determined. By the registration function, the control unit 4 reads out the voiced data and the silent data designated by the determined numeric buttons from the memory 5 and writes them in the memory 6 in order. As a result, melody data is formed in the memory 6. When the numerical message indicates the end of the melody, the control unit 4 registers the melody formed up to that point in the memory 6 as a new melody.

[III] A method of displaying a message sent from the telephone side and sounding a melody corresponding to an instruction from the telephone side will be described. For the pager of this embodiment, a message such as "Ohayo", "Oyasumi", or "Happy Birthday" transmitted from the telephone side can be displayed with a melody (song). As a message sent by the telephone, a free message of a person who uses the telephone, a fixed fixed sentence, or a self-made fixed sentence can be transmitted. The fixed phrase is a sentence stored in advance in the pager, and the self-made phrase is a sentence arbitrarily registered by the owner in the pager. The melody may be a free melody, a fixed calling melody, a self-made calling melody, or the like. When making a free melody sound, the user of the telephone transmits melody data in order to correspond to the free message, for example. The fixed ringing melody or the self-made ringing melody is a melody that is fixed and stored in advance in the pager or a melody registered by the owner of the pager, and the telephone side transmits selected data in order to selectively ring the melody. Here, a case where the telephone set transmits a free message and data for selecting a fixed melody will be described.

FIGS. 9 (1) and 9 (2) are explanatory views in the case of transferring the selection data of the free message and the fixed melody, showing the input on the telephone and the numerical message.
After designating the unique number of the target pager, the telephone side sequentially presses the push buttons corresponding to the code indicating the start of the free message. In the example of FIG. 9, "*** 2" is the code. Next to the code indicating the start of the free message, the push buttons corresponding to the free message are sequentially pressed. Also regarding the free message, the conversion code table (not shown) is referred to, and each katakana in the free message is also represented by a combination of two number buttons.
For example, the number buttons "1" and "5" are continuously pressed to represent "O". To represent the subsequent "ta", the number buttons "4" and "1" are continuously pressed. Do the same in the same way below.
Message is constructed. After that, the push button corresponding to the code designating the fixed melody is pressed. In the example of FIG. 9, "*** 3" corresponds to the code. When the pressing of the code designating the fixed melody is completed, the telephone set side indicates the data for selecting a plurality of fixed melody stored in the memory 5 by pressing the numeric buttons. For example, when selecting the melody data of "happy birthday", the number buttons of "0" and "1" are pressed. The telephone sends these messages and data for selecting a fixed melody to the base station, and the base station wirelessly transmits a numeric message corresponding to the data for selecting the message and the fixed melody to the pager. In the pager,
The transmitted numeric message is received by the receiver 2 via the antenna 1, and the decoder 3 analyzes the received signal output by the receiver 2. By this analysis, the set of numeric buttons pressed on the telephone side is determined. The control unit 4 reads the katakana corresponding to the determined set of numeric buttons from the memory 5 and displays it on the LCD display unit 8 and also reads the selected fixed melody data from the memory 5 in order by the melody ringing function. put out. Then, the melody data is given to the oscillating means 9 to be sounded from the sounder 12.

Next, a case where a free message and a free melody are sent from the telephone side to the pager will be described.
10 (1), (2), and (3) are explanatory diagrams in the case where a free message and a free melody are sent from the telephone side to the pager. It is shown. After designating the unique number of the target pager, the telephone side sequentially presses the push buttons corresponding to the code indicating the start of the free message. In the example of FIG. 10, "*** 2" is the code. Next to the code indicating the start of the free message, the push buttons corresponding to the free message are sequentially pressed. Also in this case, each katakana is represented by a combination of two number buttons. For example, to represent "me",
The number buttons “7” and “4” are continuously pressed. Numerical buttons "9" and "2" are continuously pressed to indicate the subsequent "li". Similarly, the message of "Merry Christmas" is constructed. When that ends,
The push button corresponding to the code for starting the free melody is pressed. In the example of FIG. 10, "*** 4" corresponds to the code. After pressing the free melody start code, the telephone set sequentially presses the numeric buttons corresponding to the free melody. For example, when "Jingle Bell" is registered, it starts with "Mi", so the telephone set side continuously presses "4" and "2" with reference to the melody transmission code table of FIG. Since the following sound is also "Mi", the telephone side is "4""2"
Press continuously. In this way, the telephone side connects the free message and the voiced data and the silent data corresponding to the melody of "Jingle Bell" and sends them to the base station. The base station stores the data corresponding to the button pressed on the telephone side,
It is wirelessly transmitted to the pager as a numerical message as shown in FIG.

In the pager, the transmitted numerical message is received by the receiver 2 via the antenna 1 and is transmitted to the decoder 3
Analyzes the received signal output by the receiver 2. By this analysis, the set of numeric buttons pressed on the telephone side is determined. The control unit 4 reads the katakana corresponding to the determined set of numeric buttons from the memory 5 and displays it on the LCD display unit 8, and at the same time, by the melody ringing function, the voiced data and the silent data that form the free melody are displayed. Memory 5
Then, the free melody is sounded from the sounder 12 by sequentially reading the data, writing the data in the memory 6, and sequentially supplying the data to the oscillating means 9. As described above, in this embodiment, the pager is provided with the first and second memories 5 and 6, and the memory 5 is provided with the memory shown in FIG.
As shown in FIG. 4, the control unit 4 stores in advance the voiced data in which the length and pitch of the sound are paired and the silent data indicating the silent period.
On the other hand, a display function of scrolling and reading them and displaying them on the LCD display unit 8, a registration function of registering melody data in the memory 6, and a melody ringing function of ringing a melody registered in the second memory. Because I had
The owner's favorite melody can be played instead of the beep sound.
