JPS62208723A - Selective call receiver with display - Google Patents

Abstract

PURPOSE:To display automatically the elapsed time from the reception till the display at each call of message by the operation of a recall button by providing plural timers and message storage circuits in response to the reception of plural messages. CONSTITUTION:When the 1st selective call reception signal is received, the output of a decoder 3 raises the 1st timer 17a and the message content is stored in the 1st message (area) of a message storage circuit. A timer and a storage circuit are rised in pairs at each reception similarly and the content is stored. In calling the stored message, a recall button 20 is depressed, the 1st - n-th message are called from the message storage circuit 19, displayed on a display device 11 and the elapsed time from the rising point of time of the 1st - n-th timers 17a-17n corresponding to the 1st - n-th message is displayed on the display device 11, then the user can recognize the elapsed time from the reception time to the recalling respect to the plural number of receptions.

Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a selective call receiving device with a display having a selective call function and a message function including a timer display.

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION FIG. 2 is a block diagram showing a conventional selective call receiving apparatus with display. Below is the first part about the configuration of this conventional example.
This will be explained with figures. In Fig. 2, 1 is an antenna;
2 is a receiving section, 3 is a decoder, 4 is rtoM, 5 is a sound generation circuit, 6 is a sounding body, 7 is a timer, 8 is a message editing circuit, 9 is a message storage circuit, 10 is a display drive circuit, 11 is a display 12 is a timer preset switch.

Next, the operation of the above conventional example will be explained. In FIG. 1, a selective call signal received by an antenna 1 and a receiver 2 is compared with a selective call number stored in a ROM 4 in a decoder 3, and if they match, the signal is sent to a sound generator via a sound generation circuit 5. 6 to generate a ringing sound to notify that there is a call.

On the other hand, the display message signal sent after the selective call signal is decoded by the decoder 3 and then sent to the message editing circuit 8.
After being converted into non-sage data, the message is stored in the message storage circuit 9G and, if necessary, is displayed on the display 10 via the display drive circuit 10.

Further, the timer 7, which has been set with the timer preset switch 12, recognizes the time when the selective call signal is received, stores it in the message storage circuit 9 in association with the message, and displays it on the display 11 as necessary. to be displayed.

Problems to be Solved by the Invention However, in the conventional selective call receiving device equipped with a timer, the timer must be preset every time the timer is started, and if the timer is not preset and is used, the display will not show up. There was a problem that the wrong time was displayed in the message.

The present invention solves these conventional problems,
Without having to adjust the preset time of the timer,
It is an object of the present invention to provide a selective call receiving device that can display the time difference between the current time and the time when a selective call signal is received.

Means for Solving the Problems In order to achieve the above object, the present invention is configured such that a plurality of messages can be stored in a plurality of storage circuits in a message storage circuit, and one-to-one correspondence is provided to each storage circuit. A timer (group) is provided, one timer is started each time a call signal with a message is received, the message contents are stored in a memory circuit, and when the message is called, the elapsed time from reception to the call is recorded along with the message contents. It is configured so that it can be displayed.

Therefore, according to the present invention, the time difference between the time of recall and the time of reception is automatically displayed by 42 times.

Embodiment FIG. 1 is a block diagram showing the configuration of an embodiment of the present invention, and the same reference numerals as in FIG. 2 represent the same names. In FIG. 1, 17 is a timer, and a plurality of (first, second to nth) timers 17a, 17b...17n
, and one-to-one information is stored in a plurality of storage areas (first, second, . . . , th message) in the message storage circuit 19.
It is supported by

20 is a recall button.

Next, the operation of the embodiment will be explained. When the first selective call reception signal is received, the output of the decoder 3 starts the first timer 17a and the message contents are stored in the first message (area) of the message storage circuit 19. Next, by the second reception, the second timer is similarly started and the second message 19b is stored, and every time thereafter, the timer and memory circuit are similarly started as a pair and stored. . To recall the next stored message, press the recall button 20, and the first to nth messages will be sequentially recalled from the message storage circuit 19 and displayed on the display 11. The elapsed times from the rising time of the first to first timers 17a to 17n corresponding to the messages are simultaneously displayed on the display 11, so that the user can check the elapsed time from the reception time to the recall for each of the plurality of messages received. I can tell the time.

As described above, according to the above embodiment, there is no need to preset a timer, and moreover, there is an effect that the elapsed time after each reception is displayed for a plurality of receptions.

Note that the message editing circuit 8 and the message driving circuit 10
, display 11, etc. constitute message display means.

Effects of the Invention As is clear from the above embodiments, the present invention is configured to include a plurality of timers and message storage circuits in response to the reception of a plurality of messages. This has the effect of automatically displaying the elapsed time from the time until the display.
