Abstract

PURPOSE:To simplify clearing operation of a schedule by forming an area for specifying the storage of data to be stored in a storage means for storing schedule data. CONSTITUTION:An area (e) is a storage area for specifying whether content data assigned to respective time data are data to be stored, i.e. storing data, or not, and when the data are storing data, an unerasing mark code M is stored (the code is set up by using a mark key on a key entry part 1). At the erasing of schedule data, data specified so as to be stored out of stored schedule data are not erased.

Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION [Technical Field of the Invention] The present invention relates to a schedule table 11<device for storing schedules for meetings, outings, etc., and for recalling and displaying the schedules.

[Background of the invention 5: Compact electronic devices are becoming increasingly multi-functional, and one known device is one that incorporates what is called a scheduler. In this type of scheduler device, this is used as a method for clearing schedule data.

Two methods are generally adopted: (1) a method in which schedule data is deleted one by one; and (2) a method in which all schedule data for a certain period is deleted.

However, with the 6 methods of deleting schedule data one by one (data of a certain time and the contents assigned to that time), it takes an hour to delete a lot of schedule data, and schedule data for a certain period In the method of erasing all data, data that is not desired to be erased is also erased by -X, which is inconvenient.

[Purpose of the invention] This invention was made in view of the above-mentioned 4G situation, and its purpose is to automatically delete unnecessary data when clearing, and automatically delete data that you do not want to delete. An object of the present invention is to provide a schedule display device in which schedules can be saved automatically.

[Summary of the Invention] The present invention provides an area for specifying the storage of data to be stored in a storage stage for storing schedule data, and when deleting schedule data, saves among the stored schedule data. The gist of this is that data that has been specified will not be deleted.

[Example] Hereinafter, one embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings.

FIG. 1 is a small circuit block diagram of the schedule display device of the embodiment, and l is a key manual section, and various keys, such as a mote key (not shown) for setting the registration/display mode of the schedule device. ), character key 1a, fi character key 1
b1 machine key 1c, scroll key 1d, le, seek L/7t+-1f, mark key 1g, clear key i
h, a schedule key 1i, a calendar key 1j, etc.

The control section 2 controls the operation of the entire apparatus according to data input from the key human power section 1, and is connected to a schedule search section 3, a schedule control section 4, and the like.

The schedule search unit 3 operates in a schedule display mode, and responds to a search command from the control unit 2 and a search start address received from the control unit 2 via the calendar designation unit 5 to the schedule storage unit 3.
0 is searched and the result is sent back to the control section 2.

Specify a calendar? B5 inputs the search start address to the schedule search section 3 and also stores the calendar ROM 6.
, the calendar ROM 6 sends the calendar data for the period (here, month) specified by the calendar specifying section 5 to the character generator CG7, and the character generator CG7 generates the corresponding calendar display pattern according to the control signal sent from the control section 2. Data is displayed on display section 8 (
The display buffer 9 (in this case, a display RAM with a capacity for one screen of one display section) is sent to a location specified by the address from the control unit 2. Import the data that is being sent.

The schedule control section 4 controls access to the schedule storage section 10 and content data storage #B11, and in the registration mode, the schedule storage section 10 and the schedule storage section 10 are controlled according to schedule data and registration commands given from the key human power section 1 via the control section 2. Write control to the content data storage section 11 is performed.

For convenience of explanation, the data stored in the schedule storage unit 1O is shown in (A) of FIG. 2, and the data stored in the content data storage unit 1'l is shown in (A) of FIG. 3. Shown in
As can be seen from FIG. 2 (A), area a has schedule date t data, area b has schedule time data, and area C has content data storage unit 11 at the same time. address is stored, and on the content data storage unit 11 side, the content data of the schedule is stored in the location specified by this address ((A) #!!1.ri in Fig. 3, and area d). is a storage area that determines whether the content data assigned to each time data is data to be kept secret, that is, secret data; in the case of secret data, a secret code S is memorized (this is set by using the secret key of the key personnel),
Furthermore, area e is a storage area that specifies whether the content data assigned to each time data is data that needs to be saved, that is, saved data, and if it is saved data, the code M with an indelible mark is memorized (this is set by using the mark key in the machine department).

Now, returning to FIG. 1, to explain other functions of the schedule control section 4, in the schedule display mode, the schedule control section 4 uses the secret flag section 12.
The control is performed depending on whether or not the content data has been reset, and if it has been reset (meaning that the secret is secured), the schedule storage unit checks whether the content data read from the content data storage unit 11 is secret data or not. 1
Add I depending on whether secret code S is detected from 0,
If 71 is added to the secret f - evening, the display mask section 13 is instructed to mask the same secret data. If the secret flag section 12 is set (meaning that the secret is released, and such cancellation is performed by inputting the secret number using the secret key and numerical keys of the key human power section 1), the schedule control section 4 sets the mask. Without outputting a command, the data read from the schedule storage section 10 and the content data storage section 11 are combined into a schedule format and output, passed through the table small mask section 13 and supplied to the character generator CG14. This character generator CG
14 supplies the corresponding schedule display pattern data to the buffer γ9 according to the DI data manually input from the control unit 2'. Furthermore, in the schedule clear mode (designated by operating the clear key of the key human power section 1), the schedule control section 4 stores the schedule storage section 1O and content data storage section 11 in accordance with the clear command given by the control section 2. The included schedule data is deleted, but the schedule data related to the code of the indelible mark M (see (A) in FIG. 2) is saved without being deleted. Next, the operation of the apparatus having the following configuration will be explained.

Registration of schedule data First, set the device to registration mode using the mode key (L4 not shown). Then, using the calendar key 1j, the schedule key 1i, the 6-character key 1b, and the character key 1a, the data of the date 1 and time of the schedule and the content data are entered manually.

As a result, the schedule control unit 4 receives the registration command and schedule data including date, time, and content from the control unit 2, and stores the schedule data in the schedule storage unit IO and the content data storage unit 11.
3-inclusive access control.

In this case, the user operates mark key 1 [ when inputting data that the user wants to save and delete, that is, schedule data that he does not want to delete, and when inputting data that he wants to keep secret. operates the secret key if.

These pieces of information are also stored in the schedule storage unit IO via the control unit 2 and schedule control unit 4. As a result.

The schedule storage section 10 stores data as illustrated in (A) of FIG. 2, and the content data storage section 11 stores data as illustrated in (A) of FIG. 3.

Calendar display (reservation display: Figures 5 and 7) First, specify the display mode using the remote key (not shown). This operation mode is entered by operating . That is, the control section 2 instructs the calendar specifying section 5 to create a calendar for the specified month (for example, August 1986) (step A20 in FIG. 7). Further, the schedule search unit 3 receives a search command from the control unit 2 and also receives a search start address for the schedule storage unit 10 from the calendar specification unit 5.
The data to be read from 8: and the data to be compared (data of the first eye of the month, for example 864F8 Jl l H and time zone boundary data, here data of +IF and 'F) are initialized (step A21).

Then, in step A22, the schedule data (
Date and hour data in areas a and b in Figure 2 (A))
, and compare this read data with reference 11 data (in this case, 1986 8 Jl l I+ data) to see if they match (step A23).
As can be seen from Figure 5, in this case they match, so
The schedule time data fetched from area b of the schedule storage unit IO in step A26 is compared with noon data, which is reference data, to determine whether the schedule time data is morning or afternoon (step A24), as shown in FIG. As you can see, in this case, the schedule time data is morning data, so the schedule search section will search for the search result (contains an appointment in the morning of August 1, 1986).
In response to this, the controller 2 specifies an address for the character generator CG 14 to store the upper segment pattern to be displayed, outputs the upper segment pattern data, and also sends the upper segment pattern data to the display buffer 9. Specify the location where this data should be imported and import the segment pattern data into that location (Step A
25) As a result, the screen of the display unit 8 displays the 0th schedule in which a segment indicating that there is a reservation in the morning is displayed in the upper left of the 1st day of the calendar for August 1986, as shown in Fig. 5. The search section 3 increments 7 traces by 1 (Step A27), and fetches the next schedule data from the schedule storage section 10 (Step A22). From then on, processing is performed in the same manner, but the data with 11 of the fetched schedule data is If it does not match the reference 11 data, the reference date data is sent to Step A28), and it is determined whether the search for one month has been completed.If not, the search is performed again. , step A23) compared with the date data of the schedule.
This is repeated until a match is found.If it is determined in step A24 that the time data of the schedule is after 'F', the search result is notified to the control section 2, and in response, the control section 2 stores the display buffer 9. (step A26).

FIG. 5 shows the screen displayed on the display unit 8 as a result of the search processing for August 1986 described below. From this diagram, the user can immediately know whether there is a reservation or not.

That is, 8 J-J I H'F 荊, morning of the 12th, 2
You can easily find out that there are reservations for the morning and afternoon of the 20th, and for the pole and afternoon of the 26th.

Fig. 6 shows a calendar display of the schedule data for August 1986 after the schedule data, which will be described later, has been deleted.From this figure, only the saved data related to the non-erasable mark M is left. I know that there is.

First, specify the display mode using the mode key (not shown).0 Next, if you want to cancel the secret, operate the number key 1b (for entering the secret number) and the secret key if, otherwise use this operation. As a result, only when a correct gic credit number is input, the secret flag section 12 is set and the secret is set to be released. Finally, number keys (to specify the date, e.g. 1986 8 B 2
20) and operates the schedule key 1i, the operation shown in FIG. 8 is started.

That is, the schedule control unit 4 receives an instruction from the control unit 2 to display the schedule data of specification 11, accesses the schedule storage unit 10 and the content data storage unit 11, and displays the schedule data of August 2211, specified [1]. (step A30), and then the schedule control section 4 checks the contents of the secret flag section 12 to determine whether the secret has been released (step A30). Step A
31) If the code has not been released, it is determined whether the code imported from area d of the schedule storage unit 10 is a secret code (step A32); in this case,
As can be seen from FIG. 2(A), since the first data does not have a secret code, the process jumps to step A34. Here, the schedule control unit 4 loads the fetched schedule key into the display buffer 9.
It instructs the control unit 2 to specify a control signal in the character generator CG14 and an address in the display buffer 9, and outputs the schedule data in a predetermined order (the order instructed by the control unit 2), passing through the display mask unit 13. The data converted into a display pattern by the character generator CG14 is sent to the display buffer 9,
The display buffer 9 takes in the data sent to the location specified by the control unit 2 (in this case, a predetermined location in the first stage of the buffer) (step A34).

Next, the schedule control unit 4 determines whether the data written into the display buffer 9 is the data in the fourth stage (step A35). In this case, the written data is in the first stage of 87122, 1986 in the schedule storage unit IO. data (see FIG. 2 (A)), so the address is incremented by 1 (step A36) and the data in the second stage of August 22, 1986 in the schedule storage unit IO and the schedule in the related content data storage unit 11 are stored. The data is increased (step A30), and the same operation is repeated, but in this example (when displaying schedule data for August 22, 1986 without the secret being released) , 3 rows] is assigned the secret code S; 1□1 (see Figure 2 (A) 8)
Therefore, it is determined in step A32 that this data has a secret code. Therefore, the schedule control section 4 specifies a mask for the display mask section 13 (step A33), and the display mask section 13 masks the content data sent from the schedule Vl11 section 4, in this case, the code of "Seisankaigi". Kake,
The character generator CG14 is addressed to output a mask pattern (one pattern in this case). As a result, in the third stage 11 of the one display buffer, two books as shown in FIG. 54 are written in the content data location. Finally, if it is determined in step A35 that the data is in the fourth row, the execution of the schedule data display command is completed, and at this time, the screen of the 1 display section 8 displays the data as shown in FIG. 4 (A). Schedule data is displayed in the format.

If the secret flag unit 12 is set, that is, if the secret is released, step A
Since the determination result in step A31 is YES, the machine program proceeds to step A34 without applying a mask command to the content data, and the schedule data is written in a predetermined position of the 1 display buffer 9 in the form of a schedule.

FIG. 4(B) shows the contents displayed on the screen of the display section 8 as a result of executing the 1 display command in the secret release mode for the schedule data of August 26, 1986.

As shown in FIG. 2(A), the schedule storage unit 10 stores five rows of data for August 22, 1986, so if you want to see the data in the fifth row, press the key. All you have to do is operate the scroll keys 1d and le of the human power section l.If you press the forward scroll key 1e once, the control section 2
commands the schedule control unit 4 to increment the top address to be accessed by 1 and causes the table/table to execute the command. As a result, lo in the second row of Figure 4:
00r Hanpai Kaigi'' moves to the top row, and in the same way, the third row becomes 21';t i, I, 4 rows [1 is 3 rows 1], and the 5th row [1 is the highest row in the schedule format area It appears in the fourth row.

Although it is not specified in FIG. 8, if there are less than four stages of reservation data on the designated date, for example, only three stages, the schedule storage unit 10 to four stages is stored in step A30. When reading the column, the data with 11 becomes the data of 11+1 after the specified [1, so this is detected and the execution of the display command is ended.

First, use the calendar key 1j and number key 1b to specify the month to be cleared. Then, when you operate the clear key lh, the start address and clear command for that month are sent from the control unit 2 to the schedule control unit 4. Control unit 2
generates the address assigned at the beginning of the month and reads the contents of the first address of the indelible mark area e of the schedule storage unit 10 shown in FIG. 2(A) (step A40), and in step A41. , it is determined whether the read data is a code of an indelible mark M or not. In the case of an indelible mark, proceed to step 7 A43 without erasing the schedule data in the schedule storage unit lO and content data storage unit 11 assigned to the mark, and the clearing process for one month is completed. Determine whether or not, complete γ
If not, increment the address (step A44), read the contents of the next address of the non-erasable mark area e, and repeat the operation described above.If the read data is not the code of the non-erasable mark M, is step A4
In step 2, the schedule data in the schedule storage section 10 and the content data storage section 11 assigned to the unmarked code is erased.

That is, the content of the next address is written to the address in the content data storage unit ll assigned to the unmarked code, and the area a in the schedule storage unit 10 that is rang for the unmarked code is written. , b, and d with the contents of the next address, then in step A43)
, a and r1 are performed, and the operations described in -h are repeated until the clearing process for one month is completed.

FIG. 2(B) and FIG. 3(B) show the data for August 1986 remaining in the schedule storage unit 10 and content data storage unit 11 as a result of the schedule clearing described above.

As can be seen from FIG. 2(B), only schedule data with a code of indelible mark M is saved. It should be noted that ADDoooo merely indicates the top address for August 1986 for convenience, and does not indicate the top address (actual address) of the content data for the entire period.

In the example, the calendar is displayed for one month, but the calendar display is not limited to this, and any other suitable period may be used. You can also change the length of the search period (the length of the search period) or turn it off.
(It is seven.

In addition, as a reservation display, '[early and afternoon] is set to r1, but this is not limited to this, and it is possible to determine whether there is a reservation in the width or not, or to determine the time zone in more detail. The results may also be displayed.

Furthermore, the display formats of reservation display and calendar display can be selected from the design point of F'1.In short, it is sufficient as long as it is displayed so that you can see when and when the reservation is included. It is.

(B) Schedule data display relationship In the above embodiment, only the content data of the schedule data specified by the secret code S, that is, the secret data (time data and content data) is masked i+l.
However, it is also possible to mask the 1-hour data (in Figure 4 (A), the 13:45 part is masked in this book). In this case, the secret time period can be masked. Although the schedule data cannot be seen, the connections between the schedule data can be grasped as a whole.

Also, the method of masking does not depend on the book, but any method that prevents the anonymous data from being visible may be used (
For example, a wide blank display, an error is SCRAMBL.
ED data display).

(c) Related to schedule data deletion In the above embodiment, schedule data is deleted for one month, but this is not limited to this. Schedule data for this specified period or all schedule data can be deleted in one operation. You may also delete the data (excluding saved data) with .

[Effects of the Invention] As explained in detail above, this invention specifies that the data to be saved is incurable at the time of registration. Since the specified data is saved without being deleted, the schedule clearing operation becomes easy and the most important data is automatically saved, making it safe.
