1 is a block diagram of a wireless call receiver to which the present invention is applied.

Hereinafter, referring to FIG. 1, the controller 50 controls storing and erasing of a message, displaying a message, and generating an alarm. The controller 50 sets a ROM for storing a predetermined operating program, a RAM for temporarily storing data generated while the operating program is executed, and a timer 52 for setting and counting various times of the wireless call receiver. It is implemented as a one chip microprocessor (Including One Chip Microprocessor). The memory 60 is a read / write memory such as EEPROM, and stores a plurality of parameters and received messages. It is turned on at a predetermined cycle and receives a radio signal received through the antenna ANT, converts it into a signal of intermediate frequency, and outputs it. The decoder 20 receives and decodes the signal of the intermediate frequency and operates in conjunction with the controller 50. The decoder 20 detects a preamble detection, a word sync detection, an address detection, and a message from the decoded signal. The decoder 20 determines whether the detected address is a magnetic address, and then detects the detected message if the signal is a magnetic address. It applies to the control part 50. In addition, the decoder 20 controls a battery saving operation, and periodically outputs a turn-on signal to the receiver 10. The switch unit 30 receives the turn-on signal of the receiver 10 from the decoder 20 and provides power to the receiver 10 by being turned on. The alarm unit 80 generates alarm sounds and vibrations under the control of the controller 50 when receiving a message. The key input unit 70 typically includes a lead key for checking a received message, a mode key for setting a plurality of modes, and a selection key for converting and selecting variable values. The display unit 90 is controlled by the control unit 50, displays a message input from the decoder 20, and displays an operation state of the wireless call receiver and whether a message is received by icons and text.

2 is a flowchart illustrating a method of displaying a fixed screen in a portable communication device according to a first embodiment of the present invention. In describing this, the hardware configuration will be described taking the configuration of the wireless call receiver as an example. However, this is not only limited to the wireless call receiver, but also applies to a portable communication device having a display unit such as a liquid crystal display device.

First, in step 201, the decoder 20 periodically turns on the receiver 10, and the receiver 10 converts the radio signal received through the antenna ANT into an intermediate frequency signal and outputs the intermediate frequency signal. It receives the input and decodes it into the original digital signal. The decoder 20 detects a magnetic address from the decoded digital signal and determines whether it is a signal having its own address. At this time, when a signal having its own address is input, the decoder 20 detects a message from the digital signal and outputs the message to the controller 50. In step 203, the controller 50 receives the message output from the decoder 20, displays the message on the display unit 90, and proceeds to step 205 to operate the timer 52 to count the time. When the timer 52 starts to count in step 205, the controller 50 proceeds to step 207 and the count time is compared with the first counting time preset in the memory 60. 1 Check if the setting time is exceeded. If the count time exceeds the first set time in the test, the controller 50 deletes the message displayed on the display unit 90 and switches to the initial screen.

However, if the count time does not exceed the first set time, the controller 50 periodically scans the key input unit 70 to check whether a predetermined key is input. In this case, if a predetermined key is not input from the key input unit 70, the process proceeds to step 203 to repeat the process after step 209. However, if a predetermined key is input during the key input test, the controller 50 proceeds to step 211 to reset the counted time and count the timer 52 again. When the timer 52 is counted again, the controller 50 proceeds to step 213 to compare the time being counted again with the second preset time set in the memory 60 and the count time is set as the second setting. Check if the time is exceeded. If the count time exceeds the second set time, the controller 50 proceeds to step 221 to initialize the screen.

On the other hand, while the count time does not exceed the second set time, the key input unit 70 is periodically scanned to check whether a predetermined key is input. In this case, when a predetermined key is input from the key input unit 70, the controller 50 resets the timer 52 in step 216, and proceeds to step 217 to continuously display the message displayed on the display unit 90.

In order to release the fixed display of the message, the user must input a predetermined key of the key input unit 70, and the control unit 50 detects this and proceeds to step 221 to delete the displayed message from the display unit 90, and to display the initial screen. Switch to

For example, when a mesh is received and displayed on the display unit 90, the user may input a certain key of the key input unit 70 twice within a predetermined time period to fix and display the displayed message. In this state, any key of the key input unit 70 may be input again to switch to the initial screen.

3 is a flowchart illustrating a display method of fixing a message displayed on the display unit 90 when a message is received by pressing a predetermined key of the key input unit 70 for a predetermined time.

The decoder 20 periodically turns on the receiver 10 in step 301, and receives the intermediate frequency signal output by converting the radio signal received by the receiver 10 through the antenna ANT into an intermediate frequency signal. Decode to the original digital signal. The decoder 20 detects a magnetic address from the decoded digital signal and determines whether it is a signal having its own address. At this time, when a signal having its own address is input, the decoder 20 detects a message from the digital signal and outputs the message to the controller 50. In step 303, the controller 50 receives the message output from the decoder 20, displays the message on the display unit 90, and proceeds to step 305 to operate the timer 52 to count the time. When the timer 52 starts to be counted in step 305, the controller 50 proceeds to step 307 in which the count time is compared with the first counting time preset in the memory 60. 1 Check if the setting time is exceeded. If the count time exceeds the first set time in the test, the controller 50 deletes the message displayed on the display unit 90 and switches to the initial screen.

However, if the count time does not exceed the first set time, the controller 50 proceeds to step 309 and periodically scans the key input unit 70 to check whether a predetermined key is pressed. If a predetermined key is not input as a result of the key scan, the controller 50 proceeds to step 303 and repeats the subsequent process. However, if a predetermined key is pressed in step 309, the controller 50 proceeds to step 311 to reset the timer 52 and starts counting again from the beginning. If the timer is counted again, the controller 50 proceeds to step 313 to scan the key input unit 70 again and checks whether the pressed key is released (released). If the key press is not released in the key press release check, the timer 52 continues to count. When the key press is released, the count of the timer 52 is stopped, and the count time is stored in the RAM. In operation 315, the controller 50 compares the count time stored in the RAM with the second preset time stored in the memory 60 to check whether the count time is greater than or equal to the second preset time. If the count time, that is, the key press time is less than the second set time, the process proceeds to step 303 to repeat the subsequent process, and if it is abnormal, proceeds to step 317 to fix the message on the screen.

The step 321 of releasing the message on the fixed screen is the same as step 221 of FIG. 2.

The radio call receiver stores the message in the memory 60 when it is received. The memory 60 stores consecutively entered messages on the stack of the memory 60, and the stack pointer always addresses the last received and stored message. When the user inputs a read key, the controller 50 reads and displays the last stored message indicated by the stack pointer, that is, the message in which the most recent message is stored.

FIG. 4 is a flowchart illustrating a method for displaying a message on a screen according to a third embodiment of the present invention, and illustrates a method of reading and fixing a message stored in a memory.

Referring to FIG. 4, the controller 50 periodically scans the key input unit 70 to check whether a lead key is input in step 401. In this case, when the lead key is input from the key input unit 70, the controller 50 calculates an address (hereinafter referred to as "MR") in which the latest message is stored in step 403. The MR is calculated by subtracting the stack pointer value N from the address indicated by the stack pointer (meaning N in FIG. 4). The initial stack pointer value N is "0". When the address of the latest message is calculated in step 403, the controller 50 reads the MR message calculated in step 405 and displays the message on the display unit 90. The controller 50 then proceeds to step 407 to operate the timer 52 to count the time. When the timer 52 operates, the controller 50 determines whether the count time is greater than or equal to the first preset time preset in the memory 60 in step 409. If the count time is greater than or equal to the first predetermined time, the controller 50 proceeds to step 423 to delete the displayed message and to switch to the initial screen. However, if the count time does not exceed the first set time, the controller 50 proceeds to step 411 to scan the key input unit 70 to check whether the lead key is pressed. In this case, when the lead key is pressed, the controller 50 proceeds to step 413. If the lead key is not input within the first set time, the control unit 50 displays the message for the first set time and then proceeds to step 423 to initialize the screen. do.

The controller 50 proceeds to step 413 and resets the timer 52 to count again in the initialized state. When the timer 52 is counted, the controller 50 proceeds to step 415 to check whether the lead key is released. At this time, when the lead key is released, the controller 50 stops the operation of the timer 52, stores the time counted by the timer 52 in the RAM, and then stores the count time stored in the RAM and the memory 60. It compares with the 2nd preset time preset. As a result of the comparison, if the count time is greater than or equal to the second set time, the controller 50 fixes the message displayed on the screen in step 419, and if it is below, the control unit 50 proceeds to step 418 to decrease the stack pointer N by one, In step 405, the second, most recently received message is displayed on the display unit 90.

Then, the controller 50 proceeds to step 421 to check whether an arbitrary key is input from the key input unit 70. This is checked to delete the fixedly displayed message, i.e. to initialize the screen. If a key is input in step 421, the controller 50 proceeds to step 423 to initialize and terminate the screen.

5 is a flowchart illustrating a method of displaying and fixing a message according to a fourth embodiment of the present invention. In FIG. 5, operations 509 through 501 and operations 401 through 409 in FIG. 4 are the same, and description thereof is omitted.

If the count time exceeds the first set time in the comparison between the count time of step 509 and the preset first set time of FIG. 5, the controller 50 proceeds to step 253 to initialize the screen. However, if the count time does not exceed the first set time, the controller 50 proceeds to step 511 and checks whether a lead key is input from the key input unit 70. In this case, when the lead key is input, the controller 50 resets the count time counted in step 507 and counts again in step 513. In operation 515, the controller 50 compares the re-counted time with a second preset time set in the memory 60 to check whether the count time exceeds the second preset time. If the count time does not exceed the second set time, the controller 50 proceeds to step 517 to check whether a lead key is input from the key input unit 70. At this time, when the lead key is input, the controller 50 freezes the screen and continuously displays the displayed message.

However, if the count time exceeds the second set time in step 515, the controller 50 proceeds to step 512 to decrease the stack pointer value by 1 and proceeds to step 503 to calculate the address of the next MR, and from the calculated address to the MR. The message is read and displayed on the display unit 90.

If the message is fixedly displayed in step 519, the controller 50 proceeds to step 521 to check whether an arbitrary key is input from the key input unit 70. If any key is input from the key input unit 70, the controller 50 proceeds to step 523 to initialize the screen.

When the stored message is read out and displayed, FIG. 4 illustrates a method of fixing a screen by pressing a lead key for a predetermined time, and FIG. 5 illustrates a method of fixing a screen by repeatedly inputting a lead key twice in a predetermined time. It is appearing.

As described above, in the present invention, when a user wants to check a received message, the user can fix the message and check the message by only displaying one message.
