Abstract

An idle screen display device of a terminal, an operation method, and a recording medium are provided to enable a designated idle application to be automatically displayed on an idle screen when set time elapses, if an event application to be used one time is operated, thereby increasing reliability on terminal performance. A key button unit(10) inputs a time value as designating an idle application, and inputs a command signal for demanding event application operation. A controller(20) delivers the time value to an agent unit(70), controls activation of the agent unit and an application unit(40), and monitors overall operation. The agent unit activates/operates an idle screen agent by an activation request of the controller, and demands/confirms calculation of a time value set in a counter(80). The application unit activates an event application by an activation request of the controller to output the activated application on a display(60), or activates the idle application to output the application on the display.

The control unit 20 may provide a command signal for operating the idle screen service from the key button unit 10. Check whether it is input (S10).

When it is confirmed by the control unit 20 that the standby screen service is operated, the standby application to be set as the standby screen is designated and inputted, and the standby application is activated and enters a time value to wait until the standby screen is displayed. Since the input wait time value is recorded in the allocated area of the agent unit 70, it is set (S20).

When the wait time value is input in this way, the WIPI API can be used and a program such as OEMC_knlRegAlarmApp () is used.

The controller 20 checks whether the command signal to be operated is input from the key button unit 10 by designating an event application preferred or frequently used by the terminal user (S30).

When it is confirmed by the controller 20 that the selected specific event application is operated, the agent unit 70 is controlled to activate the idle screen agent task TASK, request to count the set time value, and the agent unit ( 70 requests to count the time value set in the counter 80 and starts counting (S40).

The controller 20 occupies the display unit 60 to operate in an active state, controls the application unit 40 to operate the selected event application, and outputs and displays the result information according to the operation on the display unit 60 ( S50).

When the agent unit 70 is informed of the completion of counting by the counting unit 80, the control unit 20 notifies the controller 20 of the result of counting completion, and thereby confirms it by the control unit 20 (S60).

The control unit 20 confirming that the count of the set time value is completed as described above controls the application unit 40 to request the operation of the designated standby application, and the application unit 40 activates the standby application designated by the request. And the information generated by the operation result is displayed on the display unit 60 (S70).

As described above, a program using the WIPI API for operating and displaying a standby application is as follows.

M_int32_OEMC_knlRegAlarmApp (M_Char * alarm, M_Char * prgName, M_int32 parmCnt, ...)

-M_Char * alarm: Alarm setting time

M_Char * prgName: Program name of the application

parmCnt: number of execution parameters

The method of operating the standby screen display device of the terminal is also provided as a recording medium in one embodiment.

Referring to FIG. 4, when a signal flow of an idle screen display device of a terminal according to an embodiment of the present invention is described, a process of designating a standby application by a controller and inputting and setting a time value; Activating an idle screen agent and activating and displaying an event application; Requesting and confirming a time value coefficient set by the agent unit; Outputting information of the standby application to the display unit by the control unit confirming the completion of the counting; It includes a configuration.

Referring to FIG. 4 in more detail, the control unit 20 of the terminal receives a command for specifying a standby application to display a standby screen from the key button unit 10 and a time value to wait until the standby screen is displayed. It receives the input (S100), transfers to the agent unit 70 so that it is recorded in the allocated area (S110).

If it is confirmed that a command signal for requesting operation by specifying an event application is input from the key button unit 10 monitored by the control unit 20 (S120), the agent unit 70 and the application unit 40 are received.

In one embodiment, the event application is very diverse, such as DMB, wireless Internet, online games, cameras, phonebooks, etc., and becomes one of additional services provided in the terminal.

The idle screen agent task operating in the active state in the agent unit 70 requests the counting of the time value set in the counting unit 80 (S160), and the counting unit 80 receiving such a request counts the set time value. Start (S170), and check whether the count of the set time value is completed (S180). When it is confirmed that the counting of the time value set by the counting unit 80 is completed, the agent unit 70 notifies the completion of counting (S190), and the agent unit 70 transmits the counting completion state to the control unit 20. Notify by state (S200).

That is, the operation of the designated event application is started, and the set predetermined time has passed.

The control unit 20 requests the operation of the standby application input and designated to the application unit 40 (S210), the application unit 40 operates the specified standby application in an activated state, and displays the screen by the operation unit on the display unit. Output to the standby screen and display (S220).

As an example, when an event application such as an electronic ticket (E-TICKET) is operated in a terminal, the electronic ticket does not need to be operated any more after a certain time is over.

That is, in the case of using an electronic ticket to watch a movie or a play, it is no longer necessary to operate the electronic ticket after the performance is over. In this case, the present invention, after the set waiting time, that is, the performance time In other words, it is displayed on the designated standby screen.

Accordingly, the method for operating the standby screen display device of the terminal is also provided as a recording medium according to one embodiment.

Although the present invention has been described in the embodiments as described above, the present invention is not necessarily limited to these embodiments, and various modifications can be made without departing from the spirit of the present invention. Therefore, the embodiments disclosed in the present invention are not intended to limit the technical idea of the present invention but to describe the present invention, and the scope of the technical idea of the present invention is not limited by these embodiments. The scope of protection of the present invention should be interpreted by the following claims, and all technical ideas within the scope equivalent thereto should be construed as being included in the scope of the present invention.

According to the present invention having the above-described configuration, when an event application to be used once is operated among various additional services provided in the terminal, the designated standby application is automatically displayed on the standby screen when a predetermined time elapses, and thus the performance of the terminal is increased. There is a convenient effect in use to increase the reliability.

In addition, when an event application of a specific value-added service that is not frequently used is executed, a standby application of a designated value-added service is automatically operated when an input and set time elapses, and thus has an industrial use effect of smoothly operating a terminal. .

In addition, in the case of selecting and operating one of various additional services provided in the terminal, when not using it for a long time by another task, the user's preference is enhanced by the convenience of displaying an application screen of a preferred or frequently used additional service. It has a convenient effect.
