Description

How to edit message on pager

The present invention relates to a message display method of a pager, and more particularly, to a message editing method in a pager for storing only necessary messages by deleting unnecessary data of the message.

1 shows a block configuration of a typical pager. Referring to FIG. 1, the controller 10 performs the overall operation of the pager and analyzes and processes the received data. The controller 10 may be implemented as a one chip microprocessor. The memory 20 stores operation programs and option data, and stores received messages. The display unit 30 may be embodied as a liquid crystal display (LCD) and displays various information such as a received message, an icon indicating a state of a pager, a time, and the like. The key input unit 40 includes a confirmation key 41 serving as a lead key for reading a stored message and a search key for searching a stored message, a mode key 43 for selecting a plurality of functions and modes, and a mode. And a selection key 45 for selecting a plurality of options. The receiver 50 receives radio call information and performs functions of frequency conversion, demodulation, and waveform shaping. Therefore, the output of the receiver 50 becomes radio call information converted from digital data. The decoder 70 receives, decodes, and outputs digital data, which is an output of the receiver 50. The decoder 70 detects a preamble signal and a word sink in the form of a post office code standard advisory group (POCSAG), detects a preamble, detects a word synchronous, and performs battery saving. (Saving) function.

Also, a method of displaying a message received by the wireless pager on the LCD will be described with reference to FIG. 2.

In general, the pager can display 12 digits of data on a liquid crystal display (LCD). And this is the capacity to display common phone numbers.

However, the caller adds unnecessary data to convey a specific meaning message to the callee. That is, as shown in Fig. 2, the caller adds data such as “8282”, which is a four-digit number that means to call the general telephone number " 03312801234 " To make a wireless call. This message exceeds the capacity of 12 digits that the pager can display on the liquid crystal display. Therefore, messages exceeding 12 digits are displayed over several screens for display on the liquid crystal display, and are stored in the memory 20. In addition, when the stored message (message exceeding 12 digits of data) is later checked, a message including unnecessary data is displayed.

As described above, when the received messages are displayed on various screens, there is a problem that it is difficult to grasp the necessary data of the received message, and there is a problem of wasting the capacity of the memory.

Accordingly, an object of the present invention is to provide a message editing method in a wireless pager that can efficiently use the capacity of the memory, delete unnecessary data of the received message, and easily store only necessary data when the message contents are easily identified when checking the message.

In order to achieve the object of the present invention, a confirmation key functions as a lead key for reading a stored message and a search key for searching a stored message, and a mode key for selecting a plurality of functions and modes, and a mode and a plurality of options. A method for editing a message in a wireless pager having a key input unit having a selection key, the method comprising: a first process of displaying a corresponding message to be edited by inputting the confirmation key of the key input unit; and after the first process, the key input unit A second process of blinking the termination data of the message when the selection key of the key is input for a predetermined time or more, and after the second process, which of the selection key input of the key input unit and a mode key input for a predetermined time or more is checked A third step of performing the data, and if the selection key is input in the third step, Blinks, deletes the flashing data when the mode key is input for a predetermined time, and flashes the data one digit before the deleted data; and a selection key and a mode key for a predetermined time or more in the fourth process. If there is no input, it is determined whether a mode key is input, and when the mode key is input, a fifth process of storing the message modified in the fourth process is performed.

Hereinafter, exemplary embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings. First, in adding reference numerals to the components of each drawing, it should be noted that the same reference numerals have the same reference numerals as much as possible even if displayed on different drawings. In the following description of the present invention, if it is determined that a detailed description of a related known function or configuration may unnecessarily obscure the subject matter of the present invention, the detailed description thereof will be omitted.

It should be noted that the configuration of the pager according to the present invention is the same as that of FIG. 1 and the reference numerals are also the same. In the configuration of the pager according to the present invention, the control unit 10 controls the overall operation for editing the stored message. The memory 20 stores a message editing program according to the present invention.

3 is a flowchart illustrating a message editing method in a pager according to an embodiment of the present invention.

Hereinafter, referring to FIG. 3, first, when the pager is powered on, the controller 10 sets the pager to the standby state and determines whether the lead key 41 is input from the key input unit 40 in step 301. In this case, when the lead key 41 is input from the key input unit 40, the controller 10 displays the initial message stored in the memory 20 on the display unit 30 in step 303. Then, the controller 10 Checks whether the search key 41 of the key input unit 40 is input in step 305. The search key 41 is the same key as the lead key 41. When the search key is input in step 305, 10 displays the next message on the display unit 30 in step 307, and returns to step 305 again to check whether the search key is input again. In step 1, the select key 45 of the key input unit 40 is pressed. Check whether the input key has been input for a predetermined time, and is to identify the function of the general selection key 45 and the function of the selection key 45 according to the present invention. If 45 is input for a predetermined time, the controller 10 proceeds to step 311, and if the selection key 45 is not input, the controller 10 repeats steps 305 and 309. The controller 10 proceeds to step 311. The terminal 10 of the selected message blinks, and after operation 311, the controller 10 checks whether the selection key 45 is input from the key input unit 40 in step 313. At this time, the key input unit 10 If the selection key 45 is inputted from the control unit 10, the control unit 10 proceeds to step 315 and blinks the data one digit before the data, but if there is no input of the selection key 45, the control unit 10 proceeds to step 317. It is checked whether the mode key 43 has been input. When the mode key 43 from the key input unit 40 is input for a predetermined time, the controller 10 deletes the data selected in step 319 and the previous data one digit flashing and performs the process from step 311 repeats. However, if there is no input for the predetermined time of the mode key 43 in step 317, the controller 10 proceeds to step 321 to check whether the mode key 45 is input from the key input unit 40. At this time, when the mode key 43 is input from the key input unit 40, the controller 10 stores the modified message in the memory and returns to the standby state.

FIG. 4 is a diagram illustrating a message editing process executed by the implementation of FIG. 3 and displayed on the liquid crystal display.

Hereinafter, a process of deleting and storing unnecessary data "8282" from among received messages "033128012348282" will be described with reference to FIG.

When the lead key 41 is input from the key input unit 40, the controller 10 displays an initial message on the display unit 30. At this time, if the selection key 45 is input from the key input unit 40 for a predetermined time or more, the controller 10 blinks the termination data of the message as shown in step a of FIG. At this time, when the mode key 43 is input from the key input unit 40 for a predetermined time or more, the data " 2 " flashing in the step a is deleted. Blinks "8". At this time, if the mode key 43 is input from the key input unit 40 for a predetermined time or more, the data “8” is deleted, and the data “2”, which is one digit earlier, blinks. After all unnecessary data "8282" is deleted through steps c and d of FIG. 4 in the above-described manner, when the mode key 43 is input from the key input unit 40, the controller 10 displays the modified message " 03312801234 "is stored in the memory 20, and the state is switched to the standby state.

As described above, the present invention has an advantage of easily storing the necessary data of the message, so that the user can easily check the received message when checking again later, and reduce the waste of memory.
