Description

How to initialize settings of VSI system

The present invention relates to a method for initializing the setting contents of a VSI system, and more particularly, to a method for initializing setting contents that can be easily achieved when changing all or registered items of contents set by OSD's screen dialog function setting. .

In VSI system, the user performs various setting operations such as time setting, scheduled recording setting, language type setting, baroque (K) setting, and channel memory through the screen interactively through the OSD. Conventional VSI system having the same as shown in FIG.

Here, the tuner 24 of the channel selecting unit 23, which receives a regular broadcast signal from an antenna of the VSI system and performs channel tuning, and the tuner signal provided from the tuner 24 are phase locked loops (PLL). The phase lock loop circuit 25 of the channel selection unit 23 to control the microcomputer 22, the microcomputer 22 to control the VSI system, the OSD unit 31 to generate the OSD screen, and the like are included.

In addition, the system includes a channel memory 32 using EPI, a key matrix (key input unit) 21 for various key operations together with a remote control transmitter, a deck 26 for recording / playback deck operation, and an RF converter ( 28), the video block processing video block 29, the TV receiver 30, and the like.

In such a conventional system, when the function key is pressed through the key matrix 21, the microcomputer 22 recognizes this and retrieves the predesigned OSD data from the internal memory and provides the OSD31 to the OSD31. 31 converts the OSD data into an RF signal and provides the TV receiver 30.

Thereafter, the TV receiver 30 displays a screen-interactive menu screen for function setting.

As described above, various function setting operations are performed using the screen interactive OSD, and an example of the OSD program for setting the reserved recording is shown as follows.

Here, pressing the menu button from the system's remote control transmitter, etc.

If you press 2 on the screen shown in Table 2 will appear.

Scheduled Recording / Cancel Channel Month / Day Start Time End Time1.2.3..N.1 to N Selection> Next Screen Function Selection End

If you press the recording setup number 1 above, the screen shown in Table 3 appears.

Subsequently, when the user sequentially sets contents such as channel / start time / end time / recording speed / daily, weekly and monthly through the screens of Tables 3 to 5, the reserved recording of a specific program through OSD is performed. Complete the setup.

Scheduled Recording / Cancel 1 Channel:--Recording Speed: Standard Date--/--Start Time: AM--:--End Time: AM--:--02∼69 Channel Function Selection End

Scheduled Recording / Cancel 1 Channel: 0 7 Recording Speed: Standard Date--/--Start Time: AM--:--End Time: AM--:--01 ~ 12 Start Month 99 Daily 88 Weekly Function End End / > Modified

Scheduled Recording / Cancel 1 Channel: 0 7 Recording Speed: Standard Date 6/5 Start Time: AM--:--End Time: AM--:--1/2 AM / PM 〈/〉 Editing Function End

In the OS system as described above, if the user registers a predetermined number of reserved recording programs in the order shown in Tables 1 to 5, the microcomputer 22 executes the reserved recording of the specific program registered at the corresponding time. In order to delete (initialize or reset) or change the contents registered in the above setting, the menu screens of Tables 1 to 5 are called out in order to delete or change the contents.

In addition, in the case of channel memory, if you press 3 in Table 1, the screen shown in Table 6 will appear.

Channel Custom Antenna Input: General Broadcasting1. General broadcasting → Cable broadcasting 2. Auto Channel Fit 3. Manual channel 1 to 3 selection function selection end

When the automatic selection is pressed, the channel number is continuously changed from 02 to 69 (or 83), and only the channel having the broadcast is automatically stored. When the storage is completed, the lower numbered channel is selected among the stored channels.

As described above, various contents used in the VSI system or the like have been set and used in the system memory. However, when the contents registered in the setting are not necessary, the contents of the items / corresponding numbers are searched by the multi-step operation as described above. After pressing the (Reset) button, the contents were deleted.

Therefore, the user was inconvenient to use such a device because it was cumbersome to delete the contents registered by the user.

Especially, in case of foreign export set such as Europe, 3 ~ 7 languages are designed to be used by the system. In this case, if the user makes a wrong selection in the screen interactive language setting mode, the remote control transmitter selects them. Because the OS menu screen could not be recognized, it caused a troublesome problem of performing the setting work after initializing the entire system.

An object of the present invention was devised to improve the conventional problems as described above, which is a batch of all items or the corresponding items when initializing (clearing) the contents registered by the screen interactive OS program in a VSI system or the like. By making it possible to erase in an erase manner, the ease of such an erase operation can be realized.

In order to achieve the above object, the present invention provides a method of calling a system interactive OS main menu screen by a function key input, and determining whether a reset item installed as an item on the main menu screen is selected and reset. When the item is selected, displaying the reset type screen for selecting all resets and item resets, and if the user selects all resets and selects the OK button, resets the contents set for all items and selects the item resets after selecting the OK button. If the button is selected, performing a reset on the set contents of the selected item.

Hereinafter, the present invention will be described with reference to the accompanying drawings.

2 shows a system circuit block associated with the present invention.

In this case, the input port of the system microcomputer 12 is connected to the key input unit 11 and the power supply unit 14 to provide a control command to the microcomputer 12, and the output port of the microcomputer 11, the screen interactive OSD signal The ODS part 13 which generate | occur | produces is connected.

The microcomputer 12 is provided with an EPROM 15 that can register or delete various setting contents according to user settings.

On the other hand, the system is provided with a setting content initialization control program 100 as shown in FIG.

In this case, the system microcomputer checks whether there is a function key input, and if there is a function key input, calls up the interactive OSD main menu screen (steps 101 and 102), and the user selects a reset item installed as an item on the main menu screen. And determining if the reset item is selected and displaying a reset type screen for selecting all resets and item resets (steps 103 and 104).

In the above, the user checks whether the user selects all resets among all resets and item resets on the reset type screen, and if the user selects all resets, checks whether the OK button is selected. Steps (steps 105, 106 and 107) are included.

In the above, the step of checking whether there is an item reset selection instead of selecting all reset items, checking whether there is an OK button selection when there is an item reset selection, and executing a reset on the set contents of the selected item when there is an OK button selection (step) 108 to 112).

According to the present invention having the above configuration, when the user performs reservation recording using the screen interactive OSD menu screen, a control command for calling the function menu screen to the microcomputer 12 through the key input unit 11 as shown in FIG. to provide.

The microcomputer 12 displays the main menu screen as shown in Table 1 through the OS 13 according to a control command through the key input unit 11 of the user.

Thereafter, if the user sets a scheduled recording for a specific program through the operations shown in Tables 2 to 5, the set contents are registered in the corresponding table of the YPROM 15.

In addition, in the case of channel memory, as shown in Table 6, when the channel auto-memory command is given, the microcomputer 12 finds the channel signal currently received along with the tuner and the IF part, and generates channel data corresponding thereto, and then the YPIROM 15 ) To the relevant table.

In addition, the setting contents for the various items shown in Table 1 are registered in YPIROM 15, and the system and the user use the registered contents or perform a timer operation of the registered contents.

However, in the case of the reservation recording setting, the registered contents are unnecessary, and therefore, it is necessary to delete specific contents artificially.

For example, when a specific program already registered fails to reserve a reservation and remains there, or when a user wants to change a specific program registered by the user to another content, the user proceeds as shown in Tables 1 to 5 above. The work must be done to delete the specific program.

Therefore, this erase operation was quite inconvenient and cumbersome.

In the present invention, when the user performs the reservation recording setting using the screen interactive OSD menu screen, when calling the function menu screen to the microcomputer 12 through the key input unit 11 as shown in FIG. The screen is displayed.

If you press 0, the screen shown in Table 8 will appear.

Reset all1. Example 2. No 1/2 selection reset; OK button

When 1 is pressed in Table 8 and the OK button is selected, the microcomputer 12 resets the reset unit as shown in Fig. 2 (all contents set in each item of Table 1 are deleted. Return to

When the user presses the corresponding item number and presses the OK button again, all the contents set in the selected item are initialized.

For example, when 2 and OK button are pressed in Table 7, all program contents set in the reserved recording are deleted, and when the 3 and OK button are pressed, all channel data stored in EPI 15 is initialized.

On the other hand, the above operation is performed by the microcomputer 12 with the setting content initialization control program 100 as shown in Figure 3, the system microcomputer checks whether there is a function key input, if there is a function key input as shown in Table 7 Calls up the interactive OSD main menu screen (steps 101 and 102).

Thereafter, when the user selects the reset item installed as an item on the main menu screen, the microcomputer 12 determines this and displays the reset type screen shown in Table 8 (steps 103 and 104).

When the user selects all resets corresponding to No. 1 on the reset type screen of the table 8 and presses the OK button, the microcomputer 12 resets all contents stored in the EPIROM 15 (steps 105, 106 and 107).

In the above, if there is not selection of all reset item by 1 and there is selection of 2 (item reset) and OK button, it returns to table 7 and if user presses the corresponding item number again and presses OK button again, it is set in the selected item. One content is initialized (steps 108 to 112).

Therefore, when the user performs a menu operation in the initially registered language and selects a different language in the language selection mode, the user can easily return to the initial state through the on-screen menu screen when the user cannot exit the menu state. .

In the present invention, the user needs to set the contents such as time setting, schedule recording setting, language type setting, baroque setting (K) setting, and channel memory, which are set by the user using the screen interactive OS screen in the VSI system. As a result, it can be easily initialized by all or items, which has a unique effect that can facilitate the use of such a set.
