The present invention relates to a method for setting a call originating environment of a mobile communication terminal, and in particular, a call originating environment of a mobile communication terminal that enables a user to easily set a calling environment even when a telephone number is directly entered into a mobile communication terminal. It relates to a setting method.

The mobile communication terminal generally refers to a mobile phone, and a user can make and receive a call using the same. In particular, as the functions of the mobile communication terminal have been improved, the number of users making calls using various shortcut keys has increased more than when the user inputs a phone number directly to the mobile communication terminal.

For example, if you set your home phone number 02-123-4567 as a speed dial number '1', the user enters '02 -123-4567 'directly into the mobile terminal and presses the call button (send button). You can make a call, but by pressing the '1' button on the keypad for a long time (1 ~ 2 seconds), you can make a call to '02 -123-4567 'automatically.

In addition, since the recent call list is displayed when the call button of the mobile communication terminal is operated, the user can make a call by selecting one of the recent call lists without manipulating the speed dial number. And while checking the received message, if the message being checked includes a phone number, the phone number can be dialed by pressing the call button in that state.

However, when making a call by directly inputting the telephone number into the mobile communication terminal, the telephone call environment can be set immediately by operating the menu button after entering the telephone number, but otherwise, this is not the case.

For example, if you want to make a call so that the caller ID display is hidden, if you enter the phone number manually, operate the menu button (operate the menu button after directly entering the phone number to create the caller ID menu). You can set the calling environment so that is hidden. However, the call environment menu is not generated even when the menu button is operated while the recent call list is displayed. Therefore, the user cannot specify the call environment.

The present invention has been made to solve the above-mentioned problems of the prior art, the object of which is to set the calling environment by creating a call originating environment menu even when a user makes a call without directly entering a telephone number to the mobile communication terminal The present invention provides a method for setting a call origination environment of a mobile communication terminal.

According to a feature of a method for setting a call originating environment of a mobile communication terminal according to the present invention for solving the above problems, a first step of displaying a list including a phone number and a list of being displayed in the first step are displayed. A second step of displaying a calling environment menu for setting a calling environment when a call button is operated; selecting or canceling a call out environment related menu displayed in the second step; The third step is to make a call to the included telephone number.

Hereinafter, exemplary embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.

In the mobile communication terminal according to the present invention, as shown in FIG. 1, a screen in which a mobile communication terminal is providing a service is displayed, and various menu windows are displayed so that a user can select a command related to environment setting of the mobile communication terminal. The control unit 10 and the display unit 10 are configured to control the display and the microcomputer 30 to control the mobile communication terminal according to the command input through the key input unit 20.

At this time, the microcomputer 30 displays several menu windows on the display unit 10, and when a user inputs a specific menu selection command from the displayed menu windows through the key input unit 20, the mobile communication terminal accordingly. To be controlled.

Therefore, the microcomputer 30 always executes the display control application 31 and the key processing application 32 as the application of the highest layer, and the menu management application 33 or the signal transmitting / receiving application ( 34) and other applications such as the environment setting / cancellation application 35.

At this time, the microcomputer 30 is physically composed of various elements integrated on a printed circuit board, and an application executed in the microcomputer 30 may provide a function provided by the microcomputer 30 in software. It is only a simple classification. Therefore, the configuration change of the application does not affect the scope of the present invention.

In addition, the mobile communication terminal according to the present invention stores a communication module 40 for transmitting and receiving data with an external base station so that a user can make and receive phone calls, and source program codes such as various applications executed in the microcomputer 30. The memory 50 further includes a phone number input by a user, a transmission / reception text / voice message, and the like.

As the user selects a menu output to the display unit 10 through the key input unit 20, as shown in FIG. 2, a recent call list (a), a phone book (b), a speed dial list (c), Received message list (d) can be displayed. At this time, the menu management application 33 manages the structure of the menu displayed on the display unit 10 so that a corresponding lower menu can be selected when the user selects the upper menu.

The list shown in FIG. 2 is a list including all phone numbers. The user can select a list number including a phone number to make a call while the list is displayed and press a call button to set the calling environment. .

3 is a diagram illustrating a screen displayed on the display unit 10 when a call button is operated while a list (recent call list, phone book, speed dial list, and received message list) is displayed in FIG. 2. As shown in Figure 3 a), b), c), d) is displayed the call setting menu bar, the user can set the call environment by setting the call setting menu before making a call .

For example, if you move the cursor to the list number containing the phone number you want to make a call among several lists in the recent call list and then operate the call button, the calling environment setting menu is displayed on the display unit as shown in FIG. do. If the user selects '1. Calling number hidden' menu at this time, the calling number is hidden and possible to send.

On the other hand, the calling environment setting menu of the present embodiment, as shown, '1. Calling number hidden', '2. Message transmission', '3. Manual waiting (P)', '4. Time waiting (T)' , '5.Hyphen (-)', '6.Calendar Move' menu. At this time, the '2. message transmission menu' is a menu to enable the message transmission to the phone number included in the selected list number, '3. manual standby' and '4. time standby' menu when sending to the phone number, respectively It is a menu for setting manual standby or time zone. '5.Hyphen' menu is a menu to input hyphen to phone number. '6.Calendar move' recognizes phone number as a specific date of the calendar. This menu allows the schedule input.

In addition, the calling environment menu may be added / deleted as necessary.

When the user makes a call after selecting the '1. Calling number hidden' menu, the communication application 34 controls the communication module 40 to make a phone call with an external base station. Microcomputer should not display the calling number.

On the other hand, in the present embodiment, when the call button is operated while the list is displayed by default on the mobile communication terminal, the call environment menu is set to be generated on the display unit 10.

However, if necessary, the user may feel inconvenient to go through a separate calling environment setting step when operating the call button while the list is being displayed. Therefore, the call environment menu is set to be generated by the mobile communication terminal by default, but the user can set or release the call environment menu generation step as necessary, which is in charge of the environment setting / release application 35 of the microcomputer. .

If the calling environment menu generation step is released, the user can make an outside call by operating the call button only after moving the cursor to the list number to be called like the conventional mobile communication terminal.

As shown in the first step, the user selects a list such as a recent call list and displays the selected list as shown in a), b), c), and d) of FIG. 2 (S1).

Then, in the second step, the user moves the cursor to the list number corresponding to the telephone number to make a call by operating the up / down operation button or the key input unit installed on the side of the mobile communication terminal as necessary (S2). ). At this time, since the user does not necessarily need to move the cursor, the second step is shown by a dotted line.

Thereafter, in the third step, the mobile communication terminal checks whether the user has operated the call button (S3). If the user manipulates a button other than a call button, for example, a number corresponding to a list number, the detailed information of the list number (for example, recent call time, phone book details, speed dial number, and reception) is received in step 4. Message content) is displayed (S4).

Meanwhile, if the call button is operated in the third step, the mobile communication terminal checks whether the user sets or releases the call environment menu in the fifth step (S5). If the call environment menu generation is released, a call is made to the telephone number corresponding to the selected list number in step 6 (S6).

However, if the call environment menu generation is set as it is in step 7 the call environment menu is displayed as shown in Figure 3 (S7).

The user may select one of the menus displayed in the seventh step, in which case the selected menu is executed (S8). Of course, the user can make a call without canceling the menu selection and immediately changing the calling environment.
