Abstract

텔레비젼 시스템에서 보다 쉽게 채널을 선택할 수 있도록 본 발명은 채널번호에 해당하는 키입력신호가 일정시간(대략 2초간) 지속되면 원하는 채널의 마지막 번호가 입력된 경우로 인식하고, 앞서 입력된 번호를 포함한 번호로 채널을 선택하여 해당하는 방송신호를 선국한다.In order to more easily select a channel in the television system, when the key input signal corresponding to the channel number continues for a predetermined time (approximately 2 seconds), it is recognized that the last number of the desired channel is input. Selects a channel by the number, and tunes the corresponding broadcast signal.

Claims

A method of selecting a channel, the method comprising: a first step of sequentially inputting a channel selection signal and a desired channel number; A second step of checking whether a key input signal corresponding to a new channel number is applied on the channel selection inputting the channel selection signal of the first step; A third step of counting an input time of a key input signal corresponding to the channel number when a key input signal corresponding to a new channel number is applied in the second step; A fourth step of comparing the time counted in the third step with a preset time and recognizing the current channel number as the last channel number when the counted time reaches a predetermined time; And a fifth step of selecting a channel number including the channel number input on the channel selection and a channel number lasting the channel number recognized in the fourth step as a selected channel.

2. The method of claim 1, wherein the third step initializes the counted time to "0 " whenever a key input signal corresponding to a new channel number is applied in the second step.

3. The method of claim 2, wherein the predetermined time in the fourth step is "2" seconds.

A channel selection apparatus of a television system, comprising: a key input unit for sequentially inputting a channel selection signal and a desired channel number; A channel selection routine is performed according to the channel selection signal of the key input unit, and when a key input signal corresponding to a new channel number is applied from the key input unit in the channel selection routine, the input time and the preset length are compared, A microcomputer for selecting a channel with the last number; A time counter for counting the input time of the key input signal corresponding to the new channel number and notifying the current time to the current time; And a tuner for tuning a broadcast signal of a channel selected by the microcomputer.
