Description

METHOD AND VISUAL PRESENTATION DEVICE WITH ADJUSTMENT OF LEVEL FOR DISPLAY MENU ON SCREEN IN A IMAGE PRESENTATION DEVICE BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION FIELD OF THE INVENTION The present invention relates to an on-screen display (OSD) for an image display device, such as a TV, VCR, computer monitor, etc., and more particularly, to a method and display apparatus with improved level adjustment for an OSD menu in an image display device where various function control objectives of the display device are displayed on a screen in the form of various OSD menus and the the direction in which the plurality of various function control objectives is adjusted and the direction of movement of a level meter of the OSD menus corresponding respectively to the plurality of function control objectives correspond to each other so that the user can control with ease the objectives of function control.

DESCRIPTION OF THE PREVIOUS TECHNIQUE In an image display device, the general objectives of function control, such as volume, brightness, contrast, horizontal size, horizontal position, vertical size, vertical position, etc., which are included in the OSD menus, are They display on a screen, so a user can directly select and adjust an OSD menu item from the screen, while visually confirming the setting. Figure 1 is a schematic front view illustrating an installation of an OSD menu control button of a conventional image display device, and Figure 2 is a partially enlarged view detailing a control panel of Figure 1 As shown in Figure 1, the image display device includes a Braun 1 tube, a box 2 and a control panel 3 placed on the front of the box 2. The control panel 3 includes a level adjustment button. 4 to determine the level of the OSD menu on the screen, and a setting / complete button 7 to determine the OSD menu and finalize the menu setting. The level 4 adjustment button includes a level 5 increase button and a level 6 decrease button placed on each side thereof, which serve to increase or decrease the level of the menu.

In principle, by pressing the adjust / complete button 7, the OSD menu is displayed on the screen. Figures 3A to 3F respectively show OSD menus with respect to the function control objectives according to the conventional technique, wherein Figure 3A shows an OSD menu for contrast, Figure B illustrates an OSD menu for brightness, Figure 3C shows an OSD menu for horizontal size, Figure 3D illustrates an OSD menu for horizontal position, Figure 3E shows an OSD menu for vertical size, and Figure 3F shows an OSD menu for vertical position. A rectangular pattern on the central OSD screen represents a level meter and its internal area represents a normal area. A thick portion with color in the normal area represents a variable histogram that fluctuates horizontally from the extreme left point of the same to the right direction. A plurality of fixed indication elements appearing adjacent to the level meter represent the OSD menus for respective function objectives. A shaded element between the indication elements indicates that the OSD menu item is selected. When a user presses the level 5 increase button or the level 6 decrease button of the level 4 control button unit, the variable histogram fluctuates respectively from the left end point to the right side, so that the user can recognize the level adjustment with respect to the selected function control objective.

In accordance with the control of the plurality of function control objectives, the audio volume maximally increases to a minimum, the contrast on the screen becomes lighter or darker and the brightness on the screen is fired or darkened. Similarly, the volume, contrast and brightness have nothing to do with the variation of size and position with respect to the screen, so that the user can sufficiently recognize the respective settings through the variation in size of the screen. variable histogram of the level meter with respect to the corresponding function control objectives. However, to adjust the function control objectives, such as horizontal size, horizontal position, vertical size and vertical position, horizontally variable OSD level meter and level 5 and 6 increase and decrease buttons placed in horizontal position to control the function control objectives are not adequate. For example, to adjust the horizontal size, the variable histogram of the level meter moves towards one direction, ie, a single horizontal direction, thus indicating only horizontal fluctuation according to the variable diagram, while the actual horizontal size of the On-screen image increases or decreases towards the left and right sides, that is, in both horizontal directions.

Also, under adjusting the horizontal position of the image on the screen, that image is directed to move to the left side or to the right side. In the case of vertical size adjustment, the screen image is stretched or shrunk vertically and in the case of vertical position adjustment, the screen image moves up or down. Similarly, the actual function control objectives change horizontally from left to right or vertically from top to bottom, while the variable histogram of the level meter corresponding to the function control objectives only fluctuates horizontally, so the movement of the The variable histogram of the level meter does not match the direction of variation of the actual screen image. In addition, since the level 5 increase button and the level 6 decrease button are also placed horizontally, although buttons 5 and 6 correspond to the variable histogram of the level meter in position, buttons 5 and 6 do not correspond to the actual movement direction of the screen image. Therefore, when a user wishes to change the vertical size or position of the image on the screen, he must remember which of the two buttons 5 and 8 is for the upward adjustment or the downward adjustment. Consequently, since the function of the level meter according to the conventional technique is not designed based on human technology, it may be difficult for the user to recognize the actual variation on the screen by pressing the increase or decrease buttons 5 and 6, especially in an image display device where an OSD menu is not displayed on the screen. In other words, it can confuse the user instead of offering an advantage.

BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION The present invention is directed to overcome the disadvantages of the method and display apparatus with conventional level adjustment for an OSD menu in an image display device. Therefore, an object of the present invention is to provide a method and display apparatus with level adjustment for an OSD menu in an image display device in which the adjustment directions of the level adjustment buttons, the movement directions of an OSD menu level display pattern displayed on a screen and the actual movement directions (positions) of the function control objectives on the screen correspond to each other. In order to achieve this and other advantages and in accordance with the purpose of the present invention, as modalized and described in detail herein, a visual display apparatus is provided with level adjustment for an OSD menu on a display device for images that include: an input unit using keys that has a vertical adjustment button or a horizontal adjustment button to select and control the function control objectives; an OSD menu generation unit for displaying the level adjustment directions of the function control objectives in a vertical direction or a horizontal direction; and a control unit for controlling so as to adjust the disposed direction of the vertical adjustment button or the horizontal adjustment knob, the level adjustment display direction of the function control lenses and the vertical direction (position) or the horizontal direction (position), where the function control objectives actually fit on the screen, correspond to each other.

The control unit 12 includes a general MICOM, and the storage unit 15 includes an EEPROM (memory only read, programmable and electrically erasable). Figure 5 is a schematic front view illustrating an installation status of OSD menu adjustment buttons in the image display device in accordance with the present invention, and Figure 6 is a detailed view of a control panel of Figure 5. A box 20 of Figure 5 includes a control panel 21, and the control panel 21 includes a level adjustment button unit 22 for a user selects and adjusts a desired function among the various function control objectives of the image display device. The level adjusting button unit 22 is included in the input unit by keys 11. As shown in Figure 6, the level adjustment button unit 22 includes horizontal adjustment buttons 23 and 24 arranged in horizontal direction to determine the function control objectives in the horizontal direction; the vertical adjustment buttons 25 and 26 arranged in a vertical direction to determine the function control objectives in the vertical direction; and an adjustment / complete button 27 placed in the center of the horizontal and vertical adjustment buttons 23, 24, 25 and 26 to select and store the function control objectives. The input unit by keys 11 can be instrumented with a remote controller serving as the control panel unit 21 or having the function of the control panel unit 21, and in the case of the image signal output unit. 16 is instrumented by a personal computer, the input unit by keys 11 can be instrumented by a keyboard in use for the personal computer. The OSD menu generation unit 13 displays at least one of the respective menu indicators of the OSD menu, such as characters, numbers, diagrams and symbols on the OSD screen in an invariable pattern in accordance with the control signal and the control data, and outputs the OSD image signals Ro, Go and Bo to represent a control state on the OSD screen in a flashing display pattern or an enhanced display pattern when the control objective is being controlled of selected function. The OSD menu displayed on the screen through the image signals Ro, Go and Bo is designed when the OSD masks are manufactured, so they are displayed on the screen of a CRT. Next, the operation of the visual presentation apparatus with level adjustment constructed as described above will be explained.

The image signal output unit 16 outputs the image signals R, G and B to the preamplifier 17 and the horizontal and vertical synchronization signals H-Sync and V-Sync to the control unit 12. The amplifier 17 converts the image signals R, G and B to a predetermined level appropriately and outputs them to the image output unit 18. The converted image signals R, G and B are amplified by the output unit of image 18 and apply to CRT 19, so an image is displayed. This is a general procedure without the OSD menu displayed. Next, the operation of displaying the OSD menu on the screen will be described. When it is desired to control the function control objectives, a user presses the adjustment / complete button 27 of the level adjusting button unit 22 placed on the front of the box 20. Then, the input unit by means of keys 11 emits a command signal of an analog converter having a predetermined value to the analog / digital converter of the control unit 12. The control unit 12 converts the analog command signal to a digital signal and processes it to emit the control signal through of a SCL serial clock line and the control data through the SDA serial data line.

The control signal and the transmitted control data are input to the OSD 13 menu generation unit and to the digital / analog converter 14. The digital / analog converter 14 converts the horizontal and vertical synchronization signals H-Sync and V- Sync and the control signal and the control data to a similar signal, emits an analogous signal corresponding to the plurality of function control objectives, such as volume, brightness, contrast, H-size horizontal size, horizontal position position- H, vertical size V-size and vertical position V-position through a plurality of function control output terminals F1 ~ Fn, and adjust an oscillation frequency according to the horizontal and vertical synchronization signals H-Sync and V-Sync to output them through the OSD terminal. The OSD menu generation unit 13 receives the control signal and control data from the control unit 12 and outputs the OSD image signals Ro, Go and Bo. The OSD image signals Ro, Go and Bo are converted to predetermined levels by the preamplifier 17 and amplified by the image output unit 18 to be displayed on the CRT 19, so that the OSD menu corresponding to the OSD image signals Ro, Go and Bo are displayed on the CRT screen 19. The control unit 12 controls in a manner in which the control signal and the control data are stored in the storage unit 15, so that the control status of the OSD menu in previous use is kept continuously, and the control signal and control data are used when the corresponding OSD menu is readjusted later. Figures 7A to 7D are views illustrating respectively OSD menus that are displayed on the screen and correspond to a plurality of function control objectives in accordance with the present invention. Figure 7A shows the OSD menu displayed on the screen to adjust the horizontal and vertical sizes. As shown in the drawing, a level 28 deployment pattern unit is placed in the center of the screen, which has horizontal and vertical level display patterns with triangular shape 29-32, each of which displays adjustment states. of level of function control objectives. According to the state of level adjustment, each of the horizontal and vertical level display patterns 29-32 is highlighted or blinked. Triangular arrows are facing each other or one away from the other. That is, the triangular arrows are directed from the center outwards or directed from the outside to the center. The horizontal level display patterns 29 and 30 show variations of the horizontal direction of the function control objectives or degree variations of the function control objectives, while the vertical level display patterns of 31 and 32 show variations of the vertical direction of the function control objectives.

The deployment indicators around the level 28 deployment pattern unit represent function control objectives, where at least one of the following is displayed: characters, abstract characters, numbers, figures or signs in a fixed form. Among the fixed deployment indicators, a deployment indicator corresponds to a function control objective selected by the user is displayed by one of the following elements: different color, brightness, pattern, translucent shadow, to clearly distinguish each other. The fixed deployment indicator and level 29-32 deployment patterns can appear in the same color with each other, or in a different color to achieve clear distinction from each other. The color, brightness or pattern of the level 29-32 deployment patterns can be adjusted appropriately in consideration of the aesthetic sense of the user. When the OSD menu is displayed on the screen, the user selects the adjustment / full button 27 for a desired function control objective among the plurality of function control objectives while viewing the OSD menu when deploying and operating one of the control functions. the horizontal adjustment buttons 23 and 24 or the vertical adjustment buttons 25 and 26 to control the selected function control objective. According to said operation, the input unit by keys 11 emits a command signal having a predetermined value to the control unit 12; and in accordance with the control signal and the control data output from the control unit 12, the digital / analog converter 14 changes a level of one of the function control objectives and outputs it through a corresponding target between the plurality of function control output terminals. The OSD menu generation unit 13 outputs the OSD image signals Ro, Go and Bo according to the control signal and the control data. The OSD image signals Ro, Go and Bo are processed by the preamplifier 17 and the image output unit 18 to be displayed on the CRT 19, so that the horizontal level display patterns 29 and 30 are selected or the vertical level display patterns 31 and 32 that correspond to the selected function control objective. At that time, the selected deployment pattern is highlighted or flashes for predetermined intervals while the user is pressing the horizontal or vertical control buttons 23-26 of the level adjustment button unit 22. And, the direction of the pattern of Horizontal and vertical level display 29-32 corresponds to the direction in which the function control objective varies. Consequently, when the user operates the horizontal or vertical adjustment buttons 23-26, he may realize that he is actually adjusting the function control objective on the screen and that the horizontal or vertical level display patterns 29-32 they are highlighted or blinked, as well as the direction of horizontal and vertical level 29-32 display patterns, so that the user can adjust the function control objective exactly as desired while observing the degree of adjustment and / or the direction of adjustment of the function control lens. In that way, the user can adjust the levels of the OSD menus, and when the adjustment is determined to be complete, the user presses the set / complete button 27 and then the control unit 12 stores the control data for the function control objective, whose level adjustment is complete. Next, the procedure to adjust the horizontal size, the vertical size, the horizontal position, the vertical position and the level will be described. First, the procedure for adjusting the horizontal size and vertical size will be described below with reference to Figure 7A. In a state in which the OSD menu is displayed on the CRT screen 17, the user operates the horizontal adjustment buttons 23 and 24 to select through them a function control objective that corresponds to the horizontal and vertical size.

Then, when the user presses the horizontal adjustment buttons 23 and 24 the horizontal size of the screen is adjusted, while the horizontal level display patterns 29 and 30 are highlighted or blinked.

In case of increasing the horizontal size, the arrows with triangular shape, that is to say, the deployment patterns of horizontal level 29 and 30, are far apart from each other, while in case of decreasing the horizontal size of the screen (although not shown in Figure 7A), the arrows with triangular shape, ie, the horizontal level deployment patterns 29 and 30, lie opposite each other. Meanwhile, when the user presses the vertical adjustment buttons 25 and 26, the vertical size of the screen is adjusted, while the vertical level display patterns 31 and 32 are highlighted or blinked. In case of increasing the vertical size, the arrows with triangular shape, that is, vertical level deployment patterns 31 and 32, are far apart from one another, while in case of decreasing the vertical size of the screen (although not shown in Figure 7A), the arrows with triangular shape, that is, vertical level deployment patterns 31 and 32, face each other. That way the horizontal size or the vertical size of the screen is adjusted according to the user's operation, and while the horizontal level display patterns 29 and 30 or vertical level display patterns 31 and 32 are enhanced or blinking, the direction of the horizontal level display patterns 29 and 30 or the vertical level display pattern 31 and 32 change, so that the user easily recognizes how the desired function control objectives are set.

The procedure for adjusting the horizontal position will now be described with reference in Figure 7B which illustrates the OSD menu displayed to adjust the horizontal position, where the horizontal level display patterns 29 and 30 are displayed and the level deployment patterns vertical 31 and 32 do not unfold. In a state in which the OSD menu is displayed on the CRT display 17, the user operates the horizontal adjustment buttons 23 and 24 to select a function control target corresponding to the horizontal position. Next, when the user presses the horizontal adjustment buttons 23 and 24, the horizontal position of the screen moves to the left or to the right, while the horizontal level display patterns 29 and 30 are highlighted or blinked. In case the horizontal position of the screen moves to the left, the horizontal level display pattern 29 is highlighted or blinked, while in case the horizontal position of the screen moves to the right, the horizontal horizontal level display 30 is highlighted or flashes. The procedure for adjusting the vertical position will now be described with reference in Figure 7C which illustrates the OSD menu displayed to adjust the vertical position, where the vertical level display patterns 31 and 32 are displayed and the level deployment patterns horizontal 29 and 30 do not unfold.

In a state in which the OSD menu is displayed on the CRT display 17, the user operates the vertical adjustment buttons 25 and 26 to select a function control target corresponding to the horizontal position. Next, when the user presses the vertical adjustment buttons 25 and 26, the vertical position of the screen moves up or down, while the vertical level display patterns 31 and 32 are highlighted or blinked. In case the vertical position of the screen moves upwards, the vertical level display pattern 31 is highlighted or blinked, while in case the vertical position of the screen moves downwards, the display pattern of vertical level 32 is highlighted or flashes. Next, the method for adjusting the level of the function control objectives, such as brightness and contrast between the plurality of function control objectives with reference in Figure 7D illustrating the OSD menu displayed to adjust the level, will be described below. of brightness, where the horizontal level display patterns 29 and 30 are displayed and the vertical level display patterns 31 and 32 are not displayed. In a state in which the OSD menu is displayed on the CRT display 17, the user operates the vertical adjustment buttons 25 and 26 to select a function control target corresponding to the brightness.

Subsequently, when the user presses the horizontal adjustment buttons 23 and 24 the screen is illuminated or darkened, while the horizontal level display patterns 29 and 30 are highlighted or blinked. In case the screen darkens, the horizontal level display pattern 29 is highlighted or blinked, while in case the screen is illuminated, the horizontal level display pattern 30 is highlighted or blinked. In this way, in case the level of the screen is adjusted, the horizontal level display pattern 30 is highlighted or blinking when the level is increased, while the horizontal level display pattern 29 is highlighted or blinked when the level decreases. As described thus far, in the display apparatus with level adjustment for screen display menu in the image display device in accordance with the present invention, the operation direction in which the plurality of adjustment buttons level, the direction in which the level display patterns appear and the direction in which the actual screen varies correspond to each other, so that the user can adjust the level of the function control objectives easily and in a convenient while watching the OSD menu, in view of human technology. Since the present invention can be modalized in various ways without departing from the spirit or essential characteristics thereof, it should also be understood that the modalities described above are not limited by any of the details of the foregoing description, unless otherwise specified. , if not that it should be broadly construed within its spirit and scope, as defined in the appended claims and, therefore, all changes and modifications that fall within the limits of the claims, or the equivalence of such limits, have the purpose of being covered by the appended claims.
