The fifth figure is a schematic diagram of an example of working mode switching. The working mode 1 is set to the human interface switching device 5Q, and the multimedia unit 53 receives the application image signal 52a from the function application unit 52, and is stacked with the image signal 3Ga, and causes the input switching unit 51 to input. The input of unit 2〇 is sent to the system controller milk of function application unit 52 minus 2Ga. The function application unit 52 causes the image generation unit 532 of the multimedia unit 53 to generate a firefly_display ship material A display age _ 4g, such as computer A currency conversion system A2, measurement unit conversion A3, etc., when the human machine operates the interface milk The screen age control _5221 or the wheel unit 2Q county screen display function selection system controller 521 executes an application corresponding to the application function option. 200917093 A mouse 21 difficult 22 is connected to the system = 521 through the wheel altering unit 51, the _ mouse 21 button coordinate signal, which is decoded by the mouse decoder 5211 preset in the controller 521 and sent to the multi-body :兀53, the play center 211 corresponding to the movement of the mouse 21 is generated on the display unit 4G. When the user uses the cursor A1 to select the computer A1 of the screen display function menu A, the system controller 521 is composed of the core flash memory. The image and the text generated by the image are sent to the image generating unit 532 of the multi-cell unit to be displayed on the display unit 4(), and the virtual computer is used as the user's mouse. Click on the number ^ operator symbol on the virtual computer or the disk 22 to directly input the number and the operation symbol for calculation. When the function component 524 of the function application unit 52 includes the _ type flash memory, the instant controller circuit, and - or The plurality of environmental senses, so the human interface switching device 50 can provide functions such as the clock A4, the phone book A5, the notebook A6, and the environment sensing A7. To this end, the core flash memory 523 in the function unit 52 is simultaneously Store clock A4, phone book A5 An application such as Notepad and Environment Sensing A7 display, and the system controller 52i can access the application function related information of the function component 524. When the operation mode is - the system controller 521 is controlled according to the screen display of the human machine operation interface 522. The key 5221 and the input 3, 20a ' of the input unit 21, 22 cause the multimedia unit 53 to go to the flashing menu A. The screen function option a can be the clock A4, the telephone net A5 2 200917093, the book A6, And the environment sensing A7, such as temperature, humidity, etc. When the clock M is selected to generate an input signal to the system controller 521, the system controller 521 obtains time information from the instant controller circuit and sends it to the image generating unit 532' The display unit 4 generates a time display block to display the time. When the function application unit 52 displays the control key 5221 and the input unit 2 according to the screen of the man-machine operation interface 522, the phone in the screen display function menu A is selected. The recording poor material associated with the phonebook A5 in the thin A5'_D type flash memory is read by the system controller 521 and processed by the multimedia unit 53 and output to the display. The unit 40. Therefore, a phone book A5 is displayed on the display unit 40 for the user to check the previously recorded phone information, the option of the previous page, the next page or the user may also click the new option on the phone book. The new telephone information is input by using the keyboard 22, and the input signal of the keyboard 22 is decoded by the keyboard decoder 5212 built in the system controller 521, and then output to the image generating unit 532 and stored in the NAND flash memory. The user can return to the on-screen display function menu a to select other functions by simply turning off the option on the mouse 21 .::'. When the environmental sensing A7 in the screen display function menu A is selected, if the temperature generates a rounding signal to the system controller 521, the system controller 521 obtains the environmental sense corresponding to the environmental sensing A7 (eg, temperature sensing) The measured information (ie, temperature) transmitted by the device is transmitted to the multimedia unit 53, and the instantaneous temperature is displayed on the display unit 40. Similarly, the sensing function such as the ambient humidity 200917093 can also be implemented as described above. When the human-machine interface switching device 5 (not shown) is in the working mode 1, and the system controller 521 determines that the user moves the cursor 211 to the display unit (the area of the non-screen display function menu A) and clicks The system controller 521 determines that the user wants to send the input device 2 and the input signal 2〇a to the image signal source unit 3 while retaining the currently executed application function. Therefore, the function unit 52 outputs the image switching signal 52b and the wheel switching signal 52c, and switches the human interface switching device 5 to the operating mode 2, so that the input switching unit 111 transmits the input unit 21, 22 through the universal string. The column bus line! § '32 (not shown) is connected to the image signal unit 3〇, and the input signals of the input units 21 and 22 are sent to the image signal unit 30 through the USB hub 32. Since the image signal 3〇a and the image of the application image signal 52a are displayed in a stacked manner at the time, the user controls the image signal unit 3〇 by inputting an instruction through the input unit 21'22. Application functions that were originally turned on or in the working mode are still persistent and will not be turned off. When the human-machine interface switching device 50 is in the working mode 1, the user selects the mode switch Α8 of the screen display function menu 以 by the screen display control key 5221 or the input unit 21, 22, and the system controller 521 outputs the image switching signal 52b and The switching signal 52C is input, and the human interface switching device 5 switches the operating state of the operating mode 4 to 20 200917093. At this time, the multimedia unit 53 only accepts the image signal 30a from the image signal unit 30, and after processing, displays it in the display f unit 4G. And the input switching unit 51 inputs the input unit 2 of the input unit 2 into the image signal unit 3, so when the user operates the input unit 2, 22, although the input unit 2 is connected to the human machine interface Switching device 50 is 'but is to send the input signal to the image signal unit. Finally, when the human interface switching device 50 operates in the working mode 2 or the working mode 4, 'when the user wants to operate the option in the screen display function menu A again', the work mode switching button on the man-machine interface 522 is pressed.
