FIG. 1 is a system architecture diagram of a preferred embodiment of a marquee display configuration system for an electronic signage of the present invention. The system includes a plurality of client computers 10 and a server 20. The client computer 10 is connected to the server 20 via the network 1.

The client computer 10 can be an IBM-based personal computer (PC), a notebook computer, or an Apple-based MAC PC. A plurality of or a single client computer 20 may form a plurality of groups, such as groups a, b, and c shown in FIG. 1, and each client computer 10 may be connected to a plurality of display devices, such as an electronic bulletin board or a display. A marquee file for playing an electronic signage.

Network 1 can be an intranet or an Internet or other type of communication network.

The server 20 can be a different type of server that can install and run software and can store different types of files. In the preferred embodiment, the server 20 stores the running of the electronic signboard required by the client computer 10. The scanner 20 includes a writing module 200, a search module 201, and a configuration module 202.

The module 200 is programmed to write a marquee file to be published at the server 20. Since the marquee file is a plain text file, the content is generally published information such as announcements, notices, news, etc. When the marquee file needs to be published, the marquee file needs to be first written, and the writing module 200 can be provided to the user for writing. The initial marquee file can create a new marquee file and edit and modify its contents. The module 200 writes the attributes of the marquee file (text font, text size, text color, text background color and moving speed). Define an initial value (data type), generally you can define all the initial values of the newly created marquee file attributes to 0.

The search module 201 is configured to search the server 20 for the content of the marquee file that is written by the writing module 200 and needs to be configured. For example, when a company A needs to publish multiple different notices to different departments of the subordinate through the bulletin board, the manager of the company A can write all the contents of the notice and save it in the servo by writing the module 200. 20. When you need to perform some configuration on all the prepared announcements, such as the need to change the text font, text color, text size, etc. of the advertisement, the requirements for different notifications are not necessarily the same. Therefore, the search module 201 searches for The keyword of the prepared announcement is found to find the marquee file that needs to be configured currently.

The configuration module 202 is configured to perform different configurations on the searched marquee files, and distribute the configured marquee files to groups of different client computers 10 for playing. The configuration module 202 includes: a font and size configuration sub-module 2021, a content color configuration sub-module 2022, a background color configuration sub-module 2023, and a moving speed configuration sub-module 2024. The sub-module is specifically as shown in FIG. Show. After the text font, the size, the text color, the background color of the text, and the moving speed of the marquee file are configured, the configuration module 202 then distributes the configured marquee files to different client computers 10. The method of publishing may be to first define different values for all the client computers 10, then define different values for different groups, and then publish them by selecting values. For example, suppose that there are a total of 10 user computers 10 in FIG. 1 , and the values 1-10 are respectively defined to correspond to 10 client computers 10, and then according to their groups, for example, the value of the user terminals of 1-3. The brain 10 defines a group value a, the client computer 10 of value 4 defines a group value b, and the client computer 10 of values 5-10 defines a group value c. After defining the values of the individual client computers 10 and the values of the groups, the configured values can be flexibly selected to distribute the configured marquee files to a single client computer 10 or a group computer.

As shown in FIG. 2, it is a functional sub-module diagram of the configuration module shown in FIG. 1 of the present invention. The font and size configuration sub-module 2021 is configured to configure the font font and the text size of the marquee file. For example, the font that defines the marquee file is black, new, or other fonts; the text size is defined as the number 10, 12, or other size of the corresponding font. Defining the corresponding text font and text size can be defined by the corresponding value, for example, defining the font values 0, 1, 2, and 3 respectively corresponding to the new compact body, the standard body, the bold body, the compact body, and defining the size value of 100, 200, 300, 400, 500, and 600 correspond to words No. 10, No. 12, No. 14, No. 16, No. 18, and No. 20. When you need to change the text font and text size, you only need to select the corresponding value, and then replace the selected value with the initial value (data type). For example, the initial value of the font and font size is 0. When the value of the selected font is 1, the value of the font size is 100, the value of the font 1 and the value of the font size 100 can be replaced by the initial value 0. The marquee file text font written by the writing module 200 is changed to the text number 10 of the standard body.

The content color configuration sub-module 2022 is configured to configure the text color of the marquee file. You can use the palette of the Red Green Blue (RGB) mode, or use the palette of the colorful mode. According to the searched marquee file, change the color value of the font to change the text color of the marquee file. For example, when you need a colorful mode palette to change the text of the marquee file When color, the red, green, and blue color values are defined as 0-255. When the three color values are all 0, it is displayed in white. When the three color values are all 255, it is displayed in black, and the corresponding is given. The color display of the three color values is adjusted, that is, the three color values are respectively displayed with different values of the color effect. When it is necessary to change the color of the font, take the values of red, green, and blue, such as taking the red value 155, the green value 120, and the blue value 255, and replacing the value with the initial value. At this time, a marquee with colored text is obtained. file.

The background color configuration sub-module 2023 is configured to configure the background color of the text of the marquee file. Changing the background color can also use the RGB palette or the colorful mode palette. According to the searched marquee file, the color value of the background of the text is changed correspondingly, thereby changing the background color of the text of the marquee file. The color configuration of the background can also adopt the above-mentioned manner of defining the color value range of red, green, and blue colors from 0 to 255, that is, taking the values of the three colors separately to obtain backgrounds of different colors.

The moving speed configuration sub-module 2024 is configured to configure the text moving speed of the marquee file. Since the marquee file is a fluid text file, changing the speed of the text file can make some files such as longer-length announcements more effective and reasonable. Specifically, you can define the value of the moving speed. For example, the range of 0-50 values is the slow moving text, the range of 50-100 values is the medium speed moving text, and the range of 100-150 values is the fast moving text. When needed, When changing the text moving speed of the marquee file, according to the value of the moving speed defined above, and then replacing the initial value, different moving speed playback effects are achieved.

The following is an example to illustrate how to configure the text of the marquee file. For example, in the above example, the manager of company A needs to issue multiple different notices to different departments of the subordinates, assuming that there are two departments, department a and department b, management personnel. The two announcements issued to the departments a and b are written, and when the two notifications need to be separately configured, the two notifications are searched through the search module 201. Assume that the announcements posted to the two departments a and b require different configurations. For example, the notification sent to department a needs to be configured as a new compact, 14-character, white text, black background, slow moving speed, and sent to department b. The announcement needs to be configured in bold, 18 characters, black text, white background, fast moving speed. Since the advertisements issued to the two departments a and b require different configurations, the search module 201 searches for the advertisements posted to a, and the font and size configuration sub-module 2021 selects the font value 0 as a new compact. The size value 300 is 14 characters, and the red, green, and blue colors of the content color submodule 2022 are 0, and the background color configuration sub-module 2023 takes the red, green, and blue colors as 255. The moving speed configuration sub-module 2024 takes the value of the moving speed in the range of 0-50. Thus, the announcement issued to a satisfies the new compact, the 14th word, the white text, the black background, and the slow moving speed. Similarly, the advertisement issued to b is searched for, and the configuration of the announcement issued to b is completed through the configuration sub-module of the configuration module 202. The departments a and b may include a group of a plurality of client computers 10. At this time, the configuration module 202 selects the group value of the client computer 10 of the two departments a and b according to the value of the defined group, and publishes the group value. Therefore, the purpose of playing different configuration announcements in the two departments a and b is realized.

The present invention has been disclosed above in the preferred embodiments, but it is not intended to limit the present invention. . The scope of the present invention is defined by the scope of the appended claims, unless otherwise claimed.
