Definitions
- the invention relates to a telecommunications terminal with a transmitting / receiving part, at least one microprocessor, an input device and an optical and / or acoustic display, the microprocessor having a menu structure with options which can be called up and / or changed by the user via the input can.
- This object is achieved on the basis of a telecommunications terminal of the type mentioned at the outset in that a memory list with keywords is assigned and each keyword is assigned to an option, the keywords of the memory bar being selectable by input, and the option after selection of the keyword by its confirmation can be called up and / or changed immediately.
- the user is no longer dependent on reaching the desired menu levels or sub-levels by long scrolling with the aid of soft keys, but merely has to confirm a selected keyword in order to arrive at the assigned option. This significantly simplifies user guidance.
- the keywords of the memory list can be selected using alphanumeric input keys and / or scroll keys.
- a combination of these keys is usually used, e.g. if there are several keywords under an initial letter.
- Another useful variant is characterized in that at least parts of the memory list can be freely edited via the input. This allows the user to give the menu options a name of their choice so that they can find a keyword more quickly when searching again, e.g. works better than the factory name.
- the invention is particularly advantageous if the terminal is a DECT and / or a GSM hand-held device.
- the invention together with further advantages is explained in more detail below using an exemplary embodiment and with reference to the drawing. Show in the drawing
- Fig. 2 is a simplified block diagram of a cell phone according to the invention.
- Fig. 3 to 7 the display or pressing a button on a cell phone in menu navigation according to the invention.
- the invention which relates very generally to a telecommunications terminal, is explained using the example of a mobile radio device, namely a cordless telephone, which operates according to the DECT standard. 2, in addition to a transceiver part HFT, it has at least one audio part AUD, a display ANZ, e.g. an LCD display and a TAS key input with illuminated keys.
- a transceiver part HFT in addition to a transceiver part HFT, it has at least one audio part AUD, a display ANZ, e.g. an LCD display and a TAS key input with illuminated keys.
- the microprocessor MIP has various control and processing functions in a known manner, and it also implements a menu structure with a mostly large number of options which relate to adjustable device properties, services of the network operator, etc. For example, here are the selection of the ringer melody, the ringer volume, display lighting, key click, message settings, change of PIN codes, call counter, language selection, network selection, etc. With commercially available GSM cell phones or GSM cordless devices, the number of such options can easily be 50 to 100.
- the options are structured in a menu structure, with submenus being provided in addition to main menus according to a tree structure.
- a memory list LIS with keywords is now set up, with each option being assigned a keyword.
- a section from a menu structure with e.g. 15 Menus and over 70 options could look as shown in Fig. 1.
- Such menu structures are also common in so-called “cell phones”, e.g. GSM devices, as well as in multi-system devices, e.g. “dual-mode cell phones”, so that the invention is particularly advantageous for all these devices.
