Abstract

PURPOSE:To reduce the load of a main controlling section by registering an animation pattern beforehand on the CRT side of an automatic business machine having an animation display area. CONSTITUTION:A main controlling section 4 stores still letter codes beforehand in picture buffers 52-1-52-n of a CRT terminal device 5 and stores ANM pattern in an animation ANM register section 56. The controlling section 4 sends out the designated information of buffers 52-1-52-n and the necessary ANM designated number. A picture changeover controlling section 5 designates one of picture buffers. Consequently, one letter pattern is displayed on CRT 55, and at the same time, an ANM controlling section 57 writes the ANM designated number in a specified area of a specified picture buffer. Consequently, the ANM designated number is converted to actual data by the register section 56, and the ANM is displayed on CRT 55. When the controlling section 4 sends the ANM renewal designation information, the controlling section 57 rewrites the ANM numbers successively, and displays the ANM patterns successively on CRT 55.

Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION (1) Technical Field of the Invention The present invention relates to automatic transaction devices such as Cadge Island Despair "J-", [tll deposit machines, and these machines.

In particular, the present invention relates to a display control method for a personal transaction equipment equipped with a CRT display section.

(2) Technical background Generally, when an automatic transaction device prompts a customer to make a 91.14 operation, JARs are displayed. The mainstream of such displays was a rotary display with only the CL1 character written on it, but recently the number of A and K types has increased, making it possible to trade O and H types. CRi° display stand came into use. This! By.

It has become common to show customers simple operation diagrams and guide them through the operations.

(3) Conventional technology and problems Conventionally, in automatic transaction devices equipped with CRT, CR
The screen area of the T is divided into a static character display area and an animation display area, and the contents displayed in these two areas are stored in a screen buffer provided on the CRT side.

Therefore, in order to rewrite a part of the CRT screen, it is sufficient to send update data to the corresponding anchor area of one screen buffer each time.

However, in the conventional form mentioned above, one character data
(actual tJ character code) When changing the animation display that requires a large amount of data, a large amount of data must be transferred from the main control side to the CRT side, and as a result, the CRT control There is a problem in that the load on the main control becomes large, and the load on the main control and the filling on the CRT side also becomes large.

(4) Purpose of the Invention The purpose of the present invention is based on Sakaki's idea of registering animation patterns on the CR and T sides. The object of this invention is to reduce the load on the main control and also reduce the load between the main control and the CRT side, thereby solving the problems in the conventional type described above.

(5) Structure of the invention According to the present invention to achieve the above objects.

Eight animation patterns are registered in an automatic transaction device equipped with a display section having static character codes tJ, b- and an animation display area that changes periodically, and a screen buffer for storing the display contents of the display section. an animation registration section and an animation control section for sending an animation pattern whose address has been specified to the display section; an address area for storing the address of the animation registration section in the screen buffer; There is provided a display control method for an automatic transaction device, characterized in that an animation control section rewrites and controls the animation display on the display section by controlling the rewriting of the animation address in the address area.

(6) Examples of the invention The present invention will be described in detail below with reference to nine drawings.

No. 11g1 is a CRT of an automatic transaction device to which the present invention is applied.
It is a figure which shows a screen panel. In FIG. 1, the CRT screen fJ is divided into a static character display area 1 and an animation display area 2, and a plurality of operation buttons 3 are arranged around the CRT screen fJ. While a character is displayed once in static character display area 1.

In the animation display area 2, an animation may be displayed once or multiple times, or no animation may be displayed at all. For example, the animation display changes periodically as shown in FIG. 2 (1) to (3).

FIG. 3 is a block circuit M showing an embodiment of a display control method for an automatic transaction device according to the present invention. In Figure 3,
4 and L main control section, which includes a main control section 41 and a data supply section 4.
2. High speed memory 43. It is composed of a floppy disk 44 and the like. 5 is equipped with a CRT terminal, a data processing unit 5], n screen buffers 52-1 to 52-tt,
A screen switching control unit 53 that selects one of the screen buffers 52-1 to 52-. Character generator i'i4. which generates a real division Q character pattern. It is composed of cRT55, etc.

According to the present invention 71. and a k-th animation registration section 56 for registering a plurality of animation patterns in the CRT terminal device 5. and an animation control section 57 are added. This animation control section 57 has a counter 571 for setting 8 hours. A timer 572, a buffer 573 for storing animation update pattern order. It is configured to include an interval timer 574 and the like for measuring the display time of each animation pattern.

Each of the screen buffers 52-1 to 52-1 corresponds to one (1) static character display, and therefore, in order to create a static character display area, the designated screen buffer may be switched by the screen switching control section 53. Of course, even if the character code of the screen buffer being displayed is changed by the main control unit 4, the static character display will change.

At tJ when the CRT terminal device 5 is started for the first time, the main control section 4 loads the memory 43 and the floppy disk 44' (L-144
Then, multiple stationary character codes are stored in the screen buffer 52-1.
~52-H, and the animation patterns of Mato and several others, such as patterns of stripes 2 (1) to (3), are stored in advance in the animation registration section 56.

As a normal operation, the main control section 4 sends the designation information of the screen buffers 52-1 to 52-1 and the required animation designation number as a display command to the CRT terminal device 5. As a result, the nine-screen switching control section specifies one of the screen buffers, and as a result, one -) static character pattern is displayed on the CRT.
56. At the same time, the animation control unit 57 writes the animation designation number into a predetermined area of the designated screen buffer, and as a result, the animation designation number is converted into actual data by the animation registration unit 56 and the animation is displayed. In addition, when one static character is displayed, that is, when updating the animation pattern in order without changing the designated screen buffer, the main control unit 4 includes the instruction 1#4k for animation update operation in the display command. By this,
The pattern update order is stored in buffer 573 and interval timer 574 is specified. As a result, the animation pattern is displayed on the CRT 55 through the animation date registration section 56 in order of the animation numbers stored in the one buffer 573 of the animation control section 56 in the specified screen buffer.

(7) As described in detail, according to the present invention, since the animation converter yl-L, which requires a large amount of data, is stored in advance in the animation date registration unit 56, the main control unit 4&
, it is only necessary to send the finger information ( ) of the animation date registration section 56 to the CRT terminal (L25) in the J display command. Therefore, the main control section 40 cost can be reduced, and the main control Since the amount of data transferred between the section 4 and the CRT terminal device is reduced, the load therebetween can also be reduced.
