Definitions

  • the invention relates to a user interface according to the preamble of patent claim 1.
  • the simplest form of a user interface was found in the earlier telephones, namely only a dial for establishing a connection to an external communication subscriber.
  • the user interface usually contains a keypad for entering the phone number and a display device in the form of a display.
  • the user interface can also have other keys, such as speed dial keys or other function keys for redial, open listening and the like.
  • a user interface is displayed on the monitor or on the display device.
  • the various key functions can be activated by selecting them with the mouse or using the cursor keys.
  • the keypad of a telephone can, for example, be programmed in such a way that a preset number is dialed when any key is pressed. This method is particularly useful for toddlers who can call their parents this way, for example when visiting friends.
  • a user interface for a telephone or for a telephone function has a keypad and a display device.
  • the keypad contains number keys and next to them, for example, keys for a short call. Furthermore, keys can be provided for special functions, such as diverting calls, callback and / or redialing.
  • the user interface has a touch-sensitive surface.
  • the buttons for the various functions for operating the telephone are shown on this area.
  • the associated function is activated by touching a keypad, for example the dialed number of a phone number is provided for the connection establishment or a function such as open listening is activated.
  • the number and / or the graphic representation of the keypads can be changed.
  • a display device for example an LC display, can also be integrated in the user interface according to the invention.
  • the symbols to represent the keypads are available as example ⁇ from a symbol generator.
  • a TRUCTURING the invention is the graphic representation of the keys is input via an editing by the user. The user can then freely define the shape, type and number of key and function fields.
  • the user interface of the telephone or of the communication terminal can be made switchable, for example, between three representations of the keypads.
  • the first display is the normal display, in which all functions can be called, and therefore all keypads assigned to these functions are shown on the user interface. With this user interface in normal representation, all functional features of the terminal are available to the user.
  • the keypads are labeled with numbers and / or texts.
  • a second representation of the user interface is a so-called "child representation".
  • the keypads are larger than that of the normal display.
  • the keypads can also be labeled with symbols. These symbols can be, for example, faces, figures or similar drawings, which are known per se from the clipart program of personal computers.
  • a third representation enables, for example, simple operation of the communication terminal. Not all keypads are shown on the user interface, and therefore not all functions of the terminal can be called up. The basic functions can be selected with this user interface, thus ensuring simple operation.
