【Example】

Hereinafter, an embodiment in which the present invention is applied to a measurement value marking device will be described.

[0009] As shown in FIG. 1, a weighing value marking device 1 as an embodiment of the present invention has a weighing pan 2. It consists of a measuring instrument 3 and a main body 4 erected behind the measuring instrument 3. . This main body 4 includes a key input section having a large number of key tops 5...5 on one upper side thereof. 6 is arranged, and a printer 7 is installed on the side thereof. and A display 8 for displaying data is installed on the top of the main body 4.

0010 Note that the main body 4 is provided with a power switch 9 located below the key input section 6. It is being

[0011] Next, the control system of the weighing value marking device 1 will be explained with reference to FIG. The device 1 is equipped with a control unit 10 for controlling the overall operation. There is. This control unit 10 executes various arithmetic processing and control processing. A CPU 11, a ROM 12 in which operating programs etc. are stored in advance, and calculation results etc. A rewritable RAM 13 that stores various other data, and an input/output interface has a base 14. Then, in addition to the signal from the measuring instrument 3, the CPU 11 , the signal from the numeric keypad 15 for numerical input provided in the key input section 6, and the product. Check the signal from the call key 16 for data recall and the numerical value entered from the numeric keypad 15. a signal from the setting key 17 to confirm the settings, and a signal from the setting key 17 to cancel the input data before confirmation. The signal from the cancel key 18 and the signal displayed on the display screen 8a of the display 8 Hold keys to specify the cursor display position for specific items in the registration menu. A signal from -19 and a reset key 20 that cancels the designation made by the hold key 19. The signal from the In this case, the product data entered via the numeric keypad 15 is inputted using the cursor. A predetermined area of the RAM 13 is displayed for the setting items on the display screen 8a of the display 8. On the other hand, in the weighing mode, it is based on the weighing signal from the weighing device 3 mentioned above. The price of the object to be weighed calculated by The product data is displayed on the display 8, and the printer 7 prints the label. It is designed to make you write letters. Note that the CPU 11 performs the above settings in the registration mode. When the ON state of the constant key 17 is detected, the cursor displayed on the display 8 is moved to the next It will move you to the settings item.

0012 Here, when specifying the display position of the cursor using the hold key 19, , according to the flowchart shown in FIG.

[0013] For example, as shown in Figure 5, when changing the initial position of the cursor to the product code, , operate the setting key 14 four times to move the cursor position of the unit price item, which is the initial initial position. to the product code position, and then turn hold key 19 ON. make That is, each time the setting key 17 is turned on, the CPU 11 moves the cursor to the next Shift to the item (steps S1, S2). Then, the cursor is at the product code position. When the hold key 19 is turned on when the shift is made to -19 is turned on, and if it is determined as YES, step S4 The item where the cursor is located is the specified item in the RAM 13 as the first item to be specified. until the ON state of the call key 16 is detected in step S5. A loop process of steps S1 to S5 is executed.

[0014] Next, to explain the registration work in this weight value marking device 1, the flowchart shown in FIG. – It will be according to the chart.

[0015] That is, after turning on the power key 9, the operator performs a predetermined key operation to display the screen shown in FIG. After displaying the registration menu on the screen 8a of the display 8 as shown, After entering the number from key 15, turn on call key 16 to call up the corresponding product (step Step T1). In this case, if the cursor is not held, the cursor will initially It is displayed at the position (in the illustrated example, the unit price position) (steps T2, 3).

[0016] The operator then checks whether the setting item indicated by the cursor is the setting item that should be registered. If it is determined that it is not an item that should be registered, only the setting key 17 is turned on. (Step T4). This causes the cursor to move to the next position by the operation of the CPU 11. It moves to the item position (tare weight in the illustrated example) (step T5).

[0017] When the operator determines that the cursor indicates a setting item that should be registered, the operator Data for the item is input (step T6). In other words, enter from numeric keypad 15. The entered numerical value is temporarily displayed in the input area on the display screen 8a as shown in Figure 5. After that, turn on the setting key 17 to change the setting item indicated by the cursor. It will be registered as confirmed data.

[0018] The worker then determines whether there are any other items that should be registered and registers the items that should be registered. When it is determined that the product is no longer available, it is determined whether or not to register the next product. When you decide to register a product, enter the product's call number from the numeric keypad 15. After entering the information, turn on the call key 16 to call up the registration screen for the next product. (Steps T7 to T9). In this case, as shown in Figure 6, the table The cursor on the display screen 8a is displayed at the initial position indicating the unit price. become.

[0019] On the other hand, when the cursor display position is registered in advance, When the registration is displayed, a cursor is displayed at the specified item position (step T10). In other words, for example, as shown in Figure 7, the product code item is specified first. When the item is registered as a required item, follow the display on the registration screen for the next product. The cursor will be displayed at the position where you want to specify the product code. And ten After inputting a numerical value using the key 15, if you turn on the setting key 17, the input value will be input. The calculated values will be registered as confirmed data. (Step T11).

[0020] The CPU 11 determines that the next designated cursor exists after the above data is registered. In some cases, the cursor is moved to the next designated position (steps T12, 13). Made by When the vendor decides to register data in the setting item indicated by the cursor ( Step T14), the corresponding data is set again by operating the numeric keypad 15 and setting key 17. The data will be registered.

[0021] Then, if the worker does not register the data, the worker will move on to the next product in the same way as above. Decide whether to register or not, and if you decide to register, enter your calling number. After that, turn on the call key 16 to register the product corresponding to the call number. It will bring up the screen.

[0022] In that case, for example, as shown in Figure 8, the registration image of the product whose call number is "2" is displayed. The cursor will immediately be displayed at the product code position on the screen.

[0023] In this way, a specific item among multiple setting items is displayed in RAM as a cursor display item. 13, the cursor will move between the specific items. Therefore, hit the setting key 17 continuously like you would normally do to move the cursor to the setting item. This eliminates the hassle of moving items one by one in the order of the items, making it possible to perform input tasks quickly. Become.

[0024] This invention is applicable to devices such as electronic scales and label printers where product data is input. It can be widely applied to

[0025]
