Next, the main operation of the present invention will be described. FIG. 3 is a flowchart showing the operation of the control circuit (11), and FIG. 4 is a diagram showing a change in the screen. In FIGS. 3 and 4, the latent screen is a screen that interrupts non-emergency notification information even if the information should be notified to the user. If this operation is performed by the user when the hidden screen is displayed, it is not displayed thereafter. There are a screen that allows this interrupt display when a hidden screen needs to be displayed and a screen that prohibits the interrupt display. In this embodiment,
The interruption display of the concealment screen is allowed in the initial screen of the standby and the initial screen of the call, and the interruption display of the concealment screen is prohibited in various setting screens and screens of the telephone directory.

As examples of the latent screen of this embodiment, there are a first latent screen (g) and a second latent screen (i) as shown in FIG. These screen display data and a flag indicating whether or not the display is necessary are stored in the RAM (13). The first latency screen (g) informs that the text message could not be normally received for some reason (for example, due to tunnel driving), and the second latency screen (g).
Is a notification screen for notifying that the text message is over.

In FIG. 3, the control circuit (11) has a latent screen which needs to be displayed and has not yet been confirmed (S11), that is, there is a latent screen which has a display-needed flag. If the currently displayed screen allows the display of the latent screen (Y in S12), the latent screen is displayed by interruption (S13). If the confirmation operation is performed on the latent screen (N in S14), it is determined that the confirmation is recognized, and the flag of the displayed latent screen is not required to be displayed (S15). Then, a screen without the original interruption is displayed (S16).

FIG. 4 corresponding to steps S11 to S16 will be described. If a text message reception error occurs while the standby initial screen (c) is being displayed, the control circuit (11) determines that the standby initial screen (c) is a screen that allows the display of a latent screen. Is displayed by interruption (Y in S11, Y in S12, S13).
Here, when the END key (163) or the F1 key (165) corresponding to the display of "OK" is operated, the first latency screen (g) is confirmed as being confirmed, and the standby initial state originally intended to be displayed is displayed. The screen (c) is displayed (Y of S14, S15, S16).

When the control circuit (11) is displaying the standby initial screen (c), the F corresponding to the "MENU" display is displayed.
When the 1 key (165) is operated, the standby initial screen (c)
Is displayed on the setting first layer screen (f), which is the lower layer of.
Even if a text message reception error occurs while the setting one-level screen (f) is displayed, the setting one-level screen (f) is a screen that prohibits the display of the latent screen.
The first latency screen (g) is not displayed (Y in S11, S
12 N, S16). In addition, the control circuit (11) sets 1
When the END key (163) is operated to return to the standby initial screen (c) while the hierarchical screen (f) is being displayed, the standby initial screen (c) to be displayed permits display of the latent screen. Control screen (11)
Displays the first latency screen (g) by interruption (S
11 Y, S12 Y, S13). Here, the END key (163) or the F1 key (1
65), the first latent screen (g) is confirmed, and the standby initial screen (c) originally intended to be displayed is displayed (Y in S14, S15, S1).
6). Although not shown, there is a setting two-layer screen below the setting one-layer screen (f), and this screen is a screen that prohibits the display of a latent screen. Therefore, the control circuit (11)
Indicates that the hidden screen is not displayed on the setting 2
When an operation to return to the standby initial screen (c) via the hierarchical screen (f) is performed, a hidden screen is displayed.

The initial screen during call (e) is a screen that allows the display of a hidden screen, and the second hidden screen (i), which is a lower layer of the initial screen during call (e), displays the hidden screen. This is a screen that is prohibited. When the memory of the text message is over and it becomes necessary to display the second latent screen (i), the control circuit (11) executes the above-mentioned standby initial screen (c) and the setting first hierarchical screen (f). Similar to the behavior of
On the initial screen during call (e), the second latency screen (i) is displayed by interruption (Y in S11, Y in S12, S13),
The second concealment screen (i) is not displayed on the telephone directory one-level screen (h) (Y in S11, N in S12, S16).

In the method of displaying a hidden screen as in steps S11 to S16, even if it is necessary to display the hidden screen on the screen for which the display of the hidden screen is prohibited, the operation of shifting to the screen allowing the display of the hidden screen is performed. Otherwise, the latent screen remains hidden without being confirmed. The present invention prevents the hidden screen from being left unchecked due to the power being turned off in such a case.

In FIG. 3, a POWER key (164)
Is operated (Y in S1), and before the POWER key (164) is operated, if the power is off (Y in S2), the control circuit (11) regards this as an operation of turning on the power and turns on the power. After displaying the transition screen for 3 seconds (S3), an initial screen for standby is displayed (S4) ((a) in FIG. 4 →
(B) → (c)).

The POWER key (164) is operated (S
If the power is not off before the POWER key (164) is operated (Y in 1) (N in S2), the control circuit (11) regards this as a power off operation. And
If there is a hidden screen that needs to be displayed when the POWER key (164) is operated (Y in S5), the hidden screen is displayed by interruption (S6), and the POWER key (164) is again activated.
Is operated (Y in S7), assuming that the latent screen has been confirmed (S8), the OFF transition screen is displayed for 3 seconds (S9), and the screen is turned OFF (erased) (S10).

In FIG. 4, (g) → (c) and (i) →
As shown in (e) (not shown in FIG. 3), step S
6, when the hidden screen is displayed, not the POWER key (164) but the END key (163) or "O
When the F1 key (165) corresponding to "K" is operated, a screen which is displayed when the END key (163) is operated instead of the POWER key (164) in step S1 is displayed. When the user turns off the power and looks at the hidden screen, the user can select whether to turn off the power or continue the operation based on the judgment of the contents.

At step S5, the POWER key (16
If there is no latent screen that needs to be displayed when 4) is operated (N in S5), the OF is not displayed without displaying the latent screen.
After displaying the F transition screen for 3 seconds (S9), the screen is turned off.
F (erase) (S10).

FIG. 4 corresponding to the main part of steps S1 to S10 will be described. When the standby initial screen (c) is displayed, there is no hidden screen because this screen allows display of a hidden screen. Therefore, when the POWER key (164) is operated while the standby initial screen (c) is displayed, the control circuit (11) displays the OFF transition screen (d) because there is no latent screen that needs to be displayed. Is displayed for 3 seconds and then the OFF screen (a) is displayed (Y in S1, N, S in S2)
5 N, S9, S10).

The control circuit (11) displays the OFF transition screen (d) for 3 seconds when the POWER key (164) is operated on the setting one-level screen (f) when there is no latent screen to be displayed. After that, the screen is switched to the OFF screen (a) (S1
Y, S2 N, S5 N, S9, S10).

When the POWER key (164) is operated on the setting one-level screen (f) when there is a first latent screen (g) to be displayed, the control circuit (11) interrupts the first latent screen (g). Is displayed (Y in S1, N in S2, Y in S5, S6). Then, when the POWER key (164) is operated again, the confirmation of the hidden screen is recognized,
The flag of the first latent screen is changed to display unnecessary (S8).
Then, after the OFF transition screen (d) is displayed for 3 seconds, the OFF screen (a) is displayed (S9, S10). In this setting one-level screen (f), not the POWER key (164) but the END key (163) or the F key corresponding to "OK".
When the 1 key (165) is operated, the standby initial screen (c)
Is displayed (not shown in FIG. 3). As a result, the user can select whether to turn off the power or to continue the operation.

As described above, when the latent screen remains hidden without being confirmed, the present invention prevents the notification information from leaking because the latent screen is displayed in S6 when the power is turned off. can do.

Although the display of the notification information occupies the entire area of the display unit, the notification information may be displayed using a part of the screen that allows the notification information.
