Embodiments for Carrying Out the Invention

[0011] Hereinafter, embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings. It should be noted that although various technically preferable limitations are imposed on the embodiments described below for carrying out the present invention, the scope of the present invention is not limited to the following embodiments and illustrated examples.

[0012] Referring to FIGS. 1 to 8, embodiments according to the present invention will be described. First, referring to FIGS. 1 and 2, the device configuration of this embodiment will be described. FIG. 1 is a front view of the handy terminal 10 of this embodiment. FIG. 2 is a block diagram showing the functional configuration of the handy terminal 10.

[0013] As shown in FIG. 1, the handy terminal 10 as the terminal device of this embodiment is a portable terminal used by store employees such as those in supermarkets and general merchandise stores, and workers in warehouses as users. It is assumed that symbols such as barcodes and two-dimensional codes, which include product information related to the product, such as identification information of the product, are attached to the products stored in stores, warehouses, etc. The handy terminal 10 reads the symbol attached to the product and acquires the product information as decoded data obtained by decoding. For example, the user uses the handy terminal 10 to perform operations involving symbol reading, such as inventory taking of products in stores and warehouses.

[0014] The handy terminal 10 includes an operation unit 12, a display unit 14, and a scanner unit 17. The operation unit 12 receives the user's operation input. The operation unit 12 has a key group 12A and a touch panel 12B. The key group 12A has a plurality of keys as operation elements that receive the pressing input from the user. The key group 12A includes a power key 120, a function key 121, trigger keys 122, 123, etc.

[0015] The power key 120 is a key that receives the power-on input of the handy terminal 10 from the user and is arranged on the right side surface of the handy terminal 10. The function key 121 is a key that receives various inputs from the user and is arranged on the front surface of the handy terminal 10. The trigger keys 122, 123 are keys that receive the on input for symbol reading by the scanner unit 17. The trigger key 122 is arranged on the left side surface of the handy terminal 10. The trigger key 123 is arranged on the right side surface of the handy terminal 10.

[0016] The touch panel 12B is an operation element that is integrally formed on the display panel 141 of the display unit 14 and receives touch inputs such as touches from a user's finger. The touch panel 12B is a touch panel such as a capacitance type or a resistive film type.

[0017] The display unit 14 has a display panel 141 and displays various display information on the display panel 141.

[0018] The scanner unit 17 is an imaging type image scanner for reading symbols and is disposed in front of the handy terminal 10 (above in FIG. 1). The scanner unit 17 is a digital camera unit having an imaging element such as a CCD (Charge Coupled Device) or a CMOS (Complementary Metal Oxide Semiconductor) image sensor, an optical system, etc., and generates and outputs image data of an imaged subject (symbol).

[0019] Next, referring to FIG. 2, the internal functional configuration of the handy terminal 10 will be described. The handy terminal 10 includes a CPU (Central Processing Unit) 11, an operation unit 12, a RAM 13, a display unit 14, a storage unit 15, a wireless communication unit 16, and a scanner unit 17. Each unit of the handy terminal 10 is connected via a bus B1.

[0020] The CPU 11 controls each unit of the handy terminal 10. The CPU 11 reads out a specified program among various programs including the system program stored in the storage unit 15, expands it in the RAM 13, and executes various processes in cooperation with the expanded program.

[0021] As described above, the operation unit 12 has the key group 12A and the touch panel 12B. The operation unit 12 receives an operation input of a key input to the key group 12A or a touch input to the touch panel 12B from the user, and outputs the operation information to the CPU 11.

[0022] RAM 13 is a volatile semiconductor memory that can read and write information. It provides a working area for the CPU 11 and temporarily stores data and programs.

[0023] Figure 3 shows the configuration of the display unit 14. The display unit 14 includes a display panel 141, a driver IC (Integrated Circuit) 142, a power supply IC 143, and a backlight 144. The display panel 141 is an LCD (Liquid Crystal Display) panel. The driver IC 142 generates a drive voltage for driving the display panel 141 based on the power supply voltage supplied from the power supply IC 143 and in accordance with the control signal transmitted from the CPU 11. Also, the driver IC 142 switches the on / off of the switching elements of each pixel according to the control signal transmitted from the CPU 11 to execute the display on the display panel 141. The backlight 144 includes an LED (Light Emitting Diode) or the like and irradiates light from the back side of the display panel 141 to the entire surface of the display panel 141 under the control of the CPU 11.

[0024] The display unit 14 can adjust the drive voltage of the display panel 141, the frame rate of screen switching in the display panel 141, the operating frequency of the driver IC 142, and the screen brightness due to the light emission of the backlight 144 under the control of the CPU 11.

[0025] The display unit 14 forms a display image on the display panel 141 according to various display information input from the CPU 11 and the like, transmits the light output from the backlight 144 through the display panel 141, and displays various display information.

[0026] The storage unit 15 is composed of a flash memory or the like and is a storage unit capable of reading and writing information. It stores various data and various programs. The storage unit 15 stores a startup control program P1 for executing the startup control process described later.

[0027] In addition, the storage unit 15 stores the first setting parameter and the second setting parameter, which are the setting parameters of the display unit 14. As shown in FIG. 4, the setting parameters of the display unit 14 include at least the driving voltage of the display panel 141. The setting parameters of the display unit 14 may include the frame rate of screen switching in the display panel 141, the operating frequency of the driver IC 142, and the screen brightness due to the light emission of the backlight 144. The CPU 11 receives the first setting parameter and the second setting parameter from an external device via the wireless communication unit 16 and stores them in the storage unit 15, for example, as the system program of the handy terminal 10 is updated.

[0028] In addition, the operating temperature range of the handy terminal 10 is, for example, -20°C to 50°C, which is wider than that of devices such as smartphones. Therefore, the first setting parameter is a value that can ensure display stability and display visibility in the display unit 14 when the handy terminal 10 manufactured after a predetermined time or the handy terminal 10 of a specific model is used in an environment of, for example, -20°C to 50°C. In the first setting parameter, the driving voltage of the display panel 141 is the first driving voltage, the frame rate of screen switching is the first frame rate, the operating frequency of the driver IC 142 is the first operating frequency, and the screen brightness is the first brightness. Also, the second setting parameter is a value that can ensure display stability and display visibility in the display unit 14 when the handy terminal 10 manufactured before a predetermined time is used in an environment of, for example, -20°C to 50°C. In the second setting parameter, the driving voltage of the display panel 141 is the second driving voltage, the frame rate of screen switching is the second frame rate, the operating frequency of the driver IC 142 is the second operating frequency, and the screen brightness is the second brightness.

[0029] In addition, the storage unit 15 includes a parameter setting register. The parameter setting register stores a register value in association with the setting parameter of the display unit 14. For example, when the parameter setting register stores the register value "1", the CPU 11 applies the first setting parameter as the setting parameter of the display unit 14. For example, when the parameter setting register stores the register value "2", the CPU 11 applies the second setting parameter as the setting parameter of the display unit 14. The register value of the parameter setting register can be changed by an instruction operation by the user via the operation unit 12. That is, the CPU 11 receives an input of setting specification information (register value associated with the setting parameter) of the setting parameter by the user for each handy terminal 10. The CPU 11 functions as a reception unit.

[0030] In addition, the storage unit 15 stores identification information for identifying the handy terminal 10 such as a serial number. The identification information includes information such as the model name and manufacturing date of the handy terminal 10. Further, the storage unit 15 stores a model name table T1 shown in FIG. 5 and a manufacturing date table T2 shown in FIG. 6. The model name table T1 stores the model name of the handy terminal 10 and the setting parameter of the display unit 14 in association with each other. The manufacturing date table T2 stores the time (year and month) when the handy terminal 10 was manufactured and the setting parameter of the display unit 14 in association with each other.

[0031] The wireless communication unit 16 is a wireless communication unit for WLAN (Wireless Local Area Network) and WAN (Wide Area Network), and includes an antenna, an oscillation unit, a modulation / demodulation unit, an amplification unit, a signal processing unit, etc. for WLAN and WAN. The wireless communication unit 16 performs wireless communication with a base station or an access point on a communication network (not shown) according to an instruction from the CPU 11. The CPU 11 communicates with an external device on the communication network via the wireless communication of the wireless communication unit 16.

[0032] The scanner unit 17 captures an image of a symbol as a subject in accordance with an instruction from the CPU 11, generates image data as scan data, and outputs it to the CPU 11 and the like. For example, the scanner unit 17 captures an image of a symbol attached to a product in a store, a warehouse, or the like, and generates image data of the symbol. The CPU 11 decodes the image data of the symbol to generate decoded data, and reads the product information of the decoded data.

[0033] Further, the handy terminal 10 may be configured to include an imaging unit different from the scanner unit 17, a communication unit for another communication method such as NFC (Near Field Communication), a sound output unit using a speaker, a light output unit using an LED, and the like.

[0034] Next, with reference to FIG. 7, the operation of the handy terminal 10 will be described. FIG. 7 is a flowchart showing startup control processing. In the handy terminal 10, when the power key 120 is pressed and input by the user from the power-off state, the state shifts to the power-on state. Triggered by the shift to the power-on state, the CPU 11 executes startup control processing in accordance with the startup control program P1 stored in the storage unit 15.

[0035] (Startup control processing) First, the CPU 11 reads the register value of the parameter setting register from the storage unit 15 (step S1). That is, the CPU 11 acquires the setting specification information related to the driving conditions of the display unit 14. The CPU 11 functions as an acquisition unit. Next, the CPU 11 determines whether the register value of the parameter setting register read in step S1 is "1" (step S2). When the register value of the parameter setting register is "1" (step S2; YES), the CPU 11 supplies a power voltage to the display unit 14 (step S3). Next, the CPU 11 applies the first setting parameter as the setting parameter of the display unit 14, generates a display image on the display panel 141, and turns on the backlight 144 (step S4). Next, the CPU 11 ends the startup control process. That is, when the setting specification information acquired as the acquisition unit is the first setting specification information (register value is "1"), the CPU 11 sets the setting parameter of the display unit 14 to the first setting parameter.

[0036] On the other hand, when the register value of the parameter setting register is not "1" (step S2; NO), the CPU 11 determines whether the register value of the parameter setting register is "2" (step S5). When the register value of the parameter setting register is "2" (step S5; YES), the CPU 11 supplies a power voltage to the display unit 14 (step S6). Next, the CPU 11 applies the second setting parameter as the setting parameter of the display unit 14, generates a display image on the display panel 141, and turns on the backlight 144 (step S7). Next, the CPU 11 ends the startup control process. That is, when the setting specification information acquired as the acquisition unit is the second setting specification information (register value is "2"), the CPU 11 sets the setting parameter of the display unit 14 to the second setting parameter.

[0037] Also, when the register value of the parameter setting register is not "2" (for example, when the register value is "0") (step S5; NO), the CPU 11 acquires the identification information of the handy terminal 10 stored in the storage unit 15 (step S8). That is, the CPU 11 acquires the model name of the handy terminal 10. The CPU 11 functions as an acquisition unit.

[0038] Next, based on the identification information acquired in step S8, the CPU 11 determines whether the model name of the handy terminal 10 is a specific model name (step S9). The specific model name is, for example, the model name "A" or "B" in the model name table T1. When the model name of the handy terminal 10 is a specific model name (step S9; YES), the CPU 11 transfers the startup control process to step S3. That is, in this case, the CPU 11 applies the first setting parameter as the setting parameter of the display unit 14 based on the model name table T1.

[0039] On the other hand, when the model name of the handy terminal 10 is not a specific model name (step S9; NO), the CPU 11 determines whether the manufacturing date of the handy terminal 10 is after a predetermined time (step S10). The predetermined time is, for example, "November 2023" in the manufacturing date table T2. When the manufacturing date of the handy terminal 10 is after the predetermined time (step S10; YES), the CPU 11 transfers the startup control process to step S3. That is, in this case, the CPU 11 applies the first setting parameter as the setting parameter of the display unit 14 based on the manufacturing date table T2.

[0040] Also, when the manufacturing date of the handy terminal 10 is before the predetermined time (step S10; NO), the CPU 11 transfers the startup control process to step S6. That is, in this case, the CPU 11 applies the second setting parameter as the setting parameter of the display unit 14 based on the manufacturing date table T2.

[0041] In step S4 or S7 of the above startup control process, the CPU 11 selectively sets the setting parameters of the display unit 14 to any one of a plurality of predetermined setting parameters including the first setting parameter based on the success or failure of a predetermined setting condition. The CPU 11 functions as a setting unit. The CPU 11 performs display on the display unit 14 according to the set setting parameters. The CPU 11 functions as a control unit. The predetermined setting condition includes that the model name of the handy terminal 10 included in the identification information is a specific model name, and the manufacturing date of the handy terminal 10 is after a predetermined time period.

[0042] In the above startup control process, when the model name of the handy terminal 10 is a specific model name (step S9; YES), the CPU 11 applies the first setting parameter as the setting parameter of the display unit 14. That is, regardless of the manufacturing date of the handy terminal 10, the first setting parameter can be applied as the setting parameter of the display unit 14. Thereby, the setting parameters applied to the display units 14 of a large number of handy terminals 10 of the same model used by large-scale users can be unified.

[0043] Note that, compared with devices such as smartphones, the same model of the handy terminal 10 is produced for a long period of time. Therefore, variations in component characteristics occur in the manufacture of the handy terminal 10 over a long period. Also, the handy terminal 10 is used for a long period (for example, 10 years or more) compared with devices such as smartphones. Therefore, changes in component characteristics due to deterioration of components of the handy terminal 10 occur. The components constituting the display unit 14 of the handy terminal 10 are easily affected by the above-mentioned variations and changes. Therefore, the screen displayed by the display unit 14 of the handy terminal 10 of a model manufactured over a long period or the handy terminal 10 used for a long period may become unstable. To address this problem, in the above startup control process, the CPU 11 can set appropriate setting parameters corresponding to the manufacturing date and month of the handy terminal 10 in the display unit 14. Therefore, even when the handy terminal 10 is manufactured over a long period or the handy terminal 10 is used for a long period, the display stability in the display unit 14 can be ensured.

[0044] (Others) In the above embodiment, it may be assumed that a distribution device 20 (see FIG. 8) communicably connected to the handy terminal 10 via the communication network N distributes the startup control program P1 to the handy terminal 10. In this case, the CPU 11 of the handy terminal 10 receives the startup control program P1 from the distribution device 20 via the wireless communication unit 16 and stores it in the storage unit 15.

[0045] As described above, the terminal device (handy terminal 10) of the present embodiment is a terminal device including a display unit 14, and includes an acquisition unit (CPU 11) that acquires the model name of the terminal device, and based on whether a predetermined setting condition is satisfied or not, a setting unit (CPU 11) that selectively sets the setting parameter of the display unit 14 to any one of a plurality of predetermined setting parameters including the first setting parameter, and a control unit (CPU 11) that performs display on the display unit 14 according to the setting parameter set by the setting unit. When the model name acquired by the acquisition unit is a specific model name, the setting unit sets the setting parameter to the first setting parameter regardless of other setting conditions. Thereby, based on the model name of the handy terminal 10, the first setting parameter can be applied as the setting parameter of the display unit 14 regardless of the manufacturing date of the handy terminal 10. Thereby, the setting parameters applied to the display units 14 of a large number of handy terminals 10 of the same model used by a large number of users can be unified.

[0046] In the terminal device (handy terminal 10) of the present embodiment, the acquisition unit (CPU 11) acquires the manufacturing date of the terminal device. In the terminal device (handy terminal 10) of the present embodiment, when the manufacturing date of the terminal device acquired by the acquisition unit is after a predetermined time, the setting unit (CPU 11) sets the setting parameter to the first setting parameter, while when the manufacturing date of the terminal device is before the predetermined time, the setting unit sets the setting parameter to the second setting parameter. Thereby, appropriate setting parameters can be set for the display unit 14 based on the manufacturing date of the handy terminal 10. Therefore, even when the handy terminal 10 is manufactured over a long period or when the handy terminal 10 has been used for a long time, the display stability of the display unit 14 can be ensured.

[0047] The terminal device (handy terminal 10) of the present embodiment includes a reception unit (CPU 11) that receives input of setting designation information of setting parameters for each terminal device, and the setting unit (CPU 11) sets the setting parameters based on the setting designation information received by the reception unit. Thereby, the user can set desired setting parameters for the display unit 14 of the handy terminal 10.

[0048] In the terminal device (portable terminal 10) of the present embodiment, the setting parameter includes the driving voltage of the display unit 14. Thereby, an appropriate driving voltage can be set for the display unit 14 based on the identification information of the portable terminal 10.

[0049] In the terminal device (portable terminal 10) of the present embodiment, the setting parameter includes at least any one of the frame rate of screen switching of the display unit 14, the driving frequency of the display unit 14, and the screen brightness of the display unit 14. Thereby, at least any one of the appropriate frame rate of screen switching, driving frequency, and screen brightness can be set for the display unit 14 based on the identification information of the portable terminal 10.

[0050] The terminal device (portable terminal 10) of the present embodiment is a terminal device including a display unit 14, and includes an acquisition unit (CPU 11) that acquires setting designation information related to the driving conditions of the display unit 14, and when the setting designation information acquired by the acquisition unit is first setting information, sets the setting parameter of the display unit 14 to the first setting parameter, and when the setting designation information is second setting information, a setting unit (CPU 11) that sets the setting parameter of the display unit 14 to the second setting parameter, and a control unit (CPU 11) that performs display on the display unit 14 according to the setting parameter set by the setting unit. When the setting designation information is different from both the first setting designation information and the second setting designation information, the setting unit sets the setting parameter of the display unit 14 to the first setting parameter or the second setting parameter based on the model name included in the identification information of the terminal device. Thereby, when the setting designation information is different from both the first setting designation information and the second setting designation information, an appropriate setting parameter can be set for the display unit 14 based on the model name of the portable terminal 10.

[0051] In the above description, an example in which the storage unit 15 such as a flash memory is used as a computer-readable medium of the program according to the present invention has been disclosed, but the present invention is not limited to this example. As other computer-readable media, other non-volatile memories and portable recording media such as CD-ROMs can be applied. Further, a carrier wave is also applied to the present invention as a medium for providing the data of the program according to the present invention via a communication line.

[0052] Note that the description in the above embodiment is an example of the terminal device and the program according to the present invention, and the present invention is not limited thereto. For example, in the above embodiment, the CPU 11 is assumed to perform display by applying the first setting parameter or the second setting parameter as the setting parameter of the display unit 14 in the startup control process, but the present invention is not limited thereto. The CPU 11 may perform display by applying a third parameter different from the first setting parameter and the second setting parameter.

[0053] Also, in the above embodiment, the setting designation information is assumed to be a register value associated with the setting parameter, but the present invention is not limited thereto. The setting designation information may be a symbol or character different from the register value (for example, "1" or "2").

[0054] Also, in the startup control process of the above embodiment, the CPU 11 may execute steps S8 to S10 before step S1. In this case, when the model name of the handy terminal 10 is a specific model name (step S9; YES), or when the manufacturing date of the handy terminal 10 is after a predetermined time (step S10; YES), the CPU 11 executes steps S3 and S4 and ends the startup control process. Further, when the manufacturing date of the handy terminal 10 is before a predetermined time (step S10; NO), the CPU 11 executes steps S1 to S4, or steps S1, S2, S5 to S7, and ends the startup control process.

[0055] Also, in the startup control process of the above embodiment, when the register value of the parameter setting register is "1" (step S2; YES), the CPU 11 may execute steps S8 to S10. Also, in the startup control process of the above embodiment, when the register value of the parameter setting register is "2" (step S5; YES), the CPU 11 may execute steps S8 to S10.

[0056] Also, in the startup control process of the above embodiment, when the model name of the handy terminal 10 is a specific model name (step S9; YES), or when the manufacturing date of the handy terminal 10 is after a predetermined time (step S10; YES), the CPU 11 may set the register value of the parameter setting register to "1". Also, in the startup control process of the above embodiment, when the model name of the handy terminal 10 is not a specific model name (step S9; NO), or when the manufacturing date of the handy terminal 10 is before a predetermined time (step S10; NO), the CPU 11 may set the register value of the parameter setting register to "2".
