Abstract

Abstract In a data processor including an input device for inputting commands and data, a central processing unit for executing processing in accordance with the input command or data from the input device and a display device for displaying the input command or data from the input device or the message generated by the central processing unit, the present invention discloses a data processor comprising an automatic input data memory for storing a trigger data to be displayed on the display device and automatic input data corresponding to the trigger data, a judgement device for judging whether or not the display of the display device is in agreement with the trigger data stored in the automatic input data memory, and an automatic input device for outputting the automatic input data corresponding to the trigger data from the automatic input data memory to the central processing unit in accordance with the result of the judgement operation performed by the judgement device.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 10
Claim 1
Independent Claim 186 words
A data processor comprising: an input device for inputting information; a central processing unit for executing predetermined processes in accordance with said information input by said input device and generating messages related to said predetermined processes; a display memory for storing display data corresponding to said messages generated by said central processing unit; a display device for displaying said display data stored in said display memory; input data memory means for storing trigger data and input data corresponding to said trigger data, said input data corresponding to said predetermined processes performed by said central processing unit and said trigger data includes position data indicative of a specific position on said display device and data to be displayed at said specific position; judgements means for judging whether display data corresponding to said messages stored in said display memory satisfies a predetermined relationship to said trigger data; and output means for sending input data corresponding to said trigger data from said input data memory means to said central processing unit when said predetermined relationship is judged to be satisfied by a judgement operation performed by said judgement means.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 186 words
A data processor comprising: an input device for inputting information; a central processing unit for executing predetermined processes in accordance with said information input by said input device and generating messages related to said predetermined processes; a display memory for storing display data corresponding to said messages generated by said central processing unit; a display device for displaying said display data stored in said display memory; input data memory means for storing trigger data and input data corresponding to said trigger data, said input data corresponding to said predetermined processes performed by said central processing unit and said trigger data includes position data indicative of a specific position on said display device and data to be displayed at said specific position; judgements means for judging whether display data corresponding to said messages stored in said display memory satisfies a predetermined relationship to said trigger data; and output means for sending input data corresponding to said trigger data from said input data memory means to said central processing unit when said predetermined relationship is judged to be satisfied by a judgement operation performed by said judgement means.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 35 words
A data processor as defined in claim 1, wherein said trigger data stored in said input data memory means further includes attribute data of characters of said data to be positioned on said display device.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 34 words
A data processor as defined in claim 1, further comprising: display data read means for reading out said display memory to said display device before said judgement operation is performed by said judgement means.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim 33 words
A data processor as defined in claim 1, wherein said data to be positioned includes said trigger data which includes a character code corresponding to characters to be displayed on said display device.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim 38 words
A data processor as defined in claim 2, further comprising: display data read means for reading out display data which includes character codes of said characters and said attribute data from said display memory to said display device.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim 74 words
A data processor as defined in claim 1 wherein said central processing unit includes means for demanding an input of a new command or new data in accordance with the command or data inputted by said input device, and said judgement means for judging whether or not display data in said display memory coincides with said trigger data stored in said input data memory means whenever said central processing unit generates an input demand.
Claim 8
Dependent Claim 38 words
A data processor as defined in claim 6, which includes said input data memory means for storing in advance a plurality of sets of combinations of said trigger data and said input data corresponding to said trigger data.
Claim 9
Dependent Claim 45 words
A data processor as defined in claim 7, wherein said input data memory means stores data representing said combinations of said trigger data and said corresponding input data to be judged next in accordance with the result of said judgement operation of said judgement means.
Claim 10
Dependent Claim 34 words
A data processor as defined in claim 7, wherein said input data memory means stores data representing a number of repetitions of said judgement operation when conditions of said judgment operators are not true.
