Abstract

Abstract A method of displaying a 7 decimal self CAP code in a display of a pager receiver. The pager receiver has an EEPROM for storing 18 bit address data and 3 bit frame data for enabling the pager receiver to receive a calling signal. The address data and frame data are derived from the CAP code. The EEPROM also stores a binary-coded decimal representation of the 7 decimal self CAP code. When no calling signal is received the CAP code can be displayed by pressing a read key of the pager receiver so that the binary-coded decimal representation can be read and converted to the 7 decimal CAP code. The EEPROM can also store binary-coded decimal representations of further CAP codes which are sequentially read and displayed by continuously keeping the read key pressed.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 9
Claim 1
Independent Claim 162 words
A method of displaying a self address decimal code in a pager receiver for receiving a calling signal, said pager receiver having a memory, a read key and a display, said method comprising the steps of: storing a first plurality of bits representative of address data and a second plurality of bits representative of frame data, wherein said address data and said frame data are derived from said self address decimal code, in a first location of said memory for enabling said pager receiver to receive said calling signal; storing binary-coded decimal representations of said self address decimal code in a second location of said memory; and reading out said binary-coded decimal representations in response to activation of said read key when no calling signal is being received by the pager receiver; and displaying on said display of said pager receiver the self address decimal code represented by said binary-coded decimal representations in response to said binary-coded decimal representations being read out.
Claim 2
Independent Claim 162 words
A method of displaying a self address decimal code in a pager receiver for receiving a calling signal, said pager receiver having a memory, a read key and a display, said method comprising the steps of: storing a first plurality of bits representative of address data and a second plurality of bits representative of frame data, wherein said address data and said frame data are derived from said self address decimal code, in a first location of said memory for enabling said pager receiver to receive said calling signal; storing binary-coded decimal representations of said self address decimal code in a second location of said memory; and reading out said binary-coded decimal representations in response to activation of said read key when no calling signal is being received by the pager receiver; and displaying on said display of said pager receiver the self address decimal code represented by said binary-coded decimal representations in response to said binary-coded decimal representations being read out.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 51 words
The method as claimed in claim 1, wherein said step of reading out said binary-coded decimal representations further comprises the step of: converting said binary-coded decimal representations to a decimal value wherein said decimal value is said self address decimal code and said self address decimal code is a cap code.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 81 words
The method as claimed in claim 2 further comprising the steps of: storing binary-coded decimal representations of a second self address decimal code in a third location of said memory; reading out said binary-coded decimal representations of said second self address decimal code in response to said read key being continuously activated for a predetermined time; and displaying said second self address decimal code in response to said binary-coded decimal representations of said second self address decimal code being read out.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim 81 words
The method as claimed in claim 1 further comprising the steps of: storing binary-coded decimal representations of a second self address decimal code in a third location of said memory; reading out said binary-coded decimal representations of said second self address decimal code in response to said read key being continuously activated for a predetermined time; and displaying said second self address decimal code in response to said binary-coded decimal representations of said second self address decimal code being read out.
Claim 6
Independent Claim 161 words
A method of displaying a self cap code of a pager receiver responsive to a "POCSAG code" for receiving a calling signal, said paging receiver having a memory, a read key and a display, said method comprising the steps of: storing address data and frame data in a first location of said memory for enabling said pager receiver to receive said calling signal, said frame data representing a frame of said "POCSAG code" in which said address data is transmitted to said pager receiver, said address data and said frame data being derived from said self cap code; storing binary-coded decimal numerals representative of said self cap code in a second location of said memory; and displaying the self cap code represented by the binary-coded decimal numerals stored in said second location of said memory on the display of said pager receiver in response to activation of said read key when no calling signal is being received by the pager receiver.
Claim 7
Independent Claim 161 words
A method of displaying a self cap code of a pager receiver responsive to a "POCSAG code" for receiving a calling signal, said paging receiver having a memory, a read key and a display, said method comprising the steps of: storing address data and frame data in a first location of said memory for enabling said pager receiver to receive said calling signal, said frame data representing a frame of said "POCSAG code" in which said address data is transmitted to said pager receiver, said address data and said frame data being derived from said self cap code; storing binary-coded decimal numerals representative of said self cap code in a second location of said memory; and displaying the self cap code represented by the binary-coded decimal numerals stored in said second location of said memory on the display of said pager receiver in response to activation of said read key when no calling signal is being received by the pager receiver.
Claim 8
Dependent Claim 100 words
The method as claimed in claim 5 further comprising the steps of: storing binary-coded decimal numerals of a second self cap code in a third location of said memory; reading out said binary-coded decimal numerals stored in said third location of said memory in response to said read key being continuously activated for a predetermined time; and displaying said second cap code represented by the binary-coded decimal numerals stored in said third location of said memory on the display of said pager receiver in response to said binary-coded decimal numerals being read out from said third location of said memory.
Claim 9
Dependent Claim 57 words
The method as claimed in claim 5, wherein said displaying step further comprises the steps of: reading out said binary-coded decimal numerals stored in said second location of said memory in response to activation of said read key; and converting said binary-coded decimal numerals to a decimal value wherein said decimal value is said self cap code.
