Processor system comprising a processor and a memory field for containing a computer interface

Claim 1

A processor system comprising a processor and a memory field for implementing a computer interface, the interface having a plurality of display elements, each of the display elements representing a function, a first display element in the plurality of display elements being directly displayed on a screen in response to a first adjustable element code being allocated to this first display element and having a first value, the first display element being directly displayed on the screen in case the first display element is to be displayed continuously during a length of time and independent of whether or not the first display element has been activated, and a second display element in the plurality of display elements being selectively displayed on a screen in response to a second adjustable element code being allocated to this second display element and having a second value, the second display element being selectively displayed on the screen in case the second display element is not to be displayed continuously during the length of time but is to be continuously displayed only after the second display element has been activated, the processor system being adapted for: receiving a user code from a user, generating a plurality of adjustable element codes in response to the user code wherein one of the plurality of adjustable element codes has the first value and is allocated to the first display element and another one of the plurality of adjustable element codes has the second value and is allocated to the second display element, generating further element codes in response to the user code, each one of the further element codes being allocated to a corresponding one of the plurality of the display elements and having a value representing whether the corresponding one display element is enabled or disabled, and displaying or not displaying individual ones of the plurality of display elements on the screen in response to values of the corresponding individual ones of the further element codes, generating one of a plurality of additional element codes in response to the user code, the one of the plurality of additional element codes being allocated to a transmission element and setting an attribute of a transmission function to be performed by the processor system, and storing in a memory location associated with the user code and within a memory associated with the processor system, a new value for one of a group consisting of the adjustable element codes, the further element codes and the additional element for subsequent use in controlling display of an associated one of the display elements or setting the attribute of the transmission function.
