択させる。Data from the data input source DIP is stored in the storage device MEM via the interface circuit INT under the control of the central processing unit CPU. Next, the stored contents are read out under the control of the central processing unit CPU, and are processed by the deflector DIF and the brightness modulation circuit CM via the character generator CHG and line segment generator LG.
It performs deflection and brightness modulation to display characters and figures on a cathode ray tube (CRT). Conventional devices are inconvenient to handle, especially when the screen displaying characters and graphics has a hierarchical structure. As shown in Figure 3, for example, when displaying data stored in a storage device regarding air conditioning equipment in a large building, the initial screen is a top-level screen that allows you to specify what data you want about the air conditioning equipment. 20 is displayed.
These include temperature/humidity change data 21, equipment layout diagram 22, list of persons in charge of details 23, etc. To select which of these, set the display number column 24 of each item to high brightness, and set it to the first The operator makes the selection by a method such as touching it with the light pen LTP shown in the figure.

・Can be switched to. That is, when the equipment layout diagram 22 is selected on the screen 20, the sub-concept screen 30 switches to, for example, a diagram of each floor, 40 is a diagram of the east side of the 3rd floor, 50 is a diagram of the telephone exchange machine room on the 3rd floor, etc. Is displayed.

示装置を提供することにある。This switching only allows hierarchically structured data to be selected sequentially into lower-level concepts, but it is not possible to move up to the related higher-level concept even by one step. This is extremely inconvenient for the operator as it is necessary to sequentially switch to screens for lower-level concepts. SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION An object of the present invention is to improve the above-mentioned drawbacks and to provide a screen display device that has a simple configuration and operation, stores a predetermined screen in a screen storage area, and immediately displays it again when desired.

応した位置にある表示マーク部DPMを指示する。In the main configuration diagram of the block shown in FIG. 2, the same reference numerals as in FIG. It's okay to be in Further, a storage instruction mark section MCM and a display mark section DPM are provided in correspondence with each other, for example, on the lower side of the surface of the cathode ray tube. These mark portions are designated as "marks" on a part of the surface of the cathode ray tube, as shown in the figure, and the addresses of these locations are determined. For a predetermined screen, for example, the first screen, a storage instruction mark section MCM and an instruction mark section DPM are provided below the storage instruction mark section MCM. The typical display screen area of a cathode ray tube is therefore smaller than before. When you are currently displaying a drawing with a hierarchical structure, etc.
When there is a screen that you want to remember because it is expected to be displayed again,
The operator uses the light pen LTP to indicate one of the memory instruction mark sections MCM of the cathode ray tube, and the central processing unit CPU
The screen data storage program is run. The central processing unit CPU detects the photoelectric detection signal from the light pen LTP, and stores basic data related to the screen being displayed, for example in the main memory MEM, to the screen storage area PMA corresponding to the position address of the storage instruction mark part MCM. Necessary data such as addresses, screen codes, page zeta, etc. are pulled out from the storage device and stored in the storage area of the screen storage area PMA. The operator separates the light pen LTP from the cathode ray tube and performs the following operation. Next, if there is a screen you want to memorize, touch the adjacent memory instruction mark MCM with the light pen L.
When an instruction is given using TP and the storage program is operated, data is stored in the screen storage area PMA in the same manner as described above. When switching and redisplaying the screen currently being displayed on the screen stored in the screen storage area PMA, the operator points the light pen LTP to the display mark DPM located at the position corresponding to the storage instruction mark MCM of the cathode ray tube. do.

ともできる。The central processing unit CPU detects the photoelectric detection signal, reads out the screen storage area at a predetermined address, and then reads out the signal of the desired screen from the main storage device MEM based on the basic data of the screen, and switches and displays the screen. In addition to the light pen LTP, the operator can also use the cursor on the screen.

ータの操作も簡便になる。Therefore, if the mark on the cathode ray tube is displayed in color, it will be more noticeable and easier to operate. The data stored in the screen storage area is determined whether new data is written to the same area or
It will be protected until a clear operation is performed, such as on a blank screen.
In this way, according to the present invention, with a simple configuration, the operator can arbitrarily memorize the screen that he/she wishes to display again, so to speak, and then immediately switch to it when redisplaying it. , operator operations become easier.
