　＜通信システムの処理動作例＞
　次に、図６を参照しながら、本実施形態の通信システムの処理動作例について説明する。図６は、小型通信端末１と通信を行う第１～第３の通信端末１１～１３の端末識別子やユーザ情報を小型通信端末１に登録する処理動作例を示している。端末識別子やユーザ情報の登録は、小型通信端末１の通信を管理する１つの通信端末からのみ可能になっており、本実施形態では、管理者の使用する第１の通信端末１１のみが端末識別子やユーザ情報の登録を可能にしている。 <Processing operation example of communication system>
Next, a processing operation example of the communication system according to the present embodiment will be described with reference to FIG. FIG. 6 shows a processing operation example in which the terminal identifiers and user information of the first to third communication terminals 11 to 13 communicating with the small communication terminal 1 are registered in the small communication terminal 1. Registration of the terminal identifier and user information is possible only from one communication terminal that manages the communication of the small communication terminal 1, and in this embodiment, only the first communication terminal 11 used by the administrator is the terminal identifier. And user information can be registered.
　まず、管理者の使用する第１の通信端末１１は、サーバ２０に接続し、本実施形態の通信システムのサービスを使用するためのユーザ登録を行う（ステップS1）。ユーザ登録としては、管理者を特定するためのユーザＩＤやパスワード等をサーバ２０の記憶部２０２に登録する。また、第１の通信端末１１は、小型通信端末１の第１小型端末識別子と、第１の通信端末１１の第１端末識別子と、を紐付けてサーバ２０の記憶部２０２のリストに登録する（ステップS2）。これにより、サーバ２０は、小型通信端末１の第１小型端末識別子と、第１の通信端末１１の第１端末識別子と、を紐付けてリストに登録して管理することができる（ステップS3）。サーバ２０は、第１小型端末識別子と第１端末識別子とのリストへの登録が完了した後に、第１小型端末識別子の小型通信端末１に第１端末識別子を送信し、小型通信端末１の記憶部３に第１端末識別子を登録する（ステップS4）。なお、ステップS4の処理は、例えば、小型通信端末１の電源がＯＮになった場合に、小型通信端末１がサーバ２０に接続し、小型通信端末１の第１小型端末識別子に紐付けられた第１端末識別子をサーバ２０から取得し、小型通信端末１の記憶部３に第１端末識別子を登録するようにしても良い。 First, the first communication terminal 11 used by the administrator connects to the server 20 and performs user registration for using the service of the communication system of the present embodiment (step S1). As user registration, a user ID, a password, and the like for specifying an administrator are registered in the storage unit 202 of the server 20. Further, the first communication terminal 11 associates the first small terminal identifier of the small communication terminal 1 with the first terminal identifier of the first communication terminal 11 and registers it in the list of the storage unit 202 of the server 20. (Step S2). Thereby, the server 20 can associate and register the first small terminal identifier of the small communication terminal 1 and the first terminal identifier of the first communication terminal 11 in the list (step S3). . After registration of the first small terminal identifier and the first terminal identifier in the list is completed, the server 20 transmits the first terminal identifier to the small communication terminal 1 having the first small terminal identifier, and stores the small communication terminal 1 in the memory. The first terminal identifier is registered in the unit 3 (step S4). The process in step S4 is performed when the small communication terminal 1 is connected to the server 20 and associated with the first small terminal identifier of the small communication terminal 1, for example, when the small communication terminal 1 is powered on. The first terminal identifier may be acquired from the server 20 and the first terminal identifier may be registered in the storage unit 3 of the small communication terminal 1.
　次に、第１の通信端末１１は、サーバ２０に接続し、小型通信端末１と通信を行う第１～第３の通信端末１１～１３のユーザ情報の登録処理を行う（ステップS5）。サーバ２０は、第１の通信端末１１の第１端末識別子が第１小型端末識別子に紐付けて記憶部２０２にリストとして登録されているため、第１の通信端末１１の登録処理を許可する。第１の通信端末１１の登録処理が許可されると、第１の通信端末１１は、第１の通信端末１１を使用する管理者のユーザネーム、画像データ、ユーザ色データ等のユーザ情報をサーバ２０のリストに登録する。このリストは、小型通信端末１専用のリストであり、登録処理が許可された第１の通信端末１１のみが小型通信端末１専用のリストの設定変更を行うことが可能になっている。また、第１の通信端末１１は、小型通信端末１を使用するユーザのユーザネーム、画像データ、ユーザ色データ等のユーザ情報をサーバ２０のリストに登録する。また、小型通信端末１と通信を行う第２の通信端末１１の第２端末識別子、第２の通信端末１１を使用するユーザのユーザネーム、画像データ、ユーザ色データ等のユーザ情報をサーバ２０のリストに登録する。また、小型通信端末１と通信を行う第３の通信端末１３の第３端末識別子、第３の通信端末１３を使用するユーザのユーザネーム、画像データ、ユーザ色データ等のユーザ情報をサーバ２０のリストに登録する。これにより、サーバ２０は、図３に示すように、小型通信端末１と通信を行う第１～第３の通信端末１１～１３のユーザ情報をリストに登録して管理することができる（ステップS6）。ユーザ情報としては、少なくともユーザネームをサーバ２０のリストに登録する。これにより、サーバ２０は、小型通信端末１や第１～第３の通信端末１１～１３を使用するユーザのユーザネームを特定することができる。 Next, the first communication terminal 11 connects to the server 20 and performs registration processing of user information of the first to third communication terminals 11 to 13 that communicate with the small communication terminal 1 (step S5). Since the first terminal identifier of the first communication terminal 11 is associated with the first small terminal identifier and registered as a list in the storage unit 202, the server 20 permits the registration process of the first communication terminal 11. When the registration process of the first communication terminal 11 is permitted, the first communication terminal 11 stores user information such as a user name, image data, and user color data of an administrator who uses the first communication terminal 11 as a server. Register in 20 lists. This list is a list dedicated to the small communication terminal 1, and only the first communication terminal 11 for which the registration process is permitted can change the setting of the list dedicated to the small communication terminal 1. Further, the first communication terminal 11 registers user information such as a user name, image data, and user color data of the user who uses the small communication terminal 1 in the list of the server 20. In addition, user information such as the second terminal identifier of the second communication terminal 11 that communicates with the small communication terminal 1, the user name of the user who uses the second communication terminal 11, image data, and user color data is stored in the server 20. Register to the list.

A message screen 41, a second message screen 51, a third message screen 61, a message selection screen 80, a stamp selection screen 90, and an outgoing screen 100 are shown. Each screen is sequentially displayed on the display unit 4 by performing a predetermined operation for displaying each screen on the display unit 4.
　小型通信端末１の制御部２は、電源がＯＮの状態の場合は、現在時刻を表す時計画面３０を生成し、ホーム画面として時計画面３０を表示部４に表示する。現在時刻は、例えば、小型通信端末１に搭載された時計機能を用いて取得する。なお、時計画面３０を表示部４に表示した状態で小型通信端末１において所定の処理が規定時間実行されない場合は、省電力モードに移行し、表示部４に表示した時計画面３０を非表示にすることも可能である。また、表示部４が液晶の場合は、バックライトを消すようにすることも可能である。所定の処理としては、例えば、小型通信端末１を操作する処理や、着信などの処理があげられる。なお、小型通信端末１で所定の処理が実行された場合は、表示部４に時計画面３０を表示する。 When the power is on, the control unit 2 of the small communication terminal 1 generates a clock screen 30 representing the current time and displays the clock screen 30 on the display unit 4 as a home screen. The current time is acquired using, for example, a clock function installed in the small communication terminal 1. When the predetermined processing is not executed for the specified time in the small communication terminal 1 with the clock screen 30 displayed on the display unit 4, the mode shifts to the power saving mode and the clock screen 30 displayed on the display unit 4 is not displayed. It is also possible to do. When the display unit 4 is a liquid crystal, the backlight can be turned off. Examples of the predetermined process include a process for operating the small communication terminal 1 and a process such as an incoming call. When a predetermined process is executed in the small communication terminal 1, the clock screen 30 is displayed on the display unit 4.
　小型通信端末１の制御部２は、表示部４に時計画面３０が表示された状態で、時計画面３０の次の画面に遷移するための第１の所定のユーザ操作を検出した場合は、第１の通信端末１１と通信を行う際に使用する第１の通信端末１１専用の第１の通信メニュー画面４０を表示部４に表示する。次の画面に遷移するための第１の所定のユーザ操作としては、例えば、表示部４上で左横方向へのスワイプ操作があげられる。また、左横方向へのフリック操作があげられる。なお、例示した方向は一例であり、例えば、右横方向や上縦方向等の任意の方向にしても構わない。本実施形態では、表示部４上で左横方向へのスワイプ操作が行われた場合に、現在の画面が左方向にスクロールして表示部４から消え、次の画面が表示部４の右側から左方向にスクロールしながら現れて、次の画面に遷移する。画面遷移する場合は、現在の画面と次の画面との一部が両方表示されている状態で表示を固定することはなく、どちらかの画面のみが表示されている状態で表示を固定することが望ましい。第１の通信メニュー画面４０は、小型通信端末１と第１の通信端末１１との間でのメッセージ履歴を表示する第１のメッセージ画面４１上に、第１端末識別子に紐付けられた画像データやユーザネームを基に作成した第１のユーザアイコン４２を重ねて表示画面を構成している。第１のメッセージ画面４１上に第１のユーザアイコン４２を重ねて第１の通信メニュー画面４０を構成することで、表示部４に表示された第１の通信メニュー画面４０がだれと通信を行うための画面なのかを容易に把握することができる。第１のユーザアイコン４２は、第１の通信メニュー画面４０の大半の面積を占める大きさで構成する。例えば、第１の通信メニュー画面４０の５０％以上の面積を占める大きさで第１の通信メニュー画面４０の中央に位置するように構成する。この場合、第１の通信メニュー画面４０の第１のユーザアイコン４２以外の部分は、第１のメッセージ画面４１を表示するか、または、第１のメッセージ画面４１を半透明のフィルタ越しに見えるようにぼかして表示する。また、第１のユーザアイコン４２を、第１の通信メニュー画面４０の略１００％の面積を占める大きさで表示する場合は、第１の通信メニュー画面４０は、第１のユーザアイコン４２のみで表示画面を構成するようにしてもよい。なお、第１のユーザアイコン４２は、第１端末識別子に紐付けられた画像データとユーザネームとが記憶部３に記憶されている場合は、記憶部３に記憶されている画像データを基に作成した第１のユーザアイコン４２を第１の通信メニュー画面４０に優先的に表示する。また、第１端末識別子に紐付けられた画像データが記憶部３に記憶されていない場合は、記憶部３に記憶されているユーザネームを基に作成した第１のユーザアイコン４２を第１の通信メニュー画面４０に表示する。本実施形態では、第１端末識別子に紐付けられた画像データとユーザネームとが記憶部３に記憶されているため、記憶部３に記憶されている画像データを基に作成した第１のユーザアイコン４２を第１の通信メニュー画面４０に表示する。なお、第１のユーザアイコン４２は、第１端末識別子に紐付けられたユーザ色データを用いて作成される。本実施形態では、記憶部３に記憶されている画像データで作成した第１のユーザアイコン４２の外枠を記憶部３に記憶されているユーザ色データを用いて作成している。第１端末識別子に紐付けられたユーザ色データは、「ピンク」であるため、第１のユーザアイコン４２の外枠を「ピンク」の色データで表示する。このように、本実施形態の小型通信端末１の制御部２は、通信相手を特定するための画像データとユーザネームと色データとを通信相手の端末識別子に対応付けて記憶可能な記憶部３を参照し、通信相手の端末識別子に対応付けられた画像データが記憶部３に記憶されている場合は、その画像データと、通信相手の端末識別子に対応付けられた色データと、を用いて、ユーザアイコンを作成する。また、通信相手の端末識別子に対応付けられた画像データが記憶部３に記憶されていない場合は、通信相手の端末識別子に対応付けられたユーザネームと、通信相手の端末識別子に対応付けられた色データと、を用いて、ユーザアイコンを作成する。 When the control unit 2 of the small communication terminal 1 detects the first predetermined user operation for transitioning to the next screen of the clock screen 30 while the clock screen 30 is displayed on the display unit 4, The first communication menu screen 40 dedicated to the first communication terminal 11 used when communicating with one communication terminal 11 is displayed on the display unit 4. Examples of the first predetermined user operation for transitioning to the next screen include a swipe operation in the left lateral direction on the display unit 4. Further, a flick operation in the left lateral direction can be given. In addition, the illustrated direction is an example, and may be an arbitrary direction such as a right horizontal direction or an upper vertical direction. In the present embodiment, when a swipe operation in the left lateral direction is performed on the display unit 4, the current screen scrolls left and disappears from the display unit 4, and the next screen is displayed from the right side of the display unit 4. Appears while scrolling to the left and transitions to the next screen. When changing screens, do not fix the display when both the current screen and the next screen are displayed, and fix the display when only one of the screens is displayed. Is desirable. The first communication menu screen 40 is image data associated with the first terminal identifier on the first message screen 41 that displays the message history between the small communication terminal 1 and the first communication terminal 11. And the first user icon 42 created based on the user name is overlapped to form a display screen. By configuring the first communication menu screen 40 by superimposing the first user icon 42 on the first message screen 41, the first communication menu screen 40 displayed on the display unit 4 communicates with whom. It is possible to easily grasp whether the screen is for the purpose. The first user icon 42 has a size that occupies most of the area of the first communication menu screen 40. For example, the first communication menu screen 40 is configured to have a size that occupies 50% or more of the area of the first communication menu screen 40 and is located in the center of the first communication menu screen 40. In this case, the part other than the first user icon 42 of the first communication menu screen 40 displays the first message screen 41 or the first message screen 41 seems to be seen through a translucent filter. The image is blurred. When the first user icon 42 is displayed in a size that occupies approximately 100% of the area of the first communication menu screen 40, the first communication menu screen 40 includes only the first user icon 42. A display screen may be configured. The first user icon 42 is based on the image data stored in the storage unit 3 when the image data associated with the first terminal identifier and the user name are stored in the storage unit 3. The created first user icon 42 is preferentially displayed on the first communication menu screen 40. If the image data associated with the first terminal identifier is not stored in the storage unit 3, the first user icon 42 created based on the user name stored in the storage unit 3 is displayed as the first user icon 42.

　＜本実施形態の小型通信端末１の作用・効果＞
　このように、本実施形態の小型通信端末１は、通信相手を特定するためのユーザアイコン４２、５２、６２を含んで構成する通信相手専用の通信メニュー画面４０、５０、６０を表示部４に順次表示する。そして、通信メニュー画面４０、５０、５０を表示部４に表示した状態で所定の条件を満足した場合に、通信相手と送受信したメッセージの履歴を表示する通信相手専用のメッセージ画面４１、５１、６１を表示部４に表示する。このため、表示部４の表示領域が小さい場合でも、通信相手を特定し易くすることができる。 <Operation / Effect of Small Communication Terminal 1 of the Present Embodiment>
As described above, the small communication terminal 1 according to the present embodiment displays the communication menu screens 40, 50, and 60 dedicated to the communication partner configured to include the user icons 42, 52, and 62 for specifying the communication partner on the display unit 4. Display sequentially. When a predetermined condition is satisfied with the communication menu screens 40, 50, 50 displayed on the display unit 4, a message screen 41, 51, 61 dedicated to the communication partner that displays a history of messages transmitted / received to / from the communication partner. Is displayed on the display unit 4. For this reason, even when the display area of the display unit 4 is small, it is possible to easily identify the communication partner.
　また、通信相手を特定するためのユーザアイコン４２、５２、６２を含んで構成する通信相手専用の通信メニュー画面４０、５０、６０を表示部４に表示した後に、通信相手専用のメッセージ画面４１、５１、６１を表示するため、メッセージ画面４１、５１、６１に表示されるメッセージの履歴がだれとのメッセージの履歴なのかを容易に把握することができる。また、メッセージ画面４１、５１、６１に多くのメッセージを表示することができる。 Further, after displaying the communication menu screens 40, 50, 60 dedicated to the communication partner configured to include the user icons 42, 52, 62 for specifying the communication partner on the display unit 4, the message screen 41, dedicated to the communication partner, Since 51 and 61 are displayed, it is possible to easily grasp who the message history displayed on the message screens 41, 51 and 61 is the message history with whom. In addition, many messages can be displayed on the message screens 41, 51, 61.
　なお、上述した実施形態では、図７に示すメッセージ画面４１、５１、６１に表示するメッセージ履歴は、個々のメッセージ同士が重ならないようにしている。しかし、図８、図９に示すように、個々のメッセージ同士をメッセージの履歴順に重ねてメッセージ画面７１に表示することが好ましい。例えば、メッセージ履歴中のメッセージの吹き出しが、前のメッセージの１行目は表示されているが、２行目以降の吹き出しの下部には重なるように、メッセージ画面７１を表示する。これにより、メッセージ画面７１上に多くのメッセージを表示することができる。なお、個々のメッセージ同士をメッセージの履歴順に重ねて表示する場合は、ユーザが閲覧したいメッセージの内容が全てメッセージ画面７１上に表示されるようにする必要がある。この場合、例えば、図８に示すように、メッセージ画面７１の中央または画面の下方などの所定の領域に表示されるメッセージの内容が全てメッセージ画面７１上に表示されるようにする。図８では、図８（Ａ）に示すように、メッセージ画面７１の中央に表示される１つのメッセージの内容が全てメッセージ画面７１上に表示された状態でメッセージを上方向にスクロール操作することで、図８（Ｂ）に示すように、図８（Ａ）の中央に表示されていたメッセージが上方向に移動し、メッセージの２行目以降が次のメッセージの吹き出しの下に隠れ、次のメッセージがメッセージ画面７１の中央に位置した場合に、そのメッセージの内容が全てメッセージ画面７１上に表示されるようにしている。また、図９では、図９（Ａ）に示すように、最初は、個々のメッセージ同士が重なってメッセージ画面７１上に表示されており、ユーザが閲覧したいメッセージの吹き出しにタップした場合に、そのタップされた吹き出しに含まれるメッセージの内容が全てメッセージ画面７１上に表示されるようにしている。このように、個々のメッセージ同士を重ねて表示部４に表示することで、表示部４の表示領域が小さい場合でも、メッセージ画面７１上に多くのメッセージを表示することができ、前後のメッセージの遣り取りを把握し易くすることができる。 In the above-described embodiment, the message histories displayed on the message screens 41, 51, 61 shown in FIG. 7 do not overlap each other. However, as shown in FIGS. 8 and 9, it is preferable to display the messages on the message screen 71 by superimposing individual messages in the order of the history of the messages. For example, the message screen 71 is displayed so that the message balloon in the message history is displayed in the first line of the previous message but overlaps the lower part of the balloons in the second and subsequent lines. Thereby, many messages can be displayed on the message screen 71. When individual messages are displayed in the order of the history of messages, it is necessary to display all the contents of messages that the user wants to browse on the message screen 71. In this case, for example, as shown in FIG. 8, all message contents displayed in a predetermined area such as the center of the message screen 71 or the lower part of the screen are displayed on the message screen 71. In FIG. 8, as shown in FIG. 8A, by scrolling the message upward while all the contents of one message displayed at the center of the message screen 71 are displayed on the message screen 71. As shown in FIG. 8 (B), the message displayed in the center of FIG. 8 (A) moves upward, and the second and subsequent lines of the message are hidden under the balloon of the next message. When the message is located at the center of the message screen 71, the contents of the message are all displayed on the message screen 71. In FIG. 9, as shown in FIG. 9A, each message is initially displayed on the message screen 71 so as to overlap when the user taps on the balloon of the message that the user wants to view. All the contents of the message included in the tapped balloon are displayed on the message screen 71. In this way, by displaying individual messages in a superimposed manner on the display unit 4, even when the display area of the display unit 4 is small, a large number of messages can be displayed on the message screen 71. This makes it easy to grasp the exchange.
　なお、未読メッセージが記憶部３に複数記憶されている場合は、例えば、図１０（Ａ）に示すように、表示部４に最初に表示されるメッセージ画面７１上に、未読メッセージの中で最も古い未読メッセージが表示されるようにする。この場合、最も古い未読メッセージをメッセージ画面７１の上部に位置するようにしたり、メッセージ画面７１の中央に位置するようにしたりする。これにより、表示部４にメッセージ画面７１を表示した際に、最も古い未読メッセージが表示されるため、ユーザが未読メッセージを探索することなく閲覧することができる。なお、メッセージアイコン、スタンプアイコン、電話アイコン等の通信相手と通信を行う際に使用するアイコンは、図１０（Ｂ）に示すように、最新のメッセージの下に表示し、全てのメッセージを既読した際に、メッセージアイコン、スタンプアイコン、電話アイコン等の通信に使用するアイコンをタップできるようにする。このように、メッセージアイコン、スタンプアイコン、電話アイコン等の通信相手と通信を行う際に使用するアイコンを最新のメッセージの近傍に表示することで、未読メッセージを見ずに、電話やメッセージを発信することを防止することができる。 When a plurality of unread messages are stored in the storage unit 3, for example, as shown in FIG. 10A, the most unread message is displayed on the message screen 71 first displayed on the display unit 4. Make old unread messages appear. In this case, the oldest unread message is positioned at the top of the message screen 71 or is positioned at the center of the message screen 71. Thereby, when the message screen 71 is displayed on the display unit 4, the oldest unread message is displayed, so that the user can browse without searching for the unread message. As shown in FIG. 10B, icons used when communicating with a communication partner such as a message icon, a stamp icon, and a telephone icon are displayed below the latest message, and all messages have been read. When it is done, an icon used for communication such as a message icon, a stamp icon, a telephone icon, etc. can be tapped. In this way, by displaying icons used when communicating with communication partners such as message icons, stamp icons, telephone icons, etc. in the vicinity of the latest message, it is possible to send a call or message without seeing an unread message. This can be prevented.
