Method for visualizing the input and display components of terminal equipment and corresponding terminal equipment
First Claim
1. A method for visualizing the input and display components of terminal equipment, in which the terminal equipment includes the said input component, for controlling the operations of the terminal equipment, and the display component, and in which terminal equipment there are at least two states, of which in the first, open, state, the terminal equipment implements the operations directed to it through the input component, and in which second, locked, state, the terminal equipment does not implement the operations directed to it through the input component, but instead implements an indicator effect in the input and/or the display component, in order to visualize the input and/or the display component, characterized in that the said indicator effect is implemented with a short duration, for example, of 0.1-5 seconds and/or with a low luminance, for example, of 0.1-5 cd/m2.

Abstract
The invention relates to a method for visualizing the input and display components of terminal equipment. The terminal equipment includes the said input component, for controlling the operations of the terminal equipment, and the display component. The terminal equipment (10) has at least two states, of which in the first, open, state, the terminal equipment implements the operations directed to it through the input component, and in which second, locked, state, the terminal equipment does not implement the operations directed to it through the input component, but instead implements an indicator effect in the input and/or the display component, in order to visualize the input and/or the display component.

1. A method for visualizing the input and display components of terminal equipment, in which the terminal equipment includes the said input component, for controlling the operations of the terminal equipment, and the display component, and in which terminal equipment there are at least two states, of which
in the first, open, state, the terminal equipment implements the operations directed to it through the input component, and in which second, locked, state, the terminal equipment does not implement the operations directed to it through the input component, but instead implements an indicator effect in the input and/or the display component, in order to visualize the input and/or the display component, characterized in that the said indicator effect is implemented with a short duration, for example, of 0.1-5 seconds and/or with a low luminance, for example, of 0.1-5 cd/m2.
- 8. Terminal equipment, in which a keypad component and/or a display component is arranged that can be illuminated by lighting means and in which the said keypad component is arranged to be locked, in such a way that the terminal equipment will not implement the operations directed to it, but instead an operation, which is arranged to create an indicator effect in order to visualize the keypad component, characterized in that means are arranged in the terminal equipment for implementing the said indicator effect in the lighting means, with a short duration, such as, for example, 0.1-5 seconds, and/or with a low luminance, such as, for example, 0.1-5 cd/m2.
