1. A mobile terminal comprising:
- a terminal body;
a wireless communication unit configured to perform wireless communication;
a touchscreen display unit configured to switch between an inactivated state in which illumination is not applied to the touchscreen display unit and an activated state in which illumination is applied to the touchscreen display unit; and
a controller configured to;
receive a touch pattern input while the touchscreen display unit is in the inactivated state,receive a pre-set tapping input while the touchscreen display unit is in the inactivated state, andin response to receiving the pre-set tapping input within a first predetermined time period after the touch pattern input, switch the touchscreen display unit from the inactivated state to the activated state, execute a function corresponding to the touch pattern input and display an execution screen of the function on the touchscreen display unit,wherein the function is varied based on a shape or a pattern of the touch pattern input,wherein the pre-set tapping input includes at least a first tap and a second tap, the second tap being received within a second predetermined time period after the first tap,wherein the function corresponding to the touch pattern input includes;
dividing the touchscreen display unit into a first region and a second region; and
activating the first region based on the pre-set tapping input while maintaining the second region in the inactivated state, andwherein a location and a size of the first region are varied according to a touch track of the received touch pattern input.

16. A method of controlling a mobile terminal, the method comprising:
-
receiving, via a controller of the mobile terminal, a touch pattern input while a touchscreen display unit is in an inactivated state in which illumination is not applied to the touch screen display unit of the mobile terminal; receiving, via the controller, a pre-set tapping input while the touchscreen display unit is in the inactivated state; and in response to receiving the pre-set tapping input within a first predetermined time period after the touch pattern input, switching, via the controller, the touchscreen display unit from the inactivated state to an activated state in which illumination is applied to the touchscreen display unit, executing a function corresponding to the touch pattern input and displaying an execution screen of the function on the touchscreen display unit, wherein the function is varied based on a shape or a pattern of the touch pattern input, wherein the pre-set tapping input includes at least a first tap and a second tap, the second tap being received within a second predetermined time period after the first tap, wherein the switching the touchscreen display unit from the inactivated state to the activated state comprises; dividing the touchscreen display unit into a first region and a second region; and activating the first region based on the pre-set tapping input while maintaining the second region in the inactivated state, and wherein a location and a size of the first region are varied according to a touch track of the received touch pattern input. - View Dependent Claims (17)
