Abstract

Abstract Disclosed herein is a new and improved wireless remote controller capable of remote controlling each of several devices ( 4, 5 and 6) under control into each mode of operation without requiring any switching operation for switching among said devices under control and thus having no device switching key mounted thereon. The wireless remote controller has a plurality of operation mode selection keys (2) and is designed to operate in such manner that when the controller is directed toward one of the devices under control and any one of said operation mode selection keys is depressed, a corresponding operation mode signal is generated and transmitted to said device under control. The operation mode signal comprises a series of consecutive signal components for operating all the devices under control. Said device under control receives only the associated one of said signal components of the operation mode signal and is put into operation in the mode selected by said key.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 5
Claim 1
Independent Claim 99 words
A wireless remote controller to control the operation of several devices comprising plurality of operation mode selection keys and a signal transmitter designed to operate in such a manner that when any one of said keys is depressed an operation mode signal is transmitted which signal corresponds to said operation mode selection key depressed characterized in that said operation mode signal including a series of consecutive signal components where each signal component is received by only one of said several devices whereby each device may be operated in the same mode corresponding to said depressed operation mode selection key.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 99 words
A wireless remote controller to control the operation of several devices comprising plurality of operation mode selection keys and a signal transmitter designed to operate in such a manner that when any one of said keys is depressed an operation mode signal is transmitted which signal corresponds to said operation mode selection key depressed characterized in that said operation mode signal including a series of consecutive signal components where each signal component is received by only one of said several devices whereby each device may be operated in the same mode corresponding to said depressed operation mode selection key.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 25 words
A wireless remote controller as claimed in claim 1, where said signal components include a first 12 bit code of binary high and low states.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 39 words
A wireless remote controller as claimed in claim 2 where said signal components also includes a second 12 bit code which is inserted before said first 12 bit code to distinguish and identify each one of said several devices.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim 25 words
A wireless remote controller as claimed in claim 3 including means to program the order of said high and low states of said signal components.
