Control device and method for a local and non-local communications device connected to a network
First Claim
1. A device for initiating a transmission of data from a non-local communications device to a local communications device connected via a network to the non-local communications device, the transmission-initiating device comprising an interface with the local communications device, at least one information storage medium containing locally and non-locally relevant information, and a control element, said interface being disconnectable and, when said control element is being operated, the transmission-initiating device serving for generating at least one control signal for the local communications device, and for transmitting locally and non-locally relevant information to the local communications device.

Abstract
A device for initiating a transmission of data from a non-local communications device to a local communications device connected via a network to the non-local communications device, the transmission-initiating device comprising an interface with the local communications device, at least one information storage medium containing locally and non-locally relevant information, and a control element, the interface being disconnectable and, when the control element is being operated, the transmission-initiating device serving for generating at least one control signal for the local communications device, and for transmitting locally and non-locally relevant information to the local communications device; and a method of operating the transmission-initiating device.

13. A method for transmitting data from a non-local communications device in a network to a local communications device having a device for initiating a transmission of data from the non-local communications device to the local communications device connected via the network to the non-local communications device, which comprises transmitting a signal from the transmission-initiating device to the local communications device, interchanging control signals between the local communications device and a non-local communications device, transferring data from a non-local communications device to the local communications device, and transmitting information with non-local relevance from the transmission-initiating device to the local communications device.
