Process for remote communication between a command transmitter and a command receiver
First Claim
1. A process for remote communication between a command transmitter (2) and a command receiver (4) operating a garage door (10) or gate actuator (9), via a command repeater (3) furnished with means for receiving signals (21), with means for sending signals (22), with a processing unit (23) and with a memory (24) comprising an identifier of the command repeater (3), which process comprises the following steps:
- generation and transmission of a signal comprising an identifier of the transmitter (2) and a control command, from the transmitter (2) to the command repeater (3), reception of this signal by the command repeater (3), recognition of the identifier contained in the signal, modification of the identifier by the command repeater (3), transmission of a modified signal comprising a modified identifier and the command, from the command repeater (3) to the command receiver (4), reception of the modified signal by the command receiver (4), recognition of the modified identifier contained in this signal.

Abstract
A system for activating an object actuating system coupled to a movable object such as a gate or garage door includes a user command transmitter that is manipulable by a person to generate a signal representing an identification and a command. A repeater receives the signals from the command transmitter and in turn, in the presence of a valid ID, sends a command signal to the object actuating system, which in turn moves the object only if the ID from the repeater (which can be different from the ID from the command transmitter) is valid.

4. A process for configuring a control device (1) comprising a command transmitter (2) furnished with means for sending signals (6), a command repeater (3) furnished with means for receiving signals (21), with means for sending signals (22), with a processing unit (23) and with a memory (24) and a command receiver operating a garage door (10) or gate actuator (9), allowing remote communication between the command transmitter (2) and the command receiver (4) via the command repeater (2), wherein the learning of identification codes comprises a communication between the command transmitter (2) and the command repeater (3), on the one hand, and a communication between the command repeater (3) and the command receiver (4), on the other hand, the identification codes of the command transmitter and of the command repeater being different.
