Image display apparatus and method of setting up the same
First Claim
1. An image display apparatus connected to an external unit, comprising:
- a receiving section which receives remote-control codes sent from a remote-control terminal;
a memory which stores conversion information that causes identification information about remote-control code groups acceptable to the external unit to correspond to the external unit;
a converting section which converts the remote-control codes received by the receiving section into remote-control codes acceptable to the external unit on the basis of the conversion information;
a transmitting section which transmits the remote-control codes created by the converting section to the external unit;
a detecting section which detects a change in the state of the external unit corresponding to a specific operation by use of the remote-control terminal;
a setting-up section which, when a change in the state of the external unit has been sensed, determines identification information about the remote-control code group including the remote-control code making the change in the state, creates the conversion information so as to correspond to the external unit, and stores the conversion information into the memory; and
a control section which, when the conversion information is not stored in the memory, creates the conversion information and stores the information into the memory.

Abstract
An image display apparatus connected to external unit, comprises receiving section receiving remote-control codes sent from remote-control terminal, memory storing conversion information causing identification information about remote-control code groups acceptable to external unit to correspond to external unit, converting section converting remote-control codes received by receiving section into remote-control codes acceptable to external unit on basis of conversion information, transmitting section transmitting remote-control codes, detecting section detecting change in state of external unit corresponding to specific operation by use of remote-control terminal, setting-up section which, when change in state of external unit has been sensed, determines identification information about remote-control code group including remote-control code making change in the state, creates conversion information to correspond to external unit, and stores conversion information into memory, and control section which, when conversion information isn'"'"'t stored in memory, creates conversion information and stores the information into memory.

5. A method of setting up an image display apparatus connected to an external unit, comprising:
-
a first step of receiving remote-control codes sent from a remote-control terminal;
a second step of storing conversion information that causes identification information about remote-control code groups acceptable to the external unit to correspond to the external unit;
a third step of converting the remote-control codes received into remote-control codes acceptable to the external unit on the basis of the conversion information;
a fourth step of transmitting the remote-control code created in the third step to the external unit;
a fifth step of detecting a change in the state of the external unit corresponding to a specific operation by use of the remote-control terminal;
a sixth step of, when a change in the state of the external unit has been sensed in the fifth step, determining identification information about the remote-control code group including the remote-control code making the change in the state, creating the conversion information so as to correspond to the external unit, and storing the conversion information into the memory; and
a seventh step of, when the conversion information is not stored in the memory, creating the conversion information and storing the information into the memory. - View Dependent Claims (6, 7, 8)
