Computer and remote control system using the same
First Claim
1. A computer, comprising:
- a power supply to supply an electric power to a system;
a power controller that controls the power supply to cut and/or supply the electric power; and
a remote power control module, comprising;
a ring signal sensor to sense a ring signal received through a public switched telephone network, a data storage to store voice data including a predetermined voice message, a voice message emitter to convert the voice data into a signal compatible with the public switched telephone network and to emit the voice message to the public switched telephone network, and a microprocessor that controls the voice message emitter to emit the voice message to the public switched telephone network when the ring signal is sensed by the ring signal sensor and controls the power supply to supply electric power based on a control signal received from the public switched telephone network corresponding to the voice message.

Abstract
A computer including a power supply to supply electric power to a system; a power controller that controls the power supply to cut and/or supply electric power; and a remote power control module including a ring signal sensor to sense a ring signal received through a public switched telephone network (PSTN); a data storage to store voice data including a predetermined voice message; a voice message emitter to convert the voice data into a signal compatible with the PSTN and to emit the voice message to the PSTN; and a microprocessor (MICOM) that controls the voice message emitter to emit the voice message to the PSTN when the ring signal is sensed via the ring signal sensor and controls the power supply to supply electric power based on a control signal received from the PSTN corresponding to the voice message. Accordingly, the computer is turned on and/or off using a PSTN.
