Recording and reproducing apparatus, control method thereof, and remote control device
First Claim
1. A recording and reproducing apparatus, comprising:
- a remote control section having a dedicated key only used in a first mode for the operation of a main body, a dual purpose key used in a second mode for the operation of an outer apparatus and the first mode, a change key which changes a control mode from the first mode to the second mode, a first light emitting section which transmits a code signal in response to the key operation as radiant light, and a control section which controls the light emitting section to transmit a key code of a pressed key and a continuous code meaning continuous pressing when the dedicated key or the dual purpose key is continuously pressed in the first mode and to transmit only the key code of the dedicated key when the dedicated key is continuously pressed in the second mode;
a recording and reproducing unit which records and reproduces the information;
a second light emitting unit which transmits a code signal to the outer apparatus as radiant light; and
a main control section which controls the recording and reproducing unit to perform the recording and reproducing processing in response to a received code signal when the code signal is received from the first light emitting section of the remote control section and the first mode is selected based on the received code signal and to supply a predetermined signal to the outer apparatus via the second light emitting unit in response to the code signal from the first light emitting section when the second mode is selected.

7. A control method, when controlling a recording and reproducing apparatus having a recording and reproducing unit which records and reproduces the information and a second light emitting unit which transmits a code signal to the outer apparatus as radiant light, comprising:
-
using a remote controller having a dedicated key only used in a first mode for the operation of a main body, a dual purpose key that is used in a second mode for the operation of an outer apparatus and the first mode, a change key which changes a control mode from the first mode to the second mode, and a first light emitting section which transmits a code signal in response to the key operation as radiant light, wherein, the remote controller controls the light emitting section so as to transmit a key code of a pressed key and a continuous code meaning continuous pressing when the dedicated key or the dual purpose key is continuously pressed in the first mode and to transmit only the key code of the dedicated key when the dedicated key is continuously pressed in the second mode; and
when receiving the code signal from the first light emitting section of the remote controller, the recording and reproducing apparatus controls the recording and reproducing unit to perform the recording and reproducing processing in response to the received code signal when the first mode is selected based on the received code signal and to supply a predetermined code signal to the outer apparatus via the second light emitting unit in response to the code signal from the first light emitting section when the second mode is selected. - View Dependent Claims (8, 9, 10, 11, 12)
