System and method for wireless control of multiple remote electronic systems
First Claim
1. An in-vehicle transmitter for wirelessly controlling a plurality of remote electronic systems, the transmitter comprising:
- a memory configured to store a plurality of wireless control code for the plurality of remote electronic systems, wherein the plurality of wireless control code comprises a first code to control the operation of a first remote electronic system and a second code different than the first code to control the operation of a second remote electronic system; and
a control circuit mounted to a vehicle interior element configured, in response to operator actuation of one switch, so that the transmitter provides a first wireless control signal having the first code and a second wireless control signal having the second code.

20. A method for training a transmitter for a wireless control system in a vehicle to wirelessly control a plurality of remote electronic systems based upon a single event, the method comprising:
-
receiving a request from a user to begin training a plurality of wireless control signals to be associated with a single event;
receiving the single event;
receiving at the in-vehicle wireless control system, a first wireless control signal having a first wireless control code;
identifying and storing the first wireless control code on the first wireless control signal;
associating the first wireless control signal with the single event, whereby the in-vehicle wireless control system can wirelessly control a first remote electronic system by transmitting the first wireless control code of the first wireless control signal in response to the single event;
receiving at the in-vehicle wireless control system, a second wireless control signal having a second wireless control code;
identifying and storing the second wireless control code on the second wireless control signal; and
associating the second wireless control signal with the single event, whereby the in-vehicle wireless control system can wirelessly control a second remote electronic system by transmitting the second wireless control code of the second wireless control signal in response to the single event. - View Dependent Claims (21, 22, 23, 24)
