Method, Apparatus and System For Assigning Remote Control Device to Ambulatory Medical Device
First Claim
Patent Images
1. A remote control apparatus for use with an ambulatory medical device, the remote control apparatus comprising:
- a user input mechanism adapted to be actuated to generate user inputs;
a communication device adapted to facilitate a communication link between the remote control apparatus and the ambulatory medical device; and
a controller adapted to control the communication device in response to the user input mechanism being actuated, and to receive and process the user inputs to determine whether the user inputs represent a sequence authorizing an assignment of the remote control apparatus to the ambulatory medical device.

21. A method for communicating between a remote control and an ambulatory medical device, the remote control having only a single user operated control, which single operated control is a user input mechanism adapted to be actuated by a user of the remote control to generate a user input, the remote control being adapted to facilitate a communication link with the ambulatory medical device, the method including:
actuating the single user input mechanism of the remote control to generate a sequence of user inputs recognizable by the remote control as an instruction to generate and transmit to the ambulatory medical device via the communication link a marrying command that assigns the remote control to the ambulatory medical device enabling the ambulatory medical device to respond only to operational commands provided by the remote control. - View Dependent Claims (22)

23. A method for communicating between a remote control and an ambulatory medical device, the remote control including first and second user operated controls, the first user operated control is a single user input mechanism adapted to be actuated by a user of the remote control to generate a user input, the remote control being adapted to facilitate a communication link with the ambulatory medical device, the method including:
by actuating only the single user input mechanism of the remote control, generating a sequence of user inputs recognizable as an instruction to generate and transmit to the ambulatory medical device via the communication link a marrying command that assigns the remote control to the ambulatory medical device enabling the ambulatory medical device to respond only to the operational commands of the remote control. - View Dependent Claims (24, 25, 26, 27, 28)
