1. A remote controlling system, comprising:
- an infrared remote controller which generates a first serial signal containing a command corresponding to a user'"'"'s operation and outputs the first serial signal by infrared communication;
a radio remote controller which generates a code signal containing a key number corresponding to a user'"'"'s operation and outputs the code signal by radio communication; and
an electronic device having;
a light receiving section which receives the first serial signal,a radio receiving section which receives the code signal, converts the code signal into a second serial signal containing a command corresponding to the key number, and generates a control signal which denotes that the code information has been received,a selecting section which selects one of the first serial signal and the second serial signal based on the control signal and outputs the selected serial signal such that while the control signal is being supplied, the selecting section selects the second serial signal, anda controlling section which controls each section of the electronic device based on the command contained either in the first serial signal or the second serial signal selected by the selecting section.

Abstract
A remote controlling system is disclosed. An infrared remote controller generates a first serial signal containing a command corresponding to a user'"'"'s operation and outputs the first serial signal by infrared communication. A radio remote controller generates a code signal containing a key number corresponding to a user'"'"'s operation and outputs the code signal by radio communication. An electronic device includes a light receiving section, a radio receiving section, a selecting section, and a controlling section.

4. An electronic device comprising:
-
a light receiving section which receives a first serial signal containing a command corresponding to a user'"'"'s operation for a first remote controller by infrared communication; a radio receiving section which receives a code signal containing a key number corresponding to a user'"'"'s operation for a second remote controller by radio communication, converts the code signal into a second serial signal containing a command corresponding to the key number, and generates a control signal which denotes that the code information has been received; a selecting section which selects one of the first serial signal and the second serial signal based on the control signal and outputs the selected serial signal such that while the control signal is being supplied, the selecting section selects the second serial signal; and a controlling section which controls each section of the electronic device based on the command contained either in the first serial signal or the second serial signal selected by the selecting section.

5. A controlling method comprising the steps of:
-
receiving a first serial signal containing a command corresponding to a user'"'"'s operation for a first remote controller by infrared communication; receiving a code signal containing a key number corresponding to a user'"'"'s operation for a second remote controller, converting the code signal into a second serial signal containing a command corresponding to the key number, and generating a control signal which denotes that the code information has been received; selecting one of the first serial signal and the second serial signal based on the control signal and outputting the selected serial signal such that while the control signal is being supplied, the second serial signal is selected; and controlling each step based on the command contained either in the first serial signal or the second serial signal selected at the selecting step.
