Remote control system and remote control transmitter for use in the same
First Claim
1. A remote control system comprising:
- a remote control signal analyzing/writing device including;
(a) a signal receiving unit;
(b) analyzing means for analyzing an electric signal output from said signal receiving unit, and for converting said electric signal into transmissive remote control data;
(c) a first memory socket for removably receiving a first nonvolatile memory, and (d) a processing means for writing output data corresponding to said transmissive remote control data to said first nonvolatile memory;
a remote control transmitter including;
(a) second memory socket for removably receiving said first nonvolatile memory; and
(b) means for outputting a further signal corresponding to output data received through said second memory socket, wherein said output data corresponding to said transmissive remote control data written in said first nonvolatile memory is sent from said remote control transmitter when said first nonvolatile memory is connected to said second memory socket and said remote control transmitter is operated.

Abstract
A remote control system invention converts an infrared ray signal transmitted from an exclusive remote control transmitter of an electronic apparatus into a transmissive data by a signal analyzing/writing device, and writes the transmissive data in a nonvolatile memory, which is subsequently mounted on other remote control transmitter. A microcomputer in the remote control transmitter reads the transmissive data in the nonvolatile memory, and remote controls the electronic apparatus. Adoption of the present system enables a single unit of the remote control transmitter to remote control a plurality of electronic apparatuses by storing in the remote control transmitter transmissive data of different formats for the plurality of electronic apparatuses.
