Remote control apparatus of wireless communication terminal and method for performing function thereof
First Claim
1. A remote control apparatus in a wireless communication terminal, the apparatus comprising:
- an input unit for selecting remote control target equipment, and inputting a remote control command;
a controller for, upon detection of the selection, setting a remote control mode for remotely controlling the remote control target equipment, informing the remote control target equipment to be remotely controlled, enabling the remote control target equipment to perform initialization, and detecting input through the input unit as an input of the remote control command in the remote control mode; and
a transceiver for generating a message for informing the remote control target equipment to be remotely controlled or a wireless signal corresponding to the remote control command and transmitting the generated message or wireless signal to the remote control target equipment, or receiving a wireless signal from the remote control target equipment.

14. A method for performing a remote control function of a wireless communication terminal, the method comprising:
-
checking whether any remote control target equipment is selected;
upon detection of the selection, displaying a uni-direction/bi-direction communication mode menu;
upon selection of the uni-direction communication mode menu, displaying a user interface for performing the remote control function;
upon selection of the bi-direction communication mode menu, informing the selected remote control target equipment to be remotely controlled, and displaying a user-interface for performing the remote control function;
upon detection of channel selection through the user interface, informing the remote control target equipment of the channel selection; and
when a channel is tuned, in a bi-direction communication mode, displaying information received from the remote control target equipment together with the user-interface for performing the remote control function. - View Dependent Claims (15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20)
