Der Benutzer steuert das Gerät mit der Fernbedienung, sie wird nach Beendigung eines Steuervorganges hingelegt. Nach den Erfahrungen haben Benutzer auch andere Tätigkeiten zu machen, währendessen das Gerät wie eingestellt (kann auch bedeuten, das es nur in Bereitschaft ist) funktioniert.The user controls the device with the remote control, she is put down after the completion of a tax transaction. To Users have other activities related to their experiences make while the device is set (can also mean that it is only on standby).
Das Gerät soll erneut gesteuert werden, aber der Benutzer weisst nichtmehr, wo er die Fernbedienung hingelegt hatte, oder ein andere Benutzer (z. B. ein andere Famielienmitglied) sie hinlegen könnte. Es beginnt das Suchen der Fernbedienung. Alle mögliche Benutzer werden befragt, Zeitungen werden um gewühlt, Schränke werden durchsucht aber die Fernbedienung ist nicht zu finden. . . Endlich findet sie jemand z. B. am Telefon. Mit dem Suchen sind wertvolle Minuten vergangen, der Benutzer ärgert sich, weil er einen wichtigen Programm ver passt hatte. Er hatte die Fernbedienung nur mühsam wieder zur Verfügung. Es könnte am nächsten Mal wieder passieren, nicht alle Leuten legen die Fernbedienungen ordnungsgemäss auf die selbe Stelle nieder. In heutigen Haushalten gibt es mehrere Fernbedienungen, die auch nicht sofort zu finden sind.The device should be controlled again, but the user no longer knows where he put the remote control, or another user (e.g. another family member) them could lie down. Searching for the remote control begins. Any users will be interviewed, newspapers will be around rummaged, cabinets are searched but the remote control cannot be found. . . Finally someone finds her. B. on Phone. Valuable minutes have passed with the search User is annoyed because he is ver an important program had fit. The remote control was difficult to use Available. It might happen again next time, not all people hang up the remote controls properly the same place. In today's households there is several remote controls, which are also not to be found immediately.
Ein Gerät, was mit einem Fernbedienung-Handgerät ausgesta ttet ist hat in den meisten Fällen in der Wohnung oder in Werkststt einen festen ständigen Platz. Z. B. ein Fernsehgerät muss nicht gesucht werden.A device that can be equipped with a handheld remote control is in most cases in the apartment or in Workshop a permanent place. For example, a television set does not have to be searched.
Die Erfindung soll das Suchen des Fernbedienung-Handgerät
gekenntzeichnet /B/ wie folgt erleichtern:
Findet ein Benutzer die Fernbedienung /B/ nicht, soll er zum
Gerät /A/ gehen, Taste /1/ drücken. Es bewirkt, das das Gerät /A/
codierte Funksignale aussendet, die dementsprechend von
der Fernbedienung /B/ empfangen werden. Diese Funksignale
aktivieren die Suchfunktion und die Fernbedienung /B/ sendet
Ton-/3/ und Licht-/4/ -zeichnen, die vom Benutzer erkannt
werden können. Die aktivierte Suchsignale sollten für eine
begrenzte Zeit z. B. 30 sec. lang funktionieren. Findet der
Benutzer mit Hilfe der Suchsignale die Fernbedienung /B/
früher, als die 30 sec vergangen sind, kann er die Suchsig
nale mit Taste /5/ ausschalten. Damit ist der Suchvorgang
beendet.The invention is intended to facilitate the search for the remote control handheld device / B / as follows:
If a user cannot find the remote control / B /, he should go to the device / A /, press the / 1 / button. It causes the device / A / to transmit coded radio signals, which are accordingly received by the remote control / B /. These radio signals activate the search function and the remote control / B / transmits sound / 3 / and light / 4 / drawings that can be recognized by the user. The activated search signals should for a limited time z. B. function for 30 sec. If the user finds the remote control / B / earlier than the 30 seconds have passed with the help of the search signals, he can switch off the search signals with the / 5 / button. The search is now complete.
/2/ Taste hat Stummschaltefunktion, falls es erforderlich ist, kann das Gerät stumm geschaltet werden, damit die Töne, die von Fernbedienung kommen, besser hörbar werden./ 2 / button has a mute function, if necessary the device can be muted so that the sounds coming from the remote control can be heard better.
Mit Hilfe der Suchfunktion wird der Benutzer die Fernbe dienung schneller, problemlos finden. Das lange Suchen kann erspart werden, wie bisher der Stand der Technik es notwendig machte, die Fernbedienung musste manchmal lange gesucht werden.With the help of the search function, the user becomes the remote operator service faster, easy to find. The long search can be spared, as was the state of the art necessary, the remote control sometimes had to be searched for a long time.
Die Suchfunktion kann auch beim schwer zugänglichen Geräten, Mobilanlagen, wie z. B. ein Werkstatt-Laufkran ist eingesetzt werden. Hier kann ein Fixpunkt angebracht werden, der einen festen ständigen Platz hat und die Suchsignal-Sendeeinrichtung bzw. Taste /1/ aufnimmt. (In einer Werkstatt wäre Taste /2/ überflüssig) Der Suchvorgang kann auch hier wie oben beschrieben ablaufen.The search function can also be used for devices that are difficult to access, mobile systems such. B. a workshop overhead crane is used. A fixed point can be attached here, which has a permanent place and receives the search signal transmission device or button / 1 /. (Key / 2 / would be superfluous in a workshop) The search process can also proceed as described above.
Die Suchfunktion bedarf die folgende technische Einricht
ungen:
Gesteuertes Gerät /A/:
The search function requires the following technical facilities:
Controlled device / A /:
- - Einrichtung, die codierte Funksignale aussendet- Device that transmits coded radio signals
- - Taste /1/, damit kann die Funksignal-Sendeeinrichtung aktiviert werden- Key / 1 /, so that the radio signal transmission device can be activated
- - Taste /2/, damit kann die Stummschaltung aktiviert werden- Key / 2 /, so that the mute function can be activated
Im Einzellfall kann Taste /1/ und /2/ zusamenngelegt werden.
Beide Tasten müssen von den anderen Bedienungstasten deut
lich getrennt angebracht werden.
Fernbedienung-Handgerät /B/:
In individual cases, buttons / 1 / and / 2 / can be combined. Both buttons must be clearly separated from the other control buttons.
