Figure GSA00000119232700041
20 virtual keys of above-mentioned four button correspondences have comprised 20 television control functionality commonly used, and what wherein the A key comprised is the most basic control function of televisor, comprise channel+, channel-, volume+, volume-, and power switch etc.A button A just can realize basic TV operation, and this has embodied patent of the present invention about simplifying the meaning of button design.
The B key has then comprised the expanded function of televisor among the figure, for example quiet, audio/video input, information demonstration etc.The B key also further includes menu and withdrawing from, and this can be used for the setting of televisor, after entering televisor pattern is set, the upper and lower, left and right of just available C key, confirms that function carries out the menu operation of singly-key type.
As for the D key then is Favorite (hobby) key of present embodiment definition, can be five favorite program channels of user of D key input (F1~F5) by the telepilot mode of learning, the user just can realize the direct selection or the switching of program channel by the single key stroke of D key afterwards, rather than as traditional remote controller, need multikey to select, or the switching that circulates.If do not want to set the hobby key, can be special function keys (Functions) also with these five key definitions, these functions can be set under mode of learning by the user.
Can find that in Fig. 1 telepilot 10 has a plurality of button operations plane, in fact the telepilot of present embodiment has the button operation plane of four equalizations, and each operating surface degree can work alone, and controls different electric equipments.The button of televisor is arranged on the operating surface 16 among the figure, and the button of DVD then is arranged on the operating surface 18, with corresponding 20 the virtual key/control function of four buttons of DVD shown in following table three.
Table three: DVD keypress function complete list
Figure GSA00000119232700051
From above-mentioned keypress function definition, be not difficult to find the centrality and the convenience of DVD button operation.Wherein the A key has comprised the basic function of DVD operation, B key and C key have then comprised the expanded function of DVD, if carry out the setting of DVD, can carry out one-touch menu operation by the D key, because the definition of each button is all very clear, this use for the user provides convenience.
The telepilot that can also find present embodiment from Fig. 1 has adopted the design of rectangular cubic type, this design makes telepilot have the button operation face of four equalizations, make a telepilot integrate four remote-controller functions and become possibility, these four telepilot operating surfaces can be used for controlling televisor, DVD, set-top box and stereo set respectively, this can satisfy the required whole control function requirements of general family basically, therefore we can say that it is a more complete remote control solution of home audio-visual system.What merit attention is that each operating surface of this telepilot all is independently, can directly control relevant equipment, need not to want first switching controls object as traditional universal remote controller, could control specific equipment then.
