Definitions
- the invention relates to a remote control station with concept fields and control buttons, which acts on a receiving station by means of a medium.
- Such remote control stations are known in various designs. It controls television sets, stereos and lights or lamps. Such devices are usually portable and have many buttons and other controls. Since there is only a relatively small area available on the devices, the range of functions can often not be adequately illustrated and explained. Relevant operating instructions are generally not popular and are often not at hand in practice. With an increasing number of channels for different devices and a large number of addresses, i.e. devices to be addressed, the reference to a single device to be controlled is usually lost. Apart from that, such remote control stations cannot be expanded later, since the number of operating elements is fixed.
- the invention has for its object to develop a remote control station that manages to avoid the disadvantages described with a common selection device for a connection to one of several devices and with a few controls for the selected device.
- a display then works together via a programmable functional unit with selection keys in a scroll key circuit in such a way that the actuation of a NEXT key calls up a first term and prolonged actuation passes through terms of a first hierarchical level. Pressing a STOP key calls up a next hierarchical lower command level, the individual terms of which can be called up using the NEXT key. Pressing a RESET button takes you back to the first term in the top hierarchical level. A specific device to be controlled, which is assigned under the selected address, can then be controlled by common operating elements.
- the controls can be an ON and an OFF button, to which, if necessary, adjusting means for the size of the business, for. B. are arranged for dimming a lighting system.
- receivers for status messages which are issued by a device to be controlled, and display devices for these conditions are also arranged on the remote control station.
- the initial state of the device to be controlled can then be easily recognized on the remote control station. This is particularly advantageous if the state of the device to be controlled cannot be clearly recognized anyway due to the line of sight.
- the functional unit can process specific signals for the identification of order spaces, the steps for selecting a device to be controlled can be simplified. Then enter a person with the Hand station a certain room, for example a certain room, the functional unit of the remote control station would then assume that only devices of the specific room are available without a special preselection. Otherwise, especially in the absence of line of sight and with a suitable transmission medium or with transmission chains in the program of the functional unit of the remote control station, it could be assumed that first a specific building, then a specific corridor and finally certain rooms must be selected and shown on the display.
- the remote control station 1 which can be constructed as a hand-held transmitter or as an installation device for insertion in flush-mounted boxes, has a programmable functional unit which works together with a display 2 for display.
- the programmable functional unit is operated using selection buttons 3, 4, 5. It is favorable to let the selection buttons work together with the functional unit, in particular in a run button circuit.
- the selection key 3 is a NEXT key
- the selection key 4 is a STOP key
- the selection key 5 is a RESETE key.
- Pressing the CONTINUE button 3 calls up a first term via the functional unit and shows it on the display 2. Pressing the NEXT key 3 for a longer period runs through terms of a first hierarchical level, for example floor numbers or corridors. Pressing the STOP button 4 calls up a next, hierarchically lower command level, for example the room command level. The individual terms of this command level, in the example the individual room numbers or the names of the rooms, are called up with the NEXT key 3. In the example, a further actuation of the STOP button 4 leads to the individual controllable devices in a specific room in a specific corridor. Pressing the RESET key 5 leads back to the first term in the hierarchically highest command level, in the example: to the first hallway or floor.
- the control elements 6, 7, 8 and 9 can be used to control a selected device and shown on the display 2.
- the control element 6 can be designed as an ON key
- the control element 7 as an OFF key
- the control element 8 for increasing a quantity or operating size of the selected device
- the operating element 9 for reducing a quantity or operating size of the selected device.
- the selected device is, for example, a staircase lighting system
- "staircase light” is shown on display 2 and after pressing the ON button 6 also reproduces the "ON" state.
- the illuminance can be increased by the operating element 8 and decreased by the operating element 9.
- a structured hierarchical structure of the dialing device that is to say the program of the functional unit in connection with the selection keys, is not necessary but is very inexpensive. Even without a structure, the terms of a certain set could be called up in an order.
- the described remote control station makes it possible to subsequently add devices to be operated or to reduce the number of devices to be controlled.
- a structured structure in the case of remote control stations according to the prior art requires redundancy and brings about unused channels, an expansion generally disturbing a built-up structure, since there are too few free function keys.
- Electromagnetic or optical signals are particularly suitable as the transmission medium for the commands, also in a chain arrangement and with relay stations.
