Definitions

  • the invention relates to a transmitter for a remote control group, the transmitter being of the type comprising:- a controller; a non-volatile memory; a radiation transmitter; a radiation receiver; a user interface; a means in the controller for directing transmission of a radiation signal having an embedded code recognisable by a receiver of the group for activation of a shared function; and means in the controller for directing reception of a radiation signal, for extraction of a code from a received signal, and for storage of the code in the non-volatile memory to learn the code for future use.
  • remote control group is intended to cover a group wherein there are one or more receivers and a number of transmitters.
  • the invention applies particularly, but not exclusively to gate and barrier opening remote control groups where there may be hundreds of transmitters and several receivers.
  • United States patent specification No. US-A-4988992 (Chamberlain) describes a transmitter having the features set out above.
  • a program switch and a transmit switch are pressed simultaneously to cause random generation of a code which is inputted to a NOR gate.
  • the other input of the NOR gate may receive at the same time a code from another transmitter via a radio reception circuit. If a remote code is being received, the random code generator is disabled and it is the received code which is stored in the non-volatile memory. If no remote code is being received, it is the randomly generated code which is stored.
  • Another problem is that it is necessary to press simultaneously a combination of two input buttons out of a total of three such buttons. This requires a certain degree of knowledge of the program state of the transmitter. Where the remote control group includes hundreds of users, it can be quite time-consuming to educate every user as to how the transmitter operates.
  • US-A-4652860 BMW
  • EP-A1-0533623 Somfy
  • US-A-4652860 there are several input buttons to be selected from by the user for learning of a code and thus, operation of the transmitter is relatively complex. Further, there do not appear to be any features controlling the extent to which transmitters of a remote control group may learn codes. Similar comments apply to EP-A-10533623, in which a galvanic link in used for learning of code.
  • controller further comprises:- means for embedding an instruction together with the code in a transmitted radio signal to instruct operation of a transmitter receiving the signal; and means for automatically monitoring received radiation signals for presence of such an instruction, and for operating according the instruction.
  • the invention provides for control of operation of transmitters in a remote control group. This is very important, particularly where the group is large.
  • the instruction is an indicator as to whether or not the accompanying code can be learned, thereby setting the transmitter as having a teach and learn status or a learn only status. Accordingly, the transmitter may be set as a learn only or as a teach and learn transmitter in a very simple manner.
  • the controller is connected to a non-resettable switch which determines the instruction to be embedded in the radiation signal. This provides security in setting of transmitter operations.
  • the radiation signal contains a sequence of binary bits, the instruction being within a pre-set sequence of the bits. This allows for simple and fast operation.
  • the controller is activated to automatically monitor the radiation receiver in response to a transmit instruction from the user interface. This feature allows the transmitter operate to learn a code in a very simple manner without any technical knowledge in addition to that required for opening a barrier using the transmitter, for example.
  • the controller comprises a means for delaying signal transmission for a pre-set period after receipt of a user transmit instruction, and a means for monitoring the radiation receiver during said period.
  • the controller further comprises a means for delaying signal transmission for a second period if a signal is detected during the first period, and a means for attempting to extract a code embedded in a detected signal during the second period.
  • the invention provides a transmitter for a remote control group, the transmitter comprising:- a controller; a non-volatile memory; a radiation transmitter; a radiation receiver; a user interface; means in the controller for directing transmission of a radiation signal having an embedded code recognisable by a receiver of the group for activation of a shared function; means in the controller for reception of a radiation signal, for extraction of a code from a received signal and for storage of the code in the non-volatile memory to learn the code for future use, characterised in that, the controller comprises means for automatically monitoring the radiation receiver in response to a transmit instruction from the user interface.
  • the group 1 comprises a set of transmitters 2, each having a transmission antenna 3.
  • the group 1 also includes a receiver 4 which picks up signals from the transmitters 2 at a receiver antenna 5.
  • the receiver 4 is connected to an output device, not shown, which is typically a door such as a garage door. While only three transmitters 2 are shown there will typically be hundreds of transmitters for a single remote control group. Indeed, there may also be several receivers, each receiver being for control of a shared function such as the opening of a gate or barrier.
  • the receiver 4 stores three valid codes, which are used as references for comparison with codes received from the transmitters 2 for activation of the three shared functions. Each function and its code is referred to as a channel.
  • the transmitter 2 comprises a moulded plastics casing 10 having a removable cover 11 with a resilient catch 12.
  • the transmitter 2 has three channel select buttons 13. Each button 13 is associated with a particular code stored within the transmitter 2, there being three channels in the receiver 4. For example, one function may be opening of a barrier, another closing of a barrier, and another may relate to a different speed for opening or closing. Alternatively, the functions may be for different barriers allowing access to a site.
  • a light emitting diode (LED) 14 is mounted on the outside of the casing 10.
  • the compartment which is covered by the cover 11 includes a randomise button 15 which is pressed if the user wishes to randomly generate a new code for storage in the non-volatile memory.
  • a teach status switch 16 which is in the form of a conductor, the status being the conductor intact as shown in Fig. 2a, or being open-circuited by being cut. This function is described in more detail below.
  • the compartment also includes a battery 17 connected to terminals 18.
  • the transmitter 2 includes a micro-controller 20 which is programmed by programs stored on-chip and in an EEPROM non-volatile memory circuit 21.
  • the transmitter 2 includes a radio transmitter 22 and a radio receiver 23, both of which are connected to the antenna 3.
  • Figs. 2(b) and 4 describe operation of the transmitter 2.
  • the user When the transmitter 2 is being used for activation of a shared function such as opening of a gate, the user simply presses the channel select button 13 which relates to the particular function.
  • the microcontroller 20 detects depression of the relevant button 13 and activates the LED 14 to indicate that the transmitter 2 is operational and at the same time activates the radio transmitter 22 to transmit the channel code retrieved from the memory 21.
  • the code is transmitted using the Frequency Shift Keying Coding System.
  • the codes which are stored in the memory 21 may be generated initially by pressing the randomise button 15 which instructs the microcontroller 20 to randomly generate a new code. However, it should only be necessary to perform this operation once.
  • a much more common way of recording a code in the memory 21 is to learn the code from another transmitter 2 as shown in Fig. 2(b).
  • the words “teaching” and “learning” will be used to indicate which transmitter is being referred to in the description below.
  • the two transmitters are placed next to each other and the relevant channel select button 13 is pressed on both transmitters that of the teaching transmitter being pressed firstly. This is all that is required of the user and the LED 14 of the learning transmitter flashes to indicate that the code has been successfully learned. There is no need to press any other button - just the button which is normally pressed for the particular channel. It will be appreciated that to the user this is a very important feature of the invention.
  • teaching transmitter 2 may only be used for teaching of a code if the controller 20 has been pre-set to allow it to teach code. This provides considerable additional security and allows control over the manner in which the transmitters are configured when being given to users of a remote control group.
  • the teach status switch 16 is pre-set. If the switch 16 is conductive, then the microcontroller 20 "knows" that it can act as a code teaching transmitter. Therefore, every time a transmit button 13 is pressed it transmits the code via the radio antenna 3 but includes in addition to the code, an instruction, namely, an additional bit at bit position 25 to indicate that the code may be learned by another transmitter.
  • the code is 24 binary bits long, and the extra bit 25 indicates whether or not the code may be learned. If, however, the switch 16 were cut to provide an open circuit to the microcontroller 20, then the microcontroller 20 would "know” that it can not teach and the value of bit 25 will be understood by other transmitters as an indication that the code can not be learned.
  • the upper transmitter 2 has an intact teach switch 16 and therefore the 25th bit in the code which is transmitted has binary value 1 which is understood by the lower transmitter 2 to mean that the code can be learned.
  • the switch 16 may be regarded as being non-resettable as it requires special knowledge of the circuit and soldering equipment to change.
  • a teach status indicator may be stored in the memory 21 to indicate to the controller 20 whether or not it can operate as a teaching transmitter.
  • FIG. 4 is a flow chart illustrating how the controller 20 of a learning transmitter 2 operates.
  • the user presses the relevant transmit button 13 on the teaching transmitter 2, and immediately afterwards in step 31 on the learning transmitter 2.
  • step 32 the controller 20 of the learning transmitter 2 spends 12.5 ms listening for a signal at the radio receiver 23. If no signal is detected in this 12.5 ms time period as indicated by decision steps 33, the learning transmitter 2 in step 38 simply transmits the code associated with the transmit button 13 which has been pressed.
  • step 34 the controller 20 of the learning transmitter 2 spends a further 3 seconds listening for and extracting a code within the signal being received as indicated by step 34.
  • the controller continues to listen during the three second time period and if this period expires without a valid code being extracted, the relevant code associated with the transmit button 13 which has been pressed is transmitted in step 38. If, however, a valid code is identified during the 3-second time period, this code is stored in step 36 in the non-volatile memory 21. Subsequently, the code is transmitted in code 38. In step 39 the transmit button is released and the learning operation is complete.
  • the controller listens for a code being received on depression of only a transmit button.
  • it operates to listen for a code every time the transmit button is pressed.
  • Data integrity and reliability are received in particular by delaying transmission of a code while the controller listens to the radio receiver for reception of a radio signal.
  • the delay time for the vast majority of cases is only 12.5 ms because no relevant signal will be detected.
  • a signal will be detected during the first period and the second period will then be used for extraction of the code and storage of it in the memory 21.
  • a transmitter may be initially programmed by pressing the randomise button 15 and this transmitter may then be used for teaching each of the other transmitters of the group, and also the receiver.
  • coding of all devices of the remote control group is extremely simple and quick. Complete versatility is then provided by the ability to set each successive transmitter as being a "learn only” transmitter or alternatively as a “learn and teach” transmitter depending on the instruction transmitted together with he code. This considerably improves the control over operation of the remote control group. Users may very easily teach code to a new transmitter by simply pressing the transmit button only and monitoring the LED 14 for a flash.
  • the transmitter may include separate antennae for the radiation transmitter and receiver.
  • the transmitter may use any other remote communication medium such as infra red or radiation of any suitable frequency.
  • the features of the invention apply equally to all types of radiation, and in the embodiment illustrated radio signals are used as circuits for radio communication are particularly inexpensive and reliable.
  • the delay times for listening at the radiation receiver may be varied considerably from those described. Possibly the minimum listening time for listening for a signal would be about 5 ms, however, the upper limit could extend to 0.5s or even higher. Indeed, it is not essential that the controller delay transmission of a code while it listens to the radiation receiver as different radio wavelengths may be used and both could happen simultaneously. However, it will be appreciated that by delaying the transmission of a signal a relatively simple and inexpensive circuit may be used and there is improved reliability.
  • An important feature of the invention is the manner in which the code which is transmitted includes an extra bit to indicate to the receiving transmitter whether or not the code may be learned.
  • the instruction which is provided every time a signal is transmitted is of major importance in providing control for the remote control group.
  • the instruction which is transmitter together with the code may be of a different type to instruct operation of the receiving transmitter. It may include information, for example, to the effect that a code may be learned only for the particular channel on the receiving transmitter.
