The conventional ceiling fan remote control system is mostly an infrared remote control system, and its system architecture includes an infrared remote controller and a receiving host mounted on the ceiling fan. The infrared remote control has built-in infrared emission module and several control buttons (such as motor power switch/speed control button; or lamp power switch/segment button); the receiving host includes infrared receiving module and a control module; When one of the control buttons is pressed, a corresponding remote command is generated; the infrared transmitting module modulates the remote control command and the infrared carrier into a remote control signal in the form of infrared rays, and transmits the same to the infrared receiving module, and the infrared receiving module is solved by the infrared receiving module. After adjusting the remote control signal, the remote control command is restored, the control module (such as the combination of the microprocessor and the drive circuit) is interpreted, and then the remote control command is interpreted, and then the operation of the ceiling fan motor or the light fixture is controlled according to the remote control command. Although the conventional ceiling fan remote control system can provide the function of directly controlling the ceiling fan by the user, in general, the ceiling fan remote controller is often often stored in an inconspicuous place or malfunctioning, so that the user often has to spend extra energy and time. In the search for the ceiling fan remote control or the remote control operation, the inconvenience and trouble of the remote control of the ceiling fan is caused. Therefore, how to develop a remote control system that can be combined with the handheld electronic device is indeed an urgent task for the related art. Technical issues that must be addressed.

In view of the various shortcomings arising from the above various conventional technologies, the present creator has accumulated many years of rich R&D design experience and actively invested in research and development. After continuous design, trial and experiment, the new research and development results are produced.

The main purpose of the present invention is to provide a ceiling fan remote control device capable of realizing a remote control ceiling fan function through a portable electronic device that is carried around, so as to avoid extra effort for searching for a ceiling fan remote controller or a remote control failure due to storage. Inconvenience and troubles arise. The technical means for achieving the main purpose of the present invention include a handheld electronic device and a remote control signal transmission module. The handheld electronic device has a remote control application built therein. When the remote control application is executed, the touch display screen of the handheld electronic device displays a remote control operation interface, and the remote control operation interface can be used by the user to operate the setting to generate a remote control command. The remote control signal transmission module is used to transmit the remote control command to the control module of the ceiling fan, and the control module reads and processes the remote control command, and then controls the motor or the luminaire of the ceiling fan accordingly.
