Remote control devices for electronic devices

摘要

A remote control device for an electronic device includes a first storage device for storing a plurality of remote control data for controlling an object remotely, a first selection device for selecting respective remote control data from among the plurality of remote control data stored in the first storage device, and an output device for transmitting the respective remote control data selected by the first selection device toward a remote control receiver of the controlled object. A second storage device is provided for storing frequency data on the frequency of transmission of each remote control data output by the output device, and a data updating device is provided for incrementing the respective frequency data stored in the second storage device responsive to the output device transmitting remote control data. A second selection device responsive to a manual operation key is provided for selecting respective remote control data stored in the first storage device in decreasing order of corresponding frequency data stored in the second storage device, and the output device transmits the respective remote control data selected by the second selection device toward the remote control receiver of the controlled object.
