METHOD FOR CONTROLLING EXTERNAL DEVICE AND REMOTE CONTROLLER THEREOF

摘要

A method for operating a remote controller for remotely controlling a device, and which includes wirelessly receiving, by a receiving unit of the remote controller, information indicating that the currently connected external device is a first device, the information received from a second device that is different than the first device; determining, by a control unit of the remote controller, a type of the first device based on the received information; determining, by the control unit, keys on the remote controller to operate the first device; displaying, by a touch panel of the remote controller, the keys on the remote controller to operate the first device; receiving, by a user input unit of the remote controller, an input signal indicating a selection of at least one of the keys to operate the first device; and transmitting, by a transmitting unit of the remote controller, a remote control signal as a Radio Frequency (RF) signal, wherein the keys displayed on the remote controller to operate the first device are different from keys displayed on the remote controller to operate a third device different from the first device, and wherein the remote control signal is generated based on the received input signal.

1. A method for operating a remote controller for remotely controlling a device, the method comprising:
wirelessly receiving, by a receiving unit of the remote controller, information indicating that the currently connected external device is a first device, the information received from a second device that is different than the first device; determining, by a control unit of the remote controller, a type of the first device based on the received information; determining, by the control unit, keys on the remote controller to operate the first device; displaying, by a touch panel of the remote controller, the keys on the remote controller to operate the first device; receiving, by a user input unit of the remote controller, an input signal indicating a selection of at least one of the keys to operate the first device; and transmitting, by a transmitting unit of the remote controller, a remote control signal as a Radio Frequency (RF) signal, wherein the keys displayed on the remote controller to operate the first device are different from keys displayed on the remote controller to operate a third device different from the first device, and wherein the remote control signal is generated based on the received input signal.
