Method of testing and installing a home automation remote control

摘要

The method involves providing utilization of emulator software (ALS) emulating a remote control (RCU) in a portable personal computer (PCU) for defining a virtual remote control (VRCU). The virtual remote control is configured for permitting control of actuators (ACT1-ACT3) of a home systems network. Transmission lines are attributed to the virtual remote control. The virtual remote control is duplicated and configured in the remote control for deleting the transmission lines. Independent claims are also included for the following: (1) a data medium comprising software for implementing a method of testing and installing a remote control (2) a remote control comprising an activation code memory.
