remote controls (transmitters) with display are part of Picomeds products
for environmental control systems. They transmit infrared light (IR)
used to control IR-receivers. This is the same type of signals used
by many of the apparatus for home entertainment. Picomeds trainable
remote controls can learn signals from many of these apparatus.
To obtain the best range for the transmitter,
it is best that it is pointed towards the receiver. Although this
is not necessary, the IR signals will be reflected from walls etc
in such a way as to still operate the system. To take advantage
of these reflections, the distance between the transmitter and the
receiver should be more than 1 metre.
Picomeds remote controls with display are available
in 3 versions with 4, 8 and 18 keys. If there is more functions
to control than the available number of keys on one page, one can
use different levels or pages on the IR-remote controllers. A symbol
in in the display indicates the page or level which is active. There
are 10 pages available, and there are 100 symbols which can be linked
to the pages.
The keys can be equipped with symbols
to identify the key function e.g. "volume up" "channel
down" etc. Fingerguides are also available depending on the
needs of the user. It is possible to send up to 4 IR-signals in
sequence on every key. It can be programmed to control different
systems for different users. The remote control IR-transmitters
are located in the front part of the unit as are the IR-sensors
which are used to learn other IR signals. The display gives information
when it transmits IR, when it receives IR, battery low condition
and of course which page is chosen. It will also give information
when entering one of the programming modes.
