A remote signal transmitter that is capable of producing a command comprising a signal including a first value and an answer calculated using the first value as an input variable in a transfer function. The transmitter broadcasts the signal to a receiver which receives the first value and the answer. The receiver then performs a second calculation using the first value to produce a second answer. The first answer incident upon the receiver is then compared with the second answer and if a predetermined comparison test is satisfied, the subsequent command is implemented. The preferred embodiment of the present invention includes a means to increment the first value each time the transmitter is utilized. In addition, the receiver includes a screening process in which the second calculation performed by the receiver will not be performed if a previously used first value is received.
