A method and apparatus receive first control data associated with a first device, using a radio frequency transceiver and store the first control data in a memory. The method and apparatus detect selection of an operational function of the first device through an interface and use a processor to access the memory for control data corresponding to the operational function. The method and apparatus transmit the control data corresponding to the operational function to control the first device.

Remote control system

An example system includes a remote control and a host device. The remote control is configured to communication through a first communication interface and a second communication interface. The host device is configured to retrieve command information from a remote computer through a third communication interface, and responsive to one or more requests from the remote control, to transfer the command information to the remote control through the first communication interface, the remote control configured to control a plurality of remote devices through the second communication interface, using the command information.

A method and apparatus to determine during a power-up of an electronic system whether a conductive object is present at a sensing device at the power-up.

Press on power-up detection for a touch-sensor device

The invention provides an improved remote control system utilizing a host device to configure a single remote control via a first communications link, wherein the remote control operates a plurality of devices via a second communications link.
