System and method for training a transmitter to control a remote control system
View Patent ↗A method for training a trainable RF transmitter to transmit variable code signals used to actuate a remote device having a receiver where the transmitter includes a memory that has stored variable code characteristics for a plurality of different remote devices includes initiating a training sequence and generating at least one RF carrier signal having the variable code characteristics associated with one remote device of the plurality of different remote devices. The method further includes transmitting the at least one RF carrier signal to the receiver of the remote device and repeating the generating and transmitting steps for the variable code characteristics of each remote device in the plurality of different remote device until feedback is received from a user that the remote device is activated. Upon receiving an indication that the remote device is activated, the transmitter stores an identifier of the variable code characteristics that activated the remote device.
1. A method for actuating a remote device having a receiver using an RF transmitter in a vehicle to transmit variable code signals, the RF transmitter including a memory having variable code characteristics associated with a plurality of different remote device types, the method comprising:
initiating an operating sequence to actuate the remote device;
generating a plurality of variable code messages for a plurality of device types using the variable code characteristics;
interleaving the plurality of variable code messages to create interleaved data; and
transmitting the interleaved data.
2. A method according to claim 1 , wherein transmitting the interleaved data comprises simultaneously transmitting each of the plurality of variable code messages at a different frequency.
3. A method according to claim 2 , wherein interleaving the plurality of variable code messages comprising dispersing packets of each variable code message over a period of time.
4. A method according to claim 1 , wherein the interleaved data is transmitted at a single frequency.
5. A method according to claim 1 , wherein the plurality of RF carrier signals are generated and transmitted at each initiation of the operating sequence.
