Abstract

Claims (42)

1. A command code management method, implemented by a command code management device, comprising:

receiving, by the management device, a command code from a first terminal, the command code the resulting from a coding of a command;

determining a second terminal that is associated with the first terminal for command code management with the first terminal based on the received command code;

generating a command signal based on the received command code that includes the command; and

transmitting the command signal from the management device to the second terminal for execution of the command of the command code and for displaying a result of an execution of the command of the command code, the command code having been received by the first terminal prior to the transmitting of the command signal and after associating the first terminal and the second terminal,

wherein the first terminal, the second terminal and the management device are separate devices.

2. The command code management method as claimed in claim 1 , wherein generating the command signal comprises

decoding the received command code.

3. The command code management method as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the command code comprises a pictogram command code.

4. A non-transitory computer readable medium comprising instructions stored thereon which when executed by a processor of a command code management device configure the command code management device to implement a method comprising:

receiving, by the management device, a command code from a first terminal, the command code resulting from a coding of a command; and

determining a second terminal that is associated with the first terminal for command code management with the first terminal based on the received command code;

generating a command signal based on the received command code that includes the command; and

transmitting the command signal from the management device to the second terminal for execution of the command of the command code and for displaying a result of an execution of the command of the command code, the command code having been received by the first terminal prior to the transmitting of the command signal and after associating the first terminal and the second terminal,

wherein the first terminal, the second terminal and the management device are separate devices.

5. A command code management device, comprising:

a receiver configured to receive a command code from a first terminal, the command code resulting from a coding of a command;

a processor configured to:

determine a second terminal that is associated with the first terminal for command code management with the first terminal based on the received command code; and

generate a command signal based on the received command code that includes the command; and

a transmitter configured to transmit the command signal from the command code management device to the second terminal for execution of the command of the command code and for displaying a result of an execution of the command code after receiving the command code from the first terminal and after associating the first terminal and the second terminal,

wherein the first terminal, the second terminal and the management device are separate devices.

6. The command code management device as claimed in claim 5 , comprising:

a process loader, configured to load a control process to the second terminal and a remote read process to the first terminal; and

a register configured to register associated terminals, comprising the first terminal and the second terminal,

wherein the processor determines the second terminal that is associated with the first terminal using the register.

7. The command code management device as claimed in claim 6 , wherein the process loader is configured to trigger a transmission by the second terminal to the command code management device when loading the control process to the second terminal.

8. The command code management device as claimed in claim 6 , wherein the transmitter is configured to transmit an installation signal to the first terminal, the installation signal making it possible for the command code management device to load a remote read process to the first terminal.

9. A second terminal that has been associated for command code management with a first terminal from which a command code is received by a command code management device, the second terminal comprising:

a receiver configured to receive a command signal, which is based on the command code, from the command code management device, the command code resulting from a coding of a command received by the first terminal prior to the reception of the command signal and after the association of the first terminal and the second terminal; and

a processor configured to obtain the command from the command signal and execute the command,

wherein the first terminal, the second terminal and the management device are separate devices.

10. The second terminal as claimed in the claim 9 , comprising a coupler configured to associate the first terminal and the second terminal to form associated terminals, and to transmit a signal representative of identities of the associated terminals to the command code management device prior to the first terminal receiving the command code.

11. A first terminal comprising:

a command code reader configured to receive a command; and

a command code transmitter for transmitting a command code, which is a coding of the command, to a command code management device,

wherein:

the command code reader commanding the command code transmitter upon receipt of the command code; and

the command code transmitted by the first terminal being configured to trigger transmission, by the command code management device, a command signal, which is based on the command code, to a second terminal for execution of the command of the command code and for displaying a result of an execution of the command;

the second terminal being associated with the first terminal for command code management;

the command code having been received by the first terminal prior to the transmission of the command code by the first device and after the association of the first terminal and the second terminal; and

the first terminal, the second terminal and the management device are separate devices.
