Abstract: A method of changing an association of a remote control device from a first electronic device to a second electronic device is presented. In the method, a command for an electronic device is generated and transmitted by the remote control device. At this point, the remote control device is associated with the first electronic device to control the first electronic device, and the remote control device is not associated with the second electronic device. If an acknowledgment of the command is not received, a request to associate the remote control device with another electronic device is transmitted. A reply to the request is then received from the second electronic device. In response to the reply, the remote control device is disassociated from the first electronic device and associated with the second electronic device.

Abstract translation: 提出了一种将遥控设备从第一电子设备改变为第二电子设备的方法。 在该方法中，由遥控装置生成电子装置的指令并进行发送。 此时，远程控制设备与第一电子设备相关联以控制第一电子设备，并且遥控设备不与第二电子设备相关联。 如果没有接收到该命令的确认，则发送将遥控设备与另一电子设备相关联的请求。 然后从第二电子设备接收对该请求的回复。 响应于该答复，远程控制设备与第一电子设备分离并与第二电子设备相关联。

Abstract: Systems and methods are operable to initiate a pairing process and a de-pairing process between a controlled device and a radio frequency (RF) remote control. An exemplary embodiment detects presence of a radio frequency identifier (RFID) tag in an interrogation zone established by an RFID tag reader, automatically initiates a pairing process in response to detecting the presence of the RFID tag in the interrogation zone, and completes the pairing process between the RF remote control and the controlled device, wherein the pairing process identifies a unique identifier associated with the RF remote control. A subsequently received RF signal emitted by the RF remote control includes at least one command configured to control operation of the controlled device and includes the unique identifier.
