Its easy-to-use touch screen with 256 colors and its intuitive interface makes it a perfect remote control for every user. The Remote Control (RC) is completely customizable. In the memory of the Remote Control, RC codes are stored to activate different brands for all kinds of video and audio devices. The Remote Control is set up by default to operate with Philips or Marantz devices. When you have other brands, you simply define the brands of your devices when you use the Remote Control for the first time. The Remote Control can also learn RC codes from existing remote controls. It is designed to add devices and functions, relabel buttons, record macros and set timers. With the ProntoPro Edit software you create your own control panels and define your personal look. If you want to operate devices from a distance or from an adjacent room, you can use the Remote Control with radio frequency (RF) signals and an RF Extender.

All people with sufficient knowledge of the application domain should understand this document. 1.2 Edition history Version Status Date Author Modification(s) 0.1 Draft 2000-11-06 PGP Initial revision 0.2 Draft 2000-11-22 PGP Changes after review 1.0 Approved 2000-11-29 PGP Changes after review 2.0 Approved 2002-05-14 JWO Update for IR/RF RCMM code sequence, adapted for 36 kHz carrier only 1.3 Definitions, acronyms and abbreviations RCS Remote Control Systems IR Infra Red RF Radio Frequency OTP One Time Programmable ROM Read Only Memory RS232 Serial communication protocol RAM Random Access Memory uP Micro processor MSG Code Remote Control Systems RF Explanation Specification RF transmitting module SD-0000-JWO23 5/11 2.0, Approved 1.4 Reference documents [FEAS_FLASH] Title Feasibility Flash codes for Blaster Document ID SD-xxxx Author Peter Griep Publisher RCS Version 0.1 Date 2000-10-23 [RF_IR_EXT] Title Software Requirement Specification RF/IR Extender Document ID SD-7519-JWO02 Author Wouters, Johan Publisher RCS Version 0.2 Date 1999-07-13 Remote Control Systems RF Explanation Specification RF transmitting module SD-0000-JWO23 6/11 2.0, Approved 2. General product description 2.1 Product perspective The product, hereafter referred to as RF transmitter, comprises of a HW module including SW. The RF transmitter transmits RF control signals. The module can be built in as such or be integrated on a PWB of a control device (e.g. remote control). It will be used in conjunction with a receiving device that does a conversion of the transmitted RF control signal into IR control signals for controlling legacy IR reception devices (e.g. VCR, TV, STB, PreAmp,... ). 2.2 Product functions The function of the RF transmitter is to provide user control over devices that are not in line of sight, as is needed by legacy IR devices (VCR, TV, ...). Dedicated RF codes are transmitted and converted to any of the legacy IR protocols that are known by the RF receiving device. The receiver converts it back into the original IR codes and transmits those to the legacy IR reception devices. The RF transmitter is designed to carry IR codes over RF to RF receiving devices. The HW- SW combination used in the RF transmitter does not support any other type of transmission such as data transfer. 2.3 User characteristics The product will be used in the house. Users of the RF transmitter can be adults or kids. They have no particular technical expertise. 2.4 General technical constraints The product uses a fixed RF frequency that is in the license-free ISM band. No physical RF channels are provided so interference may occur with neighbouring devices that are transmitting at the same RF frequency. To limit susceptibility to neighbouring devices the RF codes must have a device ID and home ID where the product will check on at reception. The chosen ISM band frequency is subject to the RF emission standards, which may be different for different countries. Therefore the product hardware is configured specifically for use in a particularly country. Due to the limitations of the hardware, some specific IR codes cannot be transmitted correctly by the product. The specific IR codes are flash codes with a pulse totaltime of less than 286 μs, see also [FEAS_FLASH]. 2.5 Assumptions and dependencies Remote Control Systems RF Explanation Specification RF transmitting module SD-0000-JWO23 7/11 2.0, Approved Assumed is that the RF transmitter is able to handle all IR codes from the RCS universal codeset lookup table, with exception of some IR codes, see paragraph: general constraints. Next to that the RF transmitter should be able to handle any IR code that is learned by the user and stored on the transmitting device. Remote Control Systems RF Explanation Specification RF transmitting module SD-0000-JWO23 8/11 2.0, Approved 3. Functional requirements 3.1 Description of processes The RF transmitter generates two different RF codes parts to specify 1 legacy IR code to be generated by an RF/IR extender. The first RF codes part consists of a set of recognition codes that uses the RCMM IR-RF format (specified below) modulated at 36kHz to describe the carrier period of the legacy IR code. The second RF codes part consists of IR control codes (modulated over RF). These codes are hereafter referred to as the control envelope. The control envelope comprises of the envelope of legacy IR control code modulated at 36kHz. 3.1.1 Recognition code fo…

Functional description TSU6000 1) General description of device The TSU6000 is a color LCD touch screen universal remote control. It is intended to operated a large variety of TV’s, VCR’s, hi-fi combinations,... To minimize the number of hard buttons, an LCD is used to display the buttons and a touch screen will sense whether a button is pressed. It also offers an intuitive user interface. In order to accommodate a wide range of brands, a database is include to pick the right code set for a particular device. To be future proof, the user has the possibility to update the database and/or software in the device by connecting the TSU6000 via a cable to the serial com port of a PC. With the included software (Pronto Edit), the user can customize his device. Next to having a database, the device is also capable of learning IR (infrared) codes via an infrared receiver. The received code is stored aboard the flash memory. While the larger part of the controlled devices by the TSU6000 are controlled by infrared, the TSU6000 is also capable of sending out codes via RF. This operates in combination with a remote control extender, which is sold separately. The power source for this device is a rechargable battery pack (4 x AAA NiMH pack with temperature sensor and poly fuse). The TSU6000 is combined with the DS6000, which is the battery charger for this device. 2) Main use This device is a standalone remote control device, for indoor use only. When upgrading the software or user interface, it has to be linked via the included cable to the com port of a PC. When the battery is empty, it must be recharged with the included docking device. 3) Circuit description The function of the device is build around the Motorola Dragonball uP (IC 7001). Via its build in memory controller, it uses 512KB SRAM (IC 7006) and 8 MB of flash memory (IC 7059). The Flash is used as storage for the database, programs and learned IR codes. The SRAM is used to run the programs from and to hold copies of the flash blocks. An additional footprint to add memory is provided, but not used in this device (IC7005). IC 7067 is the glue logic between uP and memory. In stead of using the on board LCD controller, there is chosen to use an external LCD controller: this is IC 7060. It is attached on the memory and data bus of the uP. An image is build in a particular address space of the uP and translated by the LCD controller in order to display a bitmap on the color LCD. The color LCD is attached to the pwb via connector 1002. The clock needed to operate the LCD controller comes from the uP and is 8MHz. The clock frequency to operate the uP is derived from a low frequency crystal: 32.768 kHz. Via the internal PLL from the uP, this is multiplied to 16.6 MHz. This clock does NOT leaves the uP. The hardware round components 7066 and 3125 are to power down the LCD when the device is in the sleep mode and also regulate the contrast of the LCD. IC 7004 is a touch screen controller: it has 4 connections to the LCD via connector 1002. It provides x and y coordinates to the uP via the SPI port of the uP. Via the auxiliary input of ic 7004, the battery voltage is measured to estimate the remained capacity of the battery. ESD protection of the touch screen is provides via diodes 6001...6004. The generation of IR signals is proved by combining the PWM output of the uP with some glue logic (ic’s 7011, 7012, 7007, 7009): for an example of what the wave form looks likes: see next page. The carrier frequency is generated by the PWM of the uP. This is a square wave with a frequency between 36kHz and 455 kHz, dependent on the format of the IR code. Different brands use different carrier frequencies. Because the generated square wave can also be an audible signal, which goes to the piezo driver, a demultiplexer is used (IC 7007-A and –C). The output of the PWM goes via the multiplexer (IC 7009) to IRQ7 and TIN1. Each carrier pulse is counted and when the amount of carrier pulses equals the value of the compare register of the counter (which is in the uP), IC 7012 ( is commanded via TOUT of the uP) will stop the carrier from being transferred past IC 7007-B. Now the compare value in the counter register is set to the amount of pulses that are not allowed to be send out. Those pulses are count and when this value is reached, IC 7012 will command IC 7007B to let the pulses true again. In this way, any pulse train can be obtained which forms a command. The IC’s 7012 and 7071 forms a switch that direct the pulse train to the IR driver (transistors 7064 and 7013), or to the RF transmitter. There are two infrared receivers: 6010 and 6028. The 6010 is used to learn IR codes that are send out by other remotes on a short distance (typical 1 – 10 cm), while the 6028 is intended in two way infrared communication up to 10 meter. In order to attach the device to a communication port of a PC, it is necessary to convert the signal of the UART (in uP) that has a level between 0 and +3.3V, to an RS232 compatible level. The RS232 spec requires for a logic “1” a level between –15 and –3.3V, for a logic “0” a level between +3.3 and +15V. The transistors 7016, 7017 and 7018 will provide an output level between Vbat ( minimum + 4.2 V) and the voltage supplied by the TX of the PC. Additional components are used to guaranty ESD protection and to detect if the device is hooked up to a PC. A key matrix provides the device with some frequently used buttons such as volume up & down, channel up & down, page up & down,.. Some of the buttons are backlighted by LED’s (6042 to 6046). Example of IR protocol: The circuit around 7035 is the reset circuit for the uP. The tilt switches 1020 and 1026 will wake up the device if tilted under an angle of 40 º. The power management block has 3 main blocks: the voltage monitor IC 7028, The 3.3V LDO and the enable switch (7047 or 7024, 7029 and 7030). When the battery voltage is lower than 4.2V, IC 7028 will shut down the LDO (IC 7023) by opening th…
