Claim Text:
1. A wireless control system, for wireless control of a remote electronic system, configured to provide information to a user using a single multi-colored LED, comprising: a trainable transmitter circuit configured to transmit a wireless control signal having control data which will control the remote electronic system; a user interface device including one or more buttons; and a control circuit coupled to the trainable transmitter circuit and to the user interface device, the control circuit having a plurality of states comprising a training mode state, a first operating mode state in which the wireless control system is configured to control a first remote electronic system, and a second operating mode state in which the wireless control system is configured to control a second remote electronic system; wherein the control circuit is configured to receive a user input at a selected button of the one or more buttons, wherein the control circuit is configured to process the user input to determine whether the user input is an instruction to cause a change between the plurality of states or an instruction to transmit a wireless control signal formatted to control a remote electronic system, wherein in response to receiving the user input at the selected button, the control circuit is configured to cause the trainable transmitter circuit to transmit a first wireless control signal formatted to control the first remote electronic system based on a currently active state of the plurality of states being the first operating mode state and the user input being an instruction to transmit a wireless control signal, wherein in response to receiving the user input at the same selected button, the control circuit is configured to cause the trainable transmitter circuit to transmit a second wireless control signal formatted to control the second remote electronic system based on the currently active state being the second operating mode state and the user input being an instruction to transmit a wireless control signal, wherein in response to receiving the user input at the same selected button, the control circuit is configured to change the currently active state based on the user input being an instruction to change between the plurality of states, wherein the control circuit is configured to control operation of the single multi-colored LED to provide an indication of the currently active state, and wherein the control circuit is configured to cause the single multi-colored LED to change the indication in response to the user input being an instruction to change between the plurality of states.
