2. The broadcast signal receiving apparatus of claim 1, the user input to change the power state of the broadcast signal receiving apparatus is a command to turn off the broadcast signal receiving apparatus, and the processor is configured to, in response to the command to turn off the broadcast signal receiving apparatus being received via the user input unit, control the communicator to transmit the second signal which indicates the broadcast signal receiving apparatus is turned off to the remote control device, and turn off the broadcast signal receiving apparatus after transmitting the second signal.
3. The broadcast signal receiving apparatus of claim 1, the user input to change the power state of the broadcast signal receiving apparatus is a command to turn on the broadcast signal receiving apparatus, and the processor is configured to, in response to the command to turn on the broadcast signal receiving apparatus being received via the user input unit, control the communicator to transmit the second signal which indicates the broadcast signal receiving apparatus is turned on to the remote control device, and turn on the broadcast signal receiving apparatus after transmitting the second signal.
4. The broadcast signal receiving apparatus of claim 1, wherein the user input unit comprises at least one button to turn off the broadcast signal receiving apparatus, which is provided on the broadcast signal receiving apparatus.
5. The broadcast signal receiving apparatus of claim 1, wherein the second signal is a signal indicating the power state that the broadcast signal receiving apparatus is to be changed to.
6. The broadcast signal receiving apparatus of claim 4, wherein in response to a signal for turning off the broadcast signal receiving apparatus based on user's manipulation with respect to the button being received via the user input unit, the processor controls the communicator to transmit a signal to the remote control device having at least one motion sensor to cause the remote control device to change an operation mode of the at least one motion sensor.
7. The broadcast signal receiving apparatus of claim 6, wherein the communicator is a radio frequency (RF) communicator.
8. A method for controlling a broadcast signal receiving apparatus, the method comprising: processing a broadcast signal to generate a video image; controlling a display of the broadcast signal receiving apparatus to display a cursor on the generated video image; in response to receiving, via a communicator of the broadcast signal receiving apparatus, a first signal from a remote control device, controlling a display position of the cursor based on the first signal; receiving, in response to a user selection of a user input unit of the broadcast signal receiving apparatus, a user input to change a power state of the broadcast signal receiving apparatus; in response to the receiving the user input, transmitting via the communicator to the remote control device a second signal to control an operation state of the remote control device, and changing the power state of a processor of the broadcast signal receiving apparatus after transmitting the second signal.
9. The method of claim 8, wherein the user input to change the power state of the broadcast signal receiving apparatus is a command to turn off the broadcast signal receiving apparatus, and the transmitting comprises, in response to the command to turn off the broadcast signal receiving apparatus being received via the user input unit, transmitting the signal which indicates the broadcast signal receiving apparatus is turned off to the remote control device, and turning off the broadcast signal receiving apparatus after transmitting the second signal.
10. The method of claim 8, wherein the user input to change the power state of the broadcast signal receiving apparatus is a command to turn on the broadcast signal receiving apparatus, and the transmitting includes, in response to the command to turn on the broadcast signal receiving apparatus being received via the user input unit, transmitting the second signal which indicates the broadcast signal receiving apparatus is turned on to the remote control device, and turning on the broadcast signal receiving apparatus after transmitting the second signal.
11. The method of claim 8, wherein the receiving the user input comprises receiving the user input via at least one button to turn off the broadcast signal receiving apparatus, which is provided on the broadcast signal receiving apparatus.
12. The method of claim 8, wherein the second signal is a signal indicating the power state that the broadcast signal receiving apparatus is to be changed to.
13. The method of claim 11, further comprising, in response to a signal for turning off the broadcast signal receiving apparatus based on user's manipulation with respect to the button being received, transmitting a signal to the remote control device having at least one motion sensor to cause the remote control device to change an operation mode of the at least one motion sensor.
14. The method of claim 13, wherein the transmitting the signal to the remote control device having at least one motion sensor comprises transmitting the signal via a radio frequency (RF) communicator of the broadcast signal receiving apparatus.
15. A non-transitory computer readable recording medium having recorded thereon a program that causes a broadcast signal receiving apparatus to execute a method for controlling the broadcast signal receiving apparatus, the method comprising: processing a broadcast signal to generate a video image; controlling a display of the broadcast signal receiving apparatus to display a cursor on the generated video image; in response to receiving, via a communicator of the broadcast signal receiving apparatus, a first signal from a remote control device, controlling a display position of the cursor based on the first signal; receiving, in response to a user selection of a user input unit of the broadcast signal receiving apparatus, a user input to change a power state of the broadcast signal receiving apparatus; in response to the receiving the user input, transmitting via the communicator to the remote control device a second signal to control an operation state of the remote control device, and changing the power state of a processor of the broadcast signal receiving apparatus after transmitting the second signal.
16. The non-transitory computer readable recording medium of claim 15, wherein the user input to change the power state of the broadcast signal receiving apparatus is a command to turn off the broadcast signal receiving apparatus, and the transmitting comprises, in response to the command to turn off the broadcast signal receiving apparatus being received via the user input unit, transmitting the signal which indicates the broadcast signal receiving apparatus is turned off to the remote control device, and turning off the broadcast signal receiving apparatus after transmitting the second signal.
17. The non-transitory computer readable recording medium of claim 15, wherein the user input to change the power state of the broadcast signal receiving apparatus is a command to turn on the broadcast signal receiving apparatus, and the transmitting includes, in response to the command to turn on the broadcast signal receiving apparatus being received via the user input unit, transmitting the second signal which indicates the broadcast signal receiving apparatus is turned on to the remote control device, and turning on the broadcast signal receiving apparatus after transmitting the second signal.
18. The non-transitory computer readable recording medium of claim 15, wherein the receiving the user input comprises receiving the user input via at least one button to turn off the broadcast signal receiving apparatus, which is provided on the broadcast signal receiving apparatus.
