Patent ID: 7486888

Claim:
A transmission method for identifying infrared transmission head functions through an infrared controller coupled to an infrared transmission head, said method comprising the following steps: setting said infrared controller in a test circuit mode; selecting a test brand name and its corresponding test transmission mode of the infrared transmission head among a plurality of brand names; executing an operation of programming said infrared controller according to the test transmission mode corresponding to the test brand name of said infrared transmission head; said infrared controller's sending out transmission test data corresponding to the test brand name to the infrared transmission head; said infrared controller's receiving test data according to the test transmission mode corresponding to the test brand name of said infrared transmission head; registering said test brand name and associated test transmission mode of said infrared transmission head when said transmission test data and said received test data are identical; and operating said infrared transmission head according to the registered test brand name and test transmission mode of said infrared transmission head; wherein said infrared controller's sending out transmission test data and said infrared controller's receiving test data occur concurrently.
