Patent ID: 8187113

Claim:
An apparatus for identifying a pin position on a golf course, comprising: light-emitting means coupled to an upper end of a pin pole and configured to identify a pin position, the light-emitting means including a wireless transmit/receive portion and a unique ID; and a remote control unit that remotely controls lighting and lights-out of the light-emitting means for identifying the pin position in a wireless manner, wherein the remote control unit comprises: a wireless transmit/receive portion; a batch registration key for batchly registering a plurality of light-emitting means; a selective registration key for selectively registering the light-emitting means; a control object-setting portion that selects light-emitting means to be controlled; an execution button that instructs the lighting and lights-out of the light-emitting means; and a remote controller which controls a unique ID of the light-emitting means to be controlled, which is wirelessly received through scanning in a registration mode, to be registered in an internal memory by matching the unique ID to a remote control object ID of the control object-setting portion, and wirelessly transmits a lighting and lights-out command to light-emitting means having a unique ID, which matches to the remote control object ID registered in the internal memory, through the wireless transmit/receive portion when an execution button is pressed, wherein when the registration mode is operated through the batch registration key, the remote controller scans unique IDs of the plurality of light-emitting means to be registered, matches remote control object IDs to the scanned unique IDs on a basis of unique ID values, and registers matched IDs in the internal memory; and wherein when the registration mode is operated through the selective registration key, the remote controller scans a unique ID of the light-emitting means to be registered, matches a remote control object ID selected by a user to the scanned unique ID, and registers matched IDs in the internal memory.
