ABSTRACT:
A wireless remote-control transmitter includes means for entering an identification code so that only an authorized operator can use the device. Use as a keyless entry system provides the owner of a wireless receiver with an additional keypad-operated transmitter which may be vehicle mounted to perform some or all of the same functions as those available through an existing remote. In this embodiment, the keypad may be mounted behind a small section of the vehicle's window glass, with command inputs being sensed using electrical, magnetic, or optical detection techniques. To save on battery power, the system automatically powers down during periods of non-use, with some form of wake-up signal being used to enter operational modes requiring increased power consumption. The transmitter may also be mounted in the trunk, preferably with an illuminated or glow-in-the-dark trunk unlock button and without the need for entry of an authorization code, thereby enabling a child, for example, to unlock the trunk from within without having to hardwire the car for this capability.
