ABSTRACT:
A remote controller for use with a piece of electronic equipment is locked by depressing a predetermined key mounted thereon for a predetermined amount of time. The remote controller includes a plurality of keys. If a user has depressed the predetermined key of the remote controller and does not depress another key within the predetermined amount of time, the remote controller and the electronic equipment will execute an entering/releasing locking mode operation. Alternatively, however, in cases where the user depresses another key within the predetermined amount of time after depression of the predetermined key, the remote controller operates in a normal operation mode.
