Abstract

The remote control signal reception controller receives control data transmitted from a remote control signal sender. The remote control signal reception controller informs a CPU that controls a device of the information on the received control data by interrupting the CPU. When doing so, the remote control signal reception controller judges whether a piece of control data that has just been received and a preceding piece of control data were consecutively transmitted, and whether these two pieces of control data are the same control data. The remote control signal reception controller interrupts the CPU only once when finding that the same control data is continuously transmitted as the result of this judgement.
