Abstract
A remote control device includes a signal generating device for supplying signals to a processor device, to actuate the processor device to generate and to output a low signal and a high signal, an initializing device including a transistor coupled to the processor device, a diac coupled to the collector of the transistor, and an oscillating device having two or more transistors coupled between the diac and one or more halogen lamps, for energizing the halogen lamps alternatively. The diac may be actuated with different operating times in order to adjust the brightness of the halogen lamps.
