Abstract

A remote control, particularly for wireless remote control of a closing device in a motor vehicle, has a first transmitter for outputting an optical signal, and a second transmitter for outputting a radio signal. The two transmitters are able to be activated for signal output by at least one actuation element. An input of the first transmitter and/or of the second transmitter is connected to a clock transmitter in order to output the optical signal and/or the radio signal in pulsed fashion at particular intervals of time in order to save energy. Also an associated remotely controllable device and a full remote control configuration are disclosed.
