Abstract :
The use of a menu-driven control for selection and adjustment in TV receivers and video recorders is proposed. The experimental interactive infrared remote control unit described uses a single-button arrangement. The design of the unit, the appearance of the menu, and the hierarchy of possible functions are shown. A simple illustration of how to use this control is given.
