Abstract

PURPOSE:To reset the function without starting up a controlled unit again even in the case of abnormality of transmission of a remote controller when the transmission is restored by always transmitting a control signal by the remote controller so as to produce a reproducing picture and deciding a standby state corresponding to the time of interruption of the signal. CONSTITUTION:The control signal is always transmitted from the remote controller 1 or 2 to a remote controller signal receiving part 3 fitted to the magnetic recording and reproducing device 4 during a person 6 is watching a reproducing picture of the device 4. The reproducing picture is reproduced by the device 4 during receiving the control signal. However, when the person 6 has left the spot, the reproducing is stopped by the device 4 if the control signal is not received for a given period of time, and a rewinding operation is performed for the time of interruption of the signal to become a still picture state. When the control signal is restored, the reproducing picture is on, but when the control signal is not received even for a further fixed period of time, the picture is stopped and the power is cut off.

Description

Detailed Description of the Invention

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a magnetic recording / reproducing apparatus with a remote control function, and more particularly to a control function of the magnetic recording / reproducing apparatus when an abnormality occurs in transmission.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art The above-mentioned prior art is disclosed in JP-A-60-1658.
As described in Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 95, when there is an abnormality during remote controller transmission, the controlled device is to be stopped.

[0003]

In the above-mentioned prior art, when the remote controller transmission error occurs for a short time, the controlled device remains stopped, and no consideration is given when the transmission is normalized. .

It is an object of the present invention to restore the function of the controlled device without restarting it even if the remote controller transmission error occurs for a short time and the transmission is restored.

[0005]

The above object can be achieved by providing the controlled device with a timer function so that the operating function of the controlled device can be set according to the time of the abnormal transmission state.

[0006]

In the present invention, the control signal is always transmitted by the remote control, and the timer controls the operation of the controlled device by observing the control signal. Therefore, even if the transmission is interrupted for a short time, the controlled device does not immediately stop. .

[0007]

Embodiments of the present invention will be described below with reference to FIGS.

FIG. 1 shows an embodiment of the present invention.
Reference numerals 2 and 2 are remote controllers, and while the person 6 is watching the reproduction image of the magnetic recording / reproducing apparatus 4, the magnetic recording / reproducing apparatus 4
A control signal is always transmitted to a remote controller receiver 3 of the above. The magnetic recording / reproducing apparatus 4 reproduces the reproduced image while receiving the control signal of the remote controller, but when the person 6 leaves the place, the magnetic recording / reproducing apparatus 4 must receive the control signal for a certain period of time. Stop playback,
When the control signal is interrupted, a rewind operation is performed to enter a still image state. When the control signal is restored, the image is reproduced again. However, if the control signal is not received within a certain period of time, the control signal is stopped and the power is turned off.

FIG. 2 is a block diagram of an embodiment, in which an ultrasonic or infrared control signal is transmitted from the remote controller 7, data is received by the receiver 8 and sent to the timer 9, and data is received by the timer 9. The timer 9 that checks whether the power is interrupted and counts the time issues an instruction to the system control 10 according to the length of the interrupted time, and the system control 10 controls the motor 11 according to the instruction of the timer 9.

[0010]

According to the present invention, since the reproduction is performed only while a person is watching, even if the person sleeps on the way, the scene can be reproduced immediately.
