Abstract
Computer readable media, methods and apparatuses may be configured for establishing a communication session between a computing device (e.g., a display device) and a remote control device using a signaling frequency. The computing device and the remote control device may be paired based on a pairing request and a pairing response message. The pairing request may comprise address data of the remote control device and address data of the computing device.
Claims20
A method comprising:
- receiving, by a computing device and from a remote control device, a data packet;
- determining that the data packet comprises:
- identifier data that identifies an alternative signaling frequency, and
- address data of the remote control device;
- sending, to the remote control device, a pairing request comprising:
- the address data of the remote control device, and
- address data of the computing device;
- receiving, from the remote control device, a pairing response message;
- and
- based on the pairing response message, establishing a communication session, with the remote control device, using the alternative signaling frequency.
7 more elements
An apparatus comprising:
- one or more processors;
- and
- memory storing instructions that, when executed by the one or more processors, cause the apparatus to:
- receive, from a remote control device, a data packet;
- determine that the data packet comprises:
- identifier data that identifies an alternative signaling frequency, and
- address data of the remote control device;
- send, to the remote control device, a pairing request comprising:
- the address data of the remote control device, and
- address data of the apparatus;
- receive, from the remote control device, a pairing response message;
- and
- based on the pairing response message, establish a communication session, with the remote control device, using the alternative signaling frequency.
10 more elements
A non-transitory computer-readable medium storing instructions that, when executed, cause:
- receiving, from a remote control device, a data packet;
- determining that the data packet comprises:
- identifier data that identifies an alternative signaling frequency, and
- address data of the remote control device;
- sending, to the remote control device, a pairing request comprising:
- the address data of the remote control device, and
- address data of a computing device;
- receiving, from the remote control device, a pairing response message;
- and
- based on the pairing response message, establishing a communication session, with the remote control device, using the alternative signaling frequency.
