Abstract
This invention pertains to a controlling device for operating various appliances. It includes a personal computer, which is programmed to provide for regulation of the sequence of operations of various electrical devices, such as a controller, the controller functions to initiate or turn OFF a relay or switching electronics device, which can provide for the operations of an appliance, whether it be an industrial or household appliance, or appliances that are used specifically in the entertainment field, such as a scent emitting device, a dimmer, a misting mechanism, and a vibratory motor. These are examples.
Claims7
A universal control system with universal interface to operate at least one appliance in the entertainment field, said system including a personal computer, said personal computer being programmed to provide for initiating the operations of a sequence of operations upon said at least one appliance, said appliance including one of a mister, dimmer, scent delivering apparatus, and a vibratory motor for use in said entertainment field, a relay switching electronic means with integrated controller operatively connected with the said personal computer, and said relay/switching controller electrically connected with an AC type operated appliance, a main source of electrical energy electrically connected with the personal computer, the relay/switching means, and the said appliance, and which when initiated, the personal computer being programmed to provide for selective functioning of a mister, dimmer, scent delivering apparatus, and vibratory motor, a backup AC source connected to the system and alternatively provided for operations of the relay/switching means and controller, and with the personal computer, to provide electrical means to operate said selected appliances in the event of a main electrical source failure.
A universal control system with universal interface to operate at least one appliance in the entertainment field, said system including a personal computer, said personal computer being programmed to provide for initiating the operation of a sequence of operations upon said at least one appliance, said appliance including one of a mister, dimmer, scent delivering apparatus, and a vibratory motor for use in said entertainment field, a relay switching electronic means with integrated controller operatively connected with said personal computer, and said relay/switching controller electrically connecting with a DC type operated appliance, a source of DC electrical energy electrically connected with said personal computer, the relay/switching means, and said appliance, and which when initiated, the personal computer being programmed to provide for selective functioning of said mister, dimmer, scent delivering apparatus, and said vibratory motor, a backup DC source connected to the system and electrically connected to the relay/switching means and controller, and with the personal computer, to provide electrical energy to operate said selected appliance in the event of a main electrical source failure.
