Appl. No.:

10/419615

Inventors:

Douglas Macrae - Weston MA, US
Wing Leung - Arcadia CA, US
Henry Yuen - Pasadena CA, US

Assignee:

Gemstar Development Corporation

International Classification:

H04N007/16

US Classification:

725/025000

Abstract:

A television control system automatically tunes a television set to receive and display a desired program telecast at a future time. This is done by keying in a PLUS CODE™ number defining the channel, time, day, and length (CTDL data) of the program or selecting the program from an on-screen program guide to capture the CTDL data from an EPG data base stored in memory. The CTDL data is stored in a stack memory until the time of the program. The microprocessor monitors the stack memory. The microprocessor tunes the television set to the channel on which the desired program is telecast and turns the television set on at the time of the desired program. If the television set is already on at the time of the desired program, the television set is not turned off at the conclusion of the desired program, i.e., it remains on. However, if the television set is off at the time of the desired program, the television set is turned off again at the conclusion of the desired program. This results in the television set not being left on when the residents are away from home while the scheduled tuning feature is being used.

International Classification:

G06F 1/30

US Classification:

713340000

Abstract:

A personal computer protection device for disconnecting a computer system from a communications channel during power down periods. The personal computer protection device includes a power sensor for sensing power drawn by the computer system, an input port for connecting to a communications channel, an output for connecting the input port to a communications channel input of the computer system and a relay connected between the input port and output port. The relay selectively disconnects the input port and output port when the sensor senses the power drawn is below a threshold value thereby indicating the computer system is in a powered down or sleep state.
