  • Publication number: 20060142879
    Abstract: A method and an apparatus for controlling a digital electronic product, using a control signal transmitter and a signal receiver combined with a gate system for controlling a digital home appliance, such that a system activation/inactivation control mechanism is established. The on/off status of the gate system is remotely controlled by the control signal transmitter. In the process of switching off the gate system, a basic input/output system (BIOS) for executing switching on/off is used to detect whether the external connecting port is connected to a signal receiver. When the system is in the off status, the electric connection to the signal receiver is maintained, such that the activation control signal from the control signal transmitter can be received any time. Thereby, the signal status of the signal receiver can be changed to automatically switch on the gate system, and the control signal transmitter can thus remotely control operation of the digital home appliance.

  • Publication number: 20060093018
    Abstract: A method of preventing interference of signal transmission of electronic input devices, using a receiving unit that has multiple frequency channels to connect a host. The receiving unit is accompanied with software program to set up one sequence of frequency-hopping channels for each type of electronic devices such as mouse, keyboard, remote control and audio input device. The software program also defined one of the frequency-hopping channels. as a starting receiving frequency channel. When a signal is transmitted from a specific type of electronic devices, the receiving unit switches the frequency to its starting receiving frequency channel for receiving such signal. When the signal has been interfered, the receiving unit automatically hops the frequency to the next available hopping frequency channel of the specific type of electronic devices until the interference is eliminated.

  • Publication number: 20060093063
    Abstract: A method of preventing interference of signals transmitted from electronic input devices to a computer host. An identification is generated for each individual electronic device. A receiving unit is connected to the computer host. The identification frequencies are pre-stored in the receiving unit. The receiving unit performs scanning of signals transmitted from the electronic devices with a scanning cycle. The receiving unit switches between a plurality of detection sequences within each scanning cycle. When signals are transmitted from the electronic devices, the receiving unit receives the signals within the detection sequences corresponding to the electronic devices that transmitting the signals. The identification frequencies carried by the signals are compared to the pre-stored identification frequencies to ensure the signals being received at respective frequency channels.

  • Publication number: 20050176935
    Abstract: The identification and use of two major DNA-PKcs autophosphorylation sites. Threonine (T) 2609 and Serine (S) 2056, including antibodies specific for phosphorylated T2609 and 52056. Peptides and polynucleotides encoding same, that feature these two sites of phosphorylation. The antibodies do not bind to the unphosphorylated DNA-PKcs protein or peptide, thus providing diagnostic tools to monitor the effectiveness of treatments which target the DNA repair pathway of cancer cells, and the ability to intervene or inhibit in phosphorylation of T2609 or 52056, either through application of a drug or an antibody, to increase the radiosensitivity of cancer cells.
