A remote controlling device includes a micro-controller; a transmitter coupled to the micro-controller to selectively transmit a control signal that controls the lighting of a lamp string, the transmitter comprising an encoder for coding the control signal; a preset lighting mode memory coupled to the micro-controller to store preset lighting modes; and lighting control program memory coupled to the micro-controller to store lighting control programs, each comprised of at least one lighting mode selected from the preset lighting mode memory. A user may operate a plurality of selection switches to select the preset lighting modes and the lighting control programs from the memories. Actuation of a transmission button allows for transmission of the control signal that carries the lighting control program selected from the lighting control program memory toward a receiver of the lamp control module of the lamp string in a wireless manner for controlling the lighting of the lamp string.
