A remote signaling receiver system includes a receiver that operates in
two different modes of demodulation to accommodate different types of
signals from different types of transmitting devices. A first
demodulator, preferably an ASK demodulator, is adapted to process signals
from a signal transmitter that generates a first type of signal. A second
demodulator, preferably one that is not sensitive to amplitude modulation
such as a FSK demodulator, is adapted to process signals received from at
least one other type of device, which provides a second type of signal. A
system designed according to this invention is particularly useful as a
remote keyless entry system for a vehicle where one or more sensors are
provided on the vehicle to provide an indication of a chosen condition of
one or more of the vehicle components.
