[0025] This utility model uses four buttons. When a button is pressed, the pin of the control chip U1 changes from high level to low level. The control chip U1 detects the change in the electrical frequency of the corresponding pin and executes the corresponding function.

[0026] It also includes a communication circuit 4, which is connected to the selection circuit. The communication circuit 4 includes a first optocoupler IC1, which is connected to the transmitter port of the control chip U1.
