From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia · Read full article · Text CC BY-SA 4.0

A telecommand or telecontrol is a command sent to control a remote system or systems not directly connected to the place from which the telecommand is sent. The word is derived from tele = remote (Greek), and command = to entrust/order (Latin). Systems that need remote measurement and reporting of information of interest to the system designer or operator require the counterpart of telecommand, telemetry. The telecommand can be done in real time or not depending on the circumstances, as was the case of Marsokhod.
