1. A remote control for controlling operations of an adjustable bed having first and second bed units, wherein the first and second bed units have first and second controllers for controlling operations of the first and second bed units, respectively, comprising:
a mode control switch, wherein the mode control switch has three position states including a right (R) side position, a middle position and a left (L) side position, and is operably slidable in one of the three position states;
a monitoring unit configured to detect the position state of the mode control switch; and
a control unit coupled to the monitoring unit and configured to determine a control mode of the adjustable bed according to the position state of the mode control switch detected by the monitoring unit, and send a matching instruction to one or both of the first and second controllers of the first and second bed units based on the determined control mode so as to establish a matching connection of the remote control with said one or both of the first and second controllers.
