Problems solved by technology

In order to accurately control the ZigBee devices in the system, the third-party control system needs to determine the address of the ZigBee device, but because the ZigBee device can be divided into different groups and scenarios in the device control system, the address of the ZigBee device is also more complicated, so the first The three-party control system has to deal with the address of the more complex ZigBee network, which makes the workload larger

Embodiment 1

[0046] Provides a device control method, mainly for such as figure 1 The shown device control system for short-distance wireless communication, such as the ZigBee system, includes a control device and multiple functional devices, and the control device can control the functional device to perform a certain function through short-distance wireless communication technology. Further, in order to enable the third-party control system to control the functional devices in the device control system, the device control system may also include converters, such as ZigBee converters, etc., to connect the devices in the device control system (including functional devices and control device) and third-party control systems. One end of the converter can be connected to a third-party control system through a USB interface, a serial interface such as an RS-232 interface or an Ethernet interface, and the other end can be connected to equipment in the equipment control system through a short-di...

Embodiment 2

[0071] Provide a device control method, which can be mainly applied to such as figure 1 The control method of the functional equipment in the system shown, the method in this embodiment is a method performed by a third-party control equipment, and the flow chart is as follows Image 6 shown, including:

[0072] Step 201, acquire the logical address of the controlled device, the logical address includes information about the type to which the controlled device belongs and the identifier of the controlled device within the type, where the controlled device is a functional device in the device control system.

[0073] The third-party control system can request the converter to obtain the logical address of the functional device (that is, the above-mentioned controlled device) added to the device control system.

[0074] Step 202, send the first control command to the converter in the device control system, the first control command includes the logical address of the controlled ...

Abstract

A device control method, system, and converter and a third-party control system, applicable in the technical field of communications. The device controlling method: a physical address of a controlled device is looked up by the converter on the basis of a logical address of the controlled device comprised in a first control command transmitted by the third-party control system and of a preset correspondence relationship between a physical address and a logical address of a functional device in the device control system; and, the first control command is transmitted to the controlled device on the basis of the physical address of the physical address that is looked up so as to instruct the controlled device to execute the first control command. As the logical address is employed to determine a certain controlled device that is controlled by the third-party control system, while the logical address also comprises information of the type to which the controlled device belongs and an identification of the controlled device in the type, and an increased degree of unification in format is provided, the need for the third-party control system to process the complex physical address of the functional device in the device control system is obviated, thus reducing the workload of the third-party control system.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of communication technology, in particular to a device control method, a system, a converter and a third-party control system. Background technique [0002] ZigBee wireless technology is a wireless network protocol technology for low-speed and short-distance transmission. It is widely used in more and more products, especially in equipment control systems. It can be controlled by a controller or a third-party control system through ZigBee communication technology. Access the ZigBee device in the device control system for control. [0003] Wherein, if a third-party control system is used to control the ZigBee device in the device control system, a ZigBee converter is required to connect the communication between the third-party control system and the ZigBee device. In order to accurately control the ZigBee devices in the system, the third-party control system needs to determine the address of the ZigBee device, but be...
