A method and system for controlling multiple types of equipment

Abstract

The invention discloses a multi-class device control method and system and relates to the technical field of a computer. The method comprises the following specific steps: receiving a preset event message sent by a first device, and sending the preset event message to a message queue; obtaining the preset event message from the message queue through a preset monitoring program for monitoring the preset event message, generating a control message for a second device for executing an action triggered by the preset event message, and sending the control message to the message queue; and obtainingthe issued control message from the message queue, converting the obtained control message into a control instruction and sending the control instruction to the second device. The method can decoupledevices and enhance expandability, and can replace devices from different manufacturers without changing a multi-class device control system and without influencing other devices.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to the field of computer technology, in particular to a method and system for controlling multiple types of equipment, electronic equipment, and a computer-readable medium. Background technique [0002] With the development of science and technology, operating units such as warehouses or distribution centers have introduced a large number of smart devices, and these smart devices must coordinate to complete a business process. In a business process, there are usually many combinations of equipment in the same operation unit (such as warehouse, distribution center). For example, the sorting equipment in the distribution center can be provided by different sorting equipment manufacturers. In addition, the same category Devices may also need to work with more than one class of devices. [0003] figure 1 is a structural schematic diagram of the existing equipment control system, according to figure 1 In the equipment contro...

Problems solved by technology

[0009] In the above-mentioned existing device control system, the controller of device A is bound to the controller of device B. If device B changes the manufacturer, the controller of device A needs to be modified, which is not conducive to replacing the device. Moreover, when the business process increases New smart devices, so when adding a new device controller to the device control system, the binding relationship between the original device controllers needs to be changed, which is not conducive to the expansion of the control system

In addition, the messages between devices are transferred between their respective controllers, resulting in independent device status. If the device control system fails, device event messages will be lost, which is not conducive to the operation of the device 24 hours a day.
