[0050] The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present application will be described clearly and completely below in conjunction with the drawings in the embodiments of the present application.

[0051] In the following introduction, the terms "first" and "second" are used for descriptive purposes only and should not be understood as indicating or implying relative importance. The following introduction provides multiple embodiments of the present application. Different embodiments can be replaced or combined, so the present application can also be considered to include all possible combinations of the same and / or different embodiments described. Therefore, if one embodiment includes features A, B, and C, and another embodiment includes features B and D, then the present application should also be considered to include embodiments containing one or more of all other possible combinations of A, B, C, and D, even though the embodiment may not be clearly described in the following text.

[0052] The following description provides examples and does not limit the scope, applicability, or examples set forth in the claims. Changes may be made to the function and arrangement of the elements described without departing from the scope of the present application. Various examples may appropriately omit, replace, or add various processes or components. For example, the described method may be performed in an order different from the order described, and various steps may be added, omitted, or combined. In addition, features described in some examples may be combined in other examples.

[0053] See also Figure 1 , Figure 1 The figure shows an overall flow chart of a method for displaying menu options for a smart meter provided in an embodiment of the present application.

[0054] like Figure 1 As shown, the menu option display method for a smart meter may include at least the following steps:

[0055] Step 101: Based on a first keyword set input by a user, determine a quantity identification code corresponding to the first keyword quantity and a first display item code.

[0056] In an embodiment of the present application, a method for displaying menu options for a smart meter can be applied, but is not limited to, to smart terminals such as desktop computers, laptop computers, and tablet computers. During the menu option display process for the smart meter, a first display item code and a second display item code are determined based on a first keyword set and a second keyword set input by a user, and a first request and a second request are then generated. The requests are then sent to the smart meter to ensure that the menu options displayed by the smart meter are consistent with the user's expectations. This allows for adjustment of the menu options displayed by the smart meter, meeting the user's personalized needs for menu options while saving significant manpower and material costs.

[0057] Specifically, in the process of displaying menu options for smart meters, it is possible but not limited to first calculating the number of options in the first keyword set input by the user, that is, the number of first keywords (such as calculating the number of options by identifying the number of semicolons or commas input by the user), through a string processing program designed by a programming language such as Python and JavaScript, and then generating a number identification code based on the number of options and a preset encoding rule (such as a combination of fixed characters and numbers such as count3, where the numbers can represent the number of options), wherein the options in the first keyword set refer to the option names that the user expects to be displayed in the first-level menu under the homepage of the smart meter, that is, the first keywords, and the first keyword set includes at least one first keyword.

[0058] It should be noted that the homepage of the smart meter refers to the page displayed by the smart meter when no request is received, and the page content mainly includes information such as date, time and total electricity; the first-level menu of the smart meter refers to the next level menu below the homepage. When a request related to the first-level menu is received, the smart meter will switch the display content from the homepage to the page displaying the above-mentioned options, and the first-level menu includes at least two of the options.

[0059] Furthermore, a first display item code corresponding to the option name desired by the user may be generated. This generation method may include, but is not limited to, generating a sequential code based on the default order of option names in the primary menu (e.g., names with fewer characters are placed before names with more characters, and names with the same first character are placed together). For example, if option A is ranked first, the code is 0001; if option B is ranked second, the code is 0002; and if option C is ranked sixth, the code is 0006.

[0060] As an optional embodiment of the present application, determining a number identification code and a first display item code based on a first keyword set input by a user includes:

[0061] Obtain at least one first-level option name according to a first keyword set input by the user;

[0062] Obtaining a first code corresponding to each first-level option name from a preset first-level database; wherein the preset first-level database includes at least one first-level option name and a first code corresponding to the first-level option name;

[0063] According to the number of all first codes, a number identification code is obtained;

[0064] A first display item code is determined according to all first codes and a preset value, wherein the preset value is the number of first codes supported by a single communication.

[0065] Specifically, in the process of determining the number identification code and the first display item code based on the first keyword set input by the user, the first keyword set input by the user can be first identified and processed to obtain at least one first-level option name. For example, when a first keyword such as "electric energy" or "electricity" is identified in the first keyword set, a first-level option name can be determined to be "electric energy"; when a first keyword such as "demand" or "required quantity" is identified in the first keyword set, a first-level option name can be determined to be "required quantity". It is worth noting that the first-level option name is a specific option name stored in the database, which corresponds to multiple different keywords, and the keywords and option names have the same or similar meanings.

[0066] Next, a first code corresponding to each first-level option name can be obtained from a preset first-level database, wherein the preset first-level database includes at least one first-level option name and a first code corresponding to the first-level option name. For example, if the preset first-level database stores the first-level option names: instantaneous quantity, electric energy, demand quantity, freeze, event, and setting, and the preset first-level database also stores the corresponding first codes: 0001, 0002, 0003, 0004, 0005, and 0006, then when the determined first-level option names are instantaneous quantity and demand quantity, the corresponding first codes obtained from the preset first-level database are 0001 and 0003.

[0067] After obtaining the first code, a number identification code can be determined based on the number of first codes. For example, when the number of first codes is 5, the number identification code can be set to, but is not limited to, C16005, where C160 is a fixed character that serves as the prefix of the entire number identification code, indicating that the digits following this character are the number of options (i.e., the number of first codes). It is worth noting that the content of the fixed character can be set based on the communication protocol used between the smart terminal and the smart meter in actual application, and the number of digits following the fixed character (e.g., two-digit 05, three-digit 005, etc.) can be determined based on the maximum number of options that the smart meter can display.

[0068] After obtaining the number identification code, the number of meaningless codes can be calculated using the number of all first codes and a preset value, and then a supplementary code can be obtained based on the number of meaningless codes. Thus, all first codes and supplementary codes can be combined to obtain a first display item code, where the preset value is the number of first codes supported by a single communication. For example, when the preset value is 8, it means that the content transmitted by the smart terminal and the smart meter in a single communication includes 8 first codes. In this case, if there are 5 first codes 0001, 0002, 0003, 0004, and 0005 that need to be transmitted, 3 meaningless first codes 0000, 0000, and 0000 can be supplemented, resulting in the first display item code C16100010002000300040005000000000000, where C161 is a fixed character representing that the content immediately following it is the first code corresponding to the option displayed on the smart meter.

[0069] As another option of the embodiment of the present application, determining the first display item code according to all first codes and preset values ​​includes:

[0070] When it is identified that the number of the first codes is less than or equal to a preset value, a first display item code is generated according to the preset display instruction and all the first codes;

[0071] When it is identified that the number of first codes is greater than a preset value, all first codes are grouped according to the preset value to obtain at least two code groups; wherein each code group includes at least one first code;

[0072] A first display item code is generated according to each code group and a configuration instruction corresponding to each code group.

[0073] Specifically, in the process of obtaining the first display item code through all the first codes and the preset numerical value, when it is identified that the number of first codes is less than or equal to the preset numerical value, the preset display instruction (such as C161 mentioned above) can be used as a prefix, followed by all the first codes, and then the number of digits required after the prefix can be determined according to the preset numerical value, and when the actual number of digits does not meet the required number of digits, the remaining digits are padded with 0s, that is, if there are several missing digits, the number of 0s is padded at the end of the code, thereby generating the first display item code.

[0074] Furthermore, when it is determined that the number of first codes is greater than a preset value, all first codes may be grouped according to the preset value to obtain at least two code groups, each of which includes at least one first code. For example, when the preset value is 8 and the number of first codes is 10, the first codes may be divided into two code groups of 8+2, i.e., the first code group includes 8 first codes and the second code group includes 2 first codes.

[0075] Next, each code group and the configuration instruction corresponding to each code group can be combined to obtain a first display item code. For example, when the first code group includes 0001, 0002, 0003, 0004, 0005, 0006, 0007, and 0008, and their corresponding configuration instruction is C161, and the second code group includes 0009 and 000A, and their corresponding configuration instruction is C162, the obtained first display item code can be, but is not limited to, C16100010002000300040005000600070008C1620009000A000000000000000000000000, where, since the first code uses hexadecimal numbers, A in this paragraph represents the number 10.

[0076] It should be noted that the configuration instructions are pre-set and stored in the smart terminal and can be read based on, but not limited to, the grouping result of the first code. For example, if the configuration instruction obtained by the first code group is C161, the second and third code groups can read the configuration instructions C162 and C163 after C161 in sequence.

[0077] As another optional embodiment of the present application, before determining the number identification code and the first display item code based on the first keyword set input by the user, the method further includes:

[0078] receiving a first keyword set input by a user at a preset time interval;

[0079] When the first keyword set is not received within a preset time interval, a home page request is sent to the smart meter, so that the display content of the smart meter is consistent with the preset display content.

[0080] Specifically, before obtaining the number identification code and the first display item code based on the first keyword set input by the user, the first keyword set input by the user can be received according to a preset time interval, and when the first keyword set is not received within the preset time interval, a home page request is sent to the smart meter, so that the smart meter displays a default page (i.e., the preset display content) when no data is received, to avoid confusion in the display content due to no data input, wherein the default page may include but is not limited to date, time, total electric energy, instantaneous power, user information, and connection status, etc.

[0081] Step 102: Generate a first request based on the number identification code and the first display item code, and send the first request to the smart meter, so that the smart meter displays a first-level menu corresponding to the first keyword set.

[0082] Specifically, after determining the number identification code and the first display item code, a first request can be generated based on the number identification code and the first display item code. This generation method can include, but is not limited to, converting the number identification code, the first display item code, and the communication address of the smart meter according to a preset request format. For example, if the request format is: AT+command+parameter, the number identification code C16005 can be converted to AT+C160+05 (representing the smart meter displaying five options). Similarly, the first display item code and the communication address of the smart meter can be converted and arranged in a fixed order to obtain the first request.

[0083] Furthermore, after receiving the first request, the first request may be sent to the smart meter to control the smart meter to display a first-level menu corresponding to the first keyword set input by the user, that is, to display the option content that the user expects to see.

[0084] As another optional embodiment of the present application, after sending the first request to the smart meter, the method further includes:

[0085] When the second keyword set input by the user is not received, generating a full display request according to a preset full display code;

[0086] A full display request is sent to the smart meter, so that the smart meter displays the preset menu content on the first-level menu.

[0087] Specifically, after sending the first request to the smart meter, when the second keyword set input by the user is not received, it means that the user has no requirement for the display of the lower-level option content of the first-level menu. Therefore, a full-display request can be generated according to the preset permission code and the request format specified by the communication protocol, and then the full-display request can be sent to the smart meter to control the smart meter to display the lower-level option content of all first-level menus, that is, the preset menu content.

[0088] It should be noted that the lower-level options refer to the options in the menu of the next level below the current page; the options in the second keyword set are the option names that the user expects to be displayed in the secondary menu below the first-level menu of the smart meter, wherein the secondary menu refers to the menu of the next level below the first-level menu. When a request related to the secondary menu is received, the smart meter will switch the display content from the first-level menu page to the page displaying the options included in the secondary menu.

[0089] Step 103: When a second keyword set input by the user is received, a second display item code is determined based on the second keyword set.

[0090] Specifically, after the smart meter displays the contents of the first-level menu, when it receives a second keyword set input by the user, it represents that the user has a requirement for the display of the contents of the lower-level options of the first-level menu. Therefore, the code corresponding to each lower-level option can be determined based on the second keyword set and the preset coding rules, and all the codes can be combined in a certain order (such as the ascending order of the code values) to obtain the second display item code.

[0091] For example, if the second keyword set is "phase voltage, phase current", since the phase voltage is the first option in the lower-level option "instantaneous quantity" ranked first in the first-level menu, its code is 0001 (that is, the preset coding rule is to encode according to the default arrangement order of the lower-level options). Similarly, the code of the phase current is 0002. According to the ascending order of the code values, the codes corresponding to these two lower-level options can be combined to obtain the second display item code 00010002.

[0092] As another optional embodiment of the present application, when a second keyword set input by a user is received, determining a second display item code based on the second keyword set includes:

[0093] When receiving a second keyword set input by the user, obtaining at least one secondary option name according to the second keyword set;

[0094] Determine a second code according to all secondary option names and bit information corresponding to each secondary option name;

[0095] The page number corresponding to each secondary option name is obtained from a preset secondary database, wherein the preset secondary database comprises at least one secondary option name and the page number corresponding to the secondary option name;

[0096] The second display item code is determined according to the page number and the second code.

[0097] Specifically, in the process of receiving the second keyword set input by the user and determining the second display item code according to the second keyword set, at least one secondary option name can be determined from the second keyword set, and the determination manner can refer to the determination manner of the primary option name.

[0098] Then, the bit information corresponding to each secondary option name can be determined according to all secondary option names, and the second code can be calculated according to all bit information. It can be understood that the bit information of each secondary option name is related to the default arrangement order thereof in the primary menu. If the default arrangement order is the first, the bit value of the first bit is set to 1, and the bit value of other bits is set to 0. For example, when the determined secondary option names are “active power” and “reactive power”, since the arrangement order of the sub-options of “electric energy” in the primary menu is: total, active power, reactive power, the secondary option names “active power” and “reactive power” are arranged in the second and third positions respectively. Then, the second and third positions are set to 1, and other positions are set to 0. It should be noted that the total number of bits is a fixed value preset in advance, and the bits are arranged from right to left (i.e., the rightmost bit is the first bit). If the fixed value is 4, the corresponding second code is 0110.

[0099] After obtaining the second code, the page number corresponding to each secondary option name is obtained from a preset secondary database, wherein the preset secondary database comprises at least one secondary option name and the page number corresponding to the secondary option name, and the page number represents the arrangement order of the upper option corresponding to the secondary option name in the primary menu. Since the arrangement order of “electric energy” is the second, the page numbers corresponding to “active power” and “reactive power” are both 2, and the page code is 0002 according to the code bit requirement (such as the code bit must satisfy 4 bits). Then, the page code and the second code are spliced to obtain the second display item code (such as 00020110).

[0100] As another optional embodiment of the present application, the second code is determined according to all secondary option names and the bit information corresponding to each secondary option name, comprising:

[0101] The binary number is converted according to all secondary option names and the bit information corresponding to each secondary option name.

[0102] The binary number is converted into a hexadecimal number, and a second code is generated based on the hexadecimal number.

[0103] Specifically, in the process of determining the second code based on all secondary option names and the bit information corresponding to each secondary option name, you can first refer to the above method to obtain the bit information. For example, when the secondary option names are "active power" and "reactive power", the bit information is: the second and third positions are 1, and the other positions are 0. Converting it into a binary number is 110.

[0104] Next, the binary number 110 can be converted into a hexadecimal number 6, and then according to the coding bit requirement (such as the coding bit must meet 4 bits), the second code can be obtained as 0006.

[0105] Step 104: Generate a second request based on the second display item code and the preset instruction code, and send the second request to the smart meter, so that the smart meter displays a secondary menu corresponding to the second keyword set on the primary menu.

[0106] Specifically, after obtaining the second display item code, a second request may be generated according to the second display item code and a preset instruction code (eg, D001). The generation method thereof may refer to the generation method of the first request.

[0107] Furthermore, after generating the second request, the second request can be sent to the smart meter to control the smart meter to display a secondary menu corresponding to the second keyword set input by the user, that is, the lower option content of the primary menu that the user expects to see.

[0108] See also Figure 2 , Figure 2 A schematic diagram of a display page of a smart meter provided in an embodiment of the present application is shown.

[0109] like Figure 2 As shown in the figure, it includes five display pages: Display Page 1, Display Page 2, Display Page 3, Display Page 4, and Display Page 5. Display Page 1 is the homepage, and its display content is the default content (i.e., the preset display content mentioned above) and cannot be changed; Display Pages 2 and 3 display the content corresponding to "Instantaneous Quantity" and "Energy" in the first-level menu; Display Pages 4 and 5 display the content corresponding to "Phase Voltage" and "Phase Current" in the second-level menu.

[0110] It is understandable that Figure 2 The following table shows some of the display contents of the smart meter for reference only. Display page 2 and display page 3 are sub-options of display page 1, and display page 4 and display page 5 are sub-options of display page 2.

[0111] It should be noted that options such as "instantaneous quantity" and "electric energy" are not displayed in display page 1, but in the smart meter, options such as "instantaneous quantity" and "electric energy" belong to the first-level menu, that is, they are lower-level options of display page 1. Whether they are displayed on the homepage depends on the specific application scenario.
