[0002] Currently, mobile control terminals generally include mobile phones, remote controls, and control panels. In recent years, mobile phone control has been further divided into App and mini-program control. Compared with App, mini-programs are more lightweight. With the addition of mini-programs, the control methods of the control end have become more diverse, providing more control scenarios, but also bringing more security problems.

[0003] In terms of security, the pairing and control methods of the remote control must be considered. When developing a product, not only the pairing and security need to be considered, but also the diversity of pairing needs to be considered. For example, some devices have dual 8 displays, some devices have voice functions, and some devices are equipped with device barcodes and device QR codes at the factory. The inconsistency of device functions and the inconsistency of device factory information result in different pairing methods for different devices. For example, in the usage scenario of hanging up, it is very inconvenient to pair through QR codes or barcodes. If directly paired through Bluetooth without verification, it is also very unsafe. How to enable users to pair and control safely is an urgent problem to be solved at present. Summary of the Invention

[0054] In order to more clearly illustrate the technical solution, the drawings required for the implementation will be briefly introduced below. Obviously, the drawings in the following description are only some embodiments of the present invention. For those of ordinary skill in the art, other drawings can be obtained based on these drawings without creative efforts.

[0055] Figure 1 It is a flowchart of the present invention. DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE EMBODIMENTS

[0056] In order to clearly and completely understand the technical solution, the present invention will be further described below in conjunction with embodiments and the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only partial embodiments of the present invention. All other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative efforts belong to the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0057] As Figure 1 shown, a method for remote control pairing of a device includes the following steps:

[0058] Receive a pairing request from a remote control end for the first time, and determine whether it is the highest-priority remote control terminal according to the identification information carried in the pairing request. The highest-priority remote control terminal is a physical remote control, and a communication connection is established with the controlled device through a BLE module;

[0059] If so, receive the key value information of the remote control terminal in a specified pairing manner, such as triggering a control instruction through a combination key or long pressing a certain key of the physical remote control to achieve the first pairing with the controlled device, such as an air conditioner, and save the identification information of the physical remote control and the associated information of the completed pairing, such as the identification information that can be used as the uniqueness of the physical remote control identity, short address information, device sn information, etc.

[0060] When other remote control ends send pairing requests to the controlled device, such as a mini-program remote control end;

[0061] The controlled device receives the pairing request from the mini-program remote control end. The pairing request includes the identification information of the mini-program remote control end, and determines whether the identification information has pairing permission, and the pairing permission is preset by the physical remote control;

[0062] Specifically, the controlled device receives the key value information of the physical remote control, sets the pairing permission according to the control instruction associated with the key value information, and the relationship between the key value information and the control instruction is preset. If the physical remote control has a display interface, trigger the button according to the content of the control instruction represented by the display interface, and send the corresponding control instruction to the controlled device; if the physical remote control is a remote control with only physical buttons, represent the control instruction in the form of button press duration and / or button combination and send it to the controlled device, such as long pressing for 3 seconds, 6 seconds, etc. to determine whether the pairing permission of the App remote control end or the mini-program remote control is turned on or off. The controlled device sets the pairing permission of the corresponding remote control end according to the received control instruction and saves it.

[0063] When it is determined that the mini-program remote control end has pairing permission, obtain its identification information and query it in the pre-set pairing permissions. If it is queried that the pairing permission is not set, the controlled device sends a pairing failure message to it; if it is queried that it has pairing permission, the controlled device obtains the pairing methods supported by the pairing permission, and the pairing methods include at least one of the following: double 8 pairing, barcode pairing, QR code pairing, remote control pairing, voice pairing, and by default, double 8 pairing is selected as the pairing method to establish a pairing relationship with the mini-program remote control end;

[0064] When the mini-program remote control end receives the establishment of a pairing relationship in the default pairing method, it can send a request to the controlled device to change the pairing method;

[0065] The controlled device receives the establishment of a pairing relationship by selecting other pairing methods, and queries the selected other pairing methods in the pre-set pairing permissions to determine whether the selected pairing method has the corresponding pairing permission. If it does not have the pairing permission, the controlled device sends a pairing failure message.

[0066] When the default pairing method or the re-selected pairing method has pairing permission, the controlled device displays verification information so that the remote control inputs the verification information to complete the pairing, and saves the identification information of the mini-program remote control end and its associated pairing method.

[0067] In this embodiment, as the highest-priority entity remote control, it also has the function of adjusting and setting pairing permissions, specifically including:

[0068] The controlled device receives the request from the entity remote control to adjust the pairing permission, and verifies the unique identification information of the entity remote control with the identification information and associated information saved when the first pairing is completed. If the verification passes, the action of adjusting and / or setting the pairing permission is executed;

[0069] The action of adjusting and / or setting the pairing permission includes: canceling and / or prohibiting the pairing permission of one or more other paired remote control ends through key value information. For example, by long-pressing for 3 seconds, the pairing control of all remote control ends is prohibited, and by long-pressing for 6 seconds, the pairing control of the already paired App remote control end is prohibited; switching the pairing methods of each remote control end and / or closing the pairing through key value information. The pairing methods of each remote control end can be switched, such as double 8 pairing, barcode pairing, remote control pairing, voice pairing, closing the pairing, etc. When the entity remote control triggers this key value information, the controlled device receives the control instruction through the BLE module, adjusts the pairing method and stores it in the pairing method storage module.

[0070] In this embodiment, as the highest-priority entity controller, it also has the function of sharing and adjusting the pairing permission, specifically including:

[0071] Generate the next-level identification information and adjust the pairing permission control code in a set manner, and send them to other remote control terminals; other remote control terminals obtain the verification of the controlled device through the next-level identification information and the adjusted pairing permission control code, so that other remote control terminals have the permission to adjust and / or set the pairing permission, and the pairing requirements of multiple scenarios can be realized.

[0072] This embodiment also provides a device remote control pairing system, including:

[0073] A transceiver module, used to receive pairing requests and identification information;

[0074] A verification module, used to verify the identification information and determine whether the corresponding identification information has the pairing permission;

[0075] A display module, used to display verification information so that the remote control terminal inputs the verification information to complete the pairing;

[0076] An execution module, used to respond to requests to control each module to perform corresponding operations;

[0077] A storage module, used to store the identification information, pairing permissions, and pairing methods of the device and the remote control terminal, including:

[0078] A device information storage module, used to store the information of the controlled device and perform pairing verification, including barcode verification information, QR code verification information, voice offline or online voice recognition library;

[0079] A remote control terminal information storage module, used to store the information of the remote control terminal that has completed pairing with the controlled device;

[0080] A pairing permission storage module, used to store the pairing permission information of each remote control terminal;

[0081] A pairing method storage module, used to store pairing method information, including double 8 pairing, barcode pairing, QR code pairing, remote control pairing, voice pairing;

[0082] A highest-priority remote control storage module, used to store the information of the highest-priority remote control terminal and the unique identification information of the short address or device sn or device mac that has completed pairing, which can be used for verification when the physical remote control requests to change the pairing method or prohibit the pairing permission of other remote control terminals.

[0083] This embodiment also provides a device remote control pairing device, including a memory, a processor, and a remote control pairing program stored on the memory and executable on the processor. When the remote control pairing program is executed by the processor, the above-mentioned device remote control pairing method is implemented.

[0084] Only one or more of the preferred embodiments of the present invention are disclosed above, which are used to help understand the inventive concept of the technical solution, and do not impose other forms of limitations on the present invention. Those skilled in the art still fall within the scope covered by the present invention when making substitution schemes of other equivalent or conventional means based on the features defined by the present invention.
