[0045] For ease of understanding, the specific process in the embodiments of the present application is described below. Figure 1 , Figure 1A flowchart of an embodiment of a device control method provided in an embodiment of the present application.

[0046] exist Figure 1 In the illustrated embodiment, the method is applied to an electronic device, the electronic device includes at least two different types of first communication modules and second communication modules, and may include the following steps:

[0047] S101: receiving a device control request initiated by a mobile terminal through the first communication module or the second communication module.

[0048] In this embodiment, the electronic device is equipped with a plurality of different types of communication modules, such as a first communication module and a second communication module, to meet the needs of different user groups.

[0049] In some embodiments, the first communication module and the second communication module of the electronic device can be any two of a Bluetooth module, a ZigBee module, an RFID module, and a WLAN module. For example, the first communication module can be a Bluetooth module, and the second communication module can be a ZigBee module. The specific type can be determined according to actual needs and is not limited here.

[0050] The above mentioned terms need to be explained:

[0051] Bluetooth is a wireless communication technology mainly used for short-distance data exchange. The Bluetooth module supports point-to-point (one-to-one) and point-to-many (one-to-many) communication modes, has good anti-interference ability, and has a long transmission distance (up to 100 meters). It is usually used in mobile terminals that support complex interactive scenarios, such as mobile phones.

[0052] ZigBee is a low-rate wireless communication technology designed for low-power devices. ZigBee modules support star, mesh and cluster tree network topologies, have low power consumption, can save more power resources and have strong anti-interference capabilities. They are usually used in devices that only need to meet simple functions, such as remote controls.

[0053] RFID (Radio Frequency Identification) is a communication technology that uses radio signals to identify specific targets and read and write related data. RFID modules have the characteristics of long reading distance (from a few meters to tens of meters), small data storage capacity, strong anti-interference ability and the ability to penetrate obstacles to read tags.

[0054] WLAN (Wireless Local Area Network) is a technology that connects computer devices to a local area network through wireless media (such as radio waves). WLAN modules support high data transmission rates (up to several MBps), have a wide coverage area, and can support more than 100 people accessing at the same time, but the power consumption is relatively high.

[0055] When a user remotely controls an electronic device through a mobile terminal, it is necessary to first determine the communication module equipped with the currently used mobile terminal and the type of communication connection currently supported by the electronic device, and turn on the communication module on the mobile terminal that can wirelessly connect to the electronic device, thereby achieving wireless connection pairing and establishing a wireless communication connection. After the wireless communication connection is established, the user can initiate a device control request to the electronic device through the mobile terminal, and the corresponding communication module of the electronic device receives the device control request issued by the mobile terminal. For example, when the mobile terminal is a mobile phone, the electronic device is a washing machine, and the first communication module or the second communication module is a Bluetooth module, the user can send a device control request to the washing machine through a mobile phone equipped with a Bluetooth module to control the washing machine to turn on the washing function. At this time, the device control request is received by the Bluetooth module equipped on the washing machine.

[0056] S102: According to the device control request, obtain a target operation instruction in the device control request.

[0057] In this embodiment, after receiving the device control request through the first communication module or the second communication module, the electronic device will parse the device control request to extract the target operation instruction carried in the device control request. For example, when the target operation instruction is "start washing program", the electronic device will activate the washing program according to the target operation instruction and control the water temperature, rotation speed and other operating data.

[0058] S103, calling a preset transmission function that simulates a preset communication bus, sending the target operation instruction to a data forwarding module that is respectively connected to the preset transmission interface and the preset execution module, and sending the target operation instruction to a corresponding preset execution module through the data forwarding module to execute the corresponding target operation instruction.

[0059] It should be explained that the preset communication bus includes any one of the I2C bus, SPI bus, UART bus, CAN bus and USB bus. Taking the I2C bus as an example, the I2C bus is a simple, bidirectional two-wire synchronous serial bus. It only needs two wires to transmit information between devices connected to the bus, one is the data line SDA, and the other is the clock line SCL. The I2C bus adopts a multi-master-slave architecture, and each device has a unique address through which communication is carried out. The working principle of the I2C bus is based on serial communication. The data is stable during the high level of the clock line SCL and is only allowed to change during the low level. Each byte must be followed by a response bit, and data transmission can be continuous and unrestricted. The I2C bus has the advantages of few interface lines, simple control method, and high communication rate, and is suitable for a variety of devices and systems.

[0060] It should be noted that if Figure 2 As shown, during the wireless communication between the mobile terminal and the electronic device, after the mobile terminal sends a device control request through the mobile phone Bluetooth or the remote control ZigBee, it is received by the first communication module or the second communication module of the electronic device and sent to the main controller of the electronic device (such as GD32MCU), and then the main controller extracts the target operation instruction in the device control request, and transmits the target operation instruction to the data forwarding module (such as UART, i.e. universal asynchronous receiver-transmitter) connected to the preset execution module through a preset communication bus (such as I2C bus), and finally the data forwarding module sends the target operation instruction to the corresponding preset execution module (such as water inlet valve, motor, etc.), and then executes the corresponding function (such as controlling the opening of the water inlet valve or controlling the rotation of the motor, etc.).

[0061] According to the above introduction to the wireless communication process between the mobile terminal and the electronic device, in order to allow the device control request issued by the mobile terminal to smoothly reach the preset execution module and execute the corresponding function, the preset communication bus and the data forwarding module are generally indispensable hardware structures. Among them, the preset communication bus has the advantage of high-speed data transmission, can quickly respond to user requests, and the bus usually has strict protocol regulations to ensure reliable data transmission and synchronization between devices. The data forwarding module is suitable for simple control scenarios (such as controlling the opening of the water inlet valve or controlling the rotation of the motor, etc.), which can replace the main controller to convert data formats between different devices, which can not only reduce the burden of the main controller and improve the data processing efficiency of the system, but also improve the compatibility of the equipment, and then send the target operation instructions to different types of preset execution modules. In contrast, the preset communication bus has more advantages, but the corresponding preset communication bus has a higher cost. Since this scheme hopes to add a variety of different types of communication modules to the electronic device to meet the hardware requirements of different mobile terminals, and at the same time can achieve the purpose of reducing the overall cost on the original basis, considering that the hardware structure of the preset communication bus has a high cost, the preset communication bus in hardware form can be simulated by software, and to a certain extent, it can be equivalent to the effect achieved by the preset communication bus. Therefore, in this embodiment, the preset transmission function of the simulated preset communication bus can be called to send the target operation instruction to the data forwarding module respectively connected to the preset transmission interface and the preset execution module, and the target operation instruction is sent to the corresponding preset execution module through the data forwarding module to execute the corresponding target operation instruction.

[0062] It should be explained that the preset transmission function is obtained by writing code to simulate the timing of the preset communication bus, including start conditions, stop conditions, sending and receiving data, etc. This usually involves programming the GPIO (general input and output) pins of the main controller to simulate the level changes of the preset communication bus. Some main controllers or development boards provide special function libraries to simulate the preset communication bus. For example, on the STM32 microcontroller, the I2C simulation function in the HAL (hardware abstraction layer) library can be used as the preset transmission function to simulate the I2C bus.

[0063] In some embodiments, before sending the target operation instruction to the data forwarding module connected to the preset transmission interface and the preset execution module respectively, the method further includes:

[0064] Respectively obtain the working status of the first communication module and the second communication module;

[0065] If the current working states of the first communication module and the second communication module are both in the process of performing data transceiving operations, then according to the priority levels of the first communication module and the second communication module, the working state of the first communication module or the second communication module with a lower priority level is modified to suspend the data transceiving operation;

[0066] After the first communication module or the second communication module with a higher priority level completes the data sending and receiving operation, the first communication module or the second communication module with a lower priority level is restored to continue the data sending and receiving operation.

[0067] In actual application scenarios, it is possible that the main controller of an electronic device receives operation instructions sent from different communication modules at the same time, and even the operation instructions sent by different communication modules are the same. At this time, if the execution order is not distinguished, it is very likely that the main controller will not know which operation instruction to execute first, resulting in uncontrollable abnormal problems. In addition, in some specific scenarios, it may be agreed that some more important operation instructions are received by the first communication module, while less important operation instructions are received by the second communication module. If the execution order is not agreed in advance, it is possible that when the first communication module and the second communication module are simultaneously executing data transmission and reception operations, the more important operation instructions may not be given priority to be responded to.

[0068] In order to solve the above problem, in this embodiment, the working status of the first communication module and the second communication module are respectively obtained; if the current working status of the first communication module and the second communication module are both in executing data sending and receiving operations, then according to the priority levels of the first communication module and the second communication module, the working status of the first communication module or the second communication module with a lower priority level is modified to suspend the data sending and receiving operation; after the first communication module or the second communication module with a higher priority level completes the data sending and receiving operation, the first communication module or the second communication module with a lower priority level is restored to continue the data sending and receiving operation.

[0069] In some embodiments, before sending the target operation instruction to the data forwarding module connected to the preset transmission interface and the preset execution module respectively, the method further includes:

[0070] Respectively obtain the working status of the first communication module and the second communication module;

[0071] If the current working states of the first communication module and the second communication module are both in the process of executing a data sending and receiving operation, respectively obtaining a first target operation instruction corresponding to the first communication module and a second target operation instruction corresponding to the second communication module;

[0072] The sending of the target operation instruction with a lower priority among the first target operation instruction and the second target operation instruction to the data forwarding module is suspended, and after the target operation instruction with a higher priority is executed, the sending of the target operation instruction with a lower priority to the data forwarding module is resumed.

[0073] In some specific scenarios, it may be agreed that certain operation instructions are more important, and it does not distinguish whether they are received by the first communication module or the second communication module. If the execution order is not agreed in advance, it is possible that when the first communication module and the second communication module are simultaneously performing data sending and receiving operations, there is no priority to ensure that the more important operation instructions can be responded to.

[0074] In order to solve the above problems, in this embodiment, the working status of the first communication module and the second communication module are respectively obtained; if the current working status of the first communication module and the second communication module are both in executing data sending and receiving operations, the first target operation instruction corresponding to the first communication module and the second target operation instruction corresponding to the second communication module are respectively obtained; the sending of the target operation instruction with a lower priority among the first target operation instruction and the second target operation instruction to the data forwarding module is suspended, and after the target operation instruction with a higher priority is executed, the sending of the target operation instruction with a lower priority to the data forwarding module is resumed.

[0075] In some embodiments, after sending the target operation instruction to the corresponding preset execution module through the data forwarding module to execute the corresponding target operation instruction, the method further includes:

[0076] Acquire operation data generated during the execution of the target operation instruction;

[0077] The preset transmission function is called to send the operating data to the data forwarding module, and the operating data is displayed on a display screen connected to the data forwarding module through the data forwarding module.

[0078] In this embodiment, if Figure 2 As shown, the operation data depends on the type of the target operation instruction. For example, if the target operation instruction is "start washing program", the corresponding operation data may be water temperature, motor rotation speed, washing mode and other operation data. By displaying the operation data on the display screen, the user can understand the current washing situation on the display screen. In some embodiments, the operation data may also be fault information that occurs during the operation of the washing machine.

[0079] In some embodiments, after acquiring the target operation instruction in the device control request, the method further includes:

[0080] Calling a preset transmission function simulating a preset communication bus, and writing the target operation instruction into an external memory;

[0081] The calling of the preset transmission function simulating the preset communication bus, and sending the target operation instruction to the data forwarding module connected to the preset transmission interface and the preset execution module respectively, comprises:

[0082] The preset transmission function simulating the preset communication bus is called to read the target operation instruction from the external memory, and the target operation instruction is sent to the data forwarding module connected to the preset transmission interface and the preset execution module respectively.

[0083] Considering that some electronic devices are designed with small available memory when leaving the factory, directly parsing the device control instructions may easily cause data overflow in the available memory. Figure 2 As shown, using external memory to store parsed data, such as target operation instructions, can alleviate the pressure on available memory and also avoid the loss of important data.

[0084] All the above optional technical solutions can be arbitrarily combined to form optional embodiments of the present application, which will not be described one by one here.

[0085] In specific implementation, the present application is not limited by the execution order of the various steps described. If no conflict occurs, some steps can be performed in other orders or simultaneously.

[0086] As can be seen from the above, the device control method provided in the embodiment of the present application receives the device control request initiated by the mobile terminal through the first communication module or the second communication module; according to the device control request, obtains the target operation instruction in the device control request; calls the preset transmission function that simulates the preset communication bus, sends the target operation instruction to the data forwarding module that is respectively connected to the preset transmission interface and the preset execution module, and sends the target operation instruction to the corresponding preset execution module through the data forwarding module to execute the corresponding target operation instruction. Utilizing the device control method provided in the embodiment of the present application, by equipping electronic devices such as washing machines with a variety of different types of communication modules to meet the needs of different user groups, and by utilizing the transmission function that simulates the communication bus, it is possible to replace the hardware structure of the communication bus, thereby achieving the purpose of reducing the overall cost.
