Technical Field

[0001] The present application relates to the field of control technology, and in particular to a control method, device, equipment and storage medium. Background Art

[0002] Currently, when users arrange electrical appliances in their homes, they deploy multiple electrical appliances that are often needed to be used continuously (for example, a washing machine and a dryer) in two locations that are relatively close to each other, so that the multiple electrical appliances can be used quickly and continuously.

[0003] In the prior art, in order to save the space occupied by electrical appliances, multiple electrical appliances that are often used continuously can be stacked. For example, a clothes dryer can be placed above a washing machine. However, after the electrical appliances are stacked, the display screen of the electrical appliance placed above will be located at a higher position, which will make it inconvenient for users to operate the electrical appliances placed above, affecting the user experience. Summary of the invention

[0011] A startup control module is used to obtain a target slave mode control selected by a user from each slave mode control of the second interactive interface, and a target slave function control selected from each slave function control of the second interactive interface, and control the slave electrical equipment to start operation based on the operation mode corresponding to the target slave mode control and the function sub-mode corresponding to the target slave function control.

[0012] In a third aspect, the present application provides a control device comprising a memory, a processor, a bus and a communication interface; the memory is used to store computer execution instructions, and the processor is connected to the memory through a bus; when the control device is running, the processor executes the computer execution instructions stored in the memory, so that the control device executes the control method provided in the first aspect above.

[0034] In addition, the acquisition, storage, use, and processing of data in the technical solution of this application comply with the relevant provisions of national laws and regulations.

[0035] In the prior art, in order to save the space occupied by electrical appliances, multiple electrical appliances that are often used continuously can be stacked. For example, a clothes dryer can be placed above a washing machine. However, after the electrical appliances are stacked, the display screen of the electrical appliance placed above will be located at a higher position, which will make it inconvenient for users to operate the electrical appliances placed above, affecting the user experience.

[0036] In response to the problems existing in the above-mentioned prior art, an embodiment of the present application provides a control method, in which the user can switch the operation interface of the main electrical device presented on the first display panel to the operation interface of the slave electrical device by operating on the first display panel of the main electrical device, thereby controlling the startup and operation of the slave electrical device according to the operation performed by the user on the operation interface of the slave electrical device presented by the master electrical device, thereby solving the problem of user operation inconvenience caused by the electrical equipment being deployed too high.

[0037] The control method provided in the embodiment of the present application can be executed by the control device provided in the embodiment of the present application, and the device can be implemented by software and / or hardware and integrated in the control device that executes the method. Specifically, the control device can be the main electrical device in the embodiment of the present application, or it can also be a component in the main electrical device, such as the main control board of the main electrical device.

[0038] The control method provided in the embodiment of the present application is described below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0039] Reference Figure 1 , the control method provided in the embodiment of the present application includes S101-S103:

[0040] S101 . In response to a power-on instruction for a main electrical device, controlling a first display panel to present a first interactive interface.

[0041] The control method provided in the embodiment of the present application can be applied to a main electrical device. In one possible implementation, the main electrical device can be an electrical device that is deployed in a position that is convenient for users to operate; correspondingly, the slave electrical device in the embodiment of the present application can be an electrical device that is deployed in a position that is not convenient for users to operate. Exemplarily, the main electrical device in the embodiment of the present application can be a washing machine, and the slave electrical device can be a clothes dryer; or, in actual applications, the clothes dryer can be the main electrical device, and the washing machine can be the slave electrical device.

[0042] The main electrical device may include a first display panel. Exemplarily, the first display panel may be a thin film field effect transistor (TFT) display screen.

[0043] In a possible implementation, a power button may be fixedly provided on the first display panel (or the power button may also be provided at other locations on the main electrical device), and the switch instruction in the embodiment of the present application may be an instruction triggered by a user touching the power button. When the control device detects the power-on instruction, it may control the first display panel to present the first interactive interface.

[0044] The first interactive interface may display various main mode controls and various main function controls. Among them, each main mode control is used to trigger the operation mode of the main electrical device, and each main function control is used to trigger the functional sub-mode of the main electrical device. When the user wants to use the main electrical device, he can select a target main mode control from each main mode control and a target main function control from each main function control according to the needs, and the control device can control the main electrical device itself to operate based on the operation mode corresponding to the target main mode control and the functional sub-mode corresponding to the target main function control based on the user's selection operation.

[0045] Reference Figure 2 Taking the main electrical device as a washing machine as an example, the present application embodiment provides an interface schematic diagram of a first interactive interface. Figure 2 As shown, each main mode control in the first interactive interface may include a mode control corresponding to the washing operation mode, which is used to trigger the washing mode of the washing machine; each main function control in the first interactive interface may include smart delivery, softener, detergent, and each delivery mode (such as Figure 2 In the first interactive interface, there are multiple function controls unique to the washing machine, such as the delivery modes corresponding to "blood stains", "oil stains", "coffee", "juice", "red wine" and "sweat stains" respectively. Exemplarily, when the user touches the main function control of intelligent delivery, the control device can lock the intelligent delivery function of the washing machine, so that the washing machine can intelligently deliver softener and detergent; when the user touches the two main function controls of softener and target delivery mode in each delivery mode, the control device can lock the softener delivery function corresponding to the two main function controls; when the user touches the two main function controls of detergent and target delivery mode in each delivery mode, the control device can lock the detergent delivery function corresponding to the two main function controls. In addition, the main function controls in the first interactive interface can also include function controls such as single dehydration, simple self-cleaning, running water quick cleaning, wisdom, down, home textiles, wool, silk, and summer cool quilt.

[0046] Reference Figure 3Taking the main electrical device as a clothes dryer as an example, the present application embodiment also provides another interface schematic diagram of the first interactive interface. Figure 3 As shown, each main mode control in the first interactive interface may include mode controls corresponding to the two operating modes of drying and nursing, respectively, for triggering the drying mode and nursing mode of the dryer respectively; each main function control in the first interactive interface may include a drying sub-mode, and each drying sub-mode selection (for example, including Figure 3 For example, when the user touches the two main function controls of the drying sub-mode and the target drying sub-mode selection in each drying sub-mode selection, the control device can lock the drying sub-mode corresponding to the main function control of the target drying sub-mode selection. In addition, each main function control can also include a care sub-mode, and each care sub-mode selection (including Figure 3 In the first interactive interface, the control device can lock the care sub-mode corresponding to the target care sub-mode selection in the care sub-mode selection. In addition, the main function controls in the first interactive interface can also include blanket drying, static drum drying, timed drying, intelligence, down, home textiles, wool, silk, and summer cool quilt.

[0047] Optionally, the first interactive interface also displays an interconnection trigger control. After controlling the first display panel to present the first interactive interface in response to a power-on instruction for the master electrical device, the control method provided in the embodiment of the present application may further include: controlling the first display panel to present a third interactive interface in response to a user's selection operation on the interconnection trigger control; determining the electrical device to be selected corresponding to the target device to be selected as a slave electrical device in response to a user's selection operation on a target device to be selected control among each device to be selected control; controlling the first display panel to switch from the third interactive interface back to the first interactive interface, and adding a device icon of the slave electrical device at a preset position of the first interactive interface.

[0048] The third interactive interface displays various to-be-selected device controls; the to-be-selected electrical devices corresponding to the to-be-selected device controls are electrical devices that are currently in communication connection with the main electrical device. For example, taking the main electrical device as a washing machine, the to-be-selected electrical devices may be a clothes dryer, an air conditioner, a television, etc.

[0049] In actual applications, there are many types of electrical appliances in the user's home, and different electrical appliances may be deployed in different areas (for example, washing machines, air conditioners, televisions and other electrical appliances may be deployed in different areas such as living rooms, balconies, and bedrooms). When the user needs to use these electrical appliances at the same time, it is necessary to operate these electrical appliances separately, and the deployment locations of these electrical appliances are distributed in multiple areas, so the user experience is not very good. Based on this, in an embodiment of the present application, an interconnection trigger control can be deployed on the first interactive interface, and the interconnection trigger control can be used to switch the slave electrical appliance currently interconnected with the main electrical appliance to another electrical appliance required by the user.

[0050] Take the washing machine as an example. When the user needs to switch to a slave device, he can first Figure 2 The interconnected trigger control in the first interactive interface shown in the figure is selected to trigger the first display panel to present a third interactive interface containing various device controls to be selected. Afterwards, the user can select the target device control required from the various device controls to be selected in the third interactive interface, so that the current slave electrical device can be switched (or set) to the electrical device corresponding to the target device control. Similarly, taking the main electrical device as a clothes dryer as an example, when the user needs to switch the slave electrical device, he can first Figure 3 The interconnected trigger control in the selection operation is performed to trigger the first display panel to present a third interactive interface including each device control to be selected.

[0051] Furthermore, in order to facilitate the user to clearly know which slave electrical device is currently interconnected with the master electrical device, thereby avoiding user's misoperation, such as Figure 2 or Figure 3 As shown, the embodiment of the present application can also fixedly display the device icon of the electrical device in the first interactive interface.

[0052] Optionally, in actual application, the embodiment of the present application can also switch (or set) the slave electrical device in other ways. For example, the user can interconnect the required electrical device with the master electrical device in an application (APP) used to control the master electrical device and the slave electrical device (the interconnection operation interface of the APP is similar to the third interactive interface in the embodiment of the present application), so as to set the required electrical device as the slave electrical device.

[0053] Optionally, the first interactive interface also displays a device adding control. After controlling the first display panel to present the first interactive interface in response to a power-on instruction for the main electrical device, the control method provided in the embodiment of the present application may further include: in response to a user's selection operation for the device adding control, controlling the first display panel to present a fourth interactive interface; in response to a user's selection operation for a target candidate device control among each candidate device control, creating a communication connection relationship between the candidate electrical device corresponding to the target candidate device control and the main electrical device, and adding the candidate electrical device corresponding to the target candidate device control to each electrical device to be selected.

[0054] The fourth interactive interface displays various candidate device controls; each candidate electrical device corresponding to each candidate device control is a device currently in the search function. For example, taking the main electrical device as a washing machine, each candidate electrical device may be a clothes dryer, an air conditioner, a television, a fan, etc.

[0055] Taking the washing machine as an example, when a new electrical appliance is added to the user's home, the user can Figure 2 The device adding control in the first interactive interface shown in the figure is selected to trigger the first display panel to present a fourth interactive interface containing various candidate device controls. Afterwards, the user can select the target candidate device control required from the various candidate device controls, so that the new electrical device can be added to the various candidate electrical devices for the user to select when setting the slave electrical device. Similarly, taking the main electrical device as a clothes dryer as an example, the user can select Figure 3 The device adding control in the first interactive interface shown is selected to trigger the first display panel to present a fourth interactive interface including various candidate device controls.

[0056] Optionally, in actual application, the embodiment of the present application may also establish a communication connection relationship between the main electrical device and the candidate electrical device in other ways. For example, the user may establish a connection between the main electrical device and the candidate electrical device in the APP used to control the main electrical device and the candidate electrical device (the connection operation interface of the APP is similar to the fourth interactive interface in the embodiment of the present application), thereby establishing a connection between the main electrical device and the candidate electrical device.

[0057] In order to further improve the user experience, in actual application of the embodiment of the present application, the user only needs to establish a connection between the main electrical device and the candidate electrical device once. For example, the user can establish a connection between the main electrical device and the candidate electrical device after the main electrical device and the candidate electrical device are powered on for the first time. After the connection is established, as long as the power cords of the main electrical device and the candidate electrical device are always plugged in, the main electrical device and the candidate electrical device maintain a communication connection state.

[0058] Optionally, the first interactive interface also displays an Internet search switch control. In response to a power-on instruction for the main electrical device, after controlling the first display panel to present the first interactive interface, the control method provided in the embodiment of the present application may further include: when a first preset trigger operation of the user on the Internet search switch control is detected, controlling the main electrical device to turn on a searched function; when a second preset trigger operation of the user on the Internet search switch control is detected, controlling the main electrical device to turn off a searched function.

[0059] The first preset trigger operation and the second preset trigger operation may be two different predetermined trigger operations. For example, the first preset trigger operation may be a click operation on the Internet search switch control, and the second preset trigger operation may be a click operation on the Internet search switch control twice.

[0060] In the embodiment of the present application, in order to further improve the user experience, a custom setting function of the search function of each candidate electrical device can also be provided to the user, and the user can set whether to turn on or off the search function of each candidate electrical device according to actual needs.

[0061] For example, when the user wants to start the search function of the main electrical device, Figure 2 or Figure 3 The Internet search switch control in the first interactive interface shown in the figure performs the first preset trigger operation; when the user wants to turn off the search function of the main electrical device, the user can Figure 2 or Figure 3 The Internet search switch control in the first interactive interface shown performs a second preset trigger operation.

[0062] S102: In response to a user's selection operation on an interconnection function control in the first interaction interface, a slave electrical device interconnected with the master electrical device is acquired, and the first display panel is controlled to present a second interaction interface corresponding to the slave electrical device.

[0063] The second interactive interface may display various slave mode controls and various slave function controls, wherein each slave mode control is used to trigger the operation mode of the slave electrical device, and each slave function control is used to trigger the functional sub-mode of the slave electrical device.

[0064] For example, if the main electrical device is a washing machine and the secondary electrical device is a clothes dryer, when the user wants to use the drying function / care function of the clothes dryer, but the deployment position of the clothes dryer is inconvenient to operate, the user can Figure 2 The interconnection function control shown in the figure is selected, and at this time, the first display panel of the washing machine will be Figure 2 The first interactive interface shown is switched to Figure 4 The second interactive interface is shown.

[0065] In another example, taking the main electrical device as a clothes dryer and the slave electrical device as a washing machine, when the user wants to use the washing function of the washing machine, but the deployment position of the washing machine is inconvenient to operate, the user can Figure 3 The interconnection function control shown in the figure is selected, and the first display panel of the dryer will be Figure 3 The first interactive interface shown is switched to Figure 5 The second interactive interface is shown.

[0066] Optionally, in a possible implementation manner, controlling the first display panel to present a second interaction interface corresponding to the slave electrical device may include: controlling the first display panel to cancel display of the first interaction interface and display the second interaction interface.

[0067] For example, taking the master electrical device as a washing machine and the slave electrical device as a clothes dryer, the user Figure 2 After selecting the interconnection function control shown, the first display panel will cancel the display Figure 2 The first interactive interface shown in FIG. Figure 4 The second interactive interface shown. Figure 4 As shown, the second interactive interface cancels the display of controls related to the interconnected device (e.g., interconnected function controls, device addition controls, etc.), and displays the operation controls of the dryer (e.g., drying sub-mode controls, care sub-mode controls, etc.). Figure 4 As shown, a return control may also be displayed in the second interactive interface, and the user may select the return control to trigger the first display panel to switch back to the first display panel. Figure 2 Similarly, taking the master electrical device as a clothes dryer and the slave electrical device as a washing machine as an example, the user Figure 3 After selecting the interconnection function control shown, the first display panel will cancel the display Figure 3 The first interactive interface shown in FIG. Figure 5 The second interactive interface is shown.

[0068] Optionally, the first interactive interface includes a main display partition and a preset interconnected partition, the main display partition displays each main mode control and each main function control, and the first display panel is controlled to present a second interactive interface corresponding to the slave electrical device, including: controlling the first display panel to superimpose each slave mode control and each slave function control on the preset interconnected partition of the first interactive interface to present the second interactive interface.

[0069] Among them, the main display partition is used to display the operation controls (including function controls and mode controls) of the main electrical device, and the preset interconnection partition is used to display the operation controls of the slave electrical device. After the main electrical device is turned on, the first display panel only displays the operation controls of the main electrical device by default, that is, the preset interconnection partition in the first interactive interface does not display anything. When the user needs to use the slave electrical device, he can select the interconnection function controls in the main display partition to trigger the first display panel to present the operation controls of the slave electrical device in the preset interconnection partition.

[0070] Reference Figure 6 Taking the master electrical device as a washing machine and the slave electrical device as a clothes dryer as an example, the present application embodiment provides an interface schematic diagram of a second interactive interface. Figure 6 As shown, the second interactive interface includes a main display partition and a preset interconnection partition. The main display partition displays controls related to interconnected devices (e.g., interconnection function controls, device addition controls, etc.), and operation controls for washing machines, and the preset interconnection partition displays operation controls for dryers and return controls, etc. The user can trigger the first display panel to cancel displaying the contents of the preset interconnection partition by selecting the return control in the preset interconnection partition.

[0071] Reference Figure 7 Taking the master electrical device as a clothes dryer and the slave electrical device as a washing machine as an example, the present application embodiment provides an interface schematic diagram of a second interactive interface. Figure 7 As shown, the second interactive interface includes a main display partition and a preset interconnection partition. The main display partition displays controls related to interconnected devices (e.g., interconnection function controls, device addition controls, etc.), and operation controls for dryers, etc., and the preset interconnection partition displays operation controls for washing machines, and return controls, etc. The user can trigger the first display panel to cancel displaying the contents of the preset interconnection partition by selecting the return control in the preset interconnection partition.

[0072] In an embodiment of the present application, by splitting the display content of the first display panel of the main electrical device, the first display panel of the main electrical device can simultaneously display the operation controls of the main electrical device and the operation controls of the slave electrical device, so that the user can control the startup of the slave electrical device by operating on the main electrical device.

[0073] S103, obtaining a target slave mode control selected by the user from each slave mode control of the second interactive interface, and a target slave function control selected from each slave function control of the second interactive interface, and controlling the slave electrical device to start operation based on the operation mode corresponding to the target slave mode control and the function sub-mode corresponding to the target slave function control.

[0074] In the embodiment of the present application, after the user triggers the first display panel to display the second interactive interface by selecting the interconnected function control, the user can select the required target slave mode control from each slave mode control of the second interactive interface and select the required target slave function control from each slave function control of the second interactive interface as required. The user's selection operation of the target slave function control can trigger the control device to control the slave electrical device to start running based on the operation mode corresponding to the target slave mode control and the functional sub-mode corresponding to the target slave function control.

[0075] In a possible implementation, both the master electrical device and the slave electrical device include a communication module. After detecting the user's selection operation on the target slave mode control, the control device can send a control instruction to the slave electrical device through the communication module of the master electrical device, which is used to instruct the slave electrical device to start running based on the operating mode corresponding to the target slave mode control and the functional sub-mode corresponding to the target slave functional control. Exemplarily, the communication module can be a wireless communication module such as a Bluetooth module, a ZigBee technology module, a 4G communication module, or a 5G communication module, which is not limited in the embodiments of the present application.

[0076] Optionally, the first interactive interface also displays a start lock control and a linkage lock control, the start lock control is used to trigger the lock function, and the linkage lock control is used to trigger the one-key linkage function. After obtaining the target slave mode control selected by the user from each slave mode control of the second interactive interface and the target slave function control selected from each slave function control of the second interactive interface, the control method provided in the embodiment of the present application may also include: determining whether the lock function is triggered, and determining whether the one-key linkage function is triggered; if it is determined that the lock function is not triggered and the one-key linkage function is not triggered, triggering the execution control of the slave electrical equipment based on the operation mode corresponding to the target slave mode control and the function sub-mode corresponding to the target slave function control to start running.

[0077] Among them, after the lock function is triggered, when the user selects each slave function control, the slave electrical device will not start running. After the one-key linkage function is triggered, the master electrical device will control the master electrical device itself and the slave electrical device to start running continuously based on the predetermined linkage rules. It should be noted that the one-key linkage function has a higher priority than the lock function.

[0078] In the embodiment of the present application, the user can also be provided with a device lock function and a one-key linkage function. Based on the lock function and the one-key linkage function, the user can control the main electrical device and the slave electrical device to automatically start up continuously through operations performed on the first display panel. In this way, the user's needs for continuous use of multiple electrical devices can be met, thereby further improving the user's experience.

[0079] Optionally, in response to the user's selection operation on the interconnected function control in the first interactive interface, a slave electrical device interconnected with the main electrical device is obtained, and before the first display panel is controlled to present the second interactive interface corresponding to the slave electrical device, the method provided in the embodiment of the present application may also include: in response to the user's selection operation on the start lock control, triggering the lock function; obtaining the target main mode control selected by the user from the main mode controls of the first interactive interface, and the target main function control selected from the main function controls of the first interactive interface; after obtaining the target slave mode control selected by the user from the slave mode controls of the second interactive interface, and the target slave function control selected from the slave function controls of the second interactive interface, the method also includes: in response to the user's selection operation on the linkage lock control, triggering the one-key linkage function.

[0080] In an embodiment of the present application, a technical solution for realizing a one-key linkage function by starting a lock control and a linkage lock control can be provided to the user. Specifically, when the user has a demand for automatically controlling the main electrical device and the slave electrical device to start continuously, after the main electrical device is turned on, the user can first trigger the lock function by touching the start lock control, and then the user can select the target main mode control, the target slave mode control, the target main function control, and the target slave function control according to the demand. Then, the one-key linkage function can be triggered by touching the linkage lock control, so that the main electrical device and the slave electrical device can be controlled to start and run continuously according to the required operation mode and functional sub-mode.

[0081] Taking the main electrical device as the first linkage device and the slave electrical device as the subsequent linkage device as an example, after the one-key linkage function is triggered, the control device can first control the main electrical device itself to start running based on the operating mode corresponding to the target main mode control and the functional sub-mode corresponding to the target main function control; thereafter, if it is determined that the operating parameters of the main electrical device meet the linkage conversion conditions corresponding to the one-key linkage function, the main electrical device itself is controlled to stop running, and the slave electrical device is controlled to start running based on the operating mode corresponding to the target slave mode control and the functional sub-mode corresponding to the target slave function control.

[0082] In the embodiment of the present application, the electrical device that runs first is started when the first linkage device is automatically running, and the electrical device that runs later is started when the second linkage device is automatically running. The linkage conversion condition can be a condition determined in advance, for example, the linkage conversion condition can be that the running time reaches a preset time.

[0083] In a possible implementation, when it is determined that the operating parameters of the main electrical device meet the linkage conversion conditions corresponding to the first linkage mode control, the target main function control may also be displayed flashingly to remind the user that the current execution device has changed.

[0084] Optionally, while controlling the main electrical device itself to start operation based on the operating mode corresponding to the target main mode control and the functional sub-mode corresponding to the target main function control, the control method provided in the embodiment of the present application may also include: controlling the slave electrical device to pre-start based on the linkage rules.

[0085] The linkage rule may be a predetermined rule. For example, if the electrical device is a clothes dryer, the linkage rule may be to control the clothes dryer to start preheating.

[0086] Taking the slave electrical device as the first linkage device and the master electrical device as the subsequent linkage device as an example, after the one-key linkage function is triggered, the control device can first control the slave electrical device to start running based on the operating mode corresponding to the target slave mode control and the functional sub-mode corresponding to the target slave function control; thereafter, if it is determined that the operating parameters of the slave electrical device meet the linkage conversion conditions corresponding to the one-key linkage function, the slave electrical device is controlled to stop running, and the master electrical device itself is controlled to start running based on the operating mode corresponding to the target main mode control and the functional sub-mode corresponding to the target main function control.

[0087] In the embodiment of the present application, in order to better realize the linkage between the master electrical device and the slave electrical device, the subsequent linkage device can be controlled to pre-start when the previous linkage device starts running. In this way, when the subsequent linkage device is officially started and running, the subsequent linkage device can quickly enter the optimal operating state.

[0088] In addition, in an application scenario of an embodiment of the present application, both the main electrical device and the slave electrical device are provided with a display panel. In this case, the device attributes of the electrical device may change. Taking a washing machine and a clothes dryer deployed in a user's home as an example, both the washing machine and the clothes dryer may be provided with a display panel. The user may use the washing machine as the main electrical device and the clothes dryer as the slave electrical device, and control the washing machine or the clothes dryer by operating on the display panel of the washing machine. At this time, the display panel of the washing machine is the first display panel, and the display panel of the clothes dryer is the second display panel. In addition, the user may also use the clothes dryer as the main electrical device and the washing machine as the slave electrical device, and control the washing machine or the clothes dryer by operating on the display panel of the clothes dryer. At this time, the display panel of the washing machine is the second display panel, and the display panel of the clothes dryer is the first display panel.

[0089] In another application scenario of the embodiment of the present application, only the main electrical device is provided with a display panel, in which case the device attributes of the electrical device are fixed. Taking a washing machine and a clothes dryer as an example, the manufacturer of the electrical device may only provide a display panel on the washing machine, but not on the clothes dryer. The user can only use the washing machine as the main electrical device and the clothes dryer as the slave electrical device, and control the washing machine or the clothes dryer by operating on the display panel of the washing machine.

[0090] Optionally, the slave electrical device includes a second display panel, and while controlling the slave electrical device to start running based on an operation mode corresponding to the target slave mode control and a function sub-mode corresponding to the target slave function control, the control method provided in the embodiment of the present application may further include:

[0091] The first display panel is controlled to display the operating parameters of the slave electrical equipment, and the display content of the first display panel is synchronously displayed on the second display panel.

[0092] For example, the operating parameter may be the remaining time of the device operation. Figure 4 Taking the second interactive interface shown as an example, after the electrical appliance dryer is started, the second interactive interface can display the remaining running time of the dryer, and the remaining running time can be synchronously displayed on the second display panel of the dryer.

[0093] Based on the above description, in the control method provided in the embodiment of the present application, the first display panel of the master electrical device can present a first interactive interface after the master electrical device is turned on, and the first interactive interface is deployed with an interconnection function control. When the user has a need to use the slave electrical device, the interconnection function control in the first interactive interface can be operated to trigger the first display panel to present a second interactive interface corresponding to the slave electrical device, and the second interactive interface displays each slave mode control for triggering the operation mode of the slave electrical device, and each slave function control for triggering the functional sub-mode of the slave electrical device. The user can select the target slave mode control and the target slave function control required in the second interactive interface, and the master electrical device can control the slave electrical device to start running based on the operation mode corresponding to the target slave mode control and the functional sub-mode corresponding to the target slave function control. It can be seen that in the embodiment of the present application, the user can switch the operation interface of the master electrical device (i.e., the first interactive interface in the present application) to the operation interface of the slave electrical device (i.e., the second interactive interface in the present application) by operating on the first display panel, so that the slave electrical device can be controlled to start running according to the operation mode and functional sub-mode required by the user by selecting the operation in the second interactive interface. In this way, when the deployment position of a certain electrical device is not convenient for user operation, the user can complete the operation of the electrical device on another electrical device (the deployment position is convenient for user operation). Therefore, the embodiment of the present application can solve the problem of user operation inconvenience caused by the electrical device being deployed too high, thereby improving the user experience.
