[0059] In order to make the above-mentioned purposes, features and advantages of the present invention more obvious and easy to understand, the present invention will be further described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are part of the embodiments of the present invention, rather than all the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0060] At present, in the smart home system, various smart home devices are connected through the central control device, so that the operating status of various smart home devices and scenes can be centrally controlled and displayed. When adding a new central control device to an existing smart home system, it is necessary to manually connect the central control device to each smart home device, and then configure each smart home device and scene in the central control device. Therefore, when there are many smart home devices and scenes in the smart home system, the operation of adding a new central control device is cumbersome, which affects the user experience.

[0061] The present invention establishes communication between the target central control device and the home host, and the mobile terminal obtains the configuration information of the room where the target central control device is located, and sends it to the target central control device through the home host, so that the target central control device can be directly configured according to the obtained configuration information, thereby simplifying the user's operation.

[0062] The present invention provides a configuration method for a central control device, which will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings:

[0063] Reference Figure 1 , shows a flowchart of a configuration method of a central control device provided by some embodiments of the present invention, which is applied to a mobile terminal and may specifically include the following steps:

[0064] Step 101, obtaining network distribution information;

[0065] It is worth mentioning that in actual application scenarios, the entire smart home system includes mobile terminals, smart home devices, central control devices and home hosts.

[0066] In the present invention, the mobile terminal may be an electronic device such as a smart phone, a tablet, a laptop, etc., and an application or a small program for configuring the central control device is installed in the mobile terminal.

[0067] Smart home devices can include air conditioners, desk lamps, humidifiers, sweepers, washing machines, electric curtains and other home appliances.

[0068] The central control device can be a terminal display device such as a central control screen, a tablet, or a laptop computer.

[0069] The home host can be a central control box, a smart home gateway, an embedded device, etc.

[0070] It is worth noting that the present invention does not impose any restrictions on the specific types of mobile terminals, smart home devices, central control devices and home hosts.

[0071] Reference Figure 2 , which shows an application scenario diagram of a configuration method of a central control device provided in some embodiments of the present invention.

[0072] In this embodiment, the mobile terminal is a smart phone installed with a small program for configuring a central control device; the central control device is a central control screen.

[0073] In this embodiment, the network configuration information includes the account and password of the wireless network in the home. In other embodiments, the network configuration information may include any other information used for communication, and the present invention is not limited to this.

[0074] like Figure 2 As shown, there are multiple rooms in the home, such as a living room, a master bedroom, a guest bedroom, and a bathroom, etc. There is one or more central control screens in each room, and the central control screens are connected to the home host via a wireless network so that the home host can communicate with all central control screens.

[0075] At the same time, the home host and the smart home devices also establish communication. The home host can obtain and store all the smart home device information and scene information in the home. Among them, the smart home device information includes the type of home device, the name of the home device, and the status information of the home device, etc. The scene information includes the scene name and scene action, etc. For example, the scene named "Leaving Home" contains scene actions such as turning off the air conditioner and turning off the desk lamp. That is, the home host can obtain the configuration information of all rooms.

[0076] Users obtain the network distribution information in their home through the mini-program in their mobile phones and send it to the central control screen, thereby connecting the central control screen to the home host. The home host can then send the room configuration information to the central control screen in the room, and then the central control screen can bind to the smart home devices in the room, control them and display their operating status.

[0077] In this embodiment, the mobile phone stores the account and password of the wireless network, and the applet for configuring the central control device obtains the account and password of the wireless network by sending a request for obtaining network configuration information to the mobile phone.

[0078] Step 102, sending network configuration information to the target central control device, so that the target central control device establishes communication with the home host according to the network configuration information;

[0079] In some embodiments, this step also includes establishing communication with the target central control device.

[0080] Specifically, the target central control device releases the hotspot; the mobile terminal finds the hotspot released by the target central control device by searching for hotspots that meet the naming specifications, and connects to it; after the connection is successful, the mobile terminal sends the network configuration information to the target central control device.

[0081] As an example, the naming convention that meets the mobile terminal search may be: GR-SCC_ID corresponding to the central control category_ID corresponding to the central control model_last four digits of the device wifi MAC_network configuration method code. In other embodiments, the naming convention may be other regular naming, which is not limited by the present invention.

[0082] The hotspot name of the target central control device includes the category ID and model ID of the target central control device, so that the mobile terminal can confirm that the hotspot is released by the target central control device.

[0083] As an example, when the mobile terminal and the target central control device adopt Bluetooth flash pairing to configure the network, the mobile terminal will first send the bind information to the target central control device using a public key encryption package; after receiving the information, the target central control device will assemble its own device information public key encryption package according to the protocol requirements and reply to the mobile terminal; after receiving the information, the mobile terminal determines whether the device information public key encryption package replied by the target central control device complies with the protocol. If it complies with the protocol, it uses the central control private key to encrypt the network configuration information and reply to the target central control device; after receiving the information, the target central control device uses its own central control private key to decrypt it, thereby obtaining the network configuration information, that is, the account and password of the wireless network.

[0084] In other embodiments, the mobile terminal and the target central control device may also be connected to the network in other ways, which is not limited in the present invention.

[0085] Step 103, after the target central control device establishes communication with the home host, the home host sends configuration information of the room where the target central control device is located to the target central control device;

[0086] The configuration information includes the device information and scene information of the room where the target central control device is located.

[0087] The mobile terminal sends the configuration information of the room where the target central control device is located to the target central control device through the home host, so that the target central control device can be directly configured according to the obtained configuration information, thereby realizing the rapid configuration of the newly added central control device.

[0088] In some embodiments, the step further includes, if the target central control device fails to establish communication with the home host, the mobile terminal receives a network configuration failure notification and a reason for the network configuration failure sent by the target central control device, wherein the reason for the network configuration failure may be an incorrect wireless network password, a power failure of the home host, etc.;

[0089] The mobile terminal obtains and displays the reason for the network configuration failure and related solution steps according to the reason for the network configuration failure.

[0090] In the configuration method of the central control device provided by the embodiment of the present invention, the user obtains and sends the network configuration information through the mobile terminal, so that the target central control device and the home host can establish communication based on the network configuration information. And the mobile terminal can obtain the configuration information of the room where the target central control device is located, and then send it to the target central control device through the home host, so that the target central control device can be directly configured according to the configuration information. Among them, the configuration information includes the device information and scene information of the room where the target central control device is located. The target central control device can directly bind the devices in the room according to the device information, and directly associate the existing scenes in the room according to the scene information. Rapid configuration of the newly added central control device is achieved, and in the actual scenario of the newly added central control device, the user's operation is simplified and the user experience is improved.

[0091] In some embodiments, step 103 may include the following sub-steps:

[0092] Sub-step S11, if there is no other central control device in the room where the target central control device is located, obtaining configuration information of the room where the target central control device is located;

[0093] The mobile terminal stores the relevant information of the central control device in each room. After selecting the room where the target central control device is located in the mobile terminal, the mobile terminal can determine whether the condition that there are no other central control devices in the room where the target central control device is located is met based on the above information. If the condition that there are no other central control devices in the room where the target central control device is located is met, the mobile terminal directly obtains the configuration information of the room where the target central control device is located.

[0094] In some embodiments, the configuration information includes information such as a room ID and a room name of the room where the target central control device is located, so that the home host can obtain detailed configuration information of the room according to the room ID and the room name.

[0095] Sub-step S12, sending the configuration information of the room where the target central control device is located to the home host, so that the home host sends the configuration information of the room where the target central control device is located to the target central control device.

[0096] In some embodiments, if there is no other central control device in the room where the target central control device is located, the mobile terminal directly sends configuration information to the home host. The home host obtains the latest detailed configuration information of the room based on the received configuration information, and then sends the detailed configuration information to the target central control device, thereby ensuring that the configuration information sent to the target central control device is complete and up-to-date.

[0097] In some embodiments, step 103 may include the following sub-steps:

[0098] Sub-step S21, if there is another central control device in the room where the target central control device is located, output a reminder message, the reminder message is used to remind the user to confirm that the central control device needs to be copied or replaced;

[0099] Specifically, when a central control device is added to a room, there may be no other central control devices in the room, or there may be other existing central control devices. When there are no other central control devices in the room, the user's demand is only to add a new central control device, but when there are other existing central control devices in the room, the user's demand may be to replace the existing central control device or to copy the existing central control device.

[0100] If there are other central control devices in the room where the target central control device is located, the mobile terminal outputs a reminder message to remind the user to confirm the need to copy the central control device or replace the central control device, providing the user with multiple options. By considering the possible situations in which the newly added central control device may occur in actual application scenarios, different operation procedures are formulated according to each situation to meet different needs. The embodiment of the present invention performs different specific operations according to the user's selection requirements, fully considering the user's needs.

[0101] Sub-step S22, after the user confirms that the central control device needs to be copied, a copy instruction is sent to the home host, so that the home host obtains the configuration information of other central control devices according to the copy instruction and sends the configuration information of other central control devices to the target central control device.

[0102] In actual application scenarios, due to various practical needs, such as the room area is too large, it is not convenient to control with only one central control device, etc., there is a need for multiple central control devices to control a room, that is, the central control device needs to be copied.

[0103] It is worth noting that the copying here means to copy all the room configuration information in the existing central control device to the newly added target central control device, that is, the room configuration information in the existing central control device and the newly added target central control device is the same.

[0104] As an example, in scenario 1, central control device A only turns on the second relay, and central control device B copies central control device A, that is, central control device B is set to only turn on the second relay when receiving the instruction to execute scenario 1; central control device A turns off all relays in scenario 2, and central control device B copies central control device A, that is, central control device B is set to also turn off all relays when receiving the instruction to execute scenario 2.

[0105] Sub-step S23, after the user confirms that the central control device needs to be replaced, a replacement instruction is sent to the home host, so that the home host obtains the configuration information of other central control devices according to the replacement instruction and sends the configuration information of other central control devices to the target central control device, and sends an unbinding instruction to other central control devices.

[0106] If the user needs to replace other existing central control devices due to low configuration or other reasons, the user can obtain the configuration information of other central control devices by sending a replacement command and send an unbinding command to other central control devices, thereby realizing the replacement function of the central control device, which is convenient and fast.

[0107] Reference Figure 3 , shows a flowchart of another method for configuring a central control device provided by some embodiments of the present invention, which is applied to a home host and may specifically include the following steps:

[0108] Step 201, establishing communication with the target central control device;

[0109] Specifically, the target central control device establishes User Datagram Protocol (UDP) communication with the home host. After the target central control device obtains the network configuration information, it sends a UDP binding packet to the home host device, and the UDP binding packet contains the central control device related information. After receiving it, the home host replies to the target central control device with a ubindOK packet according to the protocol requirements, and the ubindOK packet contains the network configuration home related information; the target central control device receives the ubindOK packet and establishes UDP communication with the home host.

[0110] The target central control device establishes UDP communication with the home host so that the target central control device can obtain the IP of the home host and establish Transmission Control Protocol (TCP) communication. The reliability of TCP communication is higher than that of UDP communication. The target central control device establishes TCP communication with the home host to ensure the accuracy of daily data synchronization in the subsequent process.

[0111] In other embodiments, the target central control device and the home host may establish other protocol communications, which is not limited in the present invention.

[0112] Step 202, after establishing communication with the target central control device, obtain configuration information of the room where the target central control device is located;

[0113] Specifically, after the home host successfully establishes communication with the target central control device, the target central control device will send a network configuration success notification to the mobile terminal. After receiving the network configuration success notification, the mobile terminal sends the configuration information of the room where the target central control device is located to the home host.

[0114] In some embodiments, step 202 further includes: the home host obtains the room ID and room name of the room where the target central control device is located according to the received configuration information, and then obtains detailed configuration information of the room according to the room ID and room name. The detailed configuration information includes the room name of the room where the target central control device is located, the device list and device status in the room, the scene list and scene action, and the device priority and other related information.

[0115] Step 203, sending the configuration information of the room where the target central control device is located to the target central control device;

[0116] The configuration information includes the device information and scene information of the room where the target central control device is located.

[0117] The home host sends the configuration information of the room where the target central control device is located to the target central control device, so that the target central control device can be directly configured according to the obtained configuration information, thereby realizing the rapid configuration of the newly added central control device.

[0118] In the configuration method of the central control device provided by the embodiment of the present invention, the home host establishes communication with the target central control device, so that the home host can send configuration information to the target central control device. Thus, the target central control device can be directly configured according to the acquired configuration information. Among them, the configuration information includes the device information and scene information of the room where the target central control device is located. The target central control device directly binds the devices in the room according to the device information, and directly associates the existing scenes in the room according to the scene information. The function of quickly configuring the newly added central control device is realized, which reduces the user's operation steps, thereby improving the user experience.

[0119] In some embodiments, step 202 may include the following sub-steps:

[0120] Sub-step S31, receiving configuration information of the room where the target central control device is located sent by the mobile terminal;

[0121] When there is no other central control device in the room where the target central control device is located, the home host only receives the configuration information of the room where the target central control device is located, which is sent by the mobile terminal.

[0122] Sub-step S41, receiving a copy instruction sent by a mobile terminal;

[0123] Sub-step S42, obtaining configuration information of other central control devices in the room where the target central control device is located according to the copy instruction;

[0124] When the user chooses to copy an existing central control device, the home host receives the copy instruction sent by the mobile terminal, and obtains the configuration information of other central control devices in the room where the target central control device is located according to the copy instruction.

[0125] As an example, the central control device A has placed the bedside lamp, bedroom air conditioner, bedroom ceiling light and socket on the top, and the configuration information of the central control device A includes the above priority setting information. Then, according to the configuration information of the central control device A, the central control device B will also be configured to place the bedside lamp, bedroom air conditioner, bedroom ceiling light and socket on the top with priority settings.

[0126] In other embodiments, the central control device may also perform other configurations according to the configuration information, such as adding scenes, modifying device names, etc., and the present invention does not impose any limitation on this.

[0127] Sub-step S51, receiving a replacement instruction sent by the mobile terminal;

[0128] Sub-step S52, acquiring configuration information of other central control devices in the room where the target central control device is located according to the replacement instruction;

[0129] When the user chooses to replace the existing central control device, the home host receives the replacement instruction sent by the mobile terminal, and obtains the configuration information of other central control devices in the room where the target central control device is located according to the replacement instruction.

[0130] In some embodiments, the method further comprises:

[0131] According to the replacement instruction, send the unbinding instruction to other central control devices;

[0132] Specifically, after receiving the unbinding instruction, the other central control devices delete the room information and configuration information therein. This instruction operation can ensure the privacy security of the user, and also facilitate the binding of the unbound central control device with other rooms.

[0143] The configuration information includes device information and scene information of the room where the target central control device is located;

[0144] In some embodiments, the mobile terminal is used to obtain the configuration information of the room where the target central control device is located if there is no other central control device in the room where the target central control device is located; and send the configuration information of the room where the target central control device is located to the home host, so that the home host sends the configuration information of the room where the target central control device is located to the target central control device. The home host is used to receive the configuration information of the room where the target central control device is located sent by the mobile terminal.

[0145] In some embodiments, the mobile terminal is used to output a reminder message if there is another central control device in the room where the target central control device is located, and the reminder message is used to remind the user to confirm that the central control device needs to be copied or replaced;

[0146] In some embodiments, after the user confirms that the central control device needs to be copied, the mobile terminal is used to send a copy instruction to the home host, so that the home host obtains the configuration information of other central control devices according to the copy instruction and sends the configuration information of other central control devices to the target central control device. The home host is used to receive the copy instruction sent by the mobile terminal; according to the copy instruction, obtain the configuration information of other central control devices in the room where the target central control device is located.

[0147] In some embodiments, after the user confirms that the central control device needs to be replaced, the mobile terminal is used to send a replacement instruction to the home host, so that the home host obtains the configuration information of other central control devices according to the replacement instruction and sends the configuration information of other central control devices to the target central control device, and sends an unbinding instruction to other central control devices. The home host is used to receive the replacement instruction sent by the mobile terminal; according to the replacement instruction, obtain the configuration information of other central control devices in the room where the target central control device is located.

[0148] In some embodiments, the home host is also used to send an unbinding instruction to other central control devices according to the replacement instruction.

[0149] In some embodiments, the home host is used to verify the configuration information of the room where the target central control device is located.

[0150] In some embodiments, the home host is used to send the configuration information of the room where the target central control device is located to the target central control device after the configuration information of the room where the target central control device is located is verified.

[0151] The configuration system of the central control device provided in the embodiment of the present invention obtains and sends the network configuration information to the target central control device through the mobile terminal, so that the target central control device and the home host can establish communication based on the network configuration information. At the same time, the mobile terminal obtains the configuration information of the room where the target central control device is located, and sends it to the target central control device through the home host, so that the target central control device can be directly configured according to the configuration information. Among them, the configuration information includes the device information and scene information of the room where the target central control device is located. The target central control device can directly bind the devices in the room according to the device information, and directly associate the existing scenes in the room according to the scene information. Rapid configuration of the newly added central control device is achieved, which simplifies the user's operation and improves the user experience in the actual scenario of the newly added central control device.

[0152] In addition, the embodiment of the present invention takes into account the situations that may occur when adding a central control device in actual application scenarios, and formulates different operation procedures according to each situation to meet different needs. When there are other central control devices in the room where the target central control device is located, the user is provided with two options: copying the central control device and replacing the central control device, which fully considers the user needs and further improves the user experience.

[0153] For a better understanding of the present invention, refer to Figure 4 To explain, Figure 4 A flowchart of the steps of another configuration method of a central control device provided by an embodiment of the present invention. Specifically, the following steps may be included:

[0154] 1) The target central control device releases the hotspot;

[0155] 2) The user uses a mobile terminal to enter the network configuration page of the application for configuring the central control device; after entering the network configuration page, the application automatically searches for hotspots that meet the naming specifications and connects;

[0156] 3) After the mobile terminal is successfully connected to the target central control device, the mobile terminal sends the account and password of the home wireless network to the target central control device;

[0157] This step also includes, after the mobile terminal is successfully connected to the target central control device, selecting the room where the target central control device is located, that is, selecting the room to which the target central control device needs to be bound. Specifically, the mobile terminal displays a selection page for the room to which the target central control device can be bound, and the user makes a selection to determine.

[0158] Among them, the mobile terminal can select the room to which the target central control device needs to be bound by default according to the location of the mobile terminal when selecting a room. For example, when entering the page for selecting the room where the target central control device is located, if the mobile terminal is located in the bedroom, the room to which the target central control device needs to be bound by default is the bedroom. However, this default selection is not fixed, and the user can modify the default selection.

[0159] 4) The target central control device connects to the router in the home according to the obtained wireless network account and password; after the target central control device connects to the wireless network in the home, it attempts to establish communication with the home host;

[0160] 5) After the target central control device successfully establishes communication with the home host, the target central control device sends a network configuration success notification to the mobile terminal;

[0161] 6) After receiving the notification of successful network configuration, the mobile terminal sends the configuration information of the room where the target central control device is located to the home host;

[0162] This step includes the mobile terminal determining whether there are other central control devices in the room where the target central control device is located based on the central control information of the room where the target central control device is located stored in the mobile terminal;

[0163] If there is no other central control device in the room where the target central control device is located, the mobile terminal directly sends the configuration information of the room where the target central control device is located to the home host;

[0164] If there are other central control devices in the room where the target central control device is located, the mobile terminal outputs a reminder message to remind the user to confirm that the central control device needs to be copied or replaced;

[0165] After the user confirms that the central control device needs to be copied, the mobile terminal sends a copy instruction to the home host. The home host obtains the configuration information of other central control devices according to the copy instruction and sends the configuration information of other central control devices to the target central control device.

[0166] After the user confirms that the central control device needs to be replaced, the mobile terminal sends a replacement instruction to the home host. According to the replacement instruction, the home host obtains the configuration information of other central control devices and sends the configuration information of other central control devices to the target central control device, and sends an unbinding instruction to other central control devices.

[0167] 7) The home host verifies the received configuration information and sends the detailed configuration information to the target central control device after the verification passes;

[0168] This step includes, after the home host receives the configuration information of the room where the target central control device is located sent by the mobile terminal, obtaining the latest detailed configuration information from the device in the room where the target central control device is located; the home host verifies the configuration information sent by the mobile terminal according to the latest detailed configuration information, and finally generates detailed configuration information for sending to the target central control device;

[0169] This step includes, after the home host receives the copy instruction sent by the mobile terminal, obtaining the configuration information of other central control devices; sending the configuration information of other central control devices to the target central control device;

[0170] This step includes, after the home host receives the replacement instruction sent by the mobile terminal, obtaining the configuration information of other central control devices; sending the configuration information of other central control devices to the target central control device; and sending an unbinding instruction to other central control devices.

[0171] 8) The target central control device is configured according to the configuration information;

[0172] Specifically, the configuration information includes device list information, device status information, scene list information, scene action information, etc. The target central control device adds each device and scene according to the above information, and displays the device list, device status, scene list, scene action, etc.

[0173] 9) Daily data communication between the home host and the target central control device.

[0174] After the target central control device is configured, it can be used daily. During daily use, the user may change the equipment and scenes in the room through the target central control device. For example, the user modifies the name of a certain device on the central control device, the user modifies the scene action of a certain scene on the central control device, etc. Therefore, the target central control device needs to generate the changed configuration information and send it to the home host after the user makes the change.

[0175] In daily use, the home host will also send various control instructions to the target central control device. For example, when the home host needs to replace the target central control device, it will send a configuration information reporting instruction and an unbinding instruction to the target central control device so that the home host can complete the replacement operation.

[0183] The mobile terminal stores the relevant information of the central control device in each room. After selecting the room where the target central control device is located in the mobile terminal, it can be determined based on the above information whether the condition that there are no other central control devices in the room where the target central control device is located is met. If the condition that there are no other central control devices in the room where the target central control device is located is met, the first configuration information acquisition submodule directly acquires the configuration information of the room where the target central control device is located.

[0184] The first configuration information sending submodule sends the configuration information of the room where the target central control device is located to the home host, so that the home host sends the configuration information of the room where the target central control device is located to the target central control device.

[0185] In some embodiments, if the room where the target central control device is located does not contain other central control devices, the first configuration information sending submodule sends configuration information to the home host.

[0191] The copy instruction sending submodule is used to send a copy instruction to the home host after the user confirms that the central control device needs to be copied, so that the home host obtains the configuration information of other central control devices according to the copy instruction and sends the configuration information of other central control devices to the target central control device.

[0192] In actual application scenarios, due to various practical needs, such as the room area is too large, it is not convenient to control with only one central control device, etc., there is a need for multiple central control devices to control a room, that is, the central control device needs to be copied.

[0193] The replacement instruction sending submodule is used to send a replacement instruction to the home host after the user confirms that the central control device needs to be replaced, so that the home host can obtain the configuration information of other central control devices according to the replacement instruction and send the configuration information of other central control devices to the target central control device, as well as send an unbinding instruction to other central control devices.

[0194] If the user needs to replace other existing central control devices due to low configuration or other reasons, the user can obtain the configuration information of other central control devices by sending a replacement command and send an unbinding command to other central control devices, thereby realizing the replacement function of the central control device, which is convenient and fast.

[0195] The configuration device of the central control device provided in the embodiment of the present invention obtains and sends network configuration information through a mobile terminal, so that communication can be established between the target central control device and the home host according to the network configuration information. In addition, the mobile terminal can obtain the configuration information of the room where the target central control device is located, and then send it to the target central control device through the home host, so that the target central control device can be directly configured according to the configuration information. Among them, the configuration information includes the device information and scene information of the room where the target central control device is located. The target central control device can directly bind the devices in the room according to the device information, and directly associate the existing scenes in the room according to the scene information. Rapid configuration of the newly added central control device is achieved, and in the actual scenario of the newly added central control device, the user's operation is simplified and the user experience is improved.
