In multi-split air conditioners, a centralized controller can be used to connect multiple indoor units and control them.
[0004] When multiple online centralized controllers have network configuration requirements, multiple centralized controllers to be configured usually appear on the user terminal page at the same time. It is often difficult for users to quickly and accurately determine the target centralized controller for network configuration. It is easy for centralized controller configuration errors to occur and difficult to detect. The network configuration accuracy is not high, resulting in low centralized controller configuration efficiency. Summary of the Invention

[0009] In this solution, when the centralized controller and the mobile terminal enter the network configuration mode, the user selects a centralized controller from the list of centralized controllers to be configured displayed on the mobile terminal, and sends a first broadcast guidance instruction through the mobile terminal; the centralized controller receives the first broadcast guidance instruction, and when it is determined that the pre-stored physical address is consistent with the physical address in the received first broadcast guidance instruction, it determines that the centralized controller itself is the target centralized controller and issues a prompt, so that the user can quickly determine whether the centralized controller selected by the user in the mobile terminal is the centralized controller to be configured according to the prompt of the centralized controller, and quickly adjust it when the centralized controller is selected incorrectly, thereby reducing the situation where the centralized controller configuration errors are difficult to detect, improving the network configuration accuracy, and improving the network configuration efficiency of the centralized controller.

The first broadcast guidance instruction is used to trigger the centralized controller to issue a prompt when it determines that the pre-stored physical address is consistent with the physical address in the first broadcast guidance instruction.

The user can quickly determine whether the centralized controller selected by the user in the mobile terminal is the centralized controller he needs to configure based on the prompt of the centralized controller, and quickly adjust it when the centralized controller is selected incorrectly, thereby reducing the situation where the centralized controller configuration errors are difficult to detect, improving the network configuration accuracy, and improving the network configuration efficiency of the centralized controller.

Of course, they are merely examples and are not intended to limit the present invention. In addition, the present invention may repeat reference numbers and / or reference letters in different examples. Such repetition is for the purpose of simplicity and clarity and does not in itself indicate the relationship between the various embodiments and / or settings discussed. In addition, the present invention provides examples of various specific processes and materials, but those skilled in the art will recognize the application of other processes and / or the use of other materials.
[0050] Air conditioners use a compressor, condenser, expansion valve, and evaporator to perform their cooling and heating cycles. A controller controls the flow of refrigerant and the opening of the expansion valve. These cycles involve a series of processes, including compression, condensation, expansion, and evaporation, supplying refrigerant to the conditioned and heat-exchanged air.
[0051] The compressor compresses high-temperature, high-pressure refrigerant gas and discharges the compressed gas. The discharged refrigerant gas flows into the condenser. The condenser condenses the compressed refrigerant into a liquid phase, releasing heat into the surrounding environment through the condensation process.
[0052] The expansion valve expands the high-temperature, high-pressure liquid refrigerant condensed in the condenser to a lower-pressure liquid. The evaporator evaporates the refrigerant expanded in the expansion valve and returns the low-temperature, low-pressure refrigerant gas to the compressor. The evaporator achieves cooling by utilizing the latent heat of evaporation to exchange heat with the material being cooled. Throughout this cycle, the air conditioner regulates the temperature of the indoor space.
[0053] The air conditioner outdoor unit refers to a portion of a refrigeration cycle including a compressor and an outdoor heat exchanger, the air conditioner indoor unit includes an indoor heat exchanger, and the expansion valve may be provided in the air conditioner outdoor unit or the indoor unit.
[0054] The indoor heat exchanger and the outdoor heat exchanger function as a condenser or an evaporator. When the indoor heat exchanger functions as a condenser, the air conditioner functions as a heater in heating mode, and when the indoor heat exchanger functions as an evaporator, the air conditioner functions as a cooler in cooling mode.
[0055] A multi-split air conditioner consists of an outdoor unit and multiple indoor units. Each indoor unit is connected to an outdoor unit.
[0056] It's important to understand that when a multi-split air conditioner's central controller is configured for network connection, the interaction between it and the user terminal (such as a mobile phone) is non-directional. When searching for devices on a mobile phone, multiple central controllers in the same space, all in the network connection state, can often be found. This can confuse users, as they don't know which central controller they're operating corresponds to on the phone's search page, nor do they know which of the multiple central controllers listed on the phone's page correspond to each other in the space, leading to confusion.
[0057] Therefore, when multiple centralized controllers in a space are configured at the same time, multiple centralized controllers to be configured will appear on the configuration application (Application, APP) page on the mobile phone. On the one hand, it makes it difficult for users to choose. Users often find it difficult to quickly and accurately select the required target centralized controller for configuration, and it is easy for centralized controller configuration errors to occur and difficult to detect. The configuration accuracy is not high, which reduces the configuration efficiency. On the other hand, since there are multiple centralized controllers in the surrounding space, after the user selects the target centralized controller on the APP page, it is not easy to find the selected target centralized controller in the space to perform related operations, resulting in low efficiency of centralized controller configuration.
[0058] In order to improve the accuracy and efficiency of network configuration of centralized controllers and improve user experience, an embodiment of the present application provides a centralized controller, a mobile terminal, a centralized controller network configuration method and a centralized controller system. When the method detects that the centralized controller and the mobile terminal have entered the network configuration mode, the method controls the display screen of the mobile terminal to display the list of centralized controllers to be configured, and after detecting that a centralized controller is selected from multiple centralized controllers in the centralized controller list, sends a first broadcast guidance instruction to multiple centralized controllers, the first broadcast guidance instruction including the physical address of the centralized controller selected from the multiple centralized controllers in the centralized controller list to be configured; when the centralized controller receives the first broadcast guidance instruction sent by the mobile terminal and determines that the pre-stored physical address is consistent with the physical address in the first broadcast guidance instruction, the centralized controller is controlled to issue a prompt.
[0059] In this solution, when the centralized controller and the mobile terminal enter the network configuration mode, a list of centralized controllers to be configured is displayed on the mobile terminal. The list of centralized controllers includes multiple centralized controllers to be configured. The user selects a centralized controller from the list of centralized controllers to be configured displayed on the mobile terminal, and sends a first broadcast guidance instruction through the mobile terminal. The centralized controller receives the first broadcast guidance instruction, and when it determines that the pre-stored physical address is consistent with the physical address in the received first broadcast guidance instruction, it determines that the centralized controller itself is the target centralized controller and issues a prompt, so that the user can quickly and accurately determine whether the centralized controller selected by the user in the mobile terminal is the centralized controller to be configured based on the prompt of the centralized controller, and quickly adjust the centralized controller when the centralized controller selection is wrong, thereby reducing the situation where the centralized controller configuration error is difficult to find, improving the network configuration accuracy, and improving the network configuration efficiency of the centralized controller.
[0060] The centralized controller network distribution method provided in this embodiment can be applied to a centralized controller network distribution system. The centralized controller network distribution system includes a mobile terminal 11 and a centralized controller 12. The mobile terminal wirelessly communicates with the centralized controller, which controls the operation of a multi-split air conditioner 13. The mobile terminal 11 can communicate with the centralized controller 12 through a cloud server 14, as shown in Figure 1. The mobile terminal can be a mobile phone, a portable Android device (PAD), or the like.
[0061] As shown in FIG2 , the central controller includes a memory 121 and a controller 122. The memory 121 is used to store the physical address of the central controller. The memory 121 and the controller 122 are connected via a cable. As shown in FIG3 , the mobile terminal includes a display screen 111 and a control device 112. The display screen 111 and the control device 112 are connected via a cable. When the control device 112 of the mobile terminal detects that the mobile terminal enters the network configuration mode, the control device 112 controls the display screen 111 of the mobile terminal to display a list of central controllers to be configured, and after detecting that the user selects a central controller from multiple central controllers in the list of central controllers, the control device 112 sends a first broadcast guidance instruction to the multiple central controllers. The first broadcast guidance instruction includes the physical address of the central controller selected from the multiple central controllers in the list of central controllers to be configured. When the controller 122 of the centralized controller detects that the centralized controller has entered the network distribution mode, it waits to receive instructions from the mobile terminal. After the controller 122 of the centralized controller receives the first broadcast guidance instruction sent by the mobile terminal, when it is determined that the pre-stored physical address is consistent with the physical address in the first broadcast guidance instruction, the controller 122 of the centralized controller controls the centralized controller to issue a prompt, such as a light prompt, to indicate that the centralized controller is the centralized controller selected by the user.
[0062] In this solution, users can quickly determine whether the centralized controller selected on the mobile terminal is the one they need to configure based on the prompts of the centralized controller, and make quick adjustments when the centralized controller is selected incorrectly, reducing the situation where centralized controller configuration errors are difficult to detect, improving the accuracy of network configuration, and improving the network configuration efficiency of the centralized controller.
[0063] In some embodiments, as shown in FIG4 , a centralized controller network configuration method is provided. This method is described using the controller of the centralized controller in FIG1 as an example. The controller is configured to perform the following steps:
[0064] SA1: When it is detected that the central controller enters the network distribution mode, a first broadcast guidance instruction sent by the mobile terminal is received.
[0065] During actual use, the centralized controller will automatically enter the network configuration mode after being powered on. Users can also trigger and control the centralized controller to enter the network configuration mode through the relevant trigger controls of the centralized controller. Users can initiate a network configuration search through the relevant application APP page of the mobile terminal to make the mobile terminal enter the network configuration mode; after the mobile terminal enters the network configuration mode, it scans the devices in the surrounding space and detects the centralized controllers to be configured in the space around the mobile terminal. There may be multiple centralized controllers to be configured in the surrounding space; after the mobile terminal detects the centralized controller to be configured, it updates the centralized controller to be configured to the list of centralized controllers to be configured, and displays the list of centralized controllers through the display screen of the mobile terminal, so that the user can select a centralized controller from the multiple centralized controllers in the list of centralized controllers to be configured for network configuration. In the case where the user selects a centralized controller from the multiple centralized controllers in the list of centralized controllers to be configured, the mobile terminal broadcasts a first broadcast guidance instruction to the multiple centralized controllers in the list of centralized controllers to be configured.
[0066] When the control device of the central controller detects that the central controller and the mobile terminal have entered the network configuration mode, it waits for the mobile terminal to scan the central controller and receive related instructions, and then receives a first broadcast guidance instruction from the mobile terminal. The first broadcast guidance instruction includes the physical address of the central controller selected from the list of central controllers to be configured, which is also called the MAC (Media Access Control) address.
[0067] SA2: When it is determined that the pre-stored physical address is consistent with the physical address in the first broadcast guidance instruction, the centralized controller is controlled to issue a prompt.
[0068] After receiving the first broadcast guidance instruction from the mobile terminal, the controller of the centralized controller determines whether the physical address pre-stored in its own memory is consistent with the physical address in the first broadcast guidance instruction. If it is determined that the pre-stored physical address is inconsistent with the physical address in the first broadcast guidance instruction, the controller of the centralized controller determines that the controller itself is not the target controller selected by the user and does not respond, that is, the centralized controller does not issue a prompt. Verifying that the pre-stored physical address is consistent with the physical address in the instruction avoids misidentification of broadcast instructions from other devices, ensures that the instruction only acts on the designated centralized controller, and improves the reliability of the guidance operation.
[0069] When it is determined that the pre-stored physical address is consistent with the physical address in the first broadcast guidance instruction, the controller of the centralized controller determines that the controller itself is the target controller selected by the user, and then controls the centralized controller to issue a prompt, such as a light prompt, to prompt the user that the centralized controller is the centralized controller selected for the distribution network.
[0070] In this embodiment, when the central controller and the mobile terminal enter the network configuration mode, a list of central controllers to be configured is displayed on the mobile terminal, and the list of central controllers includes multiple central controllers to be configured. The user selects a central controller from the list of central controllers to be configured displayed on the mobile terminal, and sends a first broadcast guidance instruction through the mobile terminal. The central controller receives the first broadcast guidance instruction, and when it is determined that the pre-stored physical address is consistent with the physical address in the received first broadcast guidance instruction, it determines that the central controller itself is the target central controller and issues a prompt, so that the user can quickly find the target central controller in the space according to the prompt of the central controller, quickly determine whether the central controller selected by the user in the mobile terminal is the central controller to be configured, and quickly adjust when the central controller selection is wrong, thereby reducing the situation where the central controller configuration error is difficult to find, improving the accuracy of the network configuration, and improving the network configuration efficiency of the central controller.
[0071] In one embodiment, the first broadcast guidance instruction further includes a guidance flag. In step SA2, when the controller determines that the pre-stored physical address is consistent with the physical address in the first broadcast guidance instruction, the controller controls the centralized controller to issue a prompt, and is configured to execute the following steps:
[0072] SA21: When it is determined that the pre-stored physical address is consistent with the physical address in the first broadcast guidance instruction and the guidance flag in the first broadcast guidance instruction is set, the centralized controller is controlled to issue a corresponding prompt according to the guidance flag.
[0073] After receiving the first broadcast guidance instruction sent by the mobile terminal, the controller of the centralized controller determines whether the pre-stored physical address is consistent with the physical address in the first broadcast guidance instruction, and determines whether the guidance flag in the first broadcast guidance instruction is set; when it is determined that the pre-stored physical address is consistent with the physical address in the first broadcast guidance instruction, and the guidance flag in the first broadcast guidance instruction is set, the controller of the centralized controller controls the centralized controller to issue a corresponding light prompt according to the guidance flag.
[0074] When it is determined that the pre-stored physical address is inconsistent with the physical address in the first broadcast guidance instruction, the centralized controller does not make a corresponding prompt; when it is determined that the guidance flag in the first broadcast guidance instruction is not set, the centralized controller does not make a corresponding prompt.
[0075] For example, if the guidance flag in the first broadcast guidance instruction is 1, it is determined that the guidance flag in the first broadcast guidance instruction is set. When it is determined that the pre-stored physical address is consistent with the physical address in the first broadcast guidance instruction and the guidance flag in the first broadcast guidance instruction is set, the controller of the centralized controller controls the centralized controller to issue a corresponding light prompt according to the guidance flag, such as the light flashing at a certain frequency; if the guidance flag in the first broadcast guidance instruction is 2 or a null value, it is determined that the guidance flag in the first broadcast guidance instruction is not set. When it is determined that the pre-stored physical address is consistent with the physical address in the first broadcast guidance instruction and the guidance flag in the first broadcast guidance instruction is not set, the centralized controller does not give a prompt.
[0076] In this embodiment, after receiving the first broadcast guidance instruction sent by the mobile terminal, when it is determined that the pre-stored physical address is consistent with the physical address in the first broadcast guidance instruction and the guidance flag in the first broadcast guidance instruction is set, the centralized controller is controlled to issue a corresponding prompt according to the guidance flag; this scheme performs double verification logic of the address and the flag bit, which can avoid false triggering caused by environmental interference or multi-device broadcasting, and only responds to instructions with address matching and guidance flag set, effectively shielding irrelevant broadcasts or malicious instructions, and improving the security of the distribution network.
[0077] In one embodiment, the guidance sign in the first broadcast guidance instruction includes at least one of a light guidance sign and a sound guidance sign. In step SA21, the controller controls the centralized controller to issue a corresponding prompt according to the guidance sign, and is configured to perform the following steps:
[0078] SA211: When it is determined that the light guidance flag in the first broadcast guidance instruction is set, the centralized controller is controlled to issue a light prompt.
[0079] In this embodiment, the guidance flag in the first broadcast guidance instruction may include a light guidance flag. When it is determined that the pre-stored physical address is consistent with the physical address in the first broadcast guidance instruction, and the light guidance flag in the first broadcast guidance instruction is set (e.g., the light guidance flag is set to 1), the controller controls the centralized controller to emit a light prompt to remind the user of the spatial location of the target centralized controller, thereby facilitating the user to quickly find the target centralized controller. For example, the light prompt may include flashing an indicator light and / or a flashing screen on the centralized controller.
[0080] When it is determined that the light guidance flag in the first broadcast guidance instruction is not set (for example, the light guidance flag is set = 2 or is a null value), the centralized controller does not issue a light prompt.
[0081] SA212: When it is determined that the voice guidance flag in the first broadcast guidance instruction is set, the centralized controller is controlled to issue a voice prompt.
[0082] In this embodiment, the guidance flag in the first broadcast guidance instruction may also include a voice guidance flag. When it is determined that the pre-stored physical address is consistent with the physical address in the first broadcast guidance instruction, and the voice guidance flag in the first broadcast guidance instruction is set (e.g., the voice guidance flag is set to 1), the controller controls the centralized controller to issue a voice prompt to remind the user of the spatial location of the target centralized controller, thereby facilitating the user to quickly find the target centralized controller. For example, the voice prompt may be a buzzer that controls the centralized controller to emit a sound, or a voice prompt that controls the voice module of the centralized controller to send a voice prompt.
[0083] When it is determined that the sound guidance flag in the first broadcast guidance instruction is not set (eg, the sound guidance flag is set = 2 or is a null value), the central controller does not issue a sound prompt.
[0084] Among them, the guidance marks in the first broadcast guidance instruction include a light guidance mark and a sound guidance mark. When it is determined that the pre-stored physical address is consistent with the physical address in the first broadcast guidance instruction, the light guidance mark in the first broadcast guidance instruction is set, and the sound guidance mark in the first broadcast guidance instruction is set, the controller controls the centralized controller to issue light prompts and sound prompts.
[0085] When it is determined that the pre-stored physical address is consistent with the physical address in the first broadcast guidance instruction, the light guidance flag in the first broadcast guidance instruction is set, but the sound guidance flag in the first broadcast guidance instruction is not set, the controller controls the centralized controller to issue a light prompt, and the centralized controller does not issue a sound prompt.
[0086] When it is determined that the pre-stored physical address is consistent with the physical address in the first broadcast guidance instruction, the light guidance flag in the first broadcast guidance instruction is not set, but the sound guidance flag in the first broadcast guidance instruction is set, the controller controls the centralized controller to issue a sound prompt, and the centralized controller does not issue a light prompt.
[0087] In this embodiment, when it is determined that the pre-stored physical address is consistent with the physical address in the first broadcast guidance instruction, and when it is determined that the light guidance flag in the first broadcast guidance instruction is set, the control unit is controlled to issue a light prompt; when it is determined that the pre-stored physical address is consistent with the physical address in the first broadcast guidance instruction, and when it is determined that the sound guidance flag in the first broadcast guidance instruction is set, the control unit is controlled to issue a sound prompt; through light prompts and sound prompts to users, the spatial position of the user's target controller can be quickly and conspicuously identified, which facilitates the user to quickly find the target controller and improves the distribution network efficiency.
[0088] In one embodiment, as shown in FIG5 , in step SA2, that is, after the controller controls the centralized controller to issue a prompt, the controller is further configured to execute the following steps:
[0089] SA3: Send a first response instruction to the mobile terminal. The first response instruction is used to trigger the mobile terminal to display a light prompt on the interface area where the central controller selected in the list of central controllers to be configured is located.
[0090] After the controller controls the centralized controller to issue a prompt, it may also issue a first response instruction to the mobile terminal. The first response instruction is used to trigger the mobile terminal to display a light prompt in the interface area where the centralized controller selected in the list of centralized controllers to be configured is located. That is, after receiving the first response instruction, the mobile terminal responds to the first response instruction by displaying a light prompt in the interface area where the centralized controller selected in the list of centralized controllers to be configured is located, thereby notifying the user of the location of the selected centralized controller on the mobile terminal interface.
[0091] The mobile terminal displays a light prompt in the interface area where the selected centralized controller is located in the list of centralized controllers to be distributed. This light prompt can be consistent with the light prompt of the centralized controller. For example, the controller controls the centralized controller to issue a prompt by flashing its lights at a certain frequency. Correspondingly, the mobile terminal can flash its lights in the interface area where the selected centralized controller is located at the same flashing frequency as the centralized controller. The two echo each other, making it easier for users to intuitively match the centralized controller device with the selected centralized controller on the interface and quickly determine the selected target centralized controller in space.
[0092] In this embodiment, after the controller controls the centralized controller to issue a prompt, it can also issue a first response instruction to the mobile terminal. The first response instruction is used to trigger the mobile terminal to provide a light prompt for the interface area where the centralized controller selected in the list of centralized controllers to be configured is located, so as to prompt the user of the interface location of the selected centralized controller of the mobile terminal, so that the user can intuitively see the selected centralized controller and avoid the user from mistakenly selecting the wrong centralized controller.
[0093] In one embodiment, in step SA2, that is, after the controller controls the centralized controller to issue a prompt, the controller is further configured to perform the following steps:
[0094] SA30: Send a first response instruction to the mobile terminal; the first response instruction includes the physical address of the centralized controller. The first response instruction is used to trigger the mobile terminal to match the physical address in the first response instruction with the physical address of the centralized controller in the list of centralized controllers to be configured, and control the interface area where the matched centralized controller is located to provide a light prompt.
[0095] After the controller controls the centralized controller to issue a prompt, it can also issue a first response instruction to the mobile terminal; the first response instruction includes the physical address of the centralized controller, and the first response instruction is used to trigger the mobile terminal to match the physical address in the first response instruction with the physical address of the centralized controller in the list of centralized controllers to be configured, and control the interface area where the matched centralized controller is located to provide a light prompt.
[0096] That is, the mobile terminal receives the first response instruction, and matches the physical address (such as MAC address) in the first response instruction with the physical address of the controller in the list of controllers to be configured to determine the matching controller; then controls the interface area where the matched controller is located to provide a lighting prompt, so that the user can easily detect whether the controller selected in the list is the target controller he wants to configure.
[0097] In this embodiment, after the controller instructs the centralized controller to issue a prompt, it issues a first response instruction to the mobile terminal. The first response instruction includes the physical address of the centralized controller. The first response instruction is used to trigger the mobile terminal to match the physical address in the first response instruction with the physical address of the centralized controllers in the list of centralized controllers to be networked, and then control the interface area where the matched centralized controller is located to display a light prompt. The mobile terminal can determine the selected centralized controller in the list of centralized controllers based on the physical address of the centralized controller and then control the interface area where the centralized controller is located to display a light prompt, thereby avoiding false triggering of the prompt and improving the accuracy of the light prompt.
[0098] In one embodiment, in step SA2, when the controller determines that the pre-stored physical address is consistent with the physical address in the first broadcast guidance instruction, the controller controls the centralized controller to issue a prompt, and is configured to execute the following steps:
[0099] SA201: When the physical address in the first broadcast guidance instruction is the physical address of the selected centralized controller, if the pre-stored physical address of the centralized controller itself is consistent with the physical address in the first broadcast guidance instruction, the centralized controller is controlled to issue a prompt.
[0100] In this embodiment, the physical address in the first broadcast guidance instruction is determined based on the network configuration mode of the central controller and the mobile terminal. Different network configuration modes result in different physical addresses in the first broadcast guidance instruction. The central controller and mobile terminal can choose to configure the network in either Bluetooth or Soft Access Point (SoftAP) configuration mode. This allows for both central controllers communicating via Bluetooth and SoftAP, providing flexibility and wide application.
[0101] Among them, when the network configuration mode between the central controller and the mobile terminal is the software access point network configuration mode, that is, the mobile terminal and the central controller are networked through the software access point, the physical address in the first broadcast guidance instruction sent by the mobile terminal is the physical address of the selected central controller (also called MAC address).
[0102] After receiving the first broadcast guidance instruction, the controller of the centralized controller determines whether the pre-stored physical address of the centralized controller itself is consistent with the physical address in the first broadcast guidance instruction if the physical address in the first broadcast guidance instruction is the physical address of the selected centralized controller. If the controller determines that the pre-stored physical address of the centralized controller itself in the memory is consistent with the physical address in the first broadcast guidance instruction, the controller controls the centralized controller to issue a prompt, such as controlling an indicator light of the centralized controller to flash, so that the user can quickly determine the location of the centralized controller in the space according to the prompt.
[0103] SA202: When the physical address in the first broadcast guidance instruction is the Bluetooth physical address of the selected central controller, if the pre-stored Bluetooth physical address of the central controller is consistent with the Bluetooth physical address in the first broadcast guidance instruction, control the central controller to issue a prompt.
[0104] When the network configuration mode between the central controller and the mobile terminal is Bluetooth, that is, the mobile terminal and the central controller are connected via Bluetooth, the physical address in the first broadcast guidance instruction sent by the mobile terminal is the Bluetooth physical address of the selected central controller. The Bluetooth physical address refers to the physical address (also known as the MAC address) of the Bluetooth module in the central controller.
[0105] After receiving the first broadcast guidance instruction, when the physical address in the first broadcast guidance instruction is the Bluetooth physical address of the selected central controller, if the pre-stored Bluetooth physical address of the central controller is consistent with the Bluetooth physical address in the first broadcast guidance instruction, the controller of the central controller is controlled to issue a prompt, such as controlling the indicator light of the central controller to flash, so that the user can quickly determine the location of the central controller in the space according to the prompt.
[0106] In this embodiment, if the physical address in the first broadcast guidance instruction is the physical address of the selected centralized controller, if the pre-stored physical address of the centralized controller itself is consistent with the physical address in the first broadcast guidance instruction, the centralized controller is controlled to issue a prompt; if the physical address in the first broadcast guidance instruction is the Bluetooth physical address of the selected centralized controller, if the pre-stored Bluetooth physical address of the centralized controller is consistent with the Bluetooth physical address in the first broadcast guidance instruction, the centralized controller is controlled to issue a prompt. The physical address in the first broadcast guidance instruction is determined according to the network configuration mode, so that the controller performs address matching operations according to different network configuration modes and different physical addresses in the instruction, adapting to different network configuration modes with high accuracy.
[0107] In some embodiments, as shown in FIG6 , a centralized controller network configuration method may also be provided. This method is described by taking the controller of the centralized controller in FIG1 as an example. The controller is configured to perform the following steps:
[0108] SB1: When it is detected that the centralized controller enters the network configuration mode, after detecting the guidance operation on the centralized controller, a second broadcast guidance instruction is sent. The second broadcast guidance instruction is used to trigger the mobile terminal to match the physical address in the second broadcast guidance instruction with the address of the centralized controller in the list of centralized controllers to be configured, and control the interface area where the matched centralized controller is located to provide a lighting prompt.
[0109] The central controller can automatically enter the network configuration mode after powering on. The central controller's memory pre-stores the physical address of the central controller itself and the physical address of the Bluetooth module on the central controller, also known as the Bluetooth physical address.
[0110] When the controller of the centralized controller detects that the centralized controller enters the network distribution mode, it detects whether it receives the user's guidance operation on the centralized controller. The guidance operation can be that the guidance button of the centralized controller is pressed or the guidance control on the display interface of the centralized controller is triggered.
[0111] After detecting the user's guidance operation on the controller of the centralized controller, the controller broadcasts a second broadcast guidance instruction. The second broadcast guidance instruction may include the physical address of the centralized controller, and may also include the Bluetooth physical address of the centralized controller.
[0112] The second broadcast guidance instruction is used to trigger the mobile terminal to match the physical address in the second broadcast guidance instruction with the address of the controller in the list of controllers to be configured, and control the interface area where the matched controller is located to provide a light prompt. That is, after receiving the second broadcast guidance instruction, the mobile terminal matches the physical address in the second broadcast guidance instruction with the address of the controller in the list of controllers to be configured; if the matched controller indicates that there is a controller with the same physical address in the list of controllers to be configured, then the interface area where the matched controller is located is controlled to provide a light prompt. If the controller is not matched, it indicates that there is no controller with the same physical address in the list of controllers to be configured, and the mobile terminal's list of controllers to be configured will not provide a light prompt.
[0113] For example, controlling the interface area where the matched centralized controller is located to provide a lighting prompt may be controlling the interface area where the centralized controller is located to have a brighter brightness than other areas in the list of centralized controllers to be configured, or controlling the interface area where the centralized controller is located to flash.
[0114] The list of centralized controllers to be networked includes multiple centralized controllers, which are arranged in order. The list includes basic information about each centralized controller (such as the name and device number of the centralized controller). The basic information of the centralized controller can be displayed in the form of page cards, such as margin cards, floating cards, and full-width cards.
[0115] The mobile terminal controls the interface area where the matched central controller is located to provide a light prompt, that is, the page card of the matched central controller in the central controller list of the mobile terminal can be controlled to flash, so that the user can intuitively determine the target central controller and select it for network configuration.
[0116] In other embodiments, the controller list includes basic information of each controller and can also be displayed in other ways. For example, in the controller list, multiple controllers are displayed in a table without frames, and each column of the table is the basic information of a controller.
[0117] In this embodiment, when it is detected that the central controller has entered the network configuration mode, after detecting the guidance operation on the central controller, a second broadcast guidance instruction is sent to the mobile terminal. The second broadcast guidance instruction is used to trigger the mobile terminal to match the physical address in the second broadcast guidance instruction with the address of the central controller in the list of central controllers to be configured, and control the interface area where the matched central controller is located to provide a lighting prompt. In this way, when the user has a clear network configuration target, the target central controller can be prompted in the central controller list of the mobile terminal to prompt the user to quickly find the corresponding central controller in the list of central controllers to be configured for network configuration. This solves the technical problem in the related art of being unable to quickly find the corresponding central controller on the mobile terminal display interface, and improves the network configuration effect.
[0118] In one embodiment, the controller is further configured to, upon detecting a guidance operation on the centralized controller, control the centralized controller to provide at least one of a light and sound prompt. Specifically, upon detecting that the centralized controller has entered network configuration mode, upon detecting a guidance operation on the centralized controller, the controller sends a second broadcast guidance instruction. The controller is configured to perform the following steps: upon detecting that the centralized controller has entered network configuration mode, upon detecting a guidance operation on the centralized controller, the controller sends the second broadcast guidance instruction and controls the centralized controller to provide a light prompt, such as flashing a screen or indicator light on the centralized controller, so as to provide a user with an intuitive reminder through the centralized controller's light.
[0119] In other embodiments, the controller can also be configured to perform the following steps: when the controller of the centralized controller detects that the centralized controller enters the network distribution mode, after detecting the guidance operation on the centralized controller, the controller sends a second broadcast guidance instruction, and controls the centralized controller to provide a sound prompt, such as controlling the buzzer of the centralized controller to send a sound, so as to remind the user through the sound of the centralized controller, giving the user an intuitive feeling.
[0120] In other embodiments, the controller can also be configured to perform the following steps: when the controller of the centralized controller detects that the centralized controller enters the network distribution mode, after detecting the guidance operation on the centralized controller, the controller sends a second broadcast guidance instruction, and controls the centralized controller to provide light prompts and sound prompts, such as controlling the screen or indicator light of the centralized controller to flash, and controlling the buzzer of the centralized controller to send sound, so as to remind the user through the sound and light of the centralized controller, giving the user an intuitive feeling.
[0121] In some embodiments, as shown in FIG7 , a centralized controller network configuration method may be provided, wherein the controller is configured to perform the following steps:
[0122] SB1: When it is detected that the centralized controller enters the network distribution mode and a guidance operation on the centralized controller is detected, a second broadcast guidance instruction is sent.
[0123] After detecting a user's guidance operation, the controller of the centralized controller broadcasts a second broadcast guidance instruction. Upon receiving the second broadcast guidance instruction, the mobile terminal matches the physical address in the second broadcast guidance instruction with the address of a centralized controller in the list of centralized controllers to be configured. If a matching centralized controller is found, indicating that a centralized controller with the same physical address exists in the list of centralized controllers to be configured, the mobile terminal controls the interface area where the matched centralized controller is located to display a lighting prompt.
[0124] In addition, if a central controller is matched, the mobile terminal may further send a second response instruction to the central controller, wherein the second response instruction is used to trigger the central controller to send a prompt, such as triggering the central controller to send at least one of a light prompt and a sound prompt.
[0125] SB2: After sending the second broadcast guidance instruction, upon receiving the second response instruction sent by the mobile terminal, control the central controller to issue a prompt in response to the second response instruction.
[0126] After sending the second broadcast guidance instruction, the controller of the centralized controller can determine whether it has received the second response instruction sent by the mobile terminal. If the second response instruction sent by the mobile terminal is received, the controller can respond to the second response instruction to control the centralized controller to issue a prompt, such as controlling the centralized controller to provide at least one of a light prompt and a sound prompt.
[0127] In this embodiment, when it is detected that the centralized controller enters the network configuration mode, after detecting the guidance operation on the centralized controller, the controller sends a second broadcast guidance instruction, and after sending the second broadcast guidance instruction, when it receives a second response instruction sent by the mobile terminal, it responds to the second response instruction to control the centralized controller to issue a prompt to prompt the user that the guidance operation is successful and the network configuration can be performed, thereby improving the accuracy and efficiency of the network configuration.
[0128] In one embodiment, in step SB1, i.e., the controller sends the second broadcast guidance instruction, the controller is configured to perform the following steps:
[0129] SB11: When the network configuration mode is the Bluetooth network configuration mode, a second broadcast guidance instruction is sent, and the physical address in the second broadcast guidance instruction is the Bluetooth physical address of the central controller.
[0130] When the network configuration mode is Bluetooth configuration mode, that is, when the central controller and the mobile terminal are configured to connect to the network via the Bluetooth module, upon detecting a guidance operation on the central controller, the controller sends a second broadcast guidance instruction. The physical address in the second broadcast guidance instruction is the Bluetooth physical address of the central controller. This Bluetooth physical address is the physical address (also known as the MAC address) of the Bluetooth module in the central controller.
[0131] Among them, after receiving the second broadcast guidance instruction, the mobile terminal matches the Bluetooth physical address in the second broadcast guidance instruction with the Bluetooth physical address of the controller in the list of controllers to be configured; if the matched controller indicates that there is a controller with the same Bluetooth physical address in the list of controllers to be configured, the interface area where the matched controller is located is controlled to provide a light prompt.
[0132] SB12: When the network configuration mode is the software access point network configuration mode, a second broadcast guidance instruction is sent, and the physical address in the second broadcast guidance instruction is the physical address of the central controller itself.
[0133] When the network configuration mode is the software access point (also known as Softap) network configuration mode, that is, when the centralized controller and the mobile terminal are networked through Softap, after detecting the guidance operation on the centralized controller, the controller sends a second broadcast guidance instruction. The physical address in the second broadcast guidance instruction is the physical address of the centralized controller itself.
[0134] After receiving the second broadcast guidance instruction, the mobile terminal matches the physical address of the central controller itself in the second broadcast guidance instruction with the physical address of the central controller in the list of central controllers to be configured; if the matched central controller indicates that there is a central controller with the same Bluetooth physical address in the list of central controllers to be configured, the interface area where the matched central controller is located will be controlled to provide a light prompt.
[0135] In this embodiment, if the network configuration mode is Bluetooth configuration mode, a second broadcast guidance instruction is sent, and the physical address in the second broadcast guidance instruction is the Bluetooth physical address of the central controller. If the network configuration mode is software access point configuration mode, a second broadcast guidance instruction is sent, and the physical address in the second broadcast guidance instruction is the physical address of the central controller itself. The physical address in the first broadcast guidance instruction is determined based on the network configuration mode, so that the mobile terminal performs address matching operations based on different network configuration modes and different physical addresses in the instruction, adapting to different network configuration modes with high accuracy.
[0136] In some embodiments, as shown in FIG8 , a centralized controller network configuration method is provided. This method is described using the control device of the mobile terminal in FIG1 as an example. The control device is configured to perform the following steps:
[0137] S10: When the mobile terminal enters the network configuration mode, the control display screen displays a list of centralized controllers to be configured.
[0138] In this embodiment, the mobile terminal includes a display screen and a control device.
[0139] In actual use, the user can initiate a network configuration search through the relevant application APP page of the mobile terminal, so that the mobile terminal enters the network configuration mode. After entering the network configuration mode, the mobile terminal scans the devices in the surrounding space and detects the centralized controllers to be configured in the space around the mobile terminal. After the mobile terminal detects the centralized controller to be configured, there may be multiple centralized controllers to be configured in the surrounding space. The centralized controller to be configured is updated to the list of centralized controllers to be configured, and the list of centralized controllers to be configured is displayed on the display screen of the mobile terminal, so that the user can select a centralized controller from the multiple centralized controllers in the list of centralized controllers to be configured for network configuration.
[0140] S20: After selecting a centralized controller from a plurality of centralized controllers in the list of centralized controllers to be networked, a first broadcast guidance instruction is sent to the plurality of centralized controllers. The first broadcast guidance instruction is used to trigger the centralized controller to issue a prompt when it determines that the pre-stored physical address is consistent with the physical address in the first broadcast guidance instruction.
[0141] After a user selects a centralized controller from a list of multiple centralized controllers to be networked, the control device of the mobile terminal sends a first broadcast guidance instruction to the multiple centralized controllers. The first broadcast guidance instruction is used to trigger the centralized controller to issue a prompt when it determines that a pre-stored physical address is consistent with the physical address in the first broadcast guidance instruction.
[0142] That is, after receiving the first broadcast guidance instruction, the centralized controller determines whether the physical address pre-stored in the centralized controller is consistent with the physical address in the first broadcast guidance instruction; if it is determined that the pre-stored physical address is consistent with the physical address in the first broadcast guidance instruction, a prompt is issued, which can be at least one of a light prompt and a sound prompt.
[0143] In this embodiment, when the mobile terminal enters the network configuration mode, the control display screen displays a list of centralized controllers to be configured; after selecting a centralized controller from multiple centralized controllers in the list of centralized controllers to be configured, a first broadcast guidance instruction is sent to the multiple centralized controllers. The first broadcast guidance instruction is used to trigger the centralized controller to issue a prompt when it determines that the pre-stored physical address is consistent with the physical address in the first broadcast guidance instruction. This solution allows users to quickly find the target centralized controller in the space based on the prompt of the centralized controller, quickly determine whether the centralized controller selected by the mobile terminal is the centralized controller they need to configure, and quickly adjust the centralized controller when the centralized controller selection is incorrect, thereby reducing the difficulty of discovering the network configuration errors of the centralized controller, improving the accuracy of network configuration, and improving the efficiency of network configuration of the centralized controller.
[0144] In some embodiments, a centralized controller network configuration method is provided, and the control device may be further configured to perform the following steps:
[0145] S01: Receive a second broadcast guidance instruction sent by the central controller.
[0146] When the centralized controller enters the network distribution mode, the centralized controller broadcasts a second broadcast guidance instruction after detecting a user's guidance operation on the centralized controller. The control device of the mobile terminal receives the second broadcast guidance instruction sent by the centralized controller.
[0147] S02: Match the physical address in the second broadcast guidance instruction with the address of the centralized controller in the list of centralized controllers to be networked, and control the interface area where the matched centralized controller is located to provide a light prompt.
[0148] After receiving the second broadcast guidance instruction from the central controller, the control device of the mobile terminal matches the physical address in the second broadcast guidance instruction with the address of the central controller in the list of central controllers to be configured. If a match is found with a central controller in the list of central controllers, the control device of the mobile terminal controls the interface area where the matched central controller is located to display a light prompt. If no match is found with a central controller, the mobile terminal's list of central controllers to be configured does not display a light prompt.
[0149] In this embodiment, the mobile terminal receives the second broadcast guidance instruction sent by the central controller, matches the physical address in the second broadcast guidance instruction with the address of the central controller in the list of central controllers to be configured, and controls the interface area where the matched central controller is located to provide a light prompt. When the user has a clear central controller target for configuration, the target central controller can be prompted in the central controller list of the mobile terminal to prompt the user to quickly find the corresponding central controller in the list of central controllers to be configured for configuration. This solves the technical problem in related technologies that the corresponding central controller cannot be quickly found on the display interface of the mobile terminal, thereby improving the configuration effect.
[0150] In some embodiments, a centralized controller network configuration system is provided, as shown in FIG1 , and includes a mobile terminal and a centralized controller. In network configuration mode, the mobile terminal displays a list of centralized controllers to be configured, selects a centralized controller from the list, and then sends a first broadcast guidance instruction, which includes the MAC address of the selected centralized controller.
[0151] The centralized controller receives the first broadcast guidance instruction in the network distribution mode and determines whether the pre-stored MAC address is consistent with the MAC address in the received first broadcast guidance instruction; if they are consistent, the centralized controller is the target centralized controller and issues a prompt.
[0152] The centralized controller automatically enters the network distribution mode after power-on.
[0153] After entering network configuration mode, the mobile terminal scans for devices in the surrounding area. Multiple centralized controllers may be available for configuration. The mobile terminal displays the search results, which are a list of the centralized controllers to be configured. A centralized controller is selected from the list as the target centralized controller. The mobile terminal then sends a first broadcast guidance instruction, which includes the MAC address of the selected centralized controller (also known as the target centralized controller).
[0154] The central controller has pre-stored MAC addresses, including the MAC address of the central controller itself and / or the MAC address of the Bluetooth module of the central controller (ie, the Bluetooth MAC address).
[0155] The centralized controller determines whether the pre-stored MAC address is consistent with the MAC address in the received first broadcast guidance instruction.
[0156] If the MAC address pre-stored in the centralized controller is inconsistent with the MAC address in the received first broadcast guidance instruction, the centralized controller does not issue a prompt.
[0157] If the MAC address pre-stored in the centralized controller is consistent with the MAC address in the received first broadcast guidance instruction, then the centralized controller is the target centralized controller, and the centralized controller issues a prompt to the user, so that the user can quickly find the target centralized controller in the space.
[0158] The centralized controller distribution network system of this embodiment performs the following steps, as shown in FIG9 .
[0159] Step S11: The mobile terminal is in the network configuration mode, displays a list of centralized controllers to be configured, selects a centralized controller from the list, and sends a first broadcast guidance instruction.
[0160] Step S12: The centralized controller receives a first broadcast guidance instruction in the network distribution mode.
[0161] Step S13: The central controller determines whether the pre-stored MAC address is consistent with the MAC address in the received first broadcast guidance instruction.
[0162] If they are inconsistent, step S14 is executed: the centralized controller is not the target centralized controller, and no prompt is issued.
[0163] If they are consistent, step S15 is executed: the centralized controller is determined to be the target centralized controller, and a prompt is issued.
[0164] The centralized controller network distribution system of this embodiment is designed to display a list of centralized controllers to be networked in the network distribution mode on the mobile terminal. After selecting a centralized controller from the list of centralized controllers, a first broadcast guidance instruction is sent, and the first broadcast guidance instruction includes the MAC address of the selected centralized controller; the centralized controller receives the first broadcast guidance instruction in the network distribution mode, and determines whether the pre-stored MAC address is consistent with the MAC address in the received first broadcast guidance instruction; if they are consistent, the centralized controller is the target centralized controller, and a prompt is issued to prompt the user, so that the user can quickly find the target centralized controller in the space, which solves the technical problem in the related technology that the target centralized controller in the space cannot be quickly found, and can quickly find the target device, improve the network distribution efficiency, and enhance the user experience.
[0165] In some embodiments of the present application, the first broadcast guidance instruction also includes a guidance flag; the centralized controller sets the guidance flag, that is, the guidance flag = 1.
[0166] After determining that it is the target centralized controller, the centralized controller determines whether the guidance flag in the received first broadcast guidance instruction is set. If the guidance flag is set, it issues a corresponding prompt according to the guidance flag to help the user quickly find the target centralized controller.
[0167] In some embodiments of the present application, the guidance sign in the first broadcast guidance instruction includes a light guidance sign and / or a sound guidance sign.
[0168] When the central controller determines that the light guide mark is set, it will emit a light prompt to remind the user of the spatial location of the target central controller, so that the user can quickly find the target central controller. For example, the indicator light and / or screen of the target central controller will flash.
[0169] When the central controller determines that the sound guidance mark is set, it issues a sound prompt to remind the user of the spatial location of the target central controller, so that the user can quickly find the target central controller. For example, the buzzer of the target central controller sounds.
[0170] In some embodiments of the present application, it is possible to first determine whether the light guidance mark is set, and then determine whether the sound guidance mark is set. In some embodiments of the present application, the centralized controller issues a prompt, which specifically includes the following steps, as shown in FIG10 .
[0171] Step S21: Determine whether the light guidance flag is set.
[0172] If not, then step S22 is executed: the centralized controller does not issue a light prompt, and then step S24 is executed.
[0173] If yes, then step S23 is executed: the centralized controller issues a light prompt, and then step S24 is executed.
[0174] Step S24: Determine whether the sound guidance flag is set.
[0175] If not, step S25 is executed: the centralized controller does not issue a sound prompt.
[0176] If yes, step S26 is executed: the centralized controller issues a sound prompt.
[0177] In some other embodiments of the present application, it is possible to first determine whether the sound guidance flag is set, and then determine whether the light guidance flag is set. In some other embodiments of the present application, the centralized controller issues a prompt, which specifically includes the following steps, as shown in FIG11 .
[0178] Step S31: Determine whether the sound guidance flag is set.
[0179] If not, then step S32 is executed: the centralized controller does not issue a sound prompt, and then step S34 is executed.
[0180] If yes, then step S33 is executed: the centralized controller issues a sound prompt, and then step S34 is executed.
[0181] Step S34: Determine whether the light guidance flag is set.
[0182] If not, step S35 is executed: the centralized controller does not issue a light prompt.
[0183] If yes, step S36 is executed: the centralized controller issues a light prompt.
[0184] In some embodiments of the present application, the centralized controller is further configured to issue a first response instruction when determining that it is the target centralized controller.
[0185] The mobile terminal is further configured to provide a light prompt on the interface area where the selected centralized controller is located in the list of centralized controllers to be configured when receiving the first response instruction, so as to remind the user of the interface location of the selected centralized controller.
[0186] When the centralized controller determines that it is the target centralized controller, it issues a first response instruction. After receiving the first response instruction, the mobile terminal illuminates the interface area where the centralized controller selected in the centralized controller list (i.e., the target centralized controller) is located to remind the user of the interface location of the target centralized controller, making it easier for the user to check whether the centralized controller selected in the list is the target centralized controller.
[0187] For example, in the list of centralized controllers to be configured, the interface area where the selected centralized controller is located is brighter than other areas, or the interface area where the selected centralized controller is located is flashing.
[0188] For example, each centralized controller in the centralized controller list is displayed in the form of a card. When the first response instruction is received, the card of the selected centralized controller flashes.
[0189] The centralized controller distribution network system of this embodiment performs the following steps, as shown in FIG12 .
[0190] Step S41: When the centralized controller determines that it is the target centralized controller, it issues a first response instruction.
[0191] Step S42: upon receiving the first response instruction, the mobile terminal controls the interface area where the centralized controller selected in the list of centralized controllers to be networked is located to provide a light prompt, so as to remind the user of the interface location of the selected centralized controller.
[0192] In some further embodiments of the present application, the centralized controller is further configured to issue a first response instruction when determining that it is the target centralized controller; the first response instruction includes the MAC address of the centralized controller.
[0193] The mobile terminal is also used to, when receiving the first response instruction, find the controller whose MAC address is consistent with the MAC address in the first response instruction in the list of controllers to be configured, and control the interface area where the controller is located to provide a light prompt to remind the user of the interface location of the target controller, so as to facilitate the user to detect whether the controller selected in the list is the target controller.
[0194] That is, by including the MAC address in the first response instruction, the mobile terminal further determines the target centralized controller in the centralized controller list, and then controls the interface area where the centralized controller is located to provide a light prompt, thereby improving accuracy.
[0195] For example, the interface area where the centralized controller is located flashes to prompt the user, or the centralized controller card flashes.
[0196] The centralized controller distribution network system of this embodiment performs the following process, as shown in FIG13 .
[0197] Step S51: When the centralized controller determines that it is the target centralized controller, it issues a first response instruction. The first response instruction includes the MAC address of the centralized controller, such as the MAC address of the centralized controller itself or the MAC address of the Bluetooth module of the centralized controller (i.e., the Bluetooth MAC address).
[0198] Step S52: When the mobile terminal receives the first response instruction, it finds the controller whose MAC address is consistent with the MAC address in the first response instruction in the list of controllers to be configured, and controls the interface area where the controller is located to provide a light prompt to remind the user of the interface location of the target controller.
[0199] Because some centralized controllers communicate with other devices via Bluetooth, and others via SoftAP, network configuration modes include Bluetooth and SoftAP. Mobile terminals can select either mode.
[0200] In Bluetooth network configuration mode, the mobile terminal and the central controller are connected via Bluetooth.
[0201] In the SoftAP network configuration mode, the mobile terminal and the centralized controller are connected via SoftAP.
[0202] When the network configuration mode selected by the mobile terminal is the Bluetooth network configuration mode, the MAC address in the first broadcast guidance instruction is the Bluetooth MAC address of the selected central controller, that is, the MAC address of the Bluetooth module of the central controller.
[0203] When the network configuration mode selected by the mobile terminal is the Softap network configuration mode, the MAC address in the first broadcast guidance instruction is the MAC address of the selected central controller itself.
[0204] The mobile terminal can choose either Bluetooth network configuration mode or SoftAP network configuration mode. It can configure the network for the centralized controller via Bluetooth communication or the centralized controller via SoftAP communication. It is flexible and convenient to use and has a wide range of applications.
[0205] In the Bluetooth network configuration mode, the MAC address in the first response instruction is the MAC address of the Bluetooth module of the central controller (ie, the Bluetooth MAC address).
[0206] In Softap network configuration mode, the MAC address in the first response instruction is the MAC address of the centralized controller itself.
[0207] In some other embodiments of the present application, the mobile terminal communicates with the centralized controller through a cloud server.
[0208] The mobile terminal sends a first broadcast guidance instruction, the cloud server receives the first broadcast guidance instruction, and sends the received first broadcast guidance instruction to the centralized controller. The centralized controller receives the first broadcast guidance instruction sent by the cloud server.
[0209] The central controller sends a first response instruction, the cloud server receives the first response instruction, and sends the received first response instruction to the mobile terminal. The mobile terminal receives the first response instruction sent by the cloud server.
[0210] Next, the network distribution process of the centralized controller distribution system will be described in detail with reference to FIG14 .
[0211] Step S61: The centralized controller is powered on and automatically enters the network distribution mode.
[0212] The centralized controller using Bluetooth communication automatically enters Bluetooth network configuration mode after power-on.
[0213] The centralized controller using Softap communication automatically enters Softap network distribution mode after power-on.
[0214] Step S62: The mobile terminal selects to enter the Bluetooth network configuration mode or the SoftAP network configuration mode, scans the Bluetooth devices or SoftAP devices in the surrounding space, and displays the searched centralized controllers to be configured in a list.
[0215] Step S63: Select the centralized controller to be configured in the list of centralized controllers to be configured, and use the selected centralized controller as the target centralized controller.
[0216] Each centralized controller in the centralized controller list is displayed in the form of a card. Click the "Guide" icon in the selected centralized controller card, and the mobile terminal sends a first broadcast guidance instruction to the Bluetooth channel or Softap channel.
[0217] The first broadcast guidance instruction includes the MAC address of the selected central controller and a guidance flag, and the guidance flag is set.
[0218] Step S64: After receiving the first broadcast guidance instruction, the centralized controller determines whether the pre-stored MAC address is consistent with the MAC address in the received first broadcast guidance instruction.
[0219] If the MAC address pre-stored in the centralized controller is inconsistent with the MAC address in the received first broadcast guidance instruction, step S65 is executed: the centralized controller is not the target centralized controller, and no prompt is issued.
[0220] If the MAC address pre-stored in the centralized controller is consistent with the MAC address in the received first broadcast guidance instruction, step S66 is executed: the centralized controller is determined to be the target centralized controller, and then step S67 is executed.
[0221] Step S67: Determine whether the guidance flag in the received first broadcast guidance instruction is set.
[0222] If the guidance flag is set, step S68 is executed.
[0223] Step S68: The centralized controller flashes the screen and / or the indicator light according to the guidance mark. The centralized controller issues a first response instruction.
[0224] Step S69: When the mobile terminal receives the first response instruction, the card of the target centralized controller flashes at the same frequency.
[0225] The user determines the target device based on the flashing condition and completes the network configuration.
[0226] When a list of centralized controllers to be networked is displayed on the mobile terminal APP and there are multiple centralized controllers in the space, the centralized controller network configuration system of this embodiment can be used to quickly determine the centralized controller in the space corresponding to the centralized controller selected from the list.
[0227] In some other embodiments of the present application, the centralized controller, in the network distribution mode, sends a second broadcast guidance instruction after detecting a guidance operation, and the second broadcast guidance instruction includes the MAC address of the centralized controller.
[0228] The mobile terminal receives the second broadcast guidance instruction in the network configuration mode, and determines whether there is a centralized controller in the list of centralized controllers to be configured with the MAC address consistent with the MAC address in the second broadcast guidance instruction. If so, the interface area where the centralized controller is located is controlled to provide a light prompt.
[0229] Through the above design, the user can be prompted to quickly find the corresponding centralized controller in the list of centralized controllers to be configured, solving the technical problem in the related art of being unable to quickly find the corresponding centralized controller on the mobile terminal display interface.
[0230] The mobile terminal APP displays a list of centralized controllers to be networked. When the user operates one of the centralized controllers in the space, the centralized controller network configuration system of this embodiment can quickly determine the centralized controller in the list corresponding to the centralized controller the user is operating.
[0231] In one embodiment, the centralized controller distribution network system includes a mobile terminal and a centralized controller, etc. The mobile terminal communicates wirelessly with the centralized controller, and the centralized controller controls the operation of the multi-split air conditioner.
[0232] The central controller, in the network distribution mode, sends a second broadcast guidance instruction after detecting the guidance operation, where the second broadcast guidance instruction includes the MAC address of the central controller.
[0233] The mobile terminal receives the second broadcast guidance instruction in the network configuration mode, and determines whether there is a centralized controller in the list of centralized controllers to be configured with the MAC address consistent with the MAC address in the second broadcast guidance instruction. If so, the interface area where the centralized controller is located is controlled to provide a light prompt.
[0234] The central controller automatically enters the network configuration mode after power-on. The central controller has pre-stored MAC addresses, including the central controller's own MAC address and / or the MAC address of the central controller's Bluetooth module (i.e., the Bluetooth MAC address).
[0235] After detecting a guidance operation, such as when a guidance button of the centralized controller is pressed, the centralized controller sends a second broadcast guidance instruction, where the second broadcast guidance instruction includes the MAC address of the centralized controller.
[0236] After the mobile terminal enters the network configuration mode, it scans the surrounding space for devices. There may be multiple centralized controllers to be configured in the surrounding space. The mobile terminal displays the search results and a list of centralized controllers to be configured.
[0237] After the mobile terminal receives the second broadcast guidance instruction, it compares whether there is a controller in the list of controllers to be configured that has the same MAC address as in the second broadcast guidance instruction. If so, it controls the interface area where the controller is located to provide a light prompt to prompt the user, so that the user can quickly find the corresponding controller in the list.
[0238] The centralized controller distribution network system of this embodiment performs the following process, as shown in FIG15 .
[0239] Step S71: The central controller detects a guidance operation in the network configuration mode and sends a second broadcast guidance instruction. The second broadcast guidance instruction includes the MAC address of the central controller, such as the MAC address of the central controller itself or the MAC address of the Bluetooth module of the central controller (i.e., the Bluetooth MAC address).
[0240] Step S72: The mobile terminal is in the network configuration mode, displays a list of central controllers to be configured, and receives a second broadcast guidance instruction.
[0241] Step S73: The mobile terminal determines whether there is a centralized controller in the list of centralized controllers to be networked that has the same MAC address as that in the second broadcast guidance instruction.
[0242] If it exists, execute step S74: control the interface area where the central controller is located to provide light prompts.
[0243] For example, in the list of centralized controllers to be networked, the interface area where the centralized controller is located is brighter than other areas, or the interface area where the centralized controller is located is flashing.
[0244] For example, each controller in the controller list is displayed in card form, and the controller card flashes.
[0245] If it does not exist, step S75 is executed: the mobile terminal's list of centralized controllers to be networked does not provide a light prompt.
[0246] The centralized controller network distribution system of this embodiment is designed to send a second broadcast guidance instruction after detecting a guidance operation in the network distribution mode. The second broadcast guidance instruction includes the MAC address of the centralized controller; the mobile terminal receives the second broadcast guidance instruction in the network distribution mode, and determines whether there is a centralized controller with the same MAC address as the one in the second broadcast guidance instruction in the list of centralized controllers to be networked. If so, the interface area where the centralized controller is located is controlled to provide a lighting prompt to prompt the user, so that the user can quickly find the corresponding centralized controller in the list of centralized controllers to be networked. This solves the technical problem in related technologies that the corresponding centralized controller on the mobile terminal display interface cannot be quickly found, and can quickly find the target device, improve network distribution efficiency, and enhance user experience.
[0247] In some embodiments of the present application, after detecting a guidance operation, the centralized controller performs a light and / or sound prompt to remind the user that the centralized controller is performing a guidance operation.
[0248] In some embodiments of the present application, the centralized controller performs light and / or sound prompts, specifically including: the screen of the centralized controller flashing and / or the indicator light of the centralized controller flashing, so as to remind the user and give the user an intuitive feeling.
[0249] In some embodiments of the present application, the mobile terminal is further configured to send a second response instruction when it is determined that there is a centralized controller in the list of centralized controllers to be networked that has the same MAC address as that in the second broadcast guidance instruction.
[0250] The centralized controller is further configured to issue a prompt, such as a light and / or sound prompt, when receiving the second response instruction, to prompt the user that the target centralized controller has been found in the list, indicating that the operation is successful.
[0251] The centralized controller distribution network system of this embodiment performs the following process, as shown in FIG16 .
[0252] Step S81: When the mobile terminal determines that there is a central controller in the list of central controllers to be networked that has the same MAC address as that in the second broadcast guidance instruction, the mobile terminal sends a second response instruction.
[0253] Step S82: When the centralized controller receives the second response instruction, it issues a prompt, such as a light and / or sound prompt, to remind the user that the guidance operation is successful.
[0254] In some embodiments of the present application, when the network configuration mode selected by the mobile terminal is the Bluetooth network configuration mode, the MAC address in the second broadcast guidance instruction is the Bluetooth MAC address of the central controller; that is, the MAC address of the Bluetooth module of the central controller.
[0255] When the network configuration mode selected by the mobile terminal is the Softap network configuration mode, the MAC address in the second broadcast guidance instruction is the MAC address of the centralized controller itself.
[0256] The mobile terminal can choose either Bluetooth network configuration mode or SoftAP network configuration mode. It can configure the network for the centralized controller via Bluetooth communication or the centralized controller via SoftAP communication. It is flexible and convenient to use and has a wide range of applications.
[0257] The network distribution process of the centralized controller distribution system will be described in detail below with reference to FIG17 .
[0258] Step S91: The centralized controller is powered on and automatically enters the network distribution mode.
[0259] The centralized controller using Bluetooth communication automatically enters Bluetooth network configuration mode after power-on.
[0260] The centralized controller using Softap communication automatically enters Softap network distribution mode after power-on.
[0261] Step S92: The mobile terminal selects to enter the Bluetooth network configuration mode or the SoftAP network configuration mode, scans the Bluetooth devices or SoftAP devices in the surrounding space, and displays the searched centralized controllers to be configured in a list.
[0262] Step S93: When the central controller detects that the guidance button is pressed in the network configuration mode, the screen or indicator light of the central controller flashes. At the same time, the central controller sends a second broadcast guidance instruction to the Bluetooth channel or SoftAP channel.
[0263] The second broadcast guidance instruction includes the MAC address of the central controller (the MAC address of the central controller itself or the Bluetooth MAC address of the central controller).
[0264] Step S94: After receiving the second broadcast guidance instruction, the mobile terminal determines whether there is a centralized controller in the list of centralized controllers to be networked that has the same MAC address as that in the second broadcast guidance instruction.
[0265] If it does not exist, step S95 is executed: the list of centralized controllers to be networked by the mobile terminal does not provide a light prompt.
[0266] If yes, then step S96 is executed: the interface area where the centralized controller is located is controlled to provide a light prompt, for example, the card of the centralized controller on the display interface of the mobile terminal flashes at the same frequency.
[0267] The user determines the target device based on the flashing condition and completes the network configuration.
[0268] The mobile terminal APP displays a list of centralized controllers to be networked. When the user operates one of the centralized controllers in the space, the centralized controller network configuration system of this embodiment can quickly determine the centralized controller in the list corresponding to the centralized controller the user is operating.
