The invention discloses an RS485 distributed bus system based control method. Each node in an RS485 distributed bus is only in a receiving state at the beginning, and a state of the RS485 distributed bus is monitored; when the node needs to transmit an instruction or data, a bus control right competition obtaining mechanism is started; the state of the RS485 distributed bus is closely detected; if the state of the bus is always in an idle state within a certain time (bus competition delay detection time), it is determined that the RS485 distributed bus is in the idle state, a transmission enable pin ''TE'' of an RS485 chip of the node can be set, the bus is occupied, and the data are transmitted in time; and until the data of the node is completely transmitted, the transmission enable pin ''TE'' of the RS485 chip of the node is eliminated and resources of the RS485 distributed bus are released. The control method adopts the technical scheme that a bus control right is obtained through competition by monitoring the idle state of the bus.

A single wire bus communication system comprises a bus wire, a host device, and at least one client device, with each host and client device having pull-up and pull-down transistors to pull the bus wire “high” or “low”, respectively. The system is arranged such that, in response to a “trigger event” that requires responses from multiple client devices simultaneously, the host device enables its pull-down transistor, and each client device disables its pull-down transistor when conveying a “low” logic level onto the bus. To avoid bus contention, each client's pull-up transistor is arranged to conduct more current when enabled than the host's pull-down transistor. Then, one or more of the client devices' strong pull-ups will overcome the single weak pull-down on the bus, thereby enabling numerous client devices to respond to a command that requires a response from multiple clients.

The method includes the steps: generating a broadcast command carrying a current value of a counter and transmitting the broadcast command to all the slave computers; judging whether ID unassigned slave computers are present in the system or not; updating the current value of the counter and generating and transmitting the broadcast command carrying the updated current value of the counter to all the slave computers when receiving data returned by a bus competition slave computer if the ID unassigned slave computers are present in the system; judging whether ID unassigned slave computers are present in the master-slave multi-computer communication system or not again until judging that ID is assigned for all the slave computers. The broadcast command is used for controlling the ID unassigned slave computers to participate in bus competition, and the bus competition slave computer is used for storing the current value of the counter carried by the broadcast command as a sole ID and stopping the data transmission function of the slave computer.
