The action principle and control process of each module of the present invention are explained as follows:

When the system is in the power-on 10 state, the central processing unit 1 first tests whether each component of the controller system is normal, and if the system is tested to be normal, at this time, the central processing unit 1 enters the initial state setting 20 of the controller; The initial state setting 20 of the controller is to set the initial value of each component by the central processing unit 1. When the system completes the setting, the system enters the traditional mode 30; the traditional mode 30 is when the operator does not make any settings. , the system operates according to the original set mode, which is called the traditional mode 30; the processing action of the traditional mode 30 is: the central processing unit 1 makes a judgment according to the input control signal, and then the system operates according to the input control signal. The signal is determined to belong to 40 states such as button input, voice input or mode setting input, and the system performs control processing according to the input state selected by the operator in the following procedures:
