Embodiment 1

When the slave device includes the KNX device, please refer to FIG. 2, the control method of the smart home device may include the following steps:

Step 201: The control panel is connected to the KNX device through the KNX bus, and the control panel is connected to the main control device by wireless.

In this embodiment, the main control device (hereinafter collectively referred to as an IOS device) may be any one of a mobile phone, a tablet, and a computer with an IOS operating system installed.

The KNX device supports the KNX protocol, and the IOS device supports the Homekit protocol. The system architecture corresponding to the KNX protocol and the Homekit protocol is different.

Among them, the system architecture corresponding to the KNX protocol is a distributed system. Each KNX device in the distributed system is connected through the KNX bus. The relationship between the KNX devices on the KNX bus is equal, and one KNX device can control multiple In smart home devices, smart home devices can be abstracted into KNX objects in the KNX protocol, and communication between KNX devices and KNX devices is abstracted as communication between KNX objects and KNX objects.

The system architecture corresponding to the Homekit protocol is a centralized system, with the IOS device as the control center, and the IOS device can control multiple smart home devices. In the Homekit protocol, the smart home device is abstracted into the Homekit feature, and Each of the achievable Homekit functions is abstracted into a collection of services, and each Homekit service can include multiple Homekit features.

Among them, KNX object / Homekit features can include: lamp switch, lamp brightness, air conditioning temperature, curtain lift, security system switch, heating switch, ventilation system switch.

In order to achieve control of the KNX device and control in the Homekit protocol, and can work together, a control panel can be provided as a gateway device in the control system. Since the KNX device is connected via the KNX bus, it is necessary to connect the control panel to at least one KNX device via the KNX bus. The IOS device can be a mobile device, for example, a mobile phone, a tablet, a pen The notebook computer, etc., can also be a non-mobile terminal device, for example, a desktop computer, so that the control panel and the IOS device can be connected wirelessly. Please refer to FIG. 3 , which is a schematic structural diagram of a control system when the slave device is a KNX device.

In this embodiment, in order to implement wireless control of the KNX device by using the IOS device, the control panel can store the KNX object and the Homekit feature.

In this embodiment, a KNX protocol stack may be included in the control panel, and the control panel may be connected to the KNX device through the KNX protocol stack. The KNX protocol stack stores a group object table, where the group object table includes a KNX bus. All KNX objects. Therefore, when the KNX object is acquired by the control panel, all KNX objects can be taken out by traversing the group object table in the KNX protocol stack.

The control system may also include multiple KNX devices, each of which includes multiple KNX objects. For example, the control system comprises a KNX device 1 and a KNX device 2, wherein the KNX device 1 comprises the following KNX objects: the switch of the lamp 1, the brightness of the lamp 1, the switch of the lamp 2, the brightness of the lamp 2; the KNX device 2 comprises the following KNX Target: The temperature of the air conditioner, the wind speed of the air conditioner, and the lifting of the curtains.

Similarly, the control system includes the following characteristics of the Homekit service: the switch of the lamp 1, the brightness of the lamp 1, the switch of the lamp 2, the brightness of the lamp 2, the temperature of the air conditioner, the wind speed of the air conditioner, and the lifting and lowering of the curtain.

Step 202: Establish a mapping relationship between the KNX object and the Homekit feature.

In a preferred embodiment of the present invention, in the established mapping relationship, the KNX object with the mapping relationship and the Homekit feature are used to express the same operation. To ensure the ordering of the mapping relationship, the KNX object and the Homekit feature can be numbered, and the KNX object used to represent the same operation has the same number as the Homekit feature. Among them, the switch for the KNX object is the lamp 1 and the switch with the Homekit characteristic of the lamp 1 is used to express the same operation.

For example, the following KNX objects are numbered separately: KNX object 1: switch of lamp 1; KNX object 2: brightness of lamp 1; KNX object 3: switch of lamp 2; KNX object 4: brightness of lamp 2; KNX object 5 : temperature of air conditioner; KNX object 6: wind speed of air conditioner; KNX object 7: lifting of curtains.

Correspondingly, the following Homekit features are numbered as follows: Homekit feature 1: Light 1 switch; Homekit feature 2: Light 1 brightness; Homekit feature 3: Light 2 switch; Homekit feature 4: Light 2 brightness; Homekit features 5: air conditioning temperature; Homekit features 6: air conditioning wind speed; Homekit features 7: curtain lift.

The mapping between the KNX object and the Homekit feature is established based on the number of the KNX object and the Homekit feature. For details, see Figure 4 for the mapping relationship.

Step 203: Determine a group address corresponding to each KNX object, and configure the same group address for each KNX object stored according to the determined group address of each KNX object.

Since the communication between the KNX object and the KNX object is implemented by the group address, that is, among the plurality of KNX objects with the same group address, after the value of one of the KNX objects is modified, the other KNX objects are also modified accordingly. For example, the switch of the lamp 1 is the same as the group address of the two KNX objects of the switch of the lamp 2, then if the value of the switch of the lamp 1 is modified to 1 (1 means open, 0 means off), the value of the lamp 2 will also be Changed to 1.

The form of the group address may include: three segments, wherein the value of the first segment from left to right is 0-15, the second segment is 0-15, and the third segment is 0-255.

Therefore, in order to implement wireless control of the KNX device by the IOS device, the group address needs to be configured for the KNX object stored in the control panel, and the configured group address needs to be the same as the actual group address of the corresponding KNX object.

For example, the KNX object corresponding to the KNX device: the switch of the lamp 1 whose group address is 1/0/1, then the group address of the KNX object 1 stored in the control panel needs to be configured as 1/0/1.

The configuration of the group address of the KNX object obtained in the control panel is implemented by the ETS software.

In this embodiment, the KNX object configuration group address stored in the control panel may be configured by the method of this step, or the KNX object and each KNX object may be correspondingly traversed when the group object table is traversed in step 201. The group address is taken out and the KNX object and the corresponding group address are stored at the same time.

Step 204: The IOS device sets configuration data and sends the configuration data to the control panel.

In order to achieve intelligent control of smart home devices, the Homekit feature can be configured to intelligently control smart home devices using configuration data.

In a preferred embodiment of the invention, the configuration data may comprise a plurality of packets, each packet including at least one characteristic having the same service.

For example, divide the switch of Homekit feature 1: lamp 1 and the switch of Homekit feature 3: lamp 2 into one group 1; divide the brightness of Homekit feature 2: lamp 1 and the brightness of Homekit feature 4: lamp 2 into one group 2.

It should be noted that each of the other characteristics may be set as one packet, or may not be grouped. If other characteristics are not grouped, the feature may be separately located in one packet by default.

In this way, the IOS device can implement control of all the features in the same group with the feature when controlling one of the characteristics, or can implement the IOS device when controlling a group. The control of all the features in the group can improve the control convenience of the smart home device and improve the user experience.

In a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the configuration data may further include: a plurality of scene modes, each of the scene patterns corresponding to the at least one characteristic.

For example, set the following scenario mode 1: Change the value of the switch with Homekit feature 1 to lamp 1 to 1 (open state), and set the brightness value of Homekit feature 2 to lamp 1 to 30 (where the brightness of the lamp can be from 0) -100, the smaller the value is, the lower the brightness is, the higher the value is, the higher the brightness is.) The Homekit characteristic 5 is adjusted to a temperature of 30 degrees for the air conditioner, and the Homekit characteristic 6 is adjusted to a low wind for the air speed of the air conditioner.

For another example, set the following scenario 2: Change the value of the switch of Homekit feature 3 to lamp 2 to 0 (off state), and change the value of the switch of Homekit feature 7 to the curtain to 1 (open state, 0 is off state) .

In this way, when the IOS device is determined to be adjusted to a certain scene mode, all the features corresponding to the scene mode can be adjusted in corresponding modes, thereby improving the smart home setting. The convenience of control is provided to improve the user experience.

Further, in this embodiment, the setting of the scenario mode may be combined with the configuration of the group. For example, the scenario mode 3 is set to modify the values of the Homekit feature 1 and the Homekit feature 3 in the packet 1 to 1, and the packet 2 is The values in Homekit Feature 2 and Homekit Feature 4 are all changed to 30.

In a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the IOS device can also set a voice recognition function to implement control operations through Siri, for example, setting "turn off all lights in the bedroom", and performing the Homekit feature corresponding to all the lights in the bedroom. Correlation, for example, the Homekit feature 1 and the Homekit feature 3 of all the lights in the bedroom. When the user says "turn off all the lights in the bedroom" through Siri, the control panel can be controlled so that the control panel will have the Homekit feature 1 and The value of Homekit Feature 3 is changed to 0.

In a preferred embodiment of the invention, the IOS device can also set a series of operations to be triggered periodically or repeatedly. For example, an operation to turn off the light at a certain time on a certain day, and the like.

In this embodiment, in order to ensure that the user replaces the IOS device, the configuration of the smart home device can still be implemented, and the configuration data can be transmitted to the control panel through the server, and the process can include: the IOS device sends the configuration data to the server, and the server stores The configuration data is sent to the control panel, and the control panel requests the server to download the configuration data according to the configuration data update message to download the configuration data.

The control panel stores the downloaded configuration data in the memory. Since the data in the memory disappears after the control panel is restarted, the configuration data can be stored in the Flash in order to ensure that the configuration data is not lost. The data stored in the Flash does not disappear after the control panel is restarted. Therefore, the established mapping relationship, the stored KNX object and the group address can also be stored in the Flash. After the control panel is restarted, the data in the Flash can be read into the memory.

Step 205: The IOS device sends a control message to the control panel.

In this embodiment, the control message that the IOS device can send to the control panel can be used to modify the value of the target feature, for example, modify the value of the target feature to Homekit feature 1 to 1; can also be used to control a certain group, for example, the value of all the characteristics in group 1 is changed to 1; can also be used to adjust the scene mode to the target scene mode, for example, adjust the scene mode to Scene mode 1.

Step 206: The control panel determines, according to the control message, all characteristics required to be controlled by the IOS device.

For example, when the control message is used to modify the values of all the characteristics in the packet 1, according to the configuration data stored in the memory, it can be determined that the packet 1 includes the Homekit feature 1 and the Homekit feature 3, and therefore, the Homekit feature can be selected. 1 and Homekit feature 3 as a characteristic of the required control.

For example, when the control message is used to adjust the context mode to the scenario mode 1, according to the configuration data, the characteristics corresponding to the scenario mode 1 may be determined to include: Homekit Feature 1, Homekit Feature 2, Homekit Feature 5, and Homekit Feature 6 .

The following describes the embodiment by using the control message as an example for adjusting the scene mode to the scene mode 1.

Step 207: Determine the target KNX object to be controlled according to the determined characteristics of the required control and the mapping relationship.

In this embodiment, the target KNX object to be controlled may be directly determined according to the mapping relationship, so as to modify the value of the determined target KNX object, or may store the feature in advance, and determine the required control according to the control message. The value of the feature is modified accordingly, and is not specifically limited herein.

In this embodiment, the target KNX objects to be controlled may be determined according to the mapping relationship and all the characteristics of the required control: KNX object 1, KNX object 2, KNX object 5, and KNX object 6.

Step 208: Modify the determined value of the target KNX object according to the control message.

In this embodiment, since the control message is used to adjust the smart home device to the scene mode 1, the control panel can change the value of the stored KNX object 1 to 1, and the value of the KNX object 2 to 30, which will be KNX. The value of object 5 is modified 30 and the value of KNX object 6 is modified to 8 low winds.

Step 209: The KNX protocol stack sends a slave control message to the KNX bus, where the slave message Carry the group address of the target KNX object and the modified target value.

In this embodiment, since the KNX objects are communicated by the group address, the KNX protocol stack can send a slave message to the KNX bus, and the slave message can carry the group address of the KNX object 1 and the modified The target value, the group address of the KNX object 2 and the modified target value, the group address of the KNX object 5 and the modified target value, the group address of the KNX object 6, and the modified target value.

Since KNX object 1 and KNX object 2 correspond to the same KNX device 1, KNX object 5 and KNX object 6 correspond to the same KNX device 2, the KNX protocol stack can also send two slave messages like the KNX bus, one of which The control message carries the group address of the KNX object 1 and the modified target value, the group address of the KNX object 2 and the modified target value, and another slave message carries the group address of the KNX object 5 and the modified target value, the KNX object 6 group address and modified target value.

The number of the slave messages sent by the KNX protocol stack to the KNX bus can be set according to the requirements of the user. This embodiment does not specifically limit this.

Step 210: The corresponding KNX device connected to the KNX bus modifies the value of the corresponding KNX object according to the information carried in the slave control message.

The KNX device 1 can change the value of the KNX object 1 to 1, and the value of the KNX object 2 to 30; and the KNX device 2 can modify the value of the KNX object 5 by 30, and the value of the KNX object 6 to 8 .

Since the KNX object corresponds to the smart home device, the KNX device can control the smart home device according to the modified value of each KNX object.

In the above, wireless control of the KNX device using the IOS device is realized.
