Based on the hardware architecture of the remote controller, the embodiment of the control method of the air conditioner is provided.
Referring to fig. 2, fig. 2 is a first embodiment of a control method of an air conditioner according to the present invention, the control method of the air conditioner includes the steps of:
step S10, the remote controller determines a target air conditioner in each air conditioner;
in this embodiment, the remote controller and the air conditioner are provided with communication modules, and the remote controller and the air conditioner can communicate bidirectionally through the communication modules. In addition, an infrared emission module can be arranged on the remote controller for emitting a remote control code, namely the remote control code can be received by the air conditioner in the form of infrared light. The air conditioner can set the format of the received remote control code, namely the air conditioner sets the character string of the head of the receivable remote control. When the air conditioner obtains the remote control code, the character string of the head of the remote control code is obtained, and if the character string is the character string set by the air conditioner, the air conditioner obtains the character string of the tail of the remote control code so as to finish the receiving of the remote control code. If the character string of the head of the remote controller acquired by the air conditioner is not the character string set by the air conditioner, the air conditioner discards the remote control code.
The remote controller has a display screen on which all air conditioners in a home or office can be displayed. The user can select a target air conditioner among the air conditioners displayed on the display screen. Specifically, the remote controller displays a preset interface, and the preset interface includes each air conditioner and the position of the home or office where each air conditioner is located. For example, an air conditioner for displaying a hall left corner, a hall right corner, and a bedroom on a preset interface. If the user needs to independently control the air conditioner, selecting a target air conditioner on a preset interface, namely, when the remote controller detects the selected operation based on the preset interface, taking the air conditioner corresponding to the selected operation as the target air conditioner, thereby realizing that the remote controller determines the target air conditioner in a plurality of air conditioners.
And step S20, sending an instruction for switching the remote control code format to the target air conditioner, wherein when the target air conditioner receives the instruction, the receiving format of the remote control code is switched to a first format, the first format is different from the receiving format of the remote control code of each other air conditioner, and the other air conditioners are air conditioners except the target air conditioner.
The remote controller is provided with a remote control code which is a character string consisting of numbers and letters. The string of remote control codes is divided into two parts, one being the head and the other being the tail. The character string corresponding to the head is used for representing the format of the remote control code, and the character string corresponding to the tail is used for representing the instruction corresponding to the remote control code.
And storing the equipment identification of the air conditioner on the remote controller, wherein the equipment identification is associated with the position. After determining the target air conditioner according to the position, the remote controller acquires the equipment identifier of the air conditioner and acquires the position associated with the equipment identifier. The remote controller sends an instruction for switching the format of the remote control code to the target air conditioner at the position, wherein the instruction carries a first format, so that the target air conditioner switches the current mode of the remote control code into the first format, namely, the target air conditioner only receives the remote control code in the first format. It should be noted that, the first format is specific to the target air conditioner, that is, the first format is different from the receiving formats of other air conditioners, so that the other air conditioners cannot receive the remote control code of the first format, and the remote controller realizes the independent control of the target air conditioner through the remote control code of the first format.
In order to avoid other air conditioners receiving the instruction, the remote controller sends the instruction to the target air conditioner through the communication module of the remote controller instead of sending the instruction to the target air conditioner through the infrared emission module (sending the instruction to the target air conditioner through the infrared emission module can enable the other air conditioners to also receive the instruction, and then the receiving format of the remote control code is switched to the first format).
Of course, the remote controller may also transmit the remote control code in the manner of the infrared transmitting module, but the command corresponding to the remote control code carries the device identifier of the target air conditioner, so that the verification command of the target air conditioner includes the device identifier of the target air conditioner, and the receiving format of the remote control code is switched to the first format, so that other air conditioners are prevented from receiving the remote control code and switching the receiving format of the remote control code to the first format. That is, the remote controller can only be provided with an infrared emission module, a wifi module or other communication modules are not required to be arranged, and the cost of the remote controller is low.
Step S30, switching the transmission format of the remote control code into a first format.
After the remote controller sends an instruction to the remote controller, the remote controller sets the sending format of the remote control code of the remote controller, namely, the sending format of the remote control code is switched to the first format. And when the remote controller needs to send the remote control code, the remote control code is obtained by combining the character string corresponding to the sending format with the character string corresponding to the instruction. Or, the remote controller may directly add a character string corresponding to the transmission format in front of each instruction, so as to store the remote control code corresponding to each instruction.
After the remote controller switches the transmission format of the remote control code into the first format, the format of the subsequent transmission remote control code is the first format. The receiving format of the remote control code of the target air conditioner is also the first format, so that the purpose that the remote controller independently controls the target air conditioner through the remote control code of the first format can be realized, and the condition that a plurality of air conditioners respond to the remote controller can not occur.
In addition, the remote controller can output the format of the current controlled air conditioner and the remote control code through the display screen. For example, the remote controller displays and controls the air conditioner in the middle of the room, and the format of the remote controller is displayed in the first format, if the remote controller includes two formats AB and B as the first format, the remote controller displays B.

Referring to fig. 4, fig. 4 is a third embodiment of a control method of an air conditioner according to the present invention, based on the second embodiment, before the step S40, further includes:
step S70, determining a target key in all keys on the remote controller;
step S80, setting first operation information corresponding to the target key, and storing the first operation information in association with a first format of the remote control code.
In this embodiment, the remote controller may set the first operation information switched to the first format. Specifically, the remote controller determines a target key from all keys on the remote controller, and the remote controller can randomly select or select an idle key as the target key. The spare key is that the manufacturer does not configure instructions for the key, and the key is a spare key. Alternatively, the remote controller may select a key with a smaller number of associated instructions as the target key.
After the target key is determined, the remote controller sets first operation information on the target key, and finally, the first operation information and the first format are associated and stored. The first operation information is the key duration of the target keys, the key compartment duration between the target keys, or the key duration of the target keys and the key interval duration between the target keys.
In the technical scheme provided by the embodiment, the remote controller determines the target key in the keys, sets the first operation information corresponding to the target key, and finally stores the first operation information in association with the first format of the remote control code, so that the remote controller can conveniently output the operation information switched to the first format to switch the transmission format of the remote control code to the first format, and the independent control of the air conditioner is realized.

step S11, the remote controller sends a remote control code in a second format to the air conditioner;
step S12, receiving response information fed back by the air conditioner, wherein the response information is fed back to the remote controller after the air conditioner receives the remote control code in the second format;
and S13, when the number of the response messages is a plurality of, determining a target air conditioner in the air conditioners corresponding to the response messages.
In this embodiment, the remote controller may send a remote control code in the second format to the air conditioner. After the air conditioner receives the remote control code, the air conditioner feeds back response information to the remote controller, namely, the information that the air conditioner has received and responded to the remote control code is sent to the remote controller. The second format may be a default format. If the air conditioner receives the remote control code, the air conditioner feeds back response information to the remote controller.
After the remote controller sends the remote control code in the second format, the number of the received response information is counted in a period of time. If the number is a plurality of air conditioners, the condition that the air conditioners respond to the remote control codes in the second format at the same time is indicated, and the air conditioners respond to the remote control codes by mistake.
The remote controller determines a target air conditioner in the air conditioner corresponding to each response message. Specifically, an azimuth sensor and a positioning module can be arranged in the remote controller, the direction of the remote controller can be determined by the remote controller through the azimuth sensor, the direction of the head of the remote controller is determined by the transmitting direction of the remote control code of the remote controller, and the remote controller positions the position of the remote controller through the positioning module. The remote controller can store the positions of all the air conditioners, and the remote controller can determine the air conditioner pointed by the head of the remote controller according to the pointing direction and the positions of all the air conditioners. The air conditioner pointed by the head of the remote controller is a target air conditioner which is required to be controlled by the remote controller.
Further, when the remote controller counts that the response information is multiple, the remote controller can determine that the remote controller is met by multiple air conditioners at the same time. The remote controller outputs inquiry information of whether to independently control the air conditioner through the display screen, namely, the user determines and selects the target air conditioner to be independently controlled.
And a determination key is arranged on the remote controller, and if the operation of the determination key is detected, the determination key can be regarded as the detection of the first determination operation based on the inquiry information. After the remote controller determines the first determining operation, outputting a selection interface, wherein the selection interface comprises the information of the air conditioner corresponding to each piece of response information. For example, the names of the respective air conditioners and the location of each air conditioner are displayed on the selection interface.

It should be noted that, the first format is specific to the target air conditioner, that is, the first format is different from the receiving formats of other air conditioners, so that the other air conditioners cannot receive the remote control code of the first format, and the remote controller realizes the independent control of the target air conditioner through the remote control code of the first format.
In order to avoid other air conditioners receiving the instruction, the remote controller sends the instruction to the target air conditioner through the communication module of the remote controller instead of sending the instruction to the target air conditioner through the infrared emission module (sending the instruction to the target air conditioner through the infrared emission module can enable the other air conditioners to also receive the instruction, and further the receiving format of the remote control code is switched to the first format)
After the remote controller sends an instruction to the remote controller, the remote controller sets the sending format of the remote control code of the remote controller, namely, the sending format of the remote control code is switched to the first format. And when the remote controller needs to send the remote control code, the remote control code is obtained by combining the character string corresponding to the sending format with the character string corresponding to the instruction. Or, the remote controller may directly add a character string corresponding to the transmission format in front of each instruction, so as to store the remote control code corresponding to each instruction.
After the remote controller switches the transmission format of the remote control code into the first format, the format of the subsequent transmission remote control code is the first format. The receiving format of the remote control code of the target air conditioner is also the first format, so that the purpose that the remote controller independently controls the target air conditioner through the remote control code of the first format can be realized, and the condition that a plurality of air conditioners respond to the remote controller can not occur.
In addition, the remote controller can output the format of the current controlled air conditioner and the remote control code through the display screen. For example, the remote controller displays and controls the air conditioner in the middle of the room, and the format of the remote controller is displayed in the first format, if the remote controller includes two formats AB and B as the first format, the remote controller displays B.
In the technical scheme provided by the embodiment, the target air conditioner receives an instruction for switching the format of the remote control code sent by the remote controller, the sending format of the remote control code of the remote controller is switched to the first format, and then the receiving format of the remote control code is switched to the first format according to the instruction, wherein the first format is different from the receiving format of the remote control code of each other air conditioner. The remote controller can configure the remote control code with the corresponding format for the target air conditioner, and the format configured for the target air conditioner is different from the formats of other air conditioners, so that the target air conditioner responds to the instruction of the remote controller and the other air conditioners cannot respond to the instruction sent by the remote controller, and the situation that the other air conditioners respond to the remote control code of the remote controller to operate when the remote controller controls the target air conditioner through the remote control code is avoided, namely, the misoperation of the air conditioner is avoided.
In one embodiment, before step S100, the method further includes:
