一种控制设备切换的方法及装置
技术领域
本发明涉及到控制技术领域， 更具体地说， 本发明涉及一种控制设 备切换的方法及装置。 发明背景
电子技术、 网络技术以及其他技术的发展将越来越多的消费类电子 产品带入了家庭， 在众多的家用电器中， 仅仅与音视频相关的电器已不 胜枚举， 例如彩电、 音响、 数码相机、 DVD和机顶盒等等。 此外， 数字 媒体适配器 （DMA ) 实现了传统的家用电器与电脑之间的互连互通。 可以预见， 未来的数字家庭中由多种电器构成的设备网络将会更为复 杂。 同样的， 办公环境和工业环境也面临相同问题。
但是， 产品的多样化在满足需求的同时也带来了需要解决的技术问 题： 那就是如何控制同一环境中各种各样的电器设备。 传统的控制多设 备的方式是针对每个设备配备一个遥控器， 当需要控制某一设备时首先 选择与该设备配套的遥控器， 然后通过遥控器控制面板上的控制按钮去 实现用户想要的控制功能。 这种控制方式的弊端显而易见， 经过改进， 人们设计了 "多设备遥控器"， 将多个遥控器集合在一起， 对部分可以 通用的功能按键进行复用， 然后通过设备切换键来实现在各个被控设备 之间的切换。
如附图 1所示， 多设备遥控器控制面板与传统的控制单一设备的遥 控器最大的区别在于设置了设备切换键。 如附图 1中标注为 "设备 1"、 "设备 2"、 "设备 3"和 "设备 4"对应的按键， 这些设备切换键用来实 现被控设 ^之间的切换。 假定 "设备 代表电视机、 "设备 2" 代表 DVD播放器、 "设备 3" 代表机顶盒（STB ， set-top box )、 "设备 4" 代 表备用或者其他的电器。
假设 STB的输出信号连接到电视机的 AV1输入， DVD播放器的输 出信号连接到电视机的 AV2输入。如果用户正在收看数字电视， 通过机 顶盒进行相关操作，则多设备遥控器的当前控制设备为设备 3 (机顶盒）， 此时用户想播放 DVD碟，要完成从当前设备机顶盒到目标设备 DVD播 放机之间的切换需要进行如下的操作： 首先， 用户按多设备遥控器控制 面板上的设备切换键 "设备 1"， 从当前控制设备机顶盒切换到中间设备 电视机， 然后用户按遥控器控制面板上的 AV2切换键，将电视机从 AV1 模式切换到 AV2模式，用户再按多设备遥控器控制面板上的设备切换键 "设备 2"， 从当前控制设备电视机切换到目标设备 DVD播放机， 然后 再利用多设备遥控器上的相应的功能按键实现 DVD机的开机、 磔片装 载、 读磔等功能。
从上述的控制过程来看， 多设备遥控器需要用户多次操作设备切换 键来控制设备切换， 并且为实现从当前设备切换到目标设备的过程， 用 户必须针对切换过程所关联的设备 (当前设备、 中间设备和目标设备） 进行相应的功能控制，这一过程不仅繁瑣， 而且容易出错而导致误操作。 发明内容
本发明的主要目的在于提供一种控制设备切换的方法及装置， 以解 决现有技术中多设备遥控器在控制设备的过程中操作繁瑣的问题。
为实现上述目的， 本发明的技术方案是这样实现的：
一种控制设备切换的方法， 所述的方法包括如下的步骤：
a、在控制设备切换的控制装置上设立与被控目标设备相对应的设备 切换键； b、根据当前控制设备切换到目标设备的过程中当前设备、 中间设备 和目标设备分别需要执行的功能， 对所述的设备切换键定义一组控制信 所述步骤 a包括： 针对各个目标设备， 设立与所述各个目标设备分 别对应的设备切换键； 步骤 b还包括， 根据当前控制设备切换到与设备 切换键相对应的目标设备的过程中当前设备、 中间设备和目标设备分别 需要执行的功能， 对所述的各个设备切换键分别定义一组控制信号。
其中所述的中间设备为 0个或者 1个或者多个。
其中所述的控制装置是遥控器或者是固定于被控设备的控制面板。 该方法进一步包括： 在所述目标设备的输出终端上显示该组控制信 号的执行状况。
本发明还公开了一种控制设备切换的控制装置， 所述的控制装置上 的设备切换键具有与被控目标设备相对应的设备切换键， 其中， 根据当 前控制设备切换到目标设备的过程中当前设备、 中间设备和目标设备分 别需要执行的功能， 所述设备切换键被定义有一组控制信号。
其中所述的控制装置是遥控器或者是固定于被控设备的控制面板。 其中所述的设备切换键在控制设备切换时分别针对当前设备、 中间 设备和目标设备发送控制信号， 控制当前设备、 中间设备和目标设备执 行设备切换需要执行的功能。
其中所述的当前设备、 中间设备和目标设备执行所述的设备切换需 要执行的功能时其执行结果同步显示。
其中所述的中间设备为 0个或者 1个或者多个。
本发明针对现有技术的不足， 提供了一种按照一键多设备组合控制 的方式定义控制装置按键的方法以及控制设备切换的控制装置， 通过针 对设备切换所关联的设备在完成设备切换的过程中需要执行的功能， 对 设备切换键定义一组控制信号， 当用户想切换被控设备时， 只要按下目 标设备对应的设备切换键， 控制装置向关联设备发送所述的一组控制信 号， 控制关联设备同时执行相关的功能。
本发明提供的技术方案大大简化了多设备环境中设备切换时的操作 程序， 减少了用户误操作的可能。 附图简要说明
图 1是现有技术多设备遥控器的控制面板示意图；
图 2是本发明实施例遥控器控制面板示意图；
图 3是本发明实施例的流程图。 实施本发明的方式 为使本发明的目的、 技术方案和优点表达得更加清楚明白， 下面结 合附图及具体实施例对本发明再作进一步详细的说明。
如附图 2所示， 本发明的遥控器的控制面板与附图 1中所示遥控器 控制面板并无太大区别 , 也是根据遥控器所需要控制的设备数目在其控 制面板设置相应的设备切换键， 附图 2中 "TV键" 对应的控制设备是 电视机、 "DVD"键对应的控制设备是 DVD播放机、 "STB"键对应的控 制设备是机顶盒。 但是， 本发明中遥控器的设备切换键所实现的功能与 上述现有技术中的多设备遥控器的设备切换键实现的功能不一样。 本实 施例中， 设备切换键能够实现一键多设备组合控制功能。
首先依据本发明所述的方法对上述的设备切换键的功能进行定义 (对遥控器按键进行定义就是指针对每一个设备切换键设定一組对应 的编码， 当该设备切换键被按下时， 遥控器将所述的编码调制后以红外 信号发出， 相应的当前设备、 中间设备和目标设备的红外接收装置分别 识别接收各自的红外信号后进行解码， 用解码后的信号控制该设备进行 相应的操作）， 每一个设备切换键被定义为发送一组控制信号， 当用户 需要切换到该设备时， 按下该设备切换键， 遥控器依据上述的定义依次 向切换到目标设备所关联的当前设备、 中间和目标设备发送控制信号， 控制所述的关联设备完成设备切换所需执行的功能。
下面具体说明 , 切换到目标设备所包括的关联设备包括当前设备、 中间设备和目标设备， 其中中间设备可以没有， 也可以不只一个。 本实 施例中遥控器所控制的设备总数为三个， 所以中间设备最多只能为一 个。
为使遥控器的设备切换键具有一键控制多个设备的功能， 首先要对 设备切换键分别进行定义，针对设备切换键 DVD按键,切换到播放 DVD 所关联的设备需要执行的功能分别为： 电视机进入 AV2模式、遥控器控 制权为 DVD控制和 DVD电源开，依据中间设备电视机需要执行的功能 对设备切换键定义一个控制信号， 同时还依据目标设备 DVD播放机需 要执行的功能对设备切换键定义一个控制信号。同理，对设备切换键 STB 和 TV按照同样的思路进行定义。
完成上述对遥控器设备切换键的定义之后 , 遥控器即可按照本发明 所述的方法完成相应的功能。 应用上述方法的遥控器如附图 2所示， 除 了其中的设备切换键 "TV"、 "DVD"和 "STB" 能够完成一键多设备组 合控制的功能之外， 其他的数字按键和功能按键与传统的遥控器类似。 以下举例说明： 如附图 3所示， 假设用户通过遥控器对机顶盒（STB ) 进行了相应的操作， 电视机正在播出数字电视节目， 用户想用 DVD播 放机播放影碟， 因为选择设备切换键是根据目标设备进行的， 此时用户 的目标设备是 DVD播放机， 因此用户选择按下设备切换键 DVD按键， 当 DVD按键被按下后， 遥控器对中间设备电视机 ( TV )发送 AV2转换 信号、将遥控器的控制权变为 DVD控制模式，对目标设备 DVD播放机 发送电源开（ON )信号， 如果电视机当前是 TV模式， 电视机接收相应 信号后从 TV模式切换到 AV2模式（如果电视机当前模式是 AV2模式， 则无需执行 ), DVD播放机接收相应的控制信号后开启电源， 至此通过 一个按键完成了整个的控制过程， 然后用户可通过遥控器上的其他功能 按键控制 DVD播放机播放碟片， 相应的图像信号通过电视机的 AV2端 口输入电视机并经过处理后在电视机上显示图像。 当用户想要控制其他 的目标设备时其过程与此类似， 用户按下想要控制的目标设备对应的设 备切换键即可完成所有的操作， 实现了一键多设备组合控制功能。
上述的遥控器发送几个控制信号的时间间隔可以设定的极小， 用户 几乎感觉不到， 因此， 对于用户来说， 只要按一个按键就可一次完成多 个控制步骤， 简单快捷。 同时， 控制的过程中， 电视机上可以同步显示 各个关联设备的控制结果， 如针对上述的例子电视机上同时显示 "TV 切换到 AV2模式" 和 "DVD电源开" 两个控制结果， 用户可通过这些 显示判断控制过程是否完成， 以便进行下一步的操作。
本实施例中假设遥控器需要控制的设备为三个， 分别为电视机、 DVD播放机和机顶盒 ,本发明所述的方法也可应用到三个以上的设备的 控制， 而且本发明对于其他应用环境（办公环境、 工业环境） 的多设备 遥控器也同样适用。 对多设备的控制，'其控制工具并不一定要采用遥控 器， 依据本发明的原理设计的固定于某设备的控制面板同样在本发明的 保护范围之内。
另外， 当遥控器对家庭网络中的多个设备进行控制时， 通常用户的 注意力常常集中在所要控制的设备的输出终端上。 例如， 用户观看数字 电视或 DVD, 所要控制的设备是数字电视机顶盒或 DVD播放器， 但是 他的注意力却集中在电视机终端上， 因此如果用户对机顶盒或者 DVD 的功能控制如果没能在电视机上体现， 则用户会无所适从。 所以， 本发 明在对多设备遥控器按键进行定义时 , 优选对每个按键的功能控制要求 能够在目标设备的输出终端上有所显示或者体现， 这样用户才能够最简 易、 最方便的使用遥控器。
以上所述， 仅为本发明的较佳实施例而已， 并非用于限定本发明的 保护范围。 凡在本发明的精神和原则之内， 所作的任何修改、等同替换、 改进等， 均应包含在本发明的保护范围之内。
