4. the format of the information mainly comprises the following steps:
COMMAND (COMMAND information), represented by byte 0x01, for master to slave control;
DATA, represented by byte 0x02, for indicating update DATA transmitted by the host;
RESERVE (reserved bit), represented by byte 0x03, for extension of control;
EVENT, represented by byte 0x04, for the response of a slave to a command by the master; for example: when the OK indication is fed back, that is, transmission is completed, when error is fed back, retransmission is required, and when wait is fed back, waiting is required.
The master and the slave can determine which information the information is based on the first byte of the information transmitted from the other party.
For the working process of the communication device side, the working process of the intelligent household appliance is as shown in fig. 2, and the working process comprises the following steps:

And sending response information to the address through the address in the communication request. The communication equipment can also be required to input an account and a password, verify the account and the password, and send the response information to the communication equipment when the verification is passed.
And step S23, receiving an upgrade instruction sent by the communication device through the communication link.
And step S24, determining an upgrade task according to the upgrade instruction.
The upgrading instruction carries a flag bit, and the intelligent household appliance can determine whether the upgrading task is data upgrading or program upgrading according to the specific numerical value of the flag bit.
And step S25, executing the upgrading task.
Executing the upgrade task, namely: and receiving the updating data sent by the communication equipment, and carrying out data upgrading or program upgrading.
The state of the intelligent household appliance is divided into an operating state and an upgrading state, when the intelligent household appliance is in the operating state, the intelligent household appliance periodically detects whether a communication request exists, when the intelligent household appliance is in the upgrading state, the intelligent household appliance carries out upgrading operation (namely, executes upgrading tasks), and the state of the intelligent household appliance can be indicated by the preset zone bit value.
