The technical solution of the present invention is further explained with reference to fig. 5 and 6.
The first embodiment is as follows: every indoor set all can be controlled by a remote controller, the control program of remote controller can increase and set up "other indoor set parameters" function, many indoor sets are set up different ID serial numbers, when needs set up other indoor set parameters, the user only needs to set up other indoor set parameters on the remote controller of local indoor set 1, and send to local indoor set 1, then send to off-premises station 2 by local indoor set 1, send to other indoor sets 3 by off-premises station 2 again, in order to realize the mutual control between the indoor set, as shown in fig. 5, specifically the control process includes:
In step 504, the local indoor unit 1 sends a data packet to the outdoor unit 2. Specifically, when the local indoor unit 1 receives other indoor unit parameters, the ID number of the local indoor unit 1 is embedded in the parameter data, and the relevant setting parameter and the ID value are taken as a data packet and forwarded to the outdoor unit 2 through the indoor and outdoor connection line S or the 485 bus.
In step 506, the outdoor unit 2 reads and records the sender ID number and the parameter receiver ID number, and determines the ID number.
And step 508, sending the data packet to the corresponding other indoor units 3. The outdoor unit 2 performs a routing function, and in addition, the outdoor unit 2 copies and stores a parameter value while sending the parameter to the corresponding other indoor units 3.
In step 510, the other indoor units 3 receive and check the parameters.
In step 512, the other indoor units 3 reply a confirmation signal to the outdoor unit 2 when the parameters match.
And step 514, after receiving the confirmation signal, the outdoor unit 2 operates according to the parameter value.
In step 516, if the outdoor unit 2 does not receive the acknowledgement signal of the indoor unit, the copied parameter value is discarded, and a failure feedback is sent to the local indoor unit 1. If the power is off, the outdoor unit 2 feeds back a signal to the local indoor unit, such as long-ringing, display, flashing, etc.
In the above embodiment, the indoor unit can be stably and reliably controlled by the indoor unit no matter where the outdoor unit is installed in a basement or a closed space.
Example two: in this embodiment, the control of the designated model by the designated model, that is, the customized control, for example, in a single-drive-multiple model, the designated indoor unit 1 can only control the indoor unit 3, each indoor unit can be controlled by a remote controller, the control program of the remote controller can increase the function of setting "other indoor unit parameters", multiple indoor units are set with different ID numbers, when other indoor unit parameters need to be set, the user only needs to set other indoor unit parameters on the remote controller of the indoor unit 1, and send the other indoor unit parameters to the indoor unit 1, and then send the indoor unit 1 to the outdoor unit 2, when the outdoor unit determines that the indoor unit 1 has the control right for the outdoor unit 2, the outdoor unit 2 sends the other indoor unit parameters to the indoor unit 3, so as to realize the mutual control between the indoor units, as:
in step 602, the indoor unit 1 receives other indoor unit parameters sent by the remote controller.
In step 604, the indoor unit 1 transmits a packet to the outdoor unit 2. Specifically, when the indoor unit 1 receives other indoor unit parameters, the ID number of the indoor unit 1 is embedded in the parameter data, and the relevant setting parameter and the ID value are taken as a data packet and forwarded to the outdoor unit 2 through the indoor and outdoor connecting line S or the 485 bus.
In step 606, the outdoor unit 2 reads and records the sender ID number and the parameter receiver ID number, and determines the ID number.
In step 608, the outdoor unit 2 transmits the transmitter SdrID ═ 1& receiver rcvlid ═ 3 to the corresponding indoor unit 3.
In step 610, if it is determined that the sender SdrID & & the receiver RcvID &3is not established, the outdoor unit 2 discards the relevant data and feeds back the setting failure information to the indoor unit 1. The outdoor unit 2 performs a routing function, and in addition, the outdoor unit 2 copies and stores a parameter value while transmitting the parameter to the corresponding indoor unit 3.
In step 612, the indoor unit 3 receives and checks the parameters.
In step 614, the indoor unit 3 replies a confirmation signal to the outdoor unit 2 when the parameters match.
In step 616, the outdoor unit 2 operates according to the parameter value after receiving the confirmation signal.
In step 618, if the outdoor unit 2 does not receive the acknowledgement signal of the indoor unit, the copied parameter value is discarded, and a failure feedback is sent to the indoor unit 1. If the power is off, the outdoor unit 2 feeds back a signal to the local indoor unit, such as long-ringing, display, flashing, etc.
In the above embodiment, the indoor units with control authority limit cannot control any other indoor units or control designated indoor units, the distribution of the control authority may be determined by the forwarding mechanism of the local indoor unit or may be set on the outdoor unit, the control authority is set when installed by the user, and when the indoor unit belongs to the override control, the local indoor unit or the outdoor unit discards the parameter value according to the ID value, and the user can set the parameter value by himself.
The technical scheme of the invention is described in detail by combining the attached drawings, and the invention provides a novel control scheme of the air conditioner, so that the mutual control among the indoor units is realized, the actual use requirements of users are met, and the use experience of the users is improved.
The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention and is not intended to limit the present invention, and various modifications and changes may be made by those skilled in the art. Any modification, equivalent replacement, or improvement made within the spirit and principle of the present invention should be included in the protection scope of the present invention.
