Fig. 1 is a schematic flowchart of a software upgrading method for an electrical appliance according to an embodiment of the present application.
The software upgrading method of the electric appliance can be applied to the electric appliance, and the electric appliance can be a washing machine, a washing and drying integrated machine, an air conditioner, a refrigerator, a microwave oven and an electric cooker, or can be other types of electric appliances, and is not limited herein.
As shown in fig. 1, the software upgrading method of the electric appliance may include the steps of:
In the embodiment of the present application, the version information of the latest version software may include an update level, a version number, software update content, and the like of the latest version software.
In the embodiment of the application, the electric appliance can acquire the version information of the latest version software from the server side.
As a possible implementation manner, the electric appliance may query the version information of the latest version software from the server side in real time or periodically. For example, the appliance may send a query request in real time or periodically to query the version information of the latest version of software, and accordingly, the server may return the version information of the latest version of software to the appliance after receiving the query request.
As another possible implementation manner, the inquiry of the version information of the latest version software can also be triggered by manual operation of a user. For example, a system version button may be disposed on a display interface of the appliance, and a user may manually click the system version button to trigger a query request, so that the appliance queries the version information of the latest version software from the server side. Therefore, the user inquires the version information of the latest version software according to the self requirement, and the flexibility and the applicability of the method can be improved.
As another possible implementation manner, in order not to affect the washing process, the version information of the latest version of software may be queried by the appliance from the server side every time the appliance is powered on.
In the embodiment of the present application, the operation influence degree may refer to an influence degree on a display process, an operation process, and the like of an electrical appliance.
It should be appreciated that, when the update level indicates that the software update content has a high degree of impact on the operation of the appliance, for example, the software update content relates to update content such as system defect, and at this time, if the upgrade of the latest version software is not performed immediately, the electric appliance system may be crashed, or, a safety accident or the like may occur to the electric appliance, and when the update level indicates that the operation of the electric appliance is affected to a low degree by the software update content, for example, the software update content relates to update contents such as an appliance logic function patch, a control function defect class, an important new function class, a User Interface (UI) interaction experience optimization class, background data interaction monitoring and patch class, and at this time, even if the upgrade of the latest version software is not executed or the upgrade of the latest version software is not executed immediately, the normal operation of the electric appliance is not influenced.
Therefore, in the embodiment of the present application, when the update level indicates that the software update content has a high degree of influence on the operation of the electrical appliance, in order to ensure the normal and reliable operation of the electrical appliance, the current time may be used as the upgrade time, and when the update level indicates that the software update content has a low degree of influence on the operation of the electrical appliance, the user may select the corresponding upgrade time.
And 103, executing the upgrade of the latest version software at the upgrade time.
In the embodiment of the application, after the upgrade time is determined, the upgrade of the latest version software can be executed at the upgrade time. According to the method and the device, the upgrading time is flexibly selected according to the influence degree of the software updating content on the operation of the electric appliance, and the flexibility of the software upgrading method can be improved. Moreover, the version information is automatically acquired by the electric appliance for remote upgrading, so that a user does not need to wait for after-sales personnel to manually upgrade, the use experience of the user can be improved, and the after-sales cost can be saved.
According to the software upgrading method for the electric appliance, version information of software of the latest version is obtained; determining the upgrading time according to the updating grade in the version information; the updating level is used for indicating the degree of influence of the software updating content on the operation of the electric appliance; at the time of upgrade, the upgrade of the latest version of software is performed. According to the method and the device, the upgrading time is flexibly selected according to the influence degree of the software updating content on the operation of the electric appliance, and the flexibility of the software upgrading method can be improved. Moreover, the version information is automatically acquired by the electric appliance for remote upgrading, so that a user does not need to wait for after-sales personnel to manually upgrade, the use experience of the user can be improved, and the after-sales cost can be saved.
As a possible implementation manner, the update level may include a first level and a second level with high to low operation influence degree, and referring to fig. 2, the software upgrading method of the electrical appliance may specifically include the following steps:
The execution process of step 201 may refer to the execution process of step 101 in the above embodiments, which is not described herein again.
In the embodiment of the present application, the first level is an update level at which software update content has the highest influence degree on the operation of the electrical appliance, for example, the software update content is updated according to a defect of an electrical appliance system, and at this time, if the update of the latest version of software is not performed immediately, the electrical appliance system may be crashed, or a safety accident may occur to the electrical appliance. Therefore, when the updating level is the first level, forced upgrading is carried out, so that the electric appliance can be prevented from being crashed, or the probability of safety accidents is reduced.
And step 203, if the update level in the version information is the second level, taking the target moment selected by the user operation as the upgrade moment, or taking the moment of manually triggering the upgrade as the upgrade moment.
In the embodiment of the application, the second level is an update level with a low influence degree of software update contents on the operation of the electrical appliance, for example, the software update contents of the software update contents relate to update contents such as a logic function patch of the electrical appliance, a defect class of an operation and control function, an important new function class, a UI interaction experience optimization class, background data interaction monitoring and patch class, and the like, and at this time, even if the upgrade of the software of the latest version is not performed or the upgrade of the software of the latest version is not immediately performed, the normal operation of the electrical appliance is not influenced.
Therefore, in the present application, when the update level in the version information is the second level, the user may select the corresponding upgrade time. For example, the target time selected by the user operation may be used as the upgrade time, or the time when the upgrade is manually triggered may be used as the upgrade time. Therefore, when the updating level is in the equal second level, the user sets the upgrading time according to the self requirement and automatically upgrades at the upgrading time set by the user, so that the flexibility and the applicability of the method can be improved, and the individual upgrading requirements of different users can be met.
As a possible implementation manner, after the electrical appliance obtains the version information of the latest version software, if the update level is determined to be the second level, an update prompt window can be displayed on the version update page, wherein the update prompt window displays the version information of the latest version software, a control for updating, a control for later prompting and a control for refusing prompting, and when the control for triggering the updating is detected, the current time can be used as the updating time; when detecting that a control for later prompting is triggered, displaying an upgrade time setting interface or an upgrade reservation window, and taking a target moment selected according to user operation as an upgrade moment; and when detecting that the control used for rejecting the prompt is triggered, canceling the upgrade.
As an example, an electric appliance is taken as a washing machine for example, see fig. 3, and fig. 3 is a schematic view of a version update page in an embodiment of the present application. After the electric appliance obtains the version information of the latest version software, if the update level is determined to be the second level, three buttons are arranged in an update prompting window displayed on an version update page, namely an immediate update button, a later prompt button and a no-more-reminding button, a user can trigger the immediate update button, and the time of upgrading is manually triggered, namely the time when the user manually clicks the immediate update button is taken as the time of upgrading; when the user triggers a 'prompt later' button, the user can be guided to enter an upgrade time setting interface or an upgrade reservation window, and the user can customize the upgrade time; and when the user triggers the 'no more reminder' button, the user does not remind any more and cancels the upgrading.
That is to say, in the present application, after the update prompt window is displayed, the electrical appliance may select the corresponding target time in response to a user operation on a control in the update prompt window, so as to use the target time as the upgrade time.
For example, to avoid affecting the normal use of the user, the target time selected by the user may be in a daytime period from monday to friday, such as between 9:00-17:00, so that the user may use the appliance to wash the laundry after work shift, or on a double holiday.
It should be noted that, the above-mentioned manner of only reserving the upgrade time by the user is: when receiving the update prompt, the upgrade time is reserved according to the user operation for example, and in actual application, the method for reserving the upgrade time by the user may further be: and the user prestores the reserved upgrading time and upgrades the upgrade according to the prestored reserved time after receiving the update prompt. That is to say, in the present application, after the electrical appliance obtains the version information of the latest version of software, if the update level is determined to be the second level, the setting information may also be queried to obtain the target time preset by the user operation, so that the target time is taken as the update time. Therefore, the user can set the upgrading time according to different modes, and the flexibility and the applicability of the method can be improved so as to meet the personalized setting requirements of different users.
As another possible implementation manner, after the electrical appliance obtains the version information of the latest version of software, if the update level is determined to be the second level, a new message prompt may be generated, and an update prompt window is displayed in response to a user operation on the new message prompt; the updating prompting window displays version information of the latest version software, a control for upgrading and a control for refusing prompting, and when the control for upgrading is detected to be triggered, the current moment is taken as the upgrading moment; when a trigger for rejecting a prompt is detected, the update prompt window is minimized.
As another example, an electric appliance is taken as a washing machine for example, referring to fig. 4, fig. 4 is a schematic diagram of a version update page in an embodiment of the present application. After the electric appliance obtains the version information of the latest version software, if the update level is determined to be the second level, two buttons are arranged in an update prompting window displayed on an version update page, namely an immediate update button and a no-more-reminding button, a user can trigger the immediate update button, and the time of upgrading is manually triggered, namely the time when the user manually clicks the immediate update button is taken as the time of upgrading; when the user triggers the button 'no more remind', the updating prompt window can be minimized, when the user needs to update the software, the updating prompt window can be clicked again, the updating prompt window is displayed in a maximized mode, and the user can immediately update the software by clicking the button 'immediately update'.
That is to say, after the electrical appliance obtains the version information of the latest version of software, if the update level is determined to be the second level, the key identifier new message prompt may be set, and according to the new message prompt, the user is guided to perform the version update page, and the user may select immediate update according to the version information, or select no more prompt, so as to cancel the update.
It should be noted that, when the control for rejecting prompt triggering is detected, version information of the latest version software may also be configured in the version upgrade menu, where the version upgrade menu is used to manually trigger upgrade. Therefore, the user can open the version upgrading menu according to the self requirement subsequently, and manually upgrade the current version software or the original version software according to the latest version software so as to meet the updating requirements of different users.
As another possible implementation manner, after the electrical appliance obtains the version information of the latest version of software, if the update level is determined to be the second level, a new message prompt may be generated, and an update prompt window is displayed in response to a user operation on the new message prompt; the updating prompting window displays version information of the latest version software, a control for upgrading and a control for refusing prompting, and when the control for upgrading is detected to be triggered, the current moment is taken as the upgrading moment; and when detecting that the control used for rejecting prompting is triggered, displaying an upgrade time setting interface or an upgrade reservation window, and taking the target time selected by the user operation as the upgrade time.
Still taking the example of fig. 4, when the user clicks the "no more reminder" button, the user may be guided to enter the upgrade time setting interface, and the user may customize the upgrade time.
And step 204, at the upgrading time, upgrading the latest version software.
It should be noted that, the electrical appliance may automatically obtain the version information of the latest version of software from the server for remote upgrade when the electrical appliance is turned on each time, and when the user does not need to upgrade the software, for example, when the user triggers the "no more reminder" button in fig. 3 or fig. 4, the electrical appliance may also remind the user to upgrade when the electrical appliance is turned on subsequently, or the user may go to the version upgrade menu for manual upgrade by himself. Certainly, the electrical appliance may also obtain the version information of the latest version software from the server side at other time intervals for remote upgrade, and in addition, the user may also manually trigger to query the version information of the latest version software, which is not limited herein.
According to the software upgrading method for the electric appliance, forced upgrading is carried out when the updating level is the first level, so that the electric appliance can be prevented from being broken down, or the probability of safety accidents is reduced. When the updating level is in the equal second level, the user sets the upgrading time according to the self requirement and automatically upgrades at the upgrading time set by the user, so that the flexibility and the applicability of the method can be improved, and the individual upgrading requirements of different users can be met.
It should be added that the first point in this embodiment is that only by way of example, the update level may include a first level and a second level with high to low operation influence degrees, as a possible implementation manner, the update level may include a first level, a second level, a third level, …, and an nth level with high to low operation influence degrees, and the present application is not limited in particular.
The second point to be described is that, at the time of upgrading, when the latest version of software is upgraded, the start-stop key of the electrical appliance may be disabled, and the user configuration data and the user program may be backed up, if the upgrade is successful according to the installation package of the latest version of software, the latest version of software may be configured according to the user configuration data, and if the upgrade is unsuccessful according to the installation package of the latest version of software, the original version of software and the user program may be restored, and the original version of software may be configured according to the user configuration data, so as to ensure the normal use of the system. The above process is described in detail with reference to example three.
Fig. 5 is a schematic flowchart of a software upgrading method for an electrical appliance according to a third embodiment of the present application.
As shown in fig. 5, the software upgrading method of the appliance may include the steps of:
step 301, obtaining version information of the latest version software.
It should be noted that after the electrical appliance obtains the version information of the latest version software, the version information of the latest version software may be compared with the version information of the current version software or the original version software to determine whether the current version software or the original version software needs to be updated. Specifically, the current version software or the old version software needs to be upgraded only when the current version or the old version is lower than the latest version.
As an example, the display interface of the appliance may have a system version button, and the user may click the system version button to enable the appliance to obtain version information of the latest version of software from the server side.
Further, the electrical appliance may also determine whether the version information of the latest version of software is successfully acquired, and if the version information of the latest version of software is not acquired, prompt information may be displayed, for example, a software version page may be entered, a prompt to detect a version failure is given, and a retry is requested after a network connection. If the version information of the latest version software is successfully acquired, judging whether the current version or the original version is lower than the latest version, if not, entering a software version page to prompt that the current version or the original version is the latest version, and if so, entering the software version page to prompt that the latest version software exists, and displaying the version information of the latest version software, for example, referring to fig. 3 or fig. 4, the version number, software updating contents, various controllable controls and the like can be displayed.
Step 302, determining an upgrading time according to the updating level in the version information; wherein, the update level is used for indicating the influence degree of the software update content on the operation of the electrical appliance.
The execution process of step 302 may refer to the above embodiments, which are not described herein.
Step 303, disabling the start-stop key of the electrical appliance at the upgrading time.
In the embodiment of the application, when the software is upgraded, the electric appliance can shield or forbid the start-stop key so as to avoid interrupting the updating process of the software.
Step 304, user configuration data and user programs for the appliance are backed up.
In the embodiment of the application, the user configuration data may include user-defined information, or information set by a user in a personalized manner.
In the embodiment of the application, when software is upgraded, user configuration data and a user program can be backed up, so that normal use of a system is ensured after the software is updated.
