Description

Timing starting method and display device

Technical Field

The invention relates to the field of display equipment, in particular to a timing starting method and display equipment.

Background

The display device may provide a user with a desired functional service, such as a timing power on/off service, and in some application scenarios, for example, before the user switches the display device to a standby state, the user may select to set a timing power on, that is, set a fixed power on time, and if the display device detects that the power on time specified by the user is reached in the standby state, the display device is automatically controlled to power on. By the timed starting service, the display equipment is started regularly and automatically according to the preset time of the user, and the user does not need to manually input the starting operation.

At present, the regular startup service of the display device mainly depends on the startup time set by the user, and the startup mode lacks flexibility, for example, after the display device is started up regularly, no user exists in an environmental scene, so that the display device maintains a startup state under the condition of no watching and operation by people, which is not beneficial to energy conservation and power saving of the display device.

Disclosure of Invention

In order to solve the technical problems in the background art, the invention provides a timing startup method and a display device, which identify whether a user exists in a scene of the display device through Bluetooth so as to decide feasibility of timing startup.

A first aspect of the present application provides a display device, comprising:

starting a timing startup mode according to a timing startup task set by a user;

switching the display device to a standby state when a standby operation input by a user is received;

starting a Bluetooth scanning function when detecting that the current time reaches the starting time indicated by the timing starting task;

if the Bluetooth equipment is scanned, controlling the display equipment to start up;

and if the Bluetooth equipment is not scanned, controlling the display equipment to keep the standby state and not executing a starting program.

In the technical scheme provided by the first aspect of the present application, a user sets a timed power-on task, including setting a power-on time, then a controller automatically starts a timed power-on mode, then the user operates a display device to stand by, the display device monitors a clock in real time in a standby state to obtain the current time of the system, when the current time reaches the power-on time indicated by the timed power-on task, the conventional timed power-on directly controls the display device to start up, and in this application, a bluetooth scanning function is first started to scan all bluetooth devices with bluetooth functions started in a certain area around the display device, and the bluetooth devices are electronic mobile devices supporting the bluetooth functions, such as smart phones, tablets, bluetooth headsets, and the like. Every bluetooth equipment all has self equipment sign, after display device starts the bluetooth scanning function, can scan and read the equipment sign of the bluetooth equipment who has opened bluetooth function, through reading equipment sign, confirm whether scan bluetooth equipment, and discern bluetooth equipment, because in this application come decision-making based on bluetooth user identification regularly whether start, therefore the user sets up regularly after the task of starting up, can manually open bluetooth equipment's bluetooth function, perhaps send instruction signal to bluetooth equipment by display device, in order to instruct bluetooth equipment to open local bluetooth function automatically. If the Bluetooth equipment is scanned, the situation that people exist in the scene is indicated, and the display equipment is controlled to be started; if no bluetooth device is scanned, that is, no mobile bluetooth device with bluetooth function is started in the scene, it is said that there is no person in the scene, and in order to avoid the power consumption problem caused by the display device being watched by no person and kept in the power-on state during operation, the display device can be kept in the standby state without being powered on, thereby achieving the purpose of saving energy and power.

In a first exemplary implementation manner of the first aspect, the controller is further configured to perform:

reading the target equipment identification of the scanned Bluetooth equipment;

comparing the target device identification with a device registration list, wherein the device registration list comprises device identifications of Bluetooth devices which are successfully registered;

if the equipment registration list comprises the target equipment identification, controlling the display equipment to start up;

and if the target equipment identification is not included in the equipment registration list, controlling the display equipment to keep the standby state and not executing a starting program.

In a first exemplary implementation manner, the method is equivalent to using an equipment registration list to authenticate the triggering and timing startup of the bluetooth equipment, and if a target equipment identifier is in the equipment registration list and indicates that the currently scanned bluetooth equipment is registered before and the bluetooth equipment has the authority of triggering startup, the display equipment is allowed to be controlled to be started up; if the registered device list does not include the target device identifier, it is indicated that the bluetooth device corresponding to the target device identifier is not registered and does not have the permission to trigger the power-on, so the power-on is not executed, and the display device is kept in a standby state. Because the Bluetooth equipment is used by the user, the user is identified and authenticated through a Bluetooth equipment registration mechanism, and the safety of the timing starting operation of the display equipment is further improved.

In a second exemplary implementation manner of the first aspect, the controller is further configured to perform:

before starting the timing starting mode, controlling a display to display a first prompt popup window; the first prompt popup window comprises first inquiry information, a first confirmation control and a first cancellation control, wherein the first inquiry information is used for inquiring whether a user starts Bluetooth scanning and verification when the user starts up at fixed time;

if the clicking operation of the first confirmation control is received, closing the first prompt popup window, starting a timing starting mode and setting a first indication identifier, wherein the first indication identifier is used for indicating that the Bluetooth scanning function is started when the current time reaches the starting time;

if the first prompt popup window is closed after the clicking operation of the first cancel control is received, a timing starting mode is started, a second indication mark is set, the second indication mark is used for indicating that the Bluetooth scanning function is not started when the current time reaches the starting time, and the display equipment is directly controlled to start.

A second exemplary implementation manner provides an inquiry mechanism for whether to start the bluetooth device triggering timing startup function, after a user checks first inquiry information, if the user clicks a first confirmation control, a first indication identifier is set, and subsequently when startup time is reached, the controller recognizes the first indication identifier, and can know that the bluetooth device triggering timing startup function is started, and then the bluetooth scanning function is started; if the user clicks the first cancel control, a second indication mark is set, and then when the starting time is reached, the controller recognizes the second indication mark, so that the situation that the function of triggering the timing starting of the Bluetooth device is not started can be known, the Bluetooth scanning function is not started, and the display device is directly controlled to start, namely, a conventional timing starting mode is started. The implementation mode provides free selection between the Bluetooth device trigger timing starting mode and the conventional timing starting mode for a user so as to adapt to the requirements of the user and an actual scene.

In a third exemplary implementation manner of the first aspect, after the setting of the first indication flag, the controller is further configured to perform:

controlling the display to display a second prompt popup window; the second prompt popup window comprises the equipment registration list, prompt information for prompting a user to select Bluetooth equipment with the trigger starting authority from the equipment registration list, a second confirmation control and a second cancellation control;

recording a first device set submitted by a user through the second prompt popup; the first device set comprises device identifications of Bluetooth devices selected from the device registration list by a user, the first device set submitted when the second confirmation control is triggered is a subset of the device registration list, and the first device set submitted when the second cancellation control is triggered is an empty set.

In a fourth exemplary implementation manner of the first aspect, after the bluetooth scan function is started, the controller is further configured to perform:

comparing the target device identification to the first set of devices;

if the first equipment set comprises the target equipment identification, controlling the display equipment to start;

and if the first equipment set does not comprise the target equipment identification, controlling the display equipment to keep the standby state and not executing a starting-up program.

The third and fourth exemplary implementations provide further restrictions on the bluetooth device authorization, and after the user selects to start the bluetooth device triggering the timed power-on mode, the user further designates the object device triggering power-on from the registered bluetooth devices through the second prompt popup window to obtain the first device set. The first device set may be an empty set or a non-empty subset of the device registration list, e.g., if the user clicks the second confirmation control after selecting at least one bluetooth device, the first device set is an empty set subset; and if the user clicks the second confirmation control after the null selection, or the user finally clicks the second cancel control regardless of the selection, the first device set is the null set. If the first device set comprises the target device identification, the Bluetooth device specified/authorized in advance by the user is scanned, the specified user is considered to be in the scene of the display device, and the display device is started; if the first device set does not include the target device identifier, the display device is not started up if no designated/authorized user exists in the scene of the display device, and the display device is kept in a standby state. The user further designates the Bluetooth equipment with the trigger starting authority from the registered Bluetooth equipment, so that the safety of the timing starting operation of the display equipment is further improved, and the privacy of the user is protected.

In a fifth exemplary implementation manner of the first aspect, the controller is further configured to perform:

when the regular startup is finished under the condition that the equipment registration list comprises the target equipment identification, if the target equipment identification is inquired to have a corresponding signal source, controlling a display to display the signal source;

when the regular startup is finished under the condition that the equipment registration list comprises the target equipment identification, if the target equipment identification is inquired to have no corresponding signal source, controlling a display to display a default startup page;

and controlling the display to display a default starting page when the starting is finished at fixed time under the condition that the Bluetooth scanning function is not started.

A fifth exemplary implementation manner provides how to determine UI display content when the timed power-on is completed, and since the bluetooth device is closely related to the user, the corresponding relationship between the device identifier and the signal source may be set according to the preference of the user, where the signal source includes but is not limited to an application program (APP), a physical channel (such as a TV channel, HDMI, USB, etc.), a local file, and the like, for example, the user a sets the signal source corresponding to the smart phone 1 used by the user a to be YouTube. The method at least comprises two timing startup modes, wherein the first mode is timing startup triggered under the condition that the device registration list comprises the target device identification, and the second mode is conventional timing startup under the condition that the Bluetooth scanning function is not started. For the first mode, if the target equipment identifier has a corresponding signal source, the UI starts and displays the signal source when the startup is completed, and if the user does not set the corresponding signal source for the target equipment identifier, a default startup page, such as a homepage, is displayed when the startup is completed; for the mode two, the mode is a conventional timing startup mode, and the UI displays a default startup page when startup is completed. The embodiment realizes the self-adaptive matching of the user interface after the starting according to the equipment identification of the Bluetooth equipment, so that the UI display during the completion of the starting is more in line with the user interest, and the user experience is improved.

In a sixth exemplary implementation manner of the first aspect, the controller is further configured to perform:

after a Bluetooth scanning function is started, acquiring a second device set, wherein the second device set comprises N target device identifications contained in the device registration list; wherein N is an integer greater than 1;

screening K target equipment identifications corresponding to the signal source from the second equipment set, wherein K is less than or equal to N;

sorting the screened K target equipment identifications according to the equipment priority specified in the equipment registration list to obtain a third equipment set;

and controlling a display to display a target signal source corresponding to the first target equipment identifier with the highest priority in the third equipment set.

In a sixth exemplary implementation manner, it is considered that there may be a plurality of bluetooth devices scanned by the display device, and the display device can only display one signal source when the power on is completed, so that after the third device set is screened out, the target signal source corresponding to the first target device identifier with the highest priority level is used as the signal source for starting the display when the power on is completed, thereby avoiding the problem of power on interface display collision in a multi-bluetooth device and multi-signal source scene.

In a seventh exemplary implementation manner of the first aspect, the controller is further configured to perform:

before starting a timing starting mode and setting a first indication identifier, controlling a display to display a third prompt popup window, wherein the third prompt popup window comprises second inquiry information, a registration control and a third cancellation control which are used for inquiring whether a Bluetooth device used by a user finishes registration;

if the click operation of the registration control is received, controlling a display to jump to a Bluetooth device registration page, updating the device registration list after the successful registration of the Bluetooth device is detected, starting a timing starting mode and setting the first indication identifier;

and if the click operation on the third cancel control is received, closing the third prompt popup window, starting a timing starting mode and setting the first indication mark.

In a seventh exemplary implementation manner, considering that when the current user starts the function of triggering power-on based on bluetooth scanning identification, the bluetooth device used by the current user may not be registered yet, the user is asked whether the bluetooth device used by the user is registered through the third prompt popup. If the user has registered the Bluetooth device before, clicking a third cancel control; if the user does not register before, clicking the registration control, the display automatically jumps to a bluetooth device registration page, the user can register the bluetooth device and customize a corresponding signal source according to the guidance of the registration page, after the bluetooth device is successfully registered, the device registration list is updated, namely a new item of registration information of the bluetooth device is added, and then the timing startup mode is started and the first indication identifier is set. In the embodiment, the device registration inquiry is carried out on the current user, so that the problem that the timing task has to be stopped because the Bluetooth device used by the task initiator is not registered is avoided, and the accuracy and the feasibility of triggering the timing starting function to be executed by the Bluetooth device are improved.

In an eighth exemplary implementation manner of the first aspect, the controller is further configured to perform:

acquiring a first priority set by the user on the selected plurality of Bluetooth devices through the second prompt popup window;

the first set of devices is ordered according to the first priority.

In an eighth exemplary implementation manner, the first device set may include two or more bluetooth devices, so that when the user specifies multiple bluetooth devices with permissions in the second prompt popup window, the priorities of the bluetooth devices are simultaneously customized, so that when subsequent power-on is completed, a decision is made as to which target device in the first device set identifies that the corresponding signal source will be started and displayed by using the priorities.

A second aspect of the present application provides a timing boot method, including:

The above embodiments describe the hardware/software architecture and functional implementation of the display device. In an application scenario, a user can set a timed startup task in a display device, and conventionally, under the condition that a non-complete machine of the display device is powered off (i.e., a power supply is pulled out), the timed startup task is to automatically control the display device to be started at a fixed time point specified by the user, but the method does not consider whether a person is in place in the scenario during the timed startup, so that the display device is always in a startup state when the person is not watching and operating, and the energy saving and the power saving of the display device in a home scenario are not facilitated, so that the flexibility of the conventional timed startup service and the adaptability of the scenario are poor.

In order to overcome the defects of the conventional timing startup service, the application provides a timing startup mechanism, and whether a user exists in a scene of a display device is identified through Bluetooth, so that the feasibility of timing startup is decided. In an exemplary implementation, fig. 5 illustrates a timed boot method, where an execution subject of the method is a controller 250, and the method includes the following program steps:

and step S01, starting a timing startup mode according to the timing startup task set by the user.

In an exemplary implementation manner, a user may enter a timed boot setting page through an entry provided in a setting menu, set a boot time, and then confirm a timed boot task, thereby starting a timed boot mode.

In step S02, the display device is switched to the standby state when the standby operation input by the user is received.

And step S03, when the current time reaches the starting time indicated by the timing starting task, starting the Bluetooth scanning function.

Step S04, determine whether a bluetooth device is scanned. If the bluetooth device is scanned, step S05 is executed, otherwise, step S06 is executed.

And step S05, controlling the display device to be powered on.

And step S06, controlling the display device to keep the standby state and not executing the startup program.

In an exemplary implementation, a user may use a bluetooth device, which is an electronic mobile device that supports bluetooth functionality, including but not limited to a smartphone, a tablet, a bluetooth headset, and the like. After a user holds or wears the Bluetooth device, the Bluetooth device can also generate synchronous shift and even transfer of a spatial scene along with the movement of the body position of the user. After the Bluetooth device starts the Bluetooth function of the Bluetooth device, the Bluetooth device can be scanned by the display device.

In an exemplary implementation, the display device has a bluetooth scanning function, and after the bluetooth scanning function is started, the display device can scan all bluetooth devices with bluetooth enabled in a certain area around the display device and read device identifiers (named as target device identifiers in this application for convenience of distinguishing) of the scanned bluetooth devices, for example, bluetooth device IDs, preset names, and the like. The display device distinguishes the Bluetooth device by identifying the device identification, and the display device can confirm the identity of the user of the Bluetooth device by scanning and reading the target device identification as the Bluetooth device is closely related to the user.

In an exemplary implementation manner, since the present application determines whether to start up at a certain time based on bluetooth user identification, after setting a task of starting up at a certain time, for example, the user may manually start the bluetooth function of the bluetooth device, or the display device sends an indication signal to the corresponding bluetooth device to indicate the bluetooth device to automatically start up the bluetooth function of the display device, that is, it needs to be ensured that the bluetooth function of the bluetooth device specified by the user is started up and the display device supports scanning by the display device before the display device starts the bluetooth scanning function when the certain time is reached.

In an exemplary implementation manner, the display device detects a clock in a standby state to obtain current time of a system, and when it is detected that the current time reaches boot time, if a bluetooth device (i.e., having a target device identifier) is scanned, it indicates that a person is in a scene, the display device is controlled to boot; if no bluetooth device is scanned, that is, no bluetooth device with bluetooth function turned on in the scene, indicates that there is no person in the scene, in order to avoid the power consumption problem caused by the display device being watched by no person and being kept in the power-on state when no person operates, the power-on program is not executed, so that the display device is still kept in the standby state, and the display device is controlled to be turned on when the power-on operation input by the user is received subsequently, thereby achieving the purpose of saving energy and power.

In an exemplary implementation manner, a scanning area of the display device may be set according to actual applications, for example, the scanning area is set to cover the whole home scene, the user a is at home and starts a bluetooth function of the bluetooth device 1 used by the user a, when it is detected that the current time reaches the startup time, the display device starts the bluetooth scanning function, and if the bluetooth device 1 is scanned, that is, it is known that there is a user in the home scene, the whole device is controlled to start up; if the user a goes out with the bluetooth device 1, even if the bluetooth function of the bluetooth device 1 is always kept in an on state, since the bluetooth device 1 is separated from the scannable area of the display device, the display device cannot scan the bluetooth device 1, and the target device identifier cannot be read, it is considered that no person is at home, the display device stops the regular power-on, and keeps a self-standby state when the power-on operation is not received.

In an exemplary implementation manner, for example, the scanning area of the display device may also only cover the spatial scene where the display device is located, for example, the display device is installed in the living room, the scannable area of the bluetooth of the display device is appropriately reduced, so that the display device only scans whether the bluetooth device with the bluetooth function turned on is in the living room, thereby defining the activity area of the user in the living room, and if the scanning detects that there is a person in the living room, the display device is controlled to be turned on; if the scanning detects that no person is in the living room, the user may be in other rooms or not at home, and the timed startup can be stopped.

In the method example of fig. 5, it is not necessary to identify the bluetooth device and the user identity, and the timed power-on task is performed as long as the display device scans the bluetooth device in its bluetooth scanning area. However, in some application scenarios, a power-on error may occur, for example, in an actual home scenario, if no one is present, but the bluetooth scanning capability of the display device is strong, and the covered scanning area is large, a bluetooth device other than the home scenario, such as a bluetooth device that scans outside a door, on a building, below a building, or in an adjacent home and starts a bluetooth function, may be scanned, so that a power-on error may occur in the case of no one in the home scenario; for another example, the user prefers that the timed boot program is triggered and executed by a bluetooth device used by an internal member of the family, and if there is an external person in the home scene, the display device starts the bluetooth scanning function at the boot time, and boots after scanning the bluetooth device carried by the external person, the security and privacy of the use of the display device may be affected.

In some exemplary implementations, a device registration mechanism may be used to authorize the bluetooth device that triggers the timed power-on. The user accesses the registration page of the Bluetooth device through the appointed path/entrance, selects the device for scanning in the registration page of the Bluetooth device, the display device automatically starts the Bluetooth scanning function, displays the device identifications corresponding to all the currently scanned Bluetooth devices to the user in a list form, the user selects the Bluetooth device to be registered from the list, and then confirms the registration, thus finishing the registration process of the Bluetooth device. And after the Bluetooth equipment is successfully registered, the Bluetooth scanning function is closed.

Alternatively, when the bluetooth device is registered, a different name may be set for the bluetooth device, where the different name is different from the device identifier, for example, the device identifier is iPhone, and the user sets the different name as "person competing for electricity". The device identification is only displayed during registration, and is subsequently displayed and managed only for the alias, and the device identification is invisible and not modifiable after successful registration so as to protect the privacy and safety of the device used by the user, and the alias can be freely modified by the user. If the device identifier needs to be modified, the original registration information of the bluetooth device needs to be deleted, and the device identifier needs to be modified when the bluetooth device is re-registered.

In an exemplary implementation, a display device may maintain a device registration list and support updating, managing, and UI presentation of the device registration list. The device registration list records registration information of the successfully registered bluetooth device, and the registration information includes, but is not limited to, registration time, device identifier, and user-defined alias, identity information of a user to which the bluetooth device belongs, and the like, referring to the example in table 1 below. Recording date and time when the Bluetooth device is successfully registered as the registration time; the device identification is read when the display device scans the Bluetooth device, and the alias and the user identity are user-defined.

TABLE 1

In an exemplary implementation manner, each time the display device finishes registering one bluetooth device, newly adding registration information of one bluetooth device in a device registration list; if the single Bluetooth device fails, when the UI shows the device registration list, the registration information of the failed Bluetooth device can be grayed out, so that the user can know that the grayed Bluetooth device fails, and then the user can select to delete the failed registration information or re-register after deletion; if the device registration list comprises a plurality of registered Bluetooth devices, the user is supported to set priorities for the plurality of Bluetooth devices, and the device registration list can be sorted and refreshed according to the priorities.

In an exemplary implementation, the device registration list may be utilized to authenticate that the bluetooth device triggers the timed power-on, i.e., to identify whether the scanned bluetooth device has the authority to trigger the display device to execute the power-on program. And when the current time reaches the starting time, the display equipment starts a Bluetooth scanning function, and compares the target equipment identification of the scanned Bluetooth equipment with the equipment registration list. If the device registration list comprises the target device identification, which indicates that the currently scanned Bluetooth device is registered before and the Bluetooth device has the permission of triggering the start-up, the display device is allowed to be controlled to start up; on the contrary, if the device registration list does not include the target device identifier, it indicates that the currently scanned bluetooth device is not registered, and does not have the permission to trigger power-on, the display device does not execute the power-on program, and still maintains the standby state. Therefore, through the Bluetooth device registration mechanism, the permission verification of the Bluetooth device for triggering the startup is realized, and the safety of the display device for the timed startup operation is improved.

Taking table 1 above as an example, for example, only one target device identifier scanned and read by the display device is HuaWei P40, and comparing with the device registration list, if it is found that HuaWei P40 has been registered previously, the HuaWei P40 bluetooth device has the right to trigger power-on, and the display device can be switched to the power-on state; for another example, the target device identifier read by the display device is only Bluetooth-X, and Bluetooth-X is not recorded in the device registration list, which indicates that Bluetooth-X is not registered yet and does not have the authority to trigger power-on, then the display device suspends the timed power-on and keeps a standby state; for another example, the target device identifiers read by the display device are iPhone and Beat Studio buses, and although the Beat Studio buses bluetooth device is not registered, because the iPhone is registered, the boot program can still be executed; for another example, the target device identifiers read by the display device are iPhone and airpots 2, both bluetooth devices are registered and belong to authorized bluetooth devices, and therefore, power-on is performed.

In an exemplary implementation manner, a scheme for matching an identified bluetooth user with an initiator of a timed startup task to decide startup feasibility is further provided, optionally, the user may input a user identity in addition to the startup time on a timed startup setting page, and after confirming the timed task, start a timed startup mode in which the startup time and the identity of the task initiator are recorded, that is, a user is recorded to set a certain timed startup. When the current time reaches the starting time, according to the target equipment identification read by the display equipment, searching a target user identity corresponding to the target equipment identification in an equipment registration list, comparing the target user identity with a task initiator, and if the target user identity is determined to be the same user, controlling the display equipment to start; and if the two users are not the same user, indicating that the user initiating the timed startup task is not in the home scene of the display equipment, stopping the timed startup. According to the embodiment, the starting is executed when the task initiator with the timed starting requirement is located in a home scene, the situation that the Bluetooth device used by the user who does not require the timed starting triggers the display device to start is avoided, and the accuracy and the matching performance of the timed starting execution of the display device are further improved. In the method, the target equipment identification read by scanning is used for identifying the user identity and deciding the feasibility of starting up at fixed time, and actual Bluetooth connection does not need to be established.

Taking the example of Table 1, for example, a son in a family member may want to start a game application at 2021/07/2916: 00 and initiate a timed power-up at 2021/07/2916: 00. When 2021/07/2916: 00 is reached, the display device starts scanning Bluetooth equipment, scans and reads a target device identifier to be an iPhone, identifies the user identity corresponding to the iPhone as a son through a device registration list, namely identifies that the Bluetooth user and a timed startup task initiator are the same person (namely the son), and controls the display device to start up after the son is in place and ready for timed startup; for another example, the target device identifier read by the display device is ipad 8, although the ipad 8 is recorded in the device registration list, the user identity corresponding to the ipad 8 is mom, and the user identity is different from the initiator of the timed startup task, and the timed startup is stopped; for another example, the target device identifier read by the display device is Bluetooth-X, and Bluetooth-X is not registered and added to the device registration list, and if the initiator son of the timed startup task is not at home, the timed startup is terminated.

In the above embodiments, the display device reads the target device identifier by scanning the bluetooth device, and performs authentication and user identity identification by using the target device identifier, thereby deciding the feasibility of starting up at regular time, and defining the processing mode as mode one. In an actual scenario, for example, a user does not have an electronic device supporting a bluetooth function, and for example, the bluetooth device is powered off, lost or failed, and for example, the user does not want to maintain the bluetooth function to be turned on for a long time, which may cause the user to not expect or not support the first execution mode, but only according to the conventional timed power-on mode, when the display device recognizes that the current time reaches the power-on time, the display device is directly controlled to be normally powered on, and the processing mode is defined as a mode two, that is, the execution mode of the timed power-on task includes the mode one and the mode two, so the application further provides for the user to select the first execution mode or the second execution mode according to actual conditions.

In an exemplary implementation, a timed power-on settings page is illustrated in fig. 6(a), which includes, but is not limited to, a power-on time setting control, an input control, a mode selection control, a confirmation control, and a cancel control. The user sets and adjusts the starting time by operating the starting time setting control, the starting time comprises specific date and time, namely the time unit relates to year, month, day, hour, minute and second, and the starting time is a necessary item; the user inputs the user identity initiating the timed startup task through the input control, and the user identity is a selection filling item; the mode selection control supports the user to select one of the first mode and the second mode, and in an alternative implementation, referring to fig. 6(a), a display is shown, for example, "please select whether to enable bluetooth scanning and authentication when powering on regularly? If the user clicks the 'yes' control, the mode one is selected, if the user clicks the 'no' control, the mode two is selected, and mode selection is a necessary option. After the setting of the related items of the timed startup task is finished, the user clicks a confirmation control to confirm the initiated timed startup task, and then a corresponding timed startup mode is started; if the user clicks the cancel control, the generation of the timed starting task can be cancelled, and the timed starting mode is kept in a closed state. And after the user clicks the confirmation control or cancels the control, closing the timing starting setting page, and jumping to the timing task list page, wherein if the user clicks the confirmation control, task information of a timing starting task is newly added in the timing task list interface.

In an exemplary implementation, as another timed-boot setting page is illustrated in fig. 6(b), the difference from the example in fig. 6(a) is that a mode selection control is not set in the example in fig. 6(b), and only includes conventional setting items, that is, a required startup time item and a user identity option item, and if a user clicks a cancel control, that is, a timed-boot task is not initiated, the user does not need to be asked to select which execution mode of the timed-boot task is selected; if the user clicks the confirmation control, namely successfully initiates a timing starting task, the user can be asked what mode to select in a popup window mode.

In an exemplary implementation manner, after the user clicks the confirmation control in fig. 6(b), the controller displays a first prompt popup as illustrated in fig. 7, where the first prompt popup includes the first query information, the first confirmation control, and the first cancel control. The first inquiry information is used for inquiring whether a user starts up Bluetooth scanning and verification when starting up at a fixed time, namely, whether a mode I is adopted is inquired, if the user clicks a first confirmation control, a first prompt popup window is closed, the fixed time starting up mode is started, a first indication mark is set, the first indication mark is used for indicating that a Bluetooth scanning function is started up when the current time reaches the starting up time, and then the Bluetooth equipment is scanned and verified, namely, the execution mode of a fixed time starting up task is recorded by setting the first indication mark to be set as the mode I.

If the user clicks the first cancel control, the first prompt popup window is closed, the timing starting mode is started, a second indication mark is set, the second indication mark is used for indicating that the Bluetooth scanning function is not started when the current time reaches the starting time, the display device is directly controlled to be started normally, and the execution mode of recording the timing starting task by setting the second indication mark is set as the second mode. By means of the inquiry mechanism of the execution mode of the timed startup task, the user can freely select between a mode I and a mode II to adapt to the requirements of the user and actual scenes.

In an exemplary implementation manner, a flag bit may be set in the timed boot task, where the flag bit is used to indicate an execution mode of the timed boot task, for example, a value of the flag bit is set to 1 when the first indication flag is set, and a value of the flag bit is set to 0 when the second indication flag is set. When the starting-up time is up, the controller accesses the zone bit and reads the current value of the zone bit, namely, whether a Bluetooth scanning function is started to scan and verify the Bluetooth equipment or not can be determined according to the mode indicated by the current value.

In the foregoing embodiment, when the task initiator selects to execute the timed power-on task according to the mode one, the display device needs to start a bluetooth scanning function, scan the bluetooth device and verify the user identity, in some application scenarios, for example, the user B initiates a timed power-on task and selects the mode one, subsequently scans the device identifier of the bluetooth device 2, and when the device registration list is used for verification, finds that the bluetooth device 2 is not registered before, so that the timed power-on task initiated by the user B has to be terminated.

In an exemplary implementation, after the task initiator confirms the selection of the mode one through fig. 6(a) or fig. 7, the display displays a third prompt popup as shown in fig. 8, where the third prompt popup includes the second query information, the registration control, and a third cancel control. The second inquiry information is used for inquiring whether the Bluetooth equipment used by the user is registered or not, if the Bluetooth equipment of the task initiator is registered successfully before, the task initiator does not need to register repeatedly, clicks a third cancel control, closes a third prompt popup window, and starts a timing start-up mode and sets a first indication identifier; if the Bluetooth equipment of the task initiator is not registered, the user can click the registration control, the UI automatically jumps to a Bluetooth equipment registration page, the user can complete registration of the Bluetooth equipment according to guidance of the Bluetooth equipment registration page, after the Bluetooth equipment is successfully registered, an equipment registration list is updated, namely registration information of the Bluetooth equipment is newly added, then a timing startup mode is started and a first indication identifier is set, and when the task initiator performs subsequent Bluetooth scanning and verification, the timing startup is not stopped because the task initiator does not register the Bluetooth equipment. According to the embodiment, the accuracy of the execution of the timed startup function is improved and the feasibility and the efficiency of the timed startup task are improved through the equipment registration inquiry mechanism.

When the feasibility of the timed startup task is detected, the rule is that the startup program is executed when the bluetooth device/target device identifier is scanned in the scene, and the rule is that the scanned bluetooth device/target device identifier is further verified by using the device registration list. In other implementation manners, a third rule is provided, where the third rule is that the task initiator personally designates the bluetooth device having the trigger power-on permission, for example, the task initiator designates that the bluetooth device 1 and the bluetooth device 2 have the trigger power-on permission, and after the display device starts the bluetooth scanning function, if at least one of the bluetooth device 1 and the bluetooth device 2 is scanned, the display device is switched to the power-on state; if the display device does not scan the Bluetooth device 1 and the Bluetooth device 2, the authorization requirement of a task initiator is not met, a starting program is not executed, and the display device still keeps a standby state.

On the basis of the foregoing embodiments, in a rule three exemplary implementation manner, after the user selects mode one and the display device sets the first indication identifier, a second prompt popup window as illustrated in fig. 9 is displayed, where the second prompt popup window includes a device registration list, prompt information, a second confirmation control, and a second cancellation control. The device registration list in the second prompt popup at least comprises device identifications or alternative names of the Bluetooth devices, so that a task initiator can identify the Bluetooth devices and users to which the Bluetooth devices belong, and further appoint according to personal intention, each device identification/alternative name is provided with a corresponding selection control, optionally, a full selection control can be further arranged, and the user is supported to select all the Bluetooth devices in the list by one key by clicking the full selection control; the prompt information is used for prompting the task initiator to select the Bluetooth equipment with the trigger starting authority from the equipment registration list; the task initiator checks the prompt information, clicks the second confirmation control after the selection is completed, and confirms the Bluetooth equipment which is specified by the task initiator and has the trigger starting authority; and if the task initiator clicks the second cancel control, the permission of the Bluetooth equipment is not specified.

In an exemplary implementation manner, the controller records a first device set submitted by the user through the second prompt popup, where the first device set includes a device identifier having a trigger power-on right selected by the user from the registered device list, and with reference to the example in table 1, if the task initiator is a son in the family and authorizes two bluetooth devices, namely iPhone and airpots 2, the obtained first device set is { iPhone, airpots 2 }. Optionally, in order to protect privacy of the user equipment, when the UI displays the second prompt popup window, the device identifier may not be displayed or may be made invisible, and the user identifies and specifies the alternative name, for example, the son selects an electronic contestant and a movie fan, the device identifier corresponding to the electronic contestant is iPhone, the device identifier corresponding to the movie fan is airpots 2, that is, the first device set may be { iPhone, airpots 2} according to the correspondence between the device identifier and the alternative name.

In an exemplary implementation manner, after the user views the prompt information, at least one device identifier/alias is selected from the device registration list, and the second confirmation control is clicked, so that the submitted first device set is a non-empty subset of the device registration list; if the user does not select any equipment identification/alias (namely, idle selection) from the equipment registration list, clicking the second confirmation control, and then submitting the first equipment set as an empty set; and no matter whether the user selects the Bluetooth equipment with the trigger starting authority from the equipment registration list or not, the submitted first equipment set is an empty set as long as the user clicks the second cancel control.

In an exemplary implementation manner, after the display device starts a bluetooth scanning function, if a target device identifier is read, a first device set recorded by the display device is called, and the target device identifier is compared with the first device set. If the first device set comprises the target device identification, the fact that the scanned Bluetooth device in the current scene is authorized by the task initiator is indicated, the Bluetooth user passes the verification, and the display device is allowed to be started regularly; if the first device set does not include the target device identification, it is indicated that no user authorized by the task initiator is specified in the current scene, the starting program is not executed, and the display device keeps a standby state. And the rule III supports that the user further designates the Bluetooth equipment with the starting triggering authority from the registered Bluetooth equipment on the basis of the rule II, so that whether the timed starting task is executed or not is more consistent with the intention of a task initiator, the execution safety of the timed starting task is further improved, and the maintenance of the privacy of the user is facilitated. It should be noted that the rule for determining whether the timed startup task is executed is not limited to the rule one to rule three provided in the present application, and the authorization manner for the user to trigger the timed startup of the bluetooth device is also not limited.

In an exemplary implementation, since the bluetooth device is closely related to the user, and each user has his own viewing preference, after the bluetooth device is scanned and verified, the start-up picture displayed by the display at the time of completion of start-up can be determined according to the bluetooth device triggering timed start-up and the user identity to which the bluetooth device belongs,

in an exemplary implementation manner, referring to table 1, when a user registers a bluetooth device, not only the name and the user identity of the user-defined bluetooth device but also the user customizing a signal source is supported, that is, the corresponding relationship between the device identifier and the signal source is set, and after the bluetooth device is successfully registered, the user is also supported to modify the alias, the user identity and the signal source. The signal source includes but is not limited to application program (APP), physical channel including but not limited to TV channel, HDMI, USB, etc., and local file including but not limited to video file, audio-video file, image, text, etc.

In an exemplary implementation manner, for the mode one, if the target device identifier is read, whether the target device identifier has a corresponding signal source is queried, and if the target device identifier has the corresponding signal source, the signal source is displayed when the start-up is completed; and if the target equipment identification does not have the corresponding signal source, displaying a default starting page when the starting is finished. In the second mode, because the bluetooth scanning and the identification verification are not started, the mobile terminal is directly and normally started, and therefore a default starting page is displayed when the starting is finished. Alternatively, the default boot page may be a home page or other preset page. The embodiment realizes the self-adaptive matching of the user interface after the starting according to the equipment identification of the Bluetooth equipment, so that the UI display during the completion of the starting is more in line with the preference and interest of the user, and the user experience is better.

Taking table 1 as an example, for device identification HuaWei P40, as dad in family members prefers to watch sports, it sets the signal source corresponding to HuaWei P40 as CCTV-5 (belonging to TV channel), and when starting is triggered by HuaWei P40, the display device directly displays the CCTV-5 channel when the starting is completed; for another example, children in family members prefer electric competition and movies, the children set a signal source corresponding to the iPhone as the Rong APP, when the iPhone triggers the startup, the display device directly starts the Rong APP when the startup is completed, and displays an application page of the Rong APP; for another example, if a mother in family members does not set a signal source corresponding to the ipad 8, the ipad 8 triggers the startup and displays a default startup page when the startup is completed.

In an exemplary implementation manner, according to the second rule, after the display device starts the bluetooth scanning function, a total of M target device identifiers are read, and are combined to obtain a scanning device set; and comparing the M target equipment identifications in the scanning equipment set with the equipment registration list respectively, filtering N target equipment identifications contained in the equipment registration list from the scanning equipment set, wherein N is less than or equal to M, and combining to obtain a second equipment set, wherein the second equipment set is an equipment identification set of the Bluetooth equipment with the trigger starting permission. If N is equal to 1, it indicates that only one Bluetooth device triggers the power-on operation of the display device, and the signal source corresponding to the only authorized Bluetooth device identifier is displayed when the power-on is completed; if N is an integer greater than 1, it indicates that there are multiple bluetooth devices that can trigger the display device to perform the power-on operation, which easily causes a conflict in the signal source playing among multiple devices. For example, a scene is scanned to have bluetooth devices 2 and 3, and both bluetooth devices are registered and have a trigger power-on permission, a signal source corresponding to the bluetooth device 2 is channel-10, and a signal source corresponding to the bluetooth device 3 is YouTube, because the display device can only display a single-channel signal source generally, the channel-10 and the YouTube cannot be displayed simultaneously when the display device is powered on, that is, there is a signal source playing conflict problem, and it is necessary to decide which channel signal source to display.

Therefore, for the case that N is greater than 1 target device identifier in the second device set, in an exemplary implementation manner, K target device identifiers corresponding to signal sources are further screened from the second device set, where K is less than or equal to N, then the screened K target device identifiers are sorted according to the device priority specified in the device registration list to obtain a third device set, a signal source corresponding to a first target device identifier with the highest priority in the third device set is used as a target signal source, and a display is controlled to display the target signal source separately, so that the problem of display conflict of a power-on interface in a multi-bluetooth device and multi-signal-source configuration scene is avoided.

Taking table 1 as an example, when the display device detects that the boot-up time is reached, the Bluetooth scanning function is started, and 5 target device identifiers, which are HuaWei P40, ipad 8, iPhone, AirPods2, and Bluetooth-X, are scanned and read, that is, the scanning device set is { HuaWei P40, ipad 8, iPhone, AirPods2, and Bluetooth-X }, the scanning device set is matched with the device registration list, 4 registered Bluetooth devices are screened out, the second device set is { HuaWei P40, ipad 8, iPhone, and AirPods 2}, and the unregistered Bluetooth-X is filtered out. Further, 3 target device identifications corresponding to the signal sources are screened from the second device set, which are respectively HuaWei P40, airpots 2 and iPhone, and ipad 8 is not provided with the corresponding signal source, so that the impact on the image of the computer is not caused, and ipad 8 is filtered out. In some examples, the device registration list may be sorted according to device priorities set by the user, for example, in table 1, the device registrations are sorted according to descending priorities, that is, the lower the serial number of the bluetooth device is, the higher the priority is, after HuaWei P40, airpots 2 and iPhone are sorted according to priority, a third device set { HuaWei P40, iPhone, airpots 2} is obtained, the first target device with the highest priority in the third device set is identified as HuaWei P40, then the signal source CCTV-5 corresponding to HuaWei P40 becomes the target signal source, and after the display device is powered on, only CCTV-5 is displayed, neither royal APP corresponding to iPhone nor royal APP corresponding to airpots 2 is displayed.

Aiming at the third rule, the problem of startup picture conflict under a multi-device multi-source scene can be avoided according to the priority. In an exemplary implementation manner, the second prompt pop-up window supports a user to set priorities (named as first priorities for convenience of distinguishing) for a plurality of selected bluetooth devices, then S target device identifiers corresponding to signal sources are screened from the first device set, the screened S target device identifiers are sorted according to the first priorities to obtain a fourth device set, the signal source corresponding to the first target device identifier with the highest priority in the fourth device set is used as the target signal source, and then the target signal source is displayed when the power-on is completed.

In an exemplary implementation manner, referring to the second prompt popup illustrated in fig. 9, each device identifier/alias included in the device registration list further has a corresponding up-control, the up-control is used to adjust the priority of the bluetooth device, and if the user clicks the up-control once, the priority of the bluetooth device corresponding to the up-control is raised by one level.

The first priority is compared with the device priority indicated in the device registration list, the device priority adopted by the device registration list may be the same or different in the ordering, taking table 1 as an example, the device priority adopted by the device registration list is HuaWei P40 > ipad 8 > iPhone > airpots 2, assuming that the task initiator specifies that HuaWei P40, ipad 8 and iPhone have the trigger power-on permission in the second prompt popup window, and setting the first priority to iPhone > HuaWei P40 > ipad 8 (different from the device priority order), screening out that HuaWei P40 and iPhone have corresponding signal sources, the fourth device set obtained according to the first priority ordering is { iPhone, HuaWei P40}, and the first target device identifier with the highest priority in the fourth device set is iPhone, then only displaying the royal glory after the device is powered on, and not displaying CCTV-5 APP.

Referring to the foregoing embodiments, in an exemplary implementation manner, fig. 10 illustrates another timed boot method, where an execution subject of the method is a controller 250, and the method includes the following program steps:

and step S101, starting a timing startup mode according to a timing startup task set by a user.

Step S102, when receiving the standby operation input by the user, switching the display device to the standby state.

Step S103, detecting whether the current time reaches the starting time. If the starting time is up, executing step S104; if the boot time is not reached, the process continues to step S103.

Step S104, judging whether to start Bluetooth scanning and verification. Optionally, accessing a flag bit preset by the timed startup task, reading a current value of the flag bit, and if the current value is the first indication identifier, determining to start bluetooth scanning and verification, executing step S105; otherwise, if the current value is the second indication flag, step S112 is executed.

Step S105, the bluetooth scan function is started.

And step S106, verifying whether the scanned target Bluetooth equipment has the trigger starting authority. If the scanned target Bluetooth device has the authority, executing step S107; if the scanned target bluetooth device does not have the authority, or any bluetooth device is not scanned, step S111 is executed.

And step S107, controlling the display device to be started.

And step S108, detecting whether the target Bluetooth equipment has a corresponding target signal source or not when the starting is finished. If yes, go to step S109, otherwise go to step S110.

And step S109, controlling the display to display the target signal source.

Step S110, controlling the display to display a default boot page.

Step S111, controlling the display device to keep in a standby state without executing the boot program.

Step S112, the bluetooth scanning function is not started, and the display device is directly controlled to be powered on.

It should be noted that the UI shown in the drawings and embodiments of the present application is only exemplary, and particularly, the UI design and application in an actual scene are subject to the standard. In addition, based on the processing mechanism of the related mode of the timed startup task, the timed startup method and the UI interaction display can be appropriately modified, adjusted and expanded to adapt to the implementation of different scenes, and are not limited to the examples of the embodiment of the present application.
