and when the frequency is judged to be less than the frequency threshold value, re-executing the operation of sending the target heartbeat inquiry command to the target equipment.

In this alternative embodiment, the number threshold may be 1 or 2, and this alternative embodiment is not limited.

As can be seen, in this optional embodiment, when it is determined that the response condition fed back by the target device of the type of query is used to indicate that the response information reported by the target device is not received within the specified time period, it is further automatically determined whether the number of times that the target device is queried exceeds a determined number threshold, if so, the current state of the target device is marked as an offline state, and if not, the target heartbeat query instruction is retransmitted to determine the current state of the target device, so that the accuracy and reliability of determining the current state of the target device can be improved.

In yet another optional embodiment, analyzing the online status of the target device according to the response status fed back by the target device and the type of the target device includes:

when the type of the target equipment is a monitoring type and when the response condition fed back by the target equipment is used for indicating that response information of the target equipment is received in a first preset time period, marking the current state of the target equipment as an online state;

and when the type of the target equipment is a monitoring type and the response condition fed back by the target equipment is used for indicating that the response information of the target equipment is not received in a first preset time period, determining that the current state of the target equipment is in an off-line state.

Therefore, when the number of the devices needing to determine the online state is multiple, the devices can be clearly distinguished through the content included in the response condition of each device, and the more the content included in the response condition of the device is, the more the regional accuracy of the device is favorably improved, so that the determination accuracy and the reliability of the online state of each device are improved.

In this optional embodiment, optionally, after the current state of the target device is determined, the heartbeat counter of the target device is reset, and the operation of decrementing the heartbeat counter of the target device to the preset value of 0 every second preset time interval is executed again, so as to know the real-time real state of the target device.

As can be seen, when the optional embodiment determines that the type of the target device is the monitoring type, the optional embodiment is directly used to indicate that the received or non-received response information reported by the target device is received within a specified time period according to the received response condition to determine the current state of the target device, so that the accuracy and efficiency of determining the current state of the target device can be improved.

In this alternative embodiment, when the current state of the target device changes from the online state to the offline state or from the offline state to the online state, it is determined that the target device has flipped.

Therefore, when the current state of the target device is judged to be the online state, the optional embodiment further judges whether the target device is turned over or not, and if yes, sends the real information of the online state of the target device to the user terminal, so that the influence on the performance of the device, the occupation of the storage space of the user terminal and the influence on the use of the user terminal by the user due to the heating of the online state detection device caused by the too frequent sending times of the real information of the online state of the device can be reduced.

In this optional embodiment, optionally, when it is determined that the value is smaller than the importance threshold, the process is ended.

In this optional embodiment, optionally, the information corresponding to the target device includes, but is not limited to, at least one of a usage frequency of the target device within a certain period of time (e.g., within 30 days of forward calculation of the current date), a usage duration of the target device within a certain period of time, a degree of dependence of the user on the target device, and current environment information. The current environment information includes one or more of current ambient light intensity, current ambient humidity, and current ambient temperature. The degree of dependence of the user on the target device may be predetermined or determined according to the current situation of the user, where the current situation of the user includes the physical situation of the user and/or the task arrangement of the user. Therefore, the more the information corresponding to the target device comprises, the better the analysis accuracy of the importance of the target device is improved, and the accuracy of sending the real information of the target device is improved.

Therefore, in the optional embodiment, when it is determined that the target device is not turned over, but when it is determined that the importance of the target device is high, the real information that the target device is in the online state is still sent to the user terminal, so that the user can know the situation of the concerned target device and enrich the intelligent function of the online state detection device, the user can further control the target device accurately, and the experience of the user is further improved.

judging whether the frequency is greater than or equal to a determined frequency threshold value, and determining that the current state of the target equipment is in an off-line state when the judgment result is yes;

and, the method further comprises:

and when the frequency is judged to be smaller than the frequency threshold value, re-executing the operation of sending the target heartbeat inquiry instruction to the target equipment.

5. The method according to claim 1, wherein when the type of the target device is the listening type, the analyzing the online status of the target device according to the response fed back by the target device and the type of the target device includes:

6. The method for detecting the online status of the device according to any one of claims 1 to 5, wherein the method further comprises:

7. The method of online status detection of a device of claim 6, the method further comprising:

executing the operation of sending the information that the target equipment is in the online state to the determined user terminal;

and judging whether the current state of the target equipment is turned over, and executing the step of sending the information that the target equipment is in the online state to the determined user terminal when the current state of the target equipment is judged to be turned over.

8. The method for detecting the online status of the device according to any one of claims 1 to 5, wherein the method further comprises:

when judging that the current state does not exist, marking the current state of each device as an online state in the device information table;

when at least one response condition is judged to exist and is used for indicating the equipment which does not respond to the heartbeat inquiry command, determining the response condition to be used for indicating the inquiry frequency of each equipment which does not respond to the heartbeat inquiry command, judging whether the response condition to be used for indicating whether the inquiry frequency of each equipment which does not respond to the heartbeat inquiry command is larger than or equal to the determined inquiry frequency threshold value, when the judgment result is yes, marking the response condition to be used for indicating that the current state of each equipment which does not respond to the heartbeat inquiry command is an off-line state, and when the judgment result is yes, independently broadcasting the heartbeat inquiry command to each equipment which is used for indicating that the heartbeat inquiry command is not responded.

9. The method of online status detection of a device of claim 7, the method further comprising:

10. An apparatus for detecting an online status of a device, the apparatus comprising:
