Abstract

Method for matching a command transmitter and a command receiver forming part of a group of several command transmitters and receivers, communicating via the same protocol. Said method has the following steps: an initiating event is detected by the command receiver or receivers to be matched; the detecting receivers receive a frame containing identification information; detection of a mechanical action applied to a mobile element associated with the matched receiver; and storage of identifying information in the receiver on detection of the mechanical action. The invention also relates to a corresponding installation for method implementation.

Description

Procédé d' appariement entre un émetteur d'ordres et un récepteur d'ordres. Method of pairing between a transmitter of orders and a receiver of orders.
L'invention concerne un procédé d' appariement entre un émetteur d'ordres et un récepteur d'ordres selon le préambule de la revendication 1. L'invention concerne encore une installation pour la mise en œuvre de ce procédé .The invention relates to a method of pairing between a transmitter of orders and a receiver of orders according to the preamble of claim 1. The invention also relates to an installation for the implementation of this method.
Les émetteurs d'ordres et les récepteurs d'ordres font en général partie d'une même installation comprenant plusieurs émetteurs d' ordres devant pouvoir commander un même récepteur d'ordres et plusieurs récepteurs d' ordres devant pouvoir être commandés par un même émetteur d'ordres.The transmitters of orders and the receivers of orders generally form part of the same installation comprising several transmitters of orders which must be able to control the same receiver of orders and several receivers of orders which must be able to be controlled by the same transmitter of 'orders.
Il est dès lors indispensable que la communication entre ces éléments soit organisée : une fois installé dans un bâtiment, un récepteur d'ordres ne devient opérationnel que lorsqu'il est en mesure de reconnaître le ou les émetteurs d'ordres susceptibles de le commander. Cette opération de création de liens durables est dénommée « appariement ».It is therefore essential that communication between these elements be organized: once installed in a building, a command receiver only becomes operational when it is able to recognize the command transmitter (s) likely to command it. This operation of creating lasting links is called “pairing”.
Dans le cas des produits motorisés, des automatismes de fermeture ou des automatismes de protection solaire pour le bâtiment, des raisons logistiques nécessitent le plus souvent que les apparie ents ne soient pas réalisés lors de la fabrication des produits, mais sur chantier, après leur installation.In the case of motorized products, automatic closing systems or solar protection automatic systems for the building industry, logistical reasons most often require that the equipment not be produced during the production of the products, but on site, after their installation .
MS\2.S649.12PC.440.dpt Du brevet US 4,750,118, on connaît un dispositif et un procédé permettant, une fois installé dans un bâtiment, à un récepteur d'ordres d'apprendre au moins un identifiant d'un émetteur d'ordres lorsqu'il est placé dans un mode d'apprentissage.MS \ 2.S649.12PC.440.dpt From patent US Pat. No. 4,750,118, a device and a method are known which, once installed in a building, allow a command receiver to learn at least one identifier of a command transmitter when it is placed in a d mode. 'learning.
Il est encore connu de la demande EP 1 085 481 et du brevet US 3,806,874, dans le cas d'émetteurs d'ordres et de récepteurs d' ordres pouvant communiquer de manière bidirectionnelle, d'échanger une clé commune, qui sera utilisée dans des procédures d' authentification par dialogue sous forme de - challenge.It is also known from application EP 1 085 481 and from US Pat. No. 3,806,874, in the case of command transmitters and command receivers which can communicate bidirectionally, to exchange a common key, which will be used in authentication procedures by dialogue in the form of - challenge.
Quand le récepteur d'ordres est accessible, il est aisé d'utiliser un bouton spécifique ou une procédure particulière sur un bouton normalement, affecté à un autre usage, pour faire entrer le récepteur en mode d'apprentissage. Pendant une durée déterminée, le récepteur sait qu'il doit mémoriser l'identifiant contenu dans la trame d'un éventuel signal qu'il pourrait recevoir. Ainsi, l'émetteur d'ordres utilisé pour envoyer ce signal peut être enregistré par le récepteur, par exemple sous forme d'un numéro d'identité.When the command receiver is accessible, it is easy to use a specific button or a particular procedure on a button normally, assigned to another use, to put the receiver in learning mode. During a determined period, the receiver knows that it must memorize the identifier contained in the frame of a possible signal that it could receive. Thus, the transmitter of orders used to send this signal can be registered by the receiver, for example in the form of an identity number.
Dans le cas de récepteurs difficilement accessibles, plutôt que d' agir sur une commande spécifique de programmation, on a pensé pouvoir transmettre directement l'ordre de mise en mode d'apprentissage à partir de l'émetteur lui-même. Tous les émetteursIn the case of receivers that are difficult to access, rather than acting on a specific programming command, it was thought that the order to put in learning mode could be transmitted directly from the transmitter itself. All transmitters
MS\2.S649.12PC.440.dpt possèdent un numéro d'identité différent, mais possèdent un même code, reconnu par tout récepteur, pour la mise en mode d'apprentissage des récepteurs. Ainsi, sans avoir besoin de manipuler le récepteur d'ordres, l'installateur peut le faire entrer en mode d'apprentissage, en utilisant par exemple un bouton spécifique de l'émetteur d'ordres qui transmet alors à la fois le code de mise en apprentissage et son identifiant.MS \ 2.S649.12PC.440.dpt have a different identity number, but have the same code, recognized by any receiver, for putting the receivers into learning mode. Thus, without having to manipulate the command receiver, the installer can put it into learning mode, for example by using a specific button on the command transmitter which then transmits both the bet code in learning and its identifier.
La situation se complique lorsque plusieurs récepteurs se trouvent à portée de l'émetteur. Tous sont alors susceptibles d'apprendre l'identité d'un émetteur supposé commander un seul d'entre eux.The situation becomes complicated when several receivers are within range of the transmitter. All are then likely to learn the identity of a transmitter supposed to order only one of them.
Pour résoudre ce problème, plusieurs solutions ont déjà été proposées, à la fois pour le cas d'un premier appariement, mais aussi pour les cas de commandes de groupes de produits ou de remplacement d'un émetteur par un autre.To solve this problem, several solutions have already been proposed, both for the case of a first pairing, but also for the cases of orders of product groups or replacement of one transmitter by another.
On en trouve deux exemples dans le brevet FR 2 772 171 et dans la demande de brevet EP 1 045 356.Two examples are found in patent FR 2 772 171 and in patent application EP 1 045 356.
Notons qu'on peut utilement combiner, selon cet art antérieur, d'une part un événement initiateur (tel qu'une double coupure secteur) permettant aux récepteurs de passer en mode d'apprentissage dans lequel ils acceptent une commande d' appariement et la transmission ultérieure d'un tel ordre d' appariement à partir d'une télécommande.Note that it is useful to combine, according to this prior art, on the one hand an initiating event (such as a double power outage) allowing the receivers to switch to learning mode in which they accept a pairing command and the subsequent transmission of such a pairing order from a remote control.
MS\2.S649.12PC.440.dpt Par exemple, le fait d'utiliser une télécommande radio à très faible portée (en réduisant par exemple la sensibilité du récepteur quand il reçoit le code de mise en apprentissage) permet théoriquement de désigner un seul récepteur parmi une pluralité. Mais, il s'avère en pratique extrêmement difficile de maîtriser la portée de transmissions radio. Aussi se trouve-t-on nécessairement confronté au risque de désigner simultanément plusieurs récepteurs alors qu'on désire en désigner un seul. Compte tenu des modalités de propagation des ondes radio, on court le risque de désigner un récepteur non visible par l'installateur, par exemple parce que situé dans une pièce voisine ou à l'étage au-dessus.MS \ 2.S649.12PC.440.dpt For example, the fact of using a very short range radio remote control (by reducing for example the sensitivity of the receiver when it receives the learning code) theoretically makes it possible to designate a single receiver among a plurality. However, in practice it is extremely difficult to control the range of radio transmissions. So we are necessarily faced with the risk of simultaneously designating several receivers when we want to designate only one. Taking into account the radio wave propagation methods, there is a risk of designating a receiver that is not visible to the installer, for example because it is located in a neighboring room or on the floor above.
Le but de l'invention est de mettre en œuvre un procédé d' appariement améliorant les procédés de l'art antérieur et palliant les inconvénients de ceux-ci. En particulier, l'invention se propose de mettre en œuvre un procédé permettant d'apparier, un récepteur parmi plusieurs ne présentant pas de contact spécifique. L' invention concerne également une installation permettant de mettre en œuvre ce procédé.The object of the invention is to implement a matching method improving the methods of the prior art and overcoming the drawbacks of these. In particular, the invention proposes to implement a method making it possible to pair, one of several receivers having no specific contact. The invention also relates to an installation making it possible to implement this method.
Le procédé d' appariement selon l'invention est caractérisé par la partie caractérisante de la revendication 1.The matching method according to the invention is characterized by the characterizing part of claim 1.
Différents modes d'exécution de ce procédé sont définis par les revendications dépendantes 2 à 7.Different modes of carrying out this process are defined by dependent claims 2 to 7.
MS2.S649.12PC.440.dpt Les revendications 8 et 9 définissent une installation pour la mise en œuvre du procédé.MS2.S649.12PC.440.dpt Claims 8 and 9 define an installation for implementing the method.
Le dessin annexé représente, à titre d'exemple, un dispositif permettant la mise en œuvre du procédé selon l'invention et un ordinogramme d'un mode d'exécution du procédé selon l'invention.The accompanying drawing shows, by way of example, a device allowing the implementation of the method according to the invention and a flowchart of an embodiment of the method according to the invention.
La figure 1 est un schéma d'un dispositif permettant la mise en œuvre du procédé selon l'invention.Figure 1 is a diagram of a device for implementing the method according to the invention.
La figure 2 est un ordinogramme d'un mode d'exécution du procédé selon l'invention.FIG. 2 is a flowchart of an embodiment of the method according to the invention.
L'ensemble émetteur d'ordres EO, récepteur d'ordres RO et équipement 30 représenté à la figure 1 permet l'exécution du procédé d' appariement selon 1' invention.The set of EO command transmitters, RO command receivers and equipment 30 shown in FIG. 1 allows the execution of the pairing method according to the invention.
Bien entendu, l'invention ne trouve sa pleine utilité que si plusieurs récepteurs d'ordres non appariés sont installés à portée d'un émetteur d'ordres, cependant afin de facilité la compréhension de l'invention, on a représenté un seul récepteur d'ordres et un seul émetteur d'ordres.Of course, the invention finds its full utility only if several receivers of unpaired orders are installed within range of a transmitter of orders, however in order to facilitate understanding of the invention, a single receiver is shown. 'orders and a single issuer of orders.
L'émetteur d'ordres EO comprend un clavier 11 présentant une touche de programmation 15, relié à un microcontrôleur 12, un émetteur-récepteurThe EO order transmitter comprises a keyboard 11 having a programming key 15, connected to a microcontroller 12, a transceiver
MS\2.S649.12PC.440.dpt radiofréquences 13 et un élément de couplage 14 de type antenne.MS \ 2.S649.12PC.440.dpt radio frequency 13 and an antenna-type coupling element 14.
L'appui sur la touche 15 du clavier 11 a pour effet de provoquer l'émission, par des moyens connus, d'un signal contenant une information d'identification ou d' authentification de l'émetteur d'ordres EO.Pressing the key 15 of the keyboard 11 has the effect of causing the transmission, by known means, of a signal containing information identifying or authenticating the transmitter of EO orders.
Le récepteur d'ordres RO comprend notamment un élément de couplage 21 de type antenne, un émetteur-récepteur radiofréquences 22, un microcontrôleur 23 et un dispositif 24 de commande d'alimentation électrique de l'équipement 30, relié à une source d'énergie électrique constituée par exemple par le secteur.The RO command receiver notably comprises an antenna-type coupling element 21, a radio frequency transceiver 22, a microcontroller 23 and a device 24 for controlling the electrical supply of the equipment 30, connected to an energy source electric constituted for example by the sector.
Le dispositif 24 permet l'alimentation d'un moteur électrique 31 contenu dans l'équipement 30 dont l'activation permet, via un réducteur mécanique 32, l'entraînement en rotation ou en translation d'un élément mobile 40 tel qu'un volet roulant, une porte de garage ou un store.The device 24 allows the supply of an electric motor 31 contained in the equipment 30 whose activation allows, via a mechanical reducer 32, the driving in rotation or in translation of a mobile element 40 such as a flap roller shutter, a garage door or a blind.
Pour pallier une défaillance de la source d'énergie électrique ou autre, il est prévu de manière facultative un moyen mécanique de secours 33, tel qu'une manivelle, agissant également sur le réducteur en substitution du moteur.To compensate for a failure of the electrical or other energy source, there is optionally provided a mechanical emergency means 33, such as a crank, also acting on the reduction gear in substitution for the motor.
L'élément mobile 40 présente un détecteur de contrainte mécanique 41 dont la sortie est reliée au microcontrôleur 23. Ce capteur permet de détecter unThe movable element 40 has a mechanical stress detector 41 whose output is connected to the microcontroller 23. This sensor makes it possible to detect a

Il est à noter qu'il est possible d'utiliser un large choix de capteurs disposés dans l'équipement 30 ou dans le récepteur RO afin d'assurer la fonction de détection d'une action mécanique sur l'élément mobile. Il peut, par exemple, s'agir d'un capteur de courant délivré par le dispositif de commande d' alimentation 24, d'un capteur de rotation ou de couple dans le moteur 31, d'un capteur de rotation ou de couple dans le réducteur 32, d'un capteur de détection de manœuvre de secours ou d'un détecteur de choc sur l'élément mobile 40.It should be noted that it is possible to use a wide choice of sensors arranged in the equipment 30 or in the RO receiver in order to perform the function of detecting a mechanical action on the mobile element. It may, for example, be a current sensor delivered by the supply control device 24, a rotation or torque sensor in the motor 31, a rotation or torque sensor in the reduction gear 32, an emergency maneuver detection sensor or a shock detector on the mobile element 40.
Un ordinogramme du procédé d' appariement est représenté à la figure 2. Dans cet ordinogramme, deux récepteurs d' ordres ROI et R02 communiquent avec un même émetteur d'ordres EO, non représenté.A flowchart of the matching process is shown in FIG. 2. In this flowchart, two receivers of orders ROI and R02 communicate with the same transmitter of orders EO, not shown.
Les récepteurs d'ordres ROI et R02 sont identiques. Leur mise sous tension provoque l'activation d'un programme 60 d'attente d'événement initiateur.The ROI and R02 order receivers are identical. Their power-up causes the activation of an initiator event waiting program 60.
L'événement initiateur est un signal particulier. Il consiste en une double coupure franche de la tension secteur pendant un intervalle de temps court, réalisée par l'installateur à l'aide de coupe-circuit sur le tableau électrique de l'installation. Il peut aussi s'agir d'une impulsion prolongée sur la touche 15 duThe initiating event is a special signal. It consists of a clear double cut of the mains voltage for a short time interval, carried out by the installer using a circuit breaker on the electrical panel of the installation. It can also be a long press on key 15 of the
MS\2.S649.12PC.440.dpt clavier 11 de l'émetteur d'ordre EO, qui provoque l'émission d'un signal particulier.MS \ 2.S649.12PC.440.dpt keyboard 11 of the order transmitter EO, which causes the emission of a particular signal.
L'événement initiateur est représenté par la flèche Al. Il est détecté par les deux récepteurs ROI et R02. La détection de cet événement Al provoque dans les récepteurs d'ordres l'activation d'un programme 62 d'attente de détection d'une action mécanique. Ce programme consiste à tester l'état du capteur 41 de détection d'action mécanique ou à suivre les variations de la grandeur analogique mesurée par ce capteur.The initiating event is represented by the arrow Al. It is detected by the two receivers ROI and R02. The detection of this event A1 causes the command receivers to activate a program 62 waiting to detect a mechanical action. This program consists in testing the state of the mechanical action detection sensor 41 or in monitoring the variations of the analog quantity measured by this sensor.
Il peut encore consister à activer la rotation du moteur dans un sens donné pour détecter avec ce capteur la présence d'un obstacle ou d'une contrainte particulière au cours du mouvement.It may also consist in activating the rotation of the motor in a given direction to detect with this sensor the presence of an obstacle or of a particular constraint during the movement.
L' installateur applique ensuite une action mécanique détectable par le capteur sur l'élément mobile de l'équipement qu'il souhaite désigner.The installer then applies a mechanical action detectable by the sensor on the mobile element of the equipment he wishes to designate.
Cette action est représentée par la flèche A2. La détection de l'action mécanique a pour effet d'activer un programme 64 dans le récepteur concerné, qui le fait passer dans un mode d'apprentissage.This action is represented by the arrow A2. The detection of the mechanical action has the effect of activating a program 64 in the receiver concerned, which puts it into a learning mode.
En utilisant son émetteur d'ordres, l'installateur appuie maintenant sur la touche 15 du clavier 11, ce qui a pour effet d' émettre une trame contenant uneUsing his command transmitter, the installer now presses the key 15 on the keyboard 11, which has the effect of transmitting a frame containing a
MS\2.S649.12PC.440.dpt information d'identification de l'émetteur. Cette trame est représentée par la flèche Tl.MS \ 2.S649.12PC.440.dpt identification information of the issuer. This frame is represented by the arrow T1.
Tous les récepteurs à portée de l'émetteur d'ordres reçoivent ce signal à l'aide d'un programme de réception 66, mais seul le récepteur préalablement désigné par l'action A2 de l'installateur active un programme 68 d'apprentissage de l'information d' identification consistant à enregistrer celle-ci dans une mémoire. Ce programme peut être remplacé par une procédure plus complexe d' appariement et de partage de lien durable utilisant une communication bidirectionnelle entre l'émetteur d'ordres et le récepteur d'ordres désigné.All receivers within range of the order transmitter receive this signal using a reception program 66, but only the receiver previously designated by the action A2 of the installer activates a program 68 for learning the identification information consisting in recording this in a memory. This program can be replaced by a more complex procedure of linkage and durable link sharing using two-way communication between the order transmitter and the designated order receiver.
Enfin, un programme 70 mettant fin à l'attente d'action mécanique est activé dans tous les récepteurs. Ce programme peut être automatiquement activé par la fin du programme 66 pour les récepteurs n'ayant pas été désignés et par la fin du programme 68 pour le récepteur ayant été désigné.Finally, a program 70 ending the waiting for mechanical action is activated in all the receivers. This program can be automatically activated by the end of program 66 for the receivers which have not been designated and by the end of program 68 for the receiver which has been designated.
On peut aussi prévoir que le programme 70 est activé par une temporisation lancée par l'événement Al ou encore qu'il est activé, dans le seul récepteur apparié, par la fin du programme 68, de manière à permettre, immédiatement après ce premier appariement, 1' appariement d'autres récepteurs avec d'autres émetteurs sans qu'un nouvel événement initiateur ne soit nécessaire.It can also be provided that the program 70 is activated by a timer launched by the event A1 or that it is activated, in the only paired receiver, by the end of the program 68, so as to allow, immediately after this first pairing , 1 pairing of other receivers with other transmitters without the need for a new initiating event.
MS\2.S649.12PC.440.dpt On peut aussi prévoir que les programmes 64 et 68 provoquent l'émission d'un signal visuel ou autre de la part de l'équipement désigné, comme par exemple un bref mouvement d'aller et retour de l'élément mobile, ceci afin de confirmer la sélection et l' appariement du récepteur.MS \ 2.S649.12PC.440.dpt It can also be envisaged that the programs 64 and 68 cause the emission of a visual or other signal from the designated equipment, such as for example a brief back and forth movement of the movable element, this in order to confirm the selection and pairing of the receiver.
Une variante possible consiste à inverser la chronologie des actions Tl et A2 : on peut en effet émettre dans un premier temps la trame d'identification Tl et activer le programme 66 dans tous les récepteurs. Une action mécanique A2 est ensuite appliquée sur l'élément mobile du récepteur devant être désigner et active successivement les programmes 64 et 68.A possible variant consists in reversing the chronology of the actions T1 and A2: it is indeed possible to firstly transmit the identification frame T1 and activate the program 66 in all the receivers. A mechanical action A2 is then applied to the mobile element of the receiver to be designated and successively activates programs 64 and 68.
On remarque que dans cette variante, s'il a été choisi de provoquer l'événement initiateur à partir de l'émetteur d'ordres et non à partir d'un autre signal comme par exemple une double coupure de la tension d'alimentation, il devient avantageux de grouper en une seule étape les actions Al et Tl : la trame émise comme signal initiateur comporte également l'information d'identification de l'émetteur.Note that in this variant, if it has been chosen to cause the initiating event from the command transmitter and not from another signal such as for example a double cut of the supply voltage, it becomes advantageous to group the actions A1 and T1 in a single step: the frame transmitted as the initiator signal also includes the identification information of the transmitter.
Ce procédé d' appariement peut s'appliquer à tout émetteur d'ordres et tout récepteur d'ordres communiquant par radio et utilisant une même fréquence et/ou utilisant un même protocole de communication.This pairing process can be applied to any order transmitter and any order receiver communicating by radio and using the same frequency and / or using the same communication protocol.
MS\2.S649.12PC.440.dpt Ces émetteurs et ces récepteurs peuvent être aptes à communiquer de manière bidirectionnelle ou unidirectionnelle .MS \ 2.S649.12PC.440.dpt These transmitters and these receivers can be able to communicate in a bidirectional or unidirectional manner.
