- the server Sv receives a command message M C from a user Usr or an application A relating to a request for execution of a control group CGr comprising a plurality of commands C.
- the command group CGr comprises at least a first sub-group of commands CSGR1 comprising at least one command C to be made by a domotic device D attached to a first central control unit Ul and a second sub-group of commands CSGr2 comprising at least one command C to be made by a home automation device D attached to a second central control unit U2.
- the correspondence between the execution of the command subgroups CSGrl and CSGr2 and the command group CGr is kept in memory for an appropriate error handling.
- the ES execution service can implement a state machine for this purpose.
- the server proceeds to the establishment of a list of central control units U among the plurality of central control units U concerned by the command group CGr comprising at least said first central processing unit. control U1 and said second central control unit U2.
- the server Sv establishes in a step ECSv2 'the correspondence between the execution result of the command group CGr and the respective execution results of the two command subgroups CSGrl and CSGr2, this correspondence being able to be stored in memory or in the database.
- a third step ECSv3 a first control message MCSGrl is sent to the central unit U1 of the home automation system 17 for the execution of the command subgroup CSGrl.
- This first control message MCSGrl includes instructions for triggering the commands of the control subgroup CSGrl relating to the devices D attached to the central control unit Ul.
- a second control message MCSGr2 is sent to the central control unit U2 of the home automation system 17 for the execution of the subgroup CSGr2.
- This second control message MCSGr2 includes instructions for triggering the commands of the control subgroup CSGr2 relating to the devices D attached to the central control unit U2.
- the return of the execution of the second control sub-group CSGr2 corresponds to a failure, with return of a return code RCSGr2, sent by the central control unit U2 in a step ECU24.
- the execution service defines a response to be returned to the user following the command message MCGr.
- the command group CGr is considered performed if all subgroups CSGrl, CSGr2 have been successfully completed, and failed if one or more subgroups have failed.
- This response is communicated to the user Usr or the application A which receives it in a step ECUsr5 or ECA5.
- all the steps can be performed by an APP application on a mobile terminal T instead of the server Sv.
- the reception step can be performed by the communication of an order by the user through the application's graphical interface.
- a simple command C of a home automation device D can be processed by the server Sv or by the mobile terminal T, following the receipt of a control message from a Usr user or a third-party application A.
