The service server 250 provides the authority data (i.e., the right information) received at S6 to the messaging client 100 (S7).

In the process of FIG. 4, a message may be directly transmitted / received between the messaging client 100 and the service server 250, and a message may be transmitted / received via the messaging server 200 (see S1a and S7a).

5 is a diagram illustrating a process of acquiring rights by a messaging client according to another embodiment of the present invention. FIG. 5 may operate based on a messaging client that has installed a commercial messenger application (e.g., Facebook Messenger) that does not authenticate the phone number.

The messaging client 100 may request authorization from the service server 250 (S11). During this process, the messaging client 100 may provide the identity, name, contact, or other identification information of the user of the messaging client 100. Such a rights request can be implemented in the form of a message exchange on the messenger. The service server 250 transmits the user's information to the authentication server 90 operated by the authentication company in response to the received authorization request and requests authentication of the user (S12). In this process, the service server 250 can transmit the name, contact information, and the like necessary for the identity authentication to the identity authentication server 90.

The authentication server 90 requests the message client 100 to confirm the identity required for authentication (S13), and receives the confirmation result (confirmation information) (S14). When the authentication result is the identity authentication result, the identity authentication server 90 transmits the authentication result to the service server 250 (S15). Thereafter, the service server 250 inquires the cloud server 300 about the information using the information received in S15 and requests the cloud server 300 to create an account (S16). The cloud server 300 stores the data using the information requested in S16 and generates the authority (S17).

In this case, the data about the rights generated by the cloud server 300 may be a messenger ID, a name, a contact, and a type of authority. When the creation is completed, the cloud server 300 responds to the request of S16 (S18).

Thereafter, the service server interface unit 310 may transmit the generated authorization data to the service server. The authorization data means the authority that the first messaging client 100 continuously transmits the text including the instruction to the service server 250 and can execute the instruction accordingly.

When the command is requested, the server control unit 350 can check whether the authority of the messaging client 100 is authorized to request the command based on the identification information of the messaging client 100 requesting the command. If the change is reflected in the user database unit 340, the cloud server 300 may execute or deny the command based on the changed authority.

The authentication processes of FIGS. 4 and 5 are summarized as follows.

The messaging client 100 requests the authority of the user. (S1, S11). As shown in FIG. 4, authentication information (name, contact information) necessary for service use can be acquired using the messaging server 200 (S2, S3). Alternatively, as shown in FIG. 5, in the case of the non-authentication messaging service, the user authentication can be performed through the authentication server 90 operated by the authentication company (S12, S13, S14, S15).

Then, the service server 250 confirms the user information about the registration site (connecting the server to the cloud server, storing the information about the representative manager of the site at the time of registration, or confirming the matching with the corresponding information) And requests confirmation of the generation of authority by a messaging client or a computer managed by a senior manager. That is, when the senior administrator allows the senior administrator to confirm the generation of authority, the cloud server 300 generates the authority and provides the authority to the service server 250, A message-based remote control is performed between the mobile terminal 250 and the mobile terminal.

The procedure for the cloud server 300 to confirm the user and generate the authority may be automatically performed based on a preset program. Or after allowing a separate messaging client held by a senior manager to do so.

4 and 5, a user who uses the messaging client 100 requests usage rights by adding a contact or messenger ID of the remote maintenance service, and the cloud server 300, which provides the remote maintenance service, Or, after confirming the messenger ID, give authority to the management site.

The user adds the service server 250 that provides the remote maintenance service registered in the messenger using the messaging client 100 in a messaging manner to the messaging client 100 in a manner of adding a messaging partner and then transmits a message To the service server (250). The messaging client 100 may receive the result of the monitoring or control command that is performed as a result of the transmission, in the form of a message from the service server 250 or a URL indicating a specific result.

For example, when the messaging client 100 transmits a message "Tell a managed indoor unit list ", the service server 250 may receive a result of displaying the indoor unit list. In addition, when the messaging client 100 transmits a message "Change the temperature of the indoor unit to 21 degrees ", the service server 250 can receive a result of the temperature change control.

In another embodiment, when the messaging client 100 transmits a message "End of all indoor units ", the service server 250 can receive the result of the end of the entire indoor unit. The service server 250 and the cloud server 300 provide a remote maintenance service in which the service server 250 sends and receives messages containing text with the messaging client 100 and transmits monitoring information or control results. The cloud server 300 may execute the requested control command on the remote maintenance service or generate the monitoring result.

In particular, when the messaging client 100 requests detailed monitoring information, a separate URL is generated and provided in the form of a web page so that login is not necessary and the page can be provided in such a manner that the user can delete the right of access immediately upon termination of the connection . The URL generation method will be described with reference to FIGS. 8, 10, and 11. FIG.

FIG. 6 is a diagram illustrating a process in which a messaging client that has been authenticated according to an embodiment of the present invention transmits a message to a cloud server.

The user inputs a predetermined content into the messaging client 100 as text. The input text is delivered to the service server 250 in the chat mode of the messenger (S21). And the messenger interface unit 253 of the service server 250 receives the message from the messaging client 100. [

At this time, the text to be delivered may be text in a natural-language way, for example, "Turn off the 5th floor air conditioner". Or "5th floor air conditioner OFF ". The text may include words that control the air conditioning system, or may include words that identify the condition of the air conditioning system.

The service server 250 converts the text received in S21 into a predetermined meaning, that is, a predetermined command (S22). In more detail, the text analyzer 251 analyzes the text of the received message transmitted by the messaging client 100 and extracts equipment identification information indicating equipment to be controlled and operation identification information to be designated by the equipment. For example, the text analysis unit 251 can extract the equipment identification information for the object of control such as "5th floor air conditioner "," 3rd floor outdoor unit " You can also extract motion identification information (including monitoring requests) to instruct the equipment, such as "turn off", "monitor", "current temperature" This allows the text analysis unit 251 to confirm that the text other than the text extracted as the equipment identification information is a candidate for the operation identification information, and can process them in a natural language.

And sends identification information (e.g., ID) of the messaging client 100 that transmitted the text in S21 to the cloud server 300 (S23). That is, the command generation unit 252 of the service server 250 generates a command based on the text analyzed by the text analysis unit 251 and transmits the command generated by the cloud server interface unit 254 to the cloud server 300 .

The cloud server 300 confirms the received information (identification information, ID, command word, etc.) and performs the task indicated in the command, such as control or monitoring (S24). The cloud server 300 can confirm the authentication information through the identification information (ID) of the message client 100, which has not transmitted the command to the service server 250, and can perform an operation according to the command. The cloud server 300 transmits the result of performing the task or information to be monitored to the service server 250 as a result (S25). That is, when the cloud server interface unit 254 of the service server 250 receives the execution result of the command from the cloud server 300, the messenger interface unit 253 transmits the result of execution of the command, that is, 100).

This is the process of the service server 250 responding to the messaging client 100 based on the interactive service (S26). For example, if the text "Please turn off the 5th floor air conditioner" is transmitted in S21, the service server 250 may respond to the messaging client 100 in S26. As described above, messages may be directly transmitted / received between the messaging client 100 and the service server 250, and messages may be transmitted / received via the messaging server 200 (see S21a and S26a).

The instructions that the service server 250 converts in S22 may be natural language processing of the texts received from the user to control the air conditioning system or convert them into commands for monitoring them and transmit them to the cloud server 300. [ The types of commands to be converted from text or text may include words such as a list of devices constituting the air conditioning system, an air conditioner, an indoor unit, an outdoor unit, a temperature, a mode, an air flow rate, wind intensity, . It may also include natural languages that require the task to be performed, such as "down", "abbreviated", "up", "some degree", "show", "on", "off" Also, for the purpose of monitoring, "output", "recent", "1 hour", "yesterday", "month", "whole", "all" and the like may be included in the text to be converted into a command or a command.

On the other hand, the authority that can be assigned to the messaging client 100 may vary. General user authority, advanced administrator authority, and representative manager authority. In one embodiment, the messaging client 100 to which the general user right is granted may be limited in the air conditioning system that can be controlled. Or the range of control can be limited. Only simple monitoring may be possible. It is possible to control only the air conditioners of a specific range (specific space, specific floor), change the temperature of the air conditioners within 3 degrees or to increase or decrease the air temperature by one step without executing the command for the entire air conditioning system The range may be limited. The monitoring result of the air conditioning system may also be limited to the monitoring of the current temperature or the temperature of the specific space.

On the other hand, administrator privilege can control the air conditioning system of the whole space unlike general user authority. In addition, the messaging client 100 having the administrator authority can output detailed information composed of a graph or a table instead of the simplified text information. For this purpose, the messaging client 100 having the administrator authority can receive the graph or table requested by the service server 250 from the service server 250 in a single screen form. In this case, unlike the user authority, the service server 250 may temporarily generate a web page and provide a link to the web page so that the web page does not need to be searched.

Also, as shown in FIG. 11, the actuator information of the outdoor unit can be confirmed.

As shown in FIGS. 7 to 11, the messenger interface unit 253 of the service server 250 may provide a result corresponding to the requested message to the messaging client at an address accessible via the Web. That is, the messenger interface unit 253 transmits a command execution result including a URL (Uniform Resource Locator) address accessible to the Web to the messaging client 100 so that the messaging client 100 can access and check the result . In addition, the connection address can be deleted after a predetermined time to maintain security. The information of the Web access address may be information provided by the cloud server 300. It may also be the information provided by the service server 250. This can be different depending on the implementation method.

12 is a diagram illustrating a process in which a user requests an authority according to an embodiment of the present invention.

The messaging client 100 is in a state where it is not currently authorized (see 40a). As a result, no separate permissions are displayed. Then, as indicated by 40b, the messaging client 100 sends a message "OO field manager authority request" to the service server bot as S41. The service server 250 receiving the message performs a procedure for granting an administrator authority according to the procedures shown in FIG. It can be processed in the same process as the processing of a command based on general text.

In one embodiment, when the text of S41 is delivered to the service server 250, the service server 250 sends the identification information and authentication information of the messaging client 100, such as an ID, name, ). The cloud server 300 compares and matches the information of the field manager stored in the cloud server 300 with the ID, name, and contact information transmitted from the cloud server 300, and if so, stores it and creates and assigns an administrator authority. Then, the service server 250 provides a message that the field manager authority is granted, and the messaging client 100 outputs it as S42. As a result, administrator authority is set in the messaging client 100 as indicated at 40c.

5, the messaging client 100 using the unauthenticated messenger may authenticate itself with the authentication server 90, which is separate from the messaging client 100 (S12 to S15 in Fig. 5). After the authentication is completed, the right is granted according to S16 to S19 of FIG. 5, and as a result, the right is granted on the screen as shown in S42 of FIG.

13 is a diagram illustrating a process in which a service server according to an embodiment of the present invention analyzes a text of a natural language and generates a command. The service server 250 receives the message from the messaging client 100 (S50). The received message may vary according to the language usage environment of the person. The following is an example of the contents of the message (MSG_CONTENT_1).

MSG_CONTENT_1 = {"Show the status of all indoor units",

          "List all indoor units "," List all indoor units &

          "What is the status of all indoor units?", "Show all indoor units status", ...}

The service server 250 processes the contents of the received message in a natural language to extract a main word. For example, in the above MSG_CONTENT_1, the service server 250 extracts the words "indoor unit" and "state" and the words "all" or "all" or "all" (S51).

The service server 250 generates a command CMD_1 for requesting the entire indoor unit status based on the protocol promised with the cloud server 300 based on the analyzed contents (S52), and transmits the generated command to the cloud server 300 (S53).

When generating the command, the service server 250 can confirm that it is the indoor unit status information limited to the area managed by the messaging client 100 using the identification information of the user of the messaging client 100, and can reflect this in command generation. For example, a command for requesting the status of all the indoor units in the case where the authority of the user is limited to managing the "BD_01" area and a command for requesting the status of all the indoor units in the case where the authority of the user is limited to managing the "BD_02" Can be different. Or the user's identification information (ID, name, etc.) may be included in the command, and the cloud server 300 may verify the identification information to generate a suitable result.

The cloud server 300 generates a result corresponding to the received command (S54). If the result is a specific operation, the operation is performed and the result is generated. Alternatively, when requesting specific information, the information is extracted and a result is generated.

If MSG_CONTENT_1 is a message requesting the status of the indoor unit, a corresponding result is generated. Then, the cloud server 300 transmits the result to the service server 250 (S55). The service server 250 may selectively process the received result (S56). For example, sorting the contents into a format that can be outputted to the messaging client 100. [ Then, the processing result is transmitted to the messaging client 100 (S57).

Table 1 below shows the messages that can be included in MSG_CONTENT_1 and the corresponding results that can be received.

MSG_CONTENT_1
"Show all indoor units", "All indoor units", "List all indoor units", "Show all indoor units?", "Show all indoor units" result
Indoor unit 1 (current: 23 degrees, setting: 22 degrees, mode: air flow, air volume: middle, temperature lock ON, mode lock NO)
Indoor unit 2 (current: 22 degrees, setting: 25 degrees, mode: air flow, air volume: middle, temperature lock OFF, mode lock NO)
Indoor unit 3 (current: 26 degrees, setting: 21 degrees, mode: cooling, air volume: steel, temperature lock ON, mode lock OFF)
Indoor unit 4 (current: 28 degrees, setting: 28 degrees, mode: air flow, air volume: approx., Temperature lock ON, mode lock NO)
Indoor unit 5 (current: 21 degrees, setting: 29 degrees, mode: air flow, air volume: approx., Temperature lock ON, mode lock NO)
Indoor unit 6 (current: 22 degrees, setting: 22 degrees, mode: air flow, air volume: approx., Temperature lock ON, mode lock OFF)
Indoor unit 7 (present: 26 degrees, setting: 23 degrees, mode: cooling, air volume: steel, temperature lock OFF, mode lock NO)
Indoor unit 8 (present: 27 degrees, setting: 25 degrees, mode: cooling, air volume: steel, temperature lock ON, mode lock NO)

The above result is output to the messaging client 100. As described above, when the messaging client 100 is set to manage only the indoor units 1, 2 and 3, only the results of the indoor units 1, 2 and 3 among the results of Table 1 are transmitted to the messaging client 100 .

As another embodiment of the present invention, Table 2 shows examples of messages requesting a specific point-in-time history for a particular indoor unit that may be included in MSG_CONTENT_1 and correspondingly receivable results. Of course, the result is obtained when the messaging client 100 is authorized to request the history for the indoor unit.

MSG_CONTENT_1
"Show the driving time history of indoor unit 1 yesterday,""Driving time of indoor unit 1 yesterday,""List of driving hours of indoor unit 1 yesterday,""What is driving indoor unit 1 yesterday? result
Indoor unit 1 (total operation time: 8 hours, cumulative time 12 hours)

As another embodiment of the present invention, Table 3 shows examples of messages requesting information on equipment (including an indoor unit and an outdoor unit) in which a failure has occurred or may be included in MSG_CONTENT_1, and the corresponding results that can be received. Of course, the result is obtained if the messaging client 100 is authorized to request information about anomalies for the devices.

MSG_CONTENT_1
"Show faulty or abnormal equipment", "Failed equipment", "Abnormal equipment", "Abnormal indoor unit, Outdoor unit list" result
Outdoor unit 3: Inverter discharge temperature sensor fault, refrigerant shortage (1 hour before the first fault,
Outdoor unit 5: Network condition error (1 day before the first failure time, checking air conditioner article)
Indoor unit 1: Fan condition error (first failure time July 7th 11:00, air conditioner article checking)

As another embodiment of the present invention, Table 4 shows examples of messages requesting monitoring that can be included in MSG_CONTENT_1 and the corresponding results that can be received. Of course, the result is obtained when the messaging client 100 is authorized to request information about the monitoring.

MSG_CONTENT_1
"What is the average temperature of the entire indoor unit?",
"What is the average temperature of the entire indoor unit?"
"Average temperature of the entire indoor unit & MSG_CONTENT_1
"Current indoor unit operation rate"
"Indoor unit operation rate"
"What is the current operating rate of indoor units?" result
The average temperature of the entire indoor unit at the OO site is 25.3 ° C. result
The operating rate of the indoor unit in the OO field is 36%.

In the case of a message requesting monitoring or specific information, it is necessary to verify the authority of the messaging client 100 that transmitted the message, which can be verified by the service server 250 or the cloud server 300 . This can be implemented differently depending on the implementation method.

On the other hand, the operation of the indoor unit or the outdoor unit can be controlled using the messaging client 100. In this case, according to the type of the controlled operation or the authority set in the messaging client 100, the execution result of the corresponding operation may be transmitted to the messaging client of another user.

FIG. 14 is a diagram illustrating a process in which a service server according to another embodiment of the present invention analyzes a text of a natural language and generates a command. The service server 250 receives the message from the first messaging client 100a (S60). The received message may vary according to the language usage environment of the person. An example of the content of the message (MSG_CONTENT_2) is as follows.

MSG_CONTENT_2 = {"Change the temperature of indoor unit 1 to 29 degrees", "indoor unit 1 29 degrees"

          "Indoor unit 1 29 degrees", "indoor unit 1 temperature 29", ...)

The service server 250 processes the contents of the received message in a natural language to extract a main word. For example, the service server 250 extracts words such as "indoor unit" and "temperature", which are meaningful words in the above MSG_CONTENT_2, and analyzes the result as a message for controlling the temperature of the indoor unit 1 by 29 degrees (S61 ).

The service server 250 generates a command CMD_2 for changing the temperature of the entire indoor unit 1 based on the protocol promised with the cloud server 300 based on the analyzed contents (S62), and transmits the generated command to the cloud server 300 (S63).

When generating the command, the service server 250 can confirm that the indoor unit 1 is controlled by using the identification information of the user of the first messaging client 100a, and reflect the same in command generation. Or if the authority to control the indoor unit 1 managed by the user is limited, it can be reflected in the command generation.

For example, it is assumed that the user's authority can change the temperature to " indoor unit 1 "to 3 degrees or less based on the current temperature. When the current temperature of the "indoor unit 1" is 25 degrees and the temperature to be changed is 29 degrees, the service server 250 transmits the right information to the cloud server 300, Quot; to " 28 degrees "by changing the temperature to reflect the difference value (between 22 degrees and 28 degrees) within the range of "

When the service server 250 requests the user to change the temperature of the indoor unit 1 to 29 degrees, the cloud server 300 transmits the information to the server 28 Quot; or "degree ".

The cloud server 300 performs a task corresponding to the received command word (S64). As described above, the cloud server 300 confirms the right to control using the identification information of the first messaging client 100a, and checks whether the control command included in the command is within the set authority. If it exceeds the scope of authority, it can be adjusted and changed to a task within the scope of authority. Temperature control is one example.

Then, the cloud server 300 performs a task corresponding to the command and generates a task execution result (S65). Depending on the type of job, the result of the job can be included in the result. As a result, the cloud server 300 transmits the work execution result and the receiver information to be reported to the service server 250 (S66).

For example, when the second messaging client 100b has a general manager authority over a plurality of indoor units including the indoor unit 1, the first messaging client 100a controls the operation of the indoor unit 1 as two messaging clients (100a, 100b).

The service server 250 may selectively process the received result (S67). For example, it is possible to perform processing such as sorting contents by different formats that can be output to the first messaging client 100a requesting the job and the second messaging client 100b receiving the job result, . The processed result is transmitted to the respective messaging clients 100a and 100b (S68 and S69).

As another embodiment of the present invention, Table 5 shows examples of messages requesting control that can be included in MSG_CONTENT_2 and correspondingly receivable results. Result 1 is the result displayed on the first messaging client 100a that sent the control request message, and Result 2 is the result displayed on the second messaging client 100b that is set to receive the control result separately. In the result 2, "USER1" may be the user identification information of the first messaging client 100a. The two messaging clients of FIG. 14 can be distinguished as USER1 first messaging client 100a and second (ADMIN) messaging client 100b.

MSG_CONTENT_2
"Change the temperature of indoor unit 1 to 29 degrees", "indoor unit 1 29 degrees", "indoor unit 1 29 degrees"
"Indoor unit 1 temperature 29" Result 1
OO Site Indoor Unit 1 The set temperature has been changed to 29 ° C. Result 2
OO Site Indoor unit 1 The set temperature has been changed to 29 ° C at the request of USER1 .

14, after the command requested by the first messaging client 100a is executed, the result of executing the command to be received by the service server 250 may include identification information of one or more messaging clients to which the execution result is to be delivered, have. This is an embodiment in which the identification information of the messaging client of other users who need to be notified of a change in the status of a specific equipment or an advanced license is included as a recipient. For example, the server control unit 350 of the cloud server 300 searches the user database unit 340 constituting the cloud server 300 for identification information of the second messaging client 100b, The identification information of the second messaging client 100b may be included as a receiver in the execution result of the command.

When a plurality of messaging clients are included in the execution result, the cloud server 300 has a separate user database unit 340 and is set to receive a control command for a specific device or a result of execution of a control command requested by a specific user User information may be stored in the user database unit 340. [ This can be grouped hierarchically by equipment or grouped by identification information of specific users.

In addition, the service server 250 has a separate user database unit 256, and the user information set to receive the control command for the specific equipment or the execution result of the control command requested by the specific user is stored in the user database unit 256 Lt; / RTI > As with the cloud server 300, they may be hierarchically grouped by equipment or grouped hierarchically by specific user identification information.

Finally, the service server 250 uses the identification information of the second messaging client 100b included in the execution result or the identification information of the second messaging client 100b stored in the user database unit 256. [ As a result, the messenger interface unit 2530 can transmit the execution result to the first messaging client 100a and the second messaging client 100b.

On the other hand, according to the embodiment shown in FIG. 14 and Table 5, it is possible to transmit to the service server 250 a message canceling the control command advanced in the messaging clients 100a and 100b receiving the control result of the equipment. 14, a message (MSG_CONTENT_3) canceling the control command that has been advanced after the USER1 messaging client (first messaging client) 100a that transmitted the message receives the result of S68, Can be transmitted. Or the message (MSG_CONTENT_4) that the ADMIN messaging client (second messaging client) 100b cancels the control performed by another user USER1 after receiving the result of S69. This will be described with reference to FIG.

15 is a diagram illustrating a process of transmitting a message for canceling a previous control command according to an embodiment of the present invention.

The service server 250 receives a message from the USER1 messaging client (first messaging client) 100a that transmitted the message in Fig. 14 or the ADMIN messaging client (second messaging client) 100b that receives the result of the operation of USER1 (S70a, S70b). The received message may vary according to the language usage environment of the person. An example of the content (MSG_CONTENT_3) of the message transmitted by the USER1 messaging client 100a is as follows.

MSG_CONTENT_3 = {"I just canceled the job," "canceled the transfer,"

          "Cancel job", ...}

An example of the contents (MSG_CONTENT_4) of the message transmitted by the ADMIN messaging client 100b is as follows.

MSG_CONTENT_4 = {"Cancel just USER1 action", "Cancel canceling USER1",

          "Cancel job USER1", ...}

The service server 250 processes the contents of the received message in a natural language to extract a main word. For example, in response to S70a, the service server 250 extracts words such as "cancel" and "job", which are meaningful words in the above MSG_CONTENT_3, and the service server 250 transmits a message canceling the operation of USER1 (S71).

In response to S70b, the service server 250 extracts words such as "cancel", "operation", "USER1", etc., which are significant words in the above MSG_CONTENT_3, and the service server 250 transmits a message (S71).

The service server 250 generates a command CMD_3 for canceling the operation instructed by the USER1 based on the protocol promised with the cloud server 300 based on the analyzed contents (S72), and transmits the generated command to the cloud server 300 (S73).

The service server 250 cancels the work that has been performed by using the user identification information USER1 of the first messaging client 100a or the user identification information ADMIN of the second messaging client 100b And can reflect this in command generation.

Of course, in the case where the information on the user authority or the work performer is not present in the service server 250 but only in the cloud server 300, the service server 250 instructs "cancel of the work performed by USER1" irrespective of S70a and S70b (USER1 or ADMIN) to the cloud server 300, the cloud server 300 identifies the user using the received command and the identification information of the user included in the command It can be implemented to cancel the indicated operation.

The cloud server 300 cancels the operation corresponding to the received command and restores the previous state (S74). As described above, the cloud server 300 confirms the revocation authority using the identification information (USER1 or ADMIN) of the messaging clients 100a and 100b, and the control command (cancel command) included in the command is set Check whether it is within the scope of authority. If the scope of authority is exceeded, the result can be generated as failure of execution of the cancel command.

In response to the cancel command requested with the set authority, the cloud server 300 cancels the operation corresponding to the command and generates a result of canceling the operation (S75). Depending on the type of job, the result of the job can be included in the result. As a result, the cloud server 300 transmits the job execution result and the recipient information to be reported to the service server 250 (S76).

For example, if the ADMIN messaging client (second messaging client) 100b has requested cancellation (S70b) for the operation of the USER1 messaging client (first messaging client) 100a, then the USER1 messaging client 100a also cancels the operation Results can be sent. In addition, when the USER1 messaging client 100a requests cancellation of the operation of the USER1 messaging client 100a (S70a), the ADMIN messaging client 100b can also transmit the cancellation result of the operation.

The service server 250 can selectively process the received result (S77). For example, it is possible to perform processing such as sorting contents by different formats that can be output to the USER1 messaging client 100a and the ADMIN messaging client 100b. Then, the processing result is transmitted to the respective messaging clients 100a and 100b (S78 and S79).

As another embodiment of the present invention, Table 6 shows examples of messages requesting control that can be included in MSG_CONTENT_3 and correspondingly receivable results. That is, it is shown that the cancellation is started by S70a. Result 1 is the result displayed on the USER1 messaging client 100a that sent the cancellation request message, and Result 2 is the result displayed on the second messaging client 100b that is authorized to receive the cancellation result separately. In the result 2, "USER1" may be the user identification information of the USER1 messaging client 100a.

MSG_CONTENT_3
"Just cancel the job", "Cancel the transfer", "Cancel job" Result 1
OO Site Indoor unit 1 The temperature has been restored to 27 ° C, which is the pre-29 ° C temperature. Result 2
OO Site Indoor unit 1 The set temperature has been restored to 27 ° C with the cancellation of USER1 .

As another embodiment of the present invention, Table 7 shows examples of messages requesting control that can be included in MSG_CONTENT_4 and the corresponding results that can be received. That is, it is shown that the cancellation is started by S70b. Result 1 shows the result of canceling the job by the ADMIN messaging client 100b to the USER1 messaging client 100a that transmitted the message requesting the specific job in FIG.

On the other hand, Result 2 is the result of requesting the cancellation of the operation of the USER1 messaging client 100a and displayed on the ADMIN messaging client 100b receiving the result. "ADMIN" in the result 1 can be the user identification information of the ADMIN messaging client 100b.

MSG_CONTENT_4
"Cancel just USER1 job", "Cancel job before USER1", "Cancel job USER1" Result 1
OO Site Indoor Unit 1 The set temperature has been restored to 27 ° C, which is the pre-29 ° C state due to the cancellation of ADMIN . Result 2
OO Site Indoor unit 1 The set temperature has been restored to 27 ° C due to cancellation.

The messaging interface unit 253 receives a cancel message canceling the execution of the command from the first messaging client 100a or the second messaging client 100b. The command generation unit 252 may generate a command for canceling the execution of the command by comparing the command stored in the history unit 255 with the received cancel message. Then, the generated command is transmitted to the cloud server 300 so that the previously executed command can be canceled.

15, the service server interface unit 310 of the cloud server 300 may be connected to the first messaging client 100a or the second messaging client 100a in the case where the cloud server 300 further includes a history unit 330 storing instructions. Upon receiving the cancel command canceling the execution of the command from the messaging client 100b, the server control unit 350 compares the command stored in the history unit 330 with the cancel command and controls the equipment interface unit 320 to cancel the command can do.

FIG. 16 is a diagram illustrating a process in which a plurality of messaging clients according to an embodiment of the present invention receives a result of a work performed in another messaging client.

In FIG. 16, the first messaging client 100a transmits a message requesting a predetermined monitoring or operation to the service server 250 (S80). The service server 250 converts the received message into a command and transmits it to the cloud server 300 (S81), and receives a result of processing the command from the cloud server 300 (S82). The service server 250 transmits the processing result to the first messaging client 100a (S83).

On the other hand, the service server 250 also transmits the processing result to the second messaging client 100b to the Nth messaging client 100n that are related to the job (S84 to S89). This is because when a plurality of messaging clients are controlled or monitored by an indoor unit or an outdoor unit to be controlled, a hierarchical structure is presented in the authority setting, or a command for controlling the entire equipment or a large number of equipment is executed in the cloud server 300 And the like.

For example, Table 8 shows examples of messages requesting control of all indoor units and the corresponding results that can be received. That is, in step S80, a message for changing the mode of the entire indoor unit to blowing air is transmitted. The contents displayed in the result can be displayed in all the messaging clients 100a to 100n through S83 to S89.
