The electronic apparatus establishes a wireless connection with the external device directly using the identified MAC Address, and obtains needed data from the external device through the wireless connection. Therefore, this wireless method circumvents the hassle for user to turn on and off a Bluetooth transmitting unit of the electronic apparatus, select a connecting target, and establish the wireless connection with the external device manually all together.

Description

Wireless data extraction method for external data, electronic device and application thereof

The invention relates to a method for capturing, and more particularly to a wireless capturing method for an electronic device to automatically establish a Bluetooth transmission to quickly capture external data.

There are many electronic devices on the market that can be used by the user to measure and record some values, such as the first A picture and the first B picture, which are schematic diagrams of the prior art blood pressure machine and the electricity meter.

In general, the blood pressure machine 1 is used to assist the user in measuring data such as systolic blood pressure, diastolic blood pressure, and pulse, and is displayed on the blood pressure machine 1 On the screen 11. The user can view the above measurement data through the screen 11 and copy and record the data. The meter 2 is used to measure the total power consumption of the electric appliance in the user's home, and is displayed by a data table 21 thereon, so that the user can know the current power consumption through the data table 21, the power company. The personnel can also calculate the electricity bill.

However, taking the blood pressure machine 1 as an example, when the medical staff uses the blood pressure machine 1 in a hospital, the blood pressure is mainly measured by the patient, and after the measurement is completed, the medical record is recorded by handwriting, such that Come, there will be people who have mistyped mistakes. Further, if a plurality of blood pressure machines 1 are used at a time and blood pressure data of a plurality of patients are simultaneously measured, it is more likely to increase the probability of copying errors.

Therefore, many new measurement tools have been developed in the market in the past year. Taking the blood pressure machine 1 as an example, the blood pressure machine 1 has a built-in Bluetooth transmission function. Therefore, when the medical staff uses the blood pressure machine 1 to measure blood pressure for the patient, the Bluetooth connection can be established with the blood pressure machine 1 through the use of a mobile device such as a Personal Digital Assistant (PDA). Blood pressure data completed by the blood pressure machine 1 wirelessly receiving the measurement. In this way, the problem of artificially copying errors can be avoided.

However, it is quite troublesome to establish a Bluetooth connection between the two devices. The main steps are as follows: 1. The user needs to manually turn on the Bluetooth transmission function of the PDA; 2. The user controls the PDA to send a Bluetooth broadcast to search for nearby All electronic devices with Bluetooth transmission function; 3.PDA lists all devices in the vicinity that can establish Bluetooth connection for the user to select; 4. The user identifies the device name or serial number of the target blood pressure machine 1 in the list. And selecting the blood pressure machine 1 as a connection target; 5. PDA establishes a connection with the selected blood pressure machine 1; 6. After the connection is successful, the PDA draws blood pressure data from the blood pressure machine 1; and, 7. The user fills in the captured data into the corresponding field on the PDA.

It can be seen from the above that to establish a Bluetooth connection, the user needs to manually operate multiple steps, which is quite troublesome. Furthermore, if the medical staff simultaneously uses ten blood pressure machines of the same type to measure blood pressure data of different patients, when the PDA searches for a list of devices that can establish a Bluetooth connection nearby, ten identical device names or Serial number. In this case, it is difficult for the medical staff to confirm which device name corresponds to which blood pressure machine, and there will be a selection error, resulting in a problem of the patient's data recording error. Therefore, the transmission of the above measurement data through Bluetooth may bring more trouble to the user.

Therefore, the market should provide a novel method and an electronic device using the method, which enables the user to easily retrieve external data through Bluetooth transmission without excessive manual operation and no data transcription error. Or the problem of incorrect connection selection is generated.

The main purpose of the present invention is to provide a wireless data acquisition method for external data, an electronic device and an application thereof, which are used by an electronic device to quickly and automatically establish a Bluetooth connection with an external device to quickly and wirelessly retrieve the external device. The data in .

In order to achieve the above object, the present invention reads an external message in a contactless manner through an electronic device, and discriminates an external access device's media access control address (MAC) by the read external message. Address). Then, the electronic device automatically establishes a Bluetooth connection with the external device through the obtained media access control address, and wirelessly retrieves the required data in the external device.

The effect achieved by the present invention over the prior art is that when the user wants to obtain data in the external device, the user can quickly retrieve the required data through Bluetooth transmission, and no longer need to record with paper or pen. There will be no human error in copying errors.

Moreover, when the user uses the electronic device and retrieves the data of the external device through Bluetooth transmission, the Bluetooth transmission unit of the electronic device does not need to be manually turned on, and is not used for searching for multiple Bluetooth devices. The external device that looks for the target in one stroke. In this way, not only can the lengthy operation steps be saved to save the operation time, but also the human error caused by the manual operation of the user can be eliminated.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION A preferred embodiment of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the drawings.

Referring first to the second drawing, a block diagram of a preferred embodiment of the present invention is shown. The present invention is mainly an electronic device 3 that can perform a wireless data acquisition method of external data through an application A1 stored therein. The electronic device 3 has a display screen 31, a contactless reading unit 32, and a micro control. The unit 33, a Bluetooth transmission unit 34, and a memory unit 35, wherein the micro control unit 33 is electrically connected to the display screen 31, the contactless reading unit 32, the Bluetooth transmission unit 34, and the memory unit 35. And the application A1 is stored in the memory unit 35.

The non-contact reading unit 32 is mainly used to read an external message (for example, the external messages 51 to 56 shown in the fifth to the ninth figures) in a non-contact manner, and the external message 51 will be described later in the specification. For example, an example). It is worth mentioning that the electronic device 3 can also have at least one control button 36 electrically connected to the micro control unit 33. The user can press the control button 36 to activate the contactless reading unit 32 to read the external device. Message 51. Alternatively, the contactless reading unit 32 can be set to automatically turn on after the application A1 is started, and is normally executed in the background during execution of the application A1. In this way, the user does not have to manually press the control button 36 to activate the contactless reading unit 32. In addition, in the embodiment, the display screen 31 can be a touch screen, and the display screen 31 and the control button 36 can be combined, but are not limited.

After the external message 51 is read, it is transmitted to the micro control unit 33, and the micro control unit 33 first determines whether the external message 51 includes an external device (for example, the external device 4 shown in the fifth figure). A Media Access Control Address (MAC Address) (such as MAC Address 61 shown in Figure 5).

The Bluetooth transmission unit 34 provides a wireless transmission function of the electronic device 3, after the micro control unit 33 successfully obtains the MAC Address 61 of the external device 4 from the external message 51 (more specifically, the external device 4 The MAC address of the Bluetooth transmission unit (not shown) controls the Bluetooth transmission unit 34 to be turned on, and automatically establishes a Bluetooth connection with the external device 4 according to the obtained MAC Address 61. The advantage is that the Bluetooth pairing is performed by the known MAC Address 61, and the electronic device 3 will only perform Bluetooth pairing with the owner of the MAC Address 61, ie, the external device 4, and will not search for all nearby connected devices. Then let the user manually select it. That is to say, the electronic device 3 clearly knows that the target device for establishing the Bluetooth connection is the external device 4, so that the user does not need to perform manual setting and selection, which can greatly shorten the establishment time of the Bluetooth connection.

It should be noted that in the present invention, a Bluetooth connection is mainly used as a main embodiment. However, various transmission protocols that can quickly establish a connection between two devices are applicable to the method of the present invention and should not be limited. . For example, if the external address 51 includes the MAC Address 61 of the external device 4, the electronic device 3 obtains the MAC Address 61 of the external device 4, and may also pass a transmission protocol such as Zigbee or wi-fi direct. To connect directly to the external device 4, without having to inquire about all the surrounding devices, and then filter the connection objects one by one.

The memory unit 35 can also store at least one data record page P1, and is displayed by the display screen 31. The data record page P1 mainly has a field corresponding to the data processed by the external device 4. Said). After the electronic device 3 establishes a Bluetooth connection with the external device 4, the electronic device 3 automatically retrieves the required data from the external device 4, and the micro control unit 33 depends on the type of the external device 4. The corresponding data record page P1 is opened, and the captured data is filled in the corresponding field in the opened data record page P1. In this way, the user does not have to manually input the obtained data, which is not only convenient, but also has no human error in inputting errors.

Continuing to refer to FIG. 3A, a flow chart of a preferred embodiment of the present invention. First, the electronic device 3 reads the external message 51 in a contactless manner by the contactless reading unit 32 (step S30), and then the micro control unit 33 first determines whether the external message 51 includes the external The MAC Address 61 of the device 4 (step S32).

Please refer to the fifth figure at the same time, which is a schematic diagram of external information reading according to the first preferred embodiment of the present invention. In this embodiment, the non-contact reading unit 32 can be a code reading unit 321, and the external message 51 is a piece of code data of the MAC Address 61 of the external device 4. More specifically, in the embodiment, the external message 51 is barcode data encoded by the MAC Address 61 and a Model Code 62 of the external device 4, wherein the device type number 62 is The electronic device 3 determines the type of the external device 4 (described later in detail). In the above step S30 and the step S32, the barcode reading unit 321 reads the barcode data, and determines whether the MAC address 61 of the external device 4 is included by the content of the barcode data. The bar code data can be mainly attached to the surface of the casing of the external device 4 or displayed on the screen (not shown) of the external device 4, which is not limited.

It is worth mentioning that the electronic device 3 can also be provided with an illumination unit (not shown), such as a flash. When the electronic device 3 determines that the reading is unsuccessful due to dim light, the electronic device 3 can automatically turn on the electronic device 3. The light-emitting unit performs light filling to increase the reading success rate. For example, when the caregiver reads the patient's blood pressure machine data in a dim ward, but can't turn on the light to avoid awakening the sleeping patient, the electronic device 3 cannot read the blood pressure machine smoothly. In the case of the external message 51, the electronic device 3 can automatically turn on the light-emitting unit to perform light filling in the above manner.

Please refer to the sixth figure at the same time, which is a schematic diagram of external information reading according to a second preferred embodiment of the present invention. In this embodiment, the non-contact reading unit 32 can be a radio frequency (RF) reading unit 323, and the external message 53 is recorded in a radio frequency tag (RFID tag), wherein the external The message 53 can be mainly encoded by the MAC Address 61 of the external device 4 and the device type number 62, and the radio frequency tag can be disposed in the external device 4 or attached to the surface of the casing of the external device 4, Limited.

The RF reading unit 323 can be started after the application A1 stored in the electronic device 3 is executed, and continuously sends an RF signal to search for all RF tags in the vicinity of the electronic device 3. When the user approaches the electronic device 3 to the external device 4, the radio frequency reading unit 32 can sense the presence of the radio frequency tag, and after the inquiry, receive the external message 53 recorded inside the radio frequency tag. It is worth mentioning that if the reading is performed by radio frequency, the present embodiment does not have the above-mentioned problem that the reading is failed due to the dim light, and thus it is necessary to activate the light-emitting unit to fill the light, which is a convenient method.

The difference from the Bluetooth transmission technology is that the radio frequency is a short-distance transmission technology, and the transmission range is small. Therefore, even if the radio frequency reading unit 323 is continuously turned on, and there are many radio frequency tags disposed around the electronic device 3 The external device 4, but as long as the distance is not close enough, the radio frequency reading unit 323 cannot read other radio frequency tags, so there is no need to worry about problems such as reading errors or repeated reading. It is worth mentioning that any short-distance non-contact transmission technology can be applied to the method of the present invention, such as Near Field Communication or Zigbee, etc., in this embodiment, RF technology is used in the embodiment. For example, but not limited to the scope of the patent application in this case.

Next, please refer to the seventh figure at the same time, which is a schematic diagram of external information reading according to a third preferred embodiment of the present invention. In this embodiment, the non-contact reading unit 32 is a camera unit 322, and the external message 54 can be a text message or a graphic message, which is not limited. In the above step S30, the electronic device 3 captures the external message 54 (ie, captures an image of a text message or a graphic message) through the camera unit 322, and transmits the image to the micro control unit 33. In the step S32, the micro control unit 33 performs character recognition or graphic recognition on the external message 54 to obtain the content of the message contained in the external message 54 to determine whether the external device 54 includes the external device. 4 of the MAC Address61.

In the embodiment shown in FIG. 7, the external message 54 can record the MAC Address 61 of the external device 4 and the device type number 62. Thus, when the micro control unit 33 completes the external message 54 After the character recognition or graphic recognition, the MAC Address 61 of the external device 4 and the device type number 62 can be obtained.

Referring to the eighth figure, a schematic diagram of external message reading according to a fourth preferred embodiment of the present invention is shown. In this embodiment, the non-contact reading unit 32 is a camera unit 322, and the external message 56 is mainly a QR code encoded by the MAC address 61 of the external device 4 and the device type number 62. In the above step S30, the electronic device 3 reads the QR code through the camera unit 322 and transmits it to the micro control unit 33. Next, in the step S32, the micro control unit 33 can determine whether the MAC Address 61 of the external device 4 is included by the content of the QR code.

It should be noted that, as long as the external device 4 is located in the Bluetooth connection range of the electronic device 3, the electronic device 3 can be connected to the electronic device 3. Therefore, the external messages 51-56 do not necessarily need to be attached to the electronic device 3. The surface of the casing of the external device 4. For example, the ninth figure shows a schematic diagram of external information reading according to the fifth preferred embodiment of the present invention. For example, the nursing staff of the hospital can carry a information board 560 with a plurality of the external information (the external information 56 is taken as an example) on the information board 560, and each of the external information 56 is separately recorded. Different MAC addresses of the external device 4. In this way, when the caregiver wants to read the information of the first external device, the electronic device 3 is used to read the external message 56 corresponding to the first external device on the information board 560. It is no longer necessary to look for the first external device (possibly placed on a table, a bed, a drawer or a cart, so it takes time to find). Therefore, the convenience of the caregiver can be greatly increased, and the working time and burden can be reduced.

In the embodiment of the seventh, eighth, and ninth embodiments, the electronic device 3 may also be provided with the above-mentioned light-emitting unit (not shown), and when the electronic device 3 determines that the camera unit is dim due to dim light When the 322 is unable to focus smoothly, the electronic device 3 can automatically turn on the light-emitting unit to fill light to improve the recognition success rate of the camera unit 322.

Returning to FIG. 3A, after the step S32, if the micro control unit 33 determines that the external address 51 does include the MAC Address 61 of the external device 4, the electronic device 3 further determines through the micro control unit 33. Whether or not the Bluetooth transmission unit 34 of its own is turned on (step S34). If the Bluetooth transmission unit 34 has not been turned on, the Bluetooth transmission unit 34 is controlled to be turned on (step S36). However, the electronic device 3 can also set the Bluetooth transmission unit 34 to be normally turned on. Therefore, the step S34 and the step S36 are not necessarily performed, and may not be limited thereto.

After the above steps determine that the Bluetooth transmission unit 34 is turned on, the micro control unit 33 can control the Bluetooth transmission unit 34 to directly establish a Bluetooth connection with the external device 4 through the MAC Address 61 in the external message 51. More specifically, the Bluetooth transmission unit 34 first performs Bluetooth pairing with the external device 4 through the MAC Address 61 (step S38), and automatically inputs an identification code of the external device 4 before the pairing is successful and the connection is to be made. C1 (PIN code) (step S40). The identification code C1 can be stored in the memory unit 35 in advance, and is automatically input by the electronic device 3 during the connection phase, so that the user does not need to manually input during the connection phase. After the identification code C1 is verified, the electronic device 3 can establish a Bluetooth connection with the external device 4 (step S42).

When the electronic device 3 establishes a Bluetooth connection with the external device 4, the electronic device 3 can request the required data from the external device 4 (step S44). After the electronic device 3 obtains the data transmitted from the external device 4, the electronic device 3 disconnects the connection with the external device 4 (step S46), and automatically turns off the Bluetooth transmission unit 34 on the electronic device 3. (Step S48). The advantage is that after the electronic device 3 is used, it can be quickly used to read the MAC Address of other external devices, thereby quickly establishing a Bluetooth connection with other external devices. However, the step S46 and the step S48 are not It must be implemented and should not be limited.

Continuing to refer to FIG. 3B, a flow chart of data transmission according to a preferred embodiment of the present invention. As described above, when the electronic device 3 establishes a Bluetooth connection with the external device 4 in the step S42, when the electronic device 3 is to retrieve the data from the external device 4, the external message is mainly used first. The device type number 62 of the external device 4 is obtained in 51 (step S440), whereby the micro control unit 33 can determine the type of the external device 4 by the device type number 62 (step S442). More specifically, it is determined by the device type number 62 which device the external device 4 is, such as a blood pressure machine, a blood glucose machine, a weight machine or a thermometer, and the like. After the electronic device 3 determines the type of the external device 4, the corresponding communication protocol is enabled to communicate with the external device 4 (step S444). When the electronic device 3 adopts a communication protocol understandable by the external device 4, the external device 4 can acquire the required data (step S446).

Next, the micro control unit 33 turns on a corresponding one of the data record pages P1 according to the type of the external device 4 (step S448), and fills the obtained data into the corresponding field in the data record page P1 ( Step S450). After the step S450, the electronic device 3 completes the temporary storage operation of the data, and can display the obtained data through the display screen 31 (step S452). The electronic device 3 can extract a plurality of pieces of data from the external device 4 at a time, and is not limited to one.

Please refer to FIG. 4A, FIG. 4B, FIG. 4C and FIG. 4D, respectively, which are schematic diagrams of data recording pages of the first preferred embodiment to the fourth preferred embodiment of the present invention. As shown in FIG. 4A, the electronic device 3 can mainly provide a plurality of recording pages of the data recording page P1, such as body temperature, blood pressure, respiration, blood sugar, blood oxygen, height and weight, and display on the display screen. 31. As shown in FIG. 4B, when the electronic device 3 determines that the external device 4 is an integrated temperature timer by the device type number 62, the data recording page P1 of the body temperature is automatically turned on, and after the data in the thermometer is obtained, Automatically filling in the corresponding field in the data record page P1; as shown in FIG. 4C, when the electronic device 3 determines that the external device 4 is a blood pressure machine by the device type number 62, the blood pressure is automatically turned on. The data is recorded on the page P1, and after the data in the blood pressure machine is acquired, the corresponding field in the data recording page P1 is automatically filled in; and as shown in the fourth D figure, when the electronic device 3 is replaced by the rear device type number 62 When the external device 4 is determined to be a height/weight machine, the data record page P1 of the height and weight is automatically turned on, and after the data of the height/weight machine is obtained, the corresponding field in the data record page P1 is automatically filled in. .

As mentioned above, this has the advantage that the data of different machines can be categorized without confusing the user. For example, a thermometer generally only has one temperature data, and a blood pressure machine generally has three data such as systolic pressure, diastolic pressure, and pulse. If the data is recorded on the same page, the user is likely to be confused. Furthermore, different data has different units (for example, °C and kg), and if recorded on the same page, the user may also make mistakes in the data.

For example, as shown in the fifth figure, the external device 4 is exemplified by a blood pressure machine, and the blood pressure machine is used to measure three data such as systolic blood pressure, diastolic blood pressure, and pulse of the subject. The data recording page P1 opened by the electronic device 3 is a page for recording blood pressure data, and three fields of systolic pressure, diastolic pressure, and pulse are provided thereon. After the electronic device 3 obtains the above three items of data from the external device 4, the micro control unit 33 automatically fills the three items of data into corresponding fields in the data record page P1. In this way, the trouble of the user having to manually input can be saved.

In addition to the above description of the blood vessel as the external device 4, the tenth embodiment discloses another embodiment, which is a schematic diagram of external information reading according to a sixth preferred embodiment of the present invention. In this embodiment, an electric meter is used as an external device 41, and the external device 41 has a Bluetooth transmission unit, a zigbee transmission unit or a wi-fi transmission unit. The external device 41 is provided with a radio frequency tag on the surface or the inside thereof, and the external message 53 is recorded in the radio frequency tag, and the external message 53 includes at least the MAC address 61 of the external device 41. When a meter reading person needs to record the information of the external device 41 (ie, the meter), the electronic device 3 can be used to read the external message 53 on the external device 41, and the meter can be easily obtained and recorded. Use information. Of course, the external device 41 can also record the external message by using a bar code, a text, a picture, or a QR code. In this embodiment, only the radio frequency tag is used as an example, but not limited thereto.

Continuing to refer to FIG. 11 , a schematic diagram of external information reading according to a seventh preferred embodiment of the present invention. In this embodiment, a sports watch is used as an external device 42. The external device 42 has a Bluetooth transmission unit, a zigbee transmission unit or a wi-fi transmission unit. The external device 42 is provided with the above-mentioned radio frequency tag on the surface or inside, and the external message 53 described above is recorded in the radio frequency tag. When the user is equipped with the external device 42 for exercise, the external device 42 records the state of motion of the user, such as the number of kilometers of running, and the total amount of heat consumed. When the user finishes exercising and wants to record the information of the external device 42, the electronic device 3 is used to read the radio frequency tag, thereby obtaining the external message 53 recorded in the radio frequency tag, and the external device The device 42 establishes a connection and communicates to obtain information recorded by the external device 42.

Finally, please refer to the twelfth figure, which is a schematic diagram of external information reading according to the eighth preferred embodiment of the present invention. In this embodiment, a treadmill is used as an external device 43. The external device 43 has a Bluetooth transmission unit, a zigbee transmission unit or a wi-fi transmission unit. The radio frequency tag is disposed on the surface or the inside of the external device 43, and the external message 53 is recorded in the radio frequency tag. When the user uses the external device 43, the external device 43 records the state of motion of the user, such as the number of kilometers of running, and the total amount of heat consumed. When the user finishes exercising and wants to record the information of the external device 43, the electronic device 3 is used to read the radio frequency tag, thereby obtaining the external message 53 recorded in the radio frequency tag, and the external information can be The device 43 establishes a connection and communicates to obtain information recorded by the external device 43.

It is worth mentioning that, as shown in FIG. 5, the external messages 51-56 may mainly include the MAC Address 61, the device type number 62, and a separator symbol 63. In this embodiment, the MAC address 61 and the device type number 62 can be distinguished mainly by the separation symbol 63 (for example, "**" shown in the figure, or can be blank or line feed, etc.). More specifically, the electronic device 3 can mainly preset the first 12 codes (6 Bytes) of the external messages 51-56 as the MAC Address 61, or the separation symbol 63 as the main, and the 12 in front of the separation symbol 63. The code or the rear 12 code is used as the MAC Address 61, but is not limited. By means of the separator 63, the electronic device 3 can more efficiently determine whether or not the MAC address 61 of the external device 4 is included in the external messages 51-56.

Continuing to refer to FIG. 3C, a data association flowchart of a preferred embodiment of the present invention. In the step S32 of the third A picture, the electronic device 3 determines that the external address 51 does not include the MAC Address 61 of the external device 4 (for example, the external message 51 is less than 12 codes or does not include The delimiter 63, etc., the electronic device 3 further determines whether the external ID 51 includes an identity ID 64 (step S50). If the external address 51 does not include the MAC Address 61 of the external device 4, and does not include any identity ID 64, the electronic device 3 does not process the external message 51; if the external message 51 includes one of the identity IDs 64, Then, the electronic device 3 associates the temporarily stored data with the identity ID 64 (step S52), thereby indicating that the temporarily stored data belongs to the owner of the identity ID 64.

For example, the identity ID 64 may be an ID number, but the electronic device 3 may cause the temporarily stored one or more data to be associated with the identity ID 64 at the same time, thereby indicating that the data belongs to the identity. The person with the witness number.

Please also refer to the thirteenth figure, which is a schematic diagram of the ID reading of a preferred embodiment of the present invention. As shown in the figure, after the electronic device 3 acquires the data (for example, blood pressure data) by the external device 4, it only knows which of the external devices 4 the data is generated by, but cannot know that the data is Who belongs to it. Therefore, the electronic device 3 can further read another external message (for example, the external message 53 in the tenth figure), whereby the identity ID 64 is obtained from the external message 53. The external message 53 can be recorded, for example, in a radio frequency tag, and the radio frequency tag can be carried on a patient 7, such as the owner of the identity ID 64. After the electronic device 3 obtains the identity ID 64 from the external message 53, the data can be associated with the identity ID 64, thereby indicating the data (the systolic pressure, the diastolic pressure and the systolic pressure shown in the figure). The pulse and other data belong to the patient.

Furthermore, as shown in the second figure, the identity ID 64 can also be pre-stored in the memory unit 35 of the electronic device 3, so that when the electronic device 3 obtains the required data from the external device 4, At least one of the identity IDs 64 is provided for the user to select. After the user selects one of the identity IDs 64, the electronic device 3 causes the data to be associated with the selected identity ID 64. For example, if a nurse is responsible for a ten-bed patient, the electronic device 3 assigned to the nurse can pre-record or download the identity ID 64 of the ten-bed patient, whereby the nurse can use the electronic device 3 to The data of the patients are obtained and associated with the identity IDs 64, respectively.

In another embodiment, the identity ID 64 may also correspond to a specific room or building, etc., such as a room number or an address, and does not necessarily correspond to a person. For example, after the electronic device 3 obtains the temperature data of the thermometer in a ward, the identity ID 64 representing the ward can be read to associate the temperature data with the identity ID 64 of the ward to indicate the temperature. The data is the temperature data for the ward. For another example, after the electronic device 3 obtains the power consumption data of the electricity meter of the building, the identity ID 64 representing the building may be read to associate the power consumption data with the identity ID 64 of the building. Indicates that the electricity consumption data is power consumption data of the building. However, the above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention and should not be limited thereto.

Finally, please refer to the third D diagram, which is a data uploading flowchart of a preferred embodiment of the present invention. After the electronic device 3 obtains the data, the system temporarily stores the data in the electronic device 3, and then periodically uploads the temporarily stored data to a server (not shown) on the back end through the network (steps). S60). The electronic device 3 determines whether the upload is successful (step S62). If the upload is unsuccessful, the electronic device 3 temporarily stores the data and waits for re-uploading; if the data upload is successful, the electronic device 3 deletes the temporary storage. The data is (step S64), thereby saving the storage space of the electronic device 3.

In the embodiment of the present invention, the application program A1 (Application Program) is installed in the electronic device 3, and the application program A1 records the code executable by the electronic device 3, when the electronic device 3 loads the application.
