实施例一
本申请实施例提供了一种驱动程序安装方法,如图1所示,在驱动安装设备与外围设备建立通信连接后,该方法包括以下步骤:
101、驱动安装设备获取外围设备支持的接口类型。
具体的,由于不同的外围设备支持不同的接口类型,在驱动安装设备对外围设备的驱动程序进行安装时,需要通过外围设备支持的接口来进行安装驱动程序,因此,在驱动安装设备与外围设备建立通信连接后,驱动安装设备需要先获取到该外围设备支持的接口类型,以使驱动安装设备根据外围设备支持的接口类型,进行相应的设置并安装驱动程序。其中,接口类型指设备之间连接时所采用的接口种类,不同的接口类型对应的数据传输的最大带宽不同,即瞬间所能传输的最大数据量。
需要注意的是,驱动安装设备可以包括计算机设备,例如,个人电脑,外围设备可以包括打印机和扫描仪等,驱动安装设备与外围设备建立的通信连接可以是有线通信连接,例如,可以通过USB(Universal Serial Bus,通用串行总线)接口建立驱动安装设备与外围设备之间的通信连接。
102、驱动安装设备判断接口类型中是否包括无线接口。
103、如果接口类型中包括无线接口,驱动安装设备自动对外围设备设置无线连接,并且对外围设备的驱动程序进行安装。
具体的,安装驱动设备需要通过无线方式控制外围设备时,不仅需要安装外围设备的驱动程序还需要设置外围设备的无线连接,在对外围设备的驱动程序进行安装时,确定出接口类型中包括无线接口后,即外围设备支持无线接口,驱动安装设备可以自动对外设设备设置无线连接,并且对外围设备的驱动程序进行安装,由于在对外围设备设置无线连接和安装驱动程序时,无需用户手动操作,减少了手动操作时的繁琐步骤,以及减少了整个过程中消耗的时长,提高了设置无线连接和安装驱动程序时的效率。
在一个可行的实施方案中,在确定出外围设备支持无线接口后,驱动安装设备还需要判断外围设备中是否存储有无线设定信息,如果外围设备中存储有无线设定信息,驱动安装设备需要进一步判断外围设备中存储的无线设定信息与自身存储的无线设定信息是否相同,并且在外围设备中存储的无线设定信息与自身存储的无线设定信息相同时,驱动安装设备与外围设备进行无线通信,其中无线设定信息为外围设备实现无线通信(即连接无线接入点)时所需要的无线设定信息。其中,无线设定信息可以包括服务集标识符、工作模式(例如自组织模式、基础结构模式,等等)、加密、网络国际互联网协议地址等等。
具体的,驱动安装设备需要确定出外围设备是否能够接入其当前接入的无线接入点,只有驱动安装设备和外围设备能够接入同一个无线接入点时,二者之间才可以进行无线通信,以及进行对外围设备的驱动程序进行安装的操作,因此驱动安装设备需要判断外围设备中是否存储有无线设定信息,以及该无线设定信息是否与自身存储的无线设定信息相同,即判断外围设备是否能够与驱动安装设备接入相同的无线接入点,当外围设备中存储的无线设定信息与自身存储的无线设定信息相同时,表示外围设备能够与驱动安装设备接入相同的无线接入点,进而使驱动安装设备和外围设备进行无线 通信。
在一个可行的实施方式中,在驱动安装设备判断外围设备中是否存储有无线设定信息时,驱动安装设备可以向外围设备发送请求信息,外围设备根据该请求信息,判断自身是否存储有无线设定信息,当外围设备存储有无线设定信息时,向驱动安装设备返回指示外围设备中存储有无线设定信息的响应消息,当外围设备没有存储无线设定信息时,向驱动安装设备返回指示外围设备中没有存储有无线设定信息的响应消息,驱动安装设备可以根据响应消息,判断外围设备中是否存储有无线设定信息;或者,在驱动安装设备与外围设备建立通信连接后,外围设备向驱动安装设备发送自身是否存储有无线设定信息的指示消息,驱动安装设备根据该指示消息,判断外围设备中是否存储有无线设定信息。
在一个可行的实施方案中,在确定出外围设备中存储的无线设定信息与自身存储的无线设定信息不相同时,驱动安装设备需要将自身存储的无线设定信息发送给外围设备,以使外围设备根据驱动安装设备发送的无线设定信息接入无线接入点,与外围设备进行无线通信。
具体的,当外围设备中存储的无线设定信息与驱动安装设备存储的无线设定信息不相同时,表示外围设备可以接入无线接入点,但是外围设备能够接入的无线接入点与驱动安装设备能够接入的无线接入点不相同,为了保证外围设备和驱动安装设备能够接入同一个无线接入点进行无线通信,驱动安装设备需要将自身存储的无线设定信息发送给外围设备,外围设备根据该无线设定信息接入对应的无线接入点,从而使得驱动安装设备和外围设备进行无线通信,进一步的,在外围设备能够接入的无线接入点与驱动安装设备能够接入的无线接入点不同时,需要对外围设备进行无线设置,以使外围设备能够接入的无线接入点与驱动安装设备能够接入的无线接入点相同,在本申请中由于驱动安装设备将自身存储的无线设定信息发送给外围设备,以使外围设备根据驱动安装设备发送的无线设定 信息接入无线接入点,避免了手动对外围设备进行无线设置,减少了手动操作时的繁琐步骤,提高了设置无线连接时的效率。
在一个可行的实施方案中,驱动安装设备在确定出外围设备中没有存储无线设定信息后,驱动安装设备将自身存储的无线设定信息发送给外围设备,以使外围设备根据驱动安装设备发送的无线设定信息接入无线接入点,与外围设备进行无线通信。
具体的,当外围设备中没有存储无线设定信息时,表示外围设备不能接入驱动安装设备能够接入的无线接入点时,为了使外围设备能够接入该无线接入点,驱动安装设备需要将自身的无线设定信息发送给外围设备,外围设备根据驱动安装设备发送的无线设定信息接入对应的无线接入点,从而使得驱动安装设备和外围设备进行无线通信,进一步的,在外围设备不能接入驱动安装设备能够接入的无线接入点时,需要对外围设备进行无线设置,以使外围设备能够接入驱动安装设备能够接入的无线接入点,在本申请中由于驱动安装设备将自身存储的无线设定信息发送给外围设备,以使外围设备根据驱动安装设备发送的无线设定信息接入无线接入点,避免了手动对外围设备进行无线设置,减少了手动操作时的繁琐步骤,提高了设置无线连接时的效率。
在一个可行的实施方案中,当外围设备支持的接口类型中不包括无线接口时,即外围设备不支持无线接口,驱动安装设备确定出优先级最高的接口类型,然后根据优先级最高的接口类型和优先级最高的接口类型的预设驱动安装方式,对外围设备的驱动程序进行安装。
具体的,预先设定不同接口类型的优先级,驱动安装设备可以按照该优先级,选择外围设备支持的接口类型中优先使用的接口类型,以及预先设定不同接口类型对应的驱动安装方式,在驱动安装设备确定出优先级最高的接口类型后,就可以确定该接口类型对应的驱动安装方式,然后驱动安装设备根据优先级最高的接口类型和优先级最高的接口类型对应的驱动安装方式,对外围设备的驱动程 序进行安装。在本申请实施例中,在对外围设备的驱动程序进行安装时,可以根据接口类型和该接口类型对应的驱动安装方式进行安装,因此避免了手动对外围设备设置或选择驱动安装方式,减少了手动操作时的繁琐步骤,提高了对外围设备进行驱动安装时的效率。

为了能够使外围设备执行工作,需要在驱动安装设备上安装外围设备的驱动程序,驱动安装设备获取到用户的操作指令后,通过驱动程序控制外围设备执行各种任务。另外,为了使驱动安装设备可以通过无线方式驱动外围设备执行任务,还需要对外围设备配置连接无线接入点AP1所需的无线设定信息。
在现有的技术中,都是在对外围设备安装好驱动程序后,在驱动安装设备上手动设置连接无线接入点AP1时所需要的无线设定信息,然后将该无线设定信息发送给外围设备,并且,之前已经安装好的驱动程序往往不符合具有无线接口的外围设备,因此当外围设备连接到无线接入点AP1后,驱动安装设备还需要通过网络300搜索外围设备,对已经安装的驱动程序进行变更,使之符合具有无线接口的外围设备的驱动程序。因此针对于具有无线通信功能的外围设备,在安装驱动程序过程,需要用户多次干预,并且安装时间过长。
本申请的实施例能够解决上述现有技术中安装外围设备的驱动程序时操作繁琐的问题,具体可以通过以下方法实现。
方法一:
如图6所示,图6为外围设备的驱动程序的安装方法,该方法可以包括以下步骤:
获取步骤601,在外围设备连接至驱动安装设备后,即外围设备与驱动安装设备建立通信连接,驱动安装设备获取外围设备的设备信息。
具体是,用户使用USB接口将驱动安装设备和外围设备相互连接,用户在驱动安装设备中启动外围设备安装程序4032,则驱动安装设备的控制部402通过USB接口向外围设备请求设备信息,外围设备的控制部502依据该请求,从存储部503获取设备信息5033,并通过USB接口向驱动安装设备返回外围设备的设备信息5033。
选择步骤602,驱动安装设备依据获取的设备信息从多种安装方式中选择一种安装方式。
安装步骤603,驱动安装设备依据上述选择的安装方式,对外围设备的驱动程序进行安装。
具体的,当驱动安装设获取到外围设备的设备信息5033时,驱动安装设中的控制部402依据设备信息5033,判定一种适合外围设备的安装方式;然后驱动安装设备中的控制部402依据选择的安装 方式选择符合外围设备的设备信息的驱动程序进行安装。
其中,外围设备的设备信息5033包括外围设备支持的接口类型,选择步骤602中,在用户选择安装方式之前,驱动安装设备依据外围设备支持的接口类型,自动选定与接口类型相符合的安装方式,以提供给用户进行确定。
进一步的,驱动安装设备依据上述接口类型,判定是否包括了一个特定接口,如果判断结果为是,自动选择与特定接口相符合的安装方式,以提供给用户进行确定。
具体的,驱动安装设备中的控制器402依据获取的设备信息,使外围设备安装程序4032呈现出外围设备支持的接口类型相符合的安装方式,并提供给用户,用户通过输入部406进行确定(不需要进行其他设定)后,驱动安装设备中的控制器402就可以自动对外围设备进行安装相应的驱动程序。驱动安装设备中的控制器402依据获取的设备信息发现外围设备具备无线通信部501时,则启动驱动安装设备中的存储部403中的无线设定程序4033,同时驱动安装设备中的控制器402把存储部403存储的设定信息的副本4034通过USB接口发送到外围设备,外围设备的控制器502依据接收的设定信息,与当前驱动安装设备连接的无线接入点AP1进行连接,并从无线接入点AP1接收IP地址,同时外围设备的控制器502把该IP地址通过USB接口返回到驱动安装设备,驱动安装设备中的控制器402通过驱动安装设备中的无线通信部401依据IP地址从网络300中搜索到外围设备,并为外围设备安装符合无线接口类型的驱动程序。对于整个无线设定步骤,外围设备安装程序4032只对用户呈现已经选定的安装方式,用户点击确定后,驱动安装设备中的控制器402调用无线设定程序4033自动对外围设备进行无线设定,且该无线设定信息不需要用户手动操作输入,驱动安装设备把自身存储的设定信息的副本4034传送到外围设备,使外围设备连接相同的接入点。
综上,在本申请的实施例中,当上述外围设备支持的接口类型 包括无线接口时,即无线接口,则在安装步骤603之前,还包括一个无线设定步骤,驱动安装设备向外围设备发送自身连接的接入点所需的无线设定信息,并接收外围设备返回的IP地址,安装步骤603中,依据获取的IP地址对外围设备的驱动程序进行安装。
另外,当外围设备需要在多个驱动安装设备中安装驱动程序时,比如当外围设备的驱动程序已经安装在PC1上时,同时PC1已经对外围设备进行了无线设定,外围设备把从PC1上接收的无线设定信息作为无线设定信息5031存储在存储部503中。当PC2需要使用外围设备,与外围设备进行USB连接,并对外围设备进行驱动安装时,PC2的控制器402检测到外围设备已经存储无线设定信息5031时,这时候不需要再对外围设备进行无线设定。因此,本申请的实施例在无线设定步骤之前,需要判断外围设备是否已经存储连接无线接入点AP1所需的无线设定信息,如果已经存储,则不需要进行无线设定步骤。
具体为,驱动安装设备中的控制器402在启动无线设定程序4033之前,向外围设备请求无线设定信息,如果外围设备已经存储无线设定信息5031,则返回外围设备中的存储部503中存储的无线设定信息5031,驱动安装设备中的控制器402依据外围设备返回的无线设定信息5031,并与驱动安装设备中的存储部403中存储的设定信息的副本4034进行比较,如果一致,表示外围设备已经设定好无线通信,则驱动安装设备中的控制器402不再执行外围设备的无线通信设定,从网路300中搜索外围设备,对其进行符合无线接口类型的驱动程序的安装;如果不一致或者外围设备返回没有无线设定信息的响应消息时,则驱动安装设备需要对外围设备执行无线设定步骤,使外围设备连接驱动安装设备所处的网络300,并为外围设备执行符合无线接口类型的驱动程序的安装。
因此,在本申请实施例中可以避免不同的驱动安装设备对同一的外围设备进行驱动程序安装时,重复性的对已经设定好无线连接的外围设备执行同样的无线通信设定的问题,节省了驱动程序的安 装时间。
方法二:
如图7所示,图7为驱动安装设备安装外围设备的驱动程序的流程示意图。
步骤601,驱动安装设备获取外围设备的设备信息。
本步骤与图6的步骤601一致,这里不再重复描述。
步骤701,驱动安装设备判断外围设备是否包括无线接口。
具体的,驱动安装设备的控制器402依据外围设备返回的设备信息5033,判断外围设备是否包括无线通信部501,以及判断外围设备是否具有无线通信功能,如果步骤701判断为是,则进入步骤702,如果判断结果为否进入步骤705。
步骤702,驱动安装设备判断外围是否需要无线设定。
具体是,驱动安装设备的控制器402向外围设备请求无线设定信息,如果外围设备已经存储无线设定信息5031,则返回存储部503中存储的无线设定信息5031,驱动安装设备中的控制器402依据外围设备返回的无线设定信息5031,并与驱动安装设备中的存储部403中存储的设定信息的副本4034进行比较,如果一致,表示外围设备已经设定好无线通信,则步骤702的判断结果为否,进入步骤704;如果不一致或者外围设备返回没有无线设定信息的响应消息时,则需要对外围设备执行无线设定步骤,则步骤702的判断结果为是,进入步骤703。
步骤703,无线设定。
具体的,在该步骤703中,驱动安装设备中的控制器402启动驱动安装设备中的存储部403中的无线设定程序4033,并把驱动安装设备中的存储部403中的设定信息的副本4034通过驱动安装设备中的有线通信部404传送到外围设备,外围设备的控制部502依据外围设备的有线通信部504接收设定信息的副本4034作为无线设定信息5031存储在外围设备的存储部503中,并依据外围设备的无线设定信息5031通过外围设备的无线通信部501与网络300中的AP1 进行通信,并接收AP1返回的IP地址,外围设备的控制部502通过有线通信部504传送IP地址,驱动安装设备的控制部402依据有线通信部404接收IP地址,并通过驱动安装设备中的无线通信部401搜索网络300中的外围设备与其通信。
步骤704,驱动安装设备对外围设备进行无线接口相符的驱动程序的安装。
具体的,当外围设备能够与驱动安装设备通过无线方式通信时,驱动安装设备搜索网络300中的外围设备与其通信,并使驱动安装设备中的外围设备安装程序4032执行无线接口相符的驱动程序的安装。
步骤705,判断外围设备是否仅有USB接口。
具体的,当在步骤701的判断结果为否时,表示外围设备没有无线通信功能,因此,此时对于外围设备的驱动安装方式就如现有技术中的外围设备常有的安装方式。如果步骤705判断为是时,则进入步骤706,否则进入步骤707。
步骤706,对外围设备进行USB接口相符的驱动程序的安装。
具体的,在驱动安装设备中的控制器402获取外围设备的设备信息时,检测外围设备的接口类型,发现外围设备仅支持USB接口时,使驱动安装设备中的外围设备安装程序4032选择符合USB接口的驱动程序进行安装。
步骤707,判断外围设备是否仅有有线网络接口,如果是,则进入步骤708,否则进入步骤709。
步骤708,对外围设备进行有线网络接口相符的驱动程序的安装。
具体是,驱动安装设备中的控制器402依据外围设备的设备信息,检测外围设备的接口类型,发现外围设备仅支持有线网络接口时,使驱动安装设备中的外围设备安装程序4032选择符合有线网络接口的驱动程序进行安装。
步骤709,按照接口的优先级执行步骤706或步骤708。
具体的,经过了判断步骤701、705、707后,表示外围设备没有无线通信功能,但是具有USB接口和有线网络接口。因此,可以按照预先为外围设备的接口设定的优先级别来选择驱动程序进行安装。当外围设备的设备信息或者外围设备安装程序4032中表示USB接口的优先级别比有线网络接口的优先级别高时,在步骤709中,驱动安装设备中的控制器402使用外围设备安装程序4032选择符合USB接口的驱动程序进行安装;如果有线网络接口的优先级别比USB接口的优先级别高时,则驱动安装设备中的控制器402使用外围设备安装程序4032选择符合有线网络接口的驱动程序进行安装。
从图7可以看出,对于接口的优先级,无线接口的优先级别最高,当驱动安装设备获取外围设备的设备信息,只要外围设备包括了无线接口类型,则驱动安装设备优先安装无线接口相符的驱动程序同时还对外围设备的无线通信进行了设定,因此本申请的实施例可以简单有效的对具有无线接口的外围设备的驱动程序进行安装,并不需要用户过多的干预。
下面依据显示在驱动安装设备中的输出部405上的操作界面来解释本申请的实施例。
如图8A所示,当用户启动驱动安装设备中的外围设备安装程序4032时,在驱动安装设备的输出部405显示操作页面800,在操作页面800中有一个型号显示栏801,显示栏801用于显示驱动安装设备通过USB接口连接的外围设备的型号信息。操作页面800还包括三个安装方式的图标,图标802表示USB驱动安装方式,图标803表示一键wifi驱动安装方式,图标804表示有线网络驱动安装方式,还包括一个确定按键805使用户用于确定上述的一种安装方式的选择。
当用户通过USB接口使驱动安装设备与外围设备进行连接时,操作页面800直接显示驱动安装设备依据外围设备的设备信息选定好的安装方式。如图8B所示,在安装界面800中,显示栏801自动显示当前连接外围设备的型号,并在三个安装方式的图标中,自动 选择一种安装方式,这里以外围设备支持无线通信功能为例,当驱动安装设备获取外围设备的接口类型表示有无线接口时,操作界面800直接呈现选定一键wifi驱动安装方式提供给用户,即图标803呈现被选定的黑色状态,用户点击确定按键805后,外围设备安装程序4032自动为用户安装符合外围设备的无线接口类型的驱动程序。
当呈现给用户的操作界面如图8B时,用户点击确定按键805后,驱动安装设备的控制器402执行对外围设备进行无线设定,把自身存储的设定信息4034复制到外围设备,使外围设备连接自身连接的接入点。因此在图8B中点击确认按键805后,外围设备安装程序4032调用了无线设定程序4033,该无线设定程序4033可以选择地呈现一些提醒画面给用户,比如提醒画面显示当前正进行无线设定并显示进度条。如果在执行无线设定时,外围设备没有通过USB接口连接驱动安装设备,操作页面800提醒用户连接USB后,返回到图8A所示的初始画面,当用户重新连接外围设备到驱动安装设备时,操作页面800自动显示成图8B。
另外,当驱动安装设备获取外围设备的设备信息表示只有USB接口时,如图8C所示,操作界面800直接呈现选定USB驱动安装方式提供给用户,即图标802呈现被选定的黑色状态,用户点击确定按键805后,外围设备安装程序4032自动为用户安装符合外围设备的USB接口类型的驱动程序。
当驱动安装设备获取外围设备的设备信息表示仅有有线网络接口时,如图8D所示,操作界面800直接呈现选定有线网络驱动安装方式提供给用户,即图标804呈现被选定的黑色状态,用户点击确定按键805后,外围设备安装程序4032自动为用户安装符合外围设备的有线网络接口类型的驱动程序。
因此,通过本申请,在用户指定一种安装方式之前,驱动安装设备能够依据外围设备的设备信息自动选定一种适合的安装方式呈现给用户,用户能够仅凭一键操作,就可以把外围设备的驱动程序 以及无线设定设置成功。
当驱动安装设备获取外围设备的设备信息表示有有线网络接口和USB接口时,依据接口的优先级设置,操作界面800自动显示成图8C或者图8D。
因此,对于不熟悉外围设备的技术的用户,本申请提供简便易操作的驱动程序的安装方法,而不要用户去熟悉外围设备的接口类型再选择一种安装方式来安装驱动程序,以往的技术让用户进行选择安装方式时往往由于用户不熟悉而导致选择安装方式出现错误。
另外,当操作界面800依据当前连接驱动安装设备的外围设备的设备信息自动选择三种安装方式中的一种给予用户确定时,用户还可以在图标802、803、804之间再次选择,可以不选择操作界面800自动呈现的默认图标。比如,当连接的外围设备包括无线接口,操作界面800如图8B所示,用户可以选定图标802使其变成黑色,而不再选择图标803,点击确定按键805后,外围设备安装程序4032按照USB驱动安装方式对外围设备进行驱动程序的安装。同时,操作界面800上还可以增加一个无线设定按键,供用户选择并手动设置外围设备的无线设定信息,使用户自行输入需要连接的接入点所需的无线SSID、密码等信息,当用户点击无线设定按键时,无线设定程序运行,则在操作界面800的基础上进入显示输入SSID、密码等输入框的无线设定界面供用户手动输入。因此本申请满足用户的灵活操作,特别是当用户只想把包括无线接口的外围设备与驱动安装设备进行USB连接当成本地设备使用时。
本申请的实施例在安装外围设备的驱动程序时,遇到外围设备具有无线通信功能时,在安装驱动程序的过程中,直接对外围设备连接进行无线设定,这过程中不需要用户的任何干预,用户只需要把外围设备连接到驱动安装设备,并启动外围设备安装程序后,外围设备安装程序自动依据外围设备的设备信息选择一种安装方式,用户点击确定后,就可以对外围设备的驱动程序以及无线设定一键设置成功。
