Problems solved by technology

[0007] During the research and practice of the prior art, the inventor of the present invention found that in the prior art, after the controlled device receives the pairing request message sent by the remote control, the user needs to press the pairing button on the controlled device , to determine that the controlled device is to be paired with the remote controller. Therefore, the device pairing method in the prior art requires setting a pairing button on the controlled device, and the device pairing process is generally only performed when the remote controller is used for the first time, that is, Said that the frequency of use of the pairing button of the controlled device is very low, therefore, adding buttons that are not frequently used on the controlled device does not meet the user's requirements and reduces the user experience
Moreover, in the above pairing method, the user needs to press the pairing button on the remote controller and the controlled device respectively, the operation is relatively complicated, and the requirements for the user are high, thereby reducing the user's satisfaction with the product

Embodiment Construction

[0067] In order to make the objectives, technical solutions and advantages of the present invention clearer, the present invention will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments.

[0068] The method for pairing a remote controller with a controlled device according to the embodiment of the present invention is applied to a remote controller. The remote control includes a first radio frequency interface and a first infrared interface, and the controlled device includes a second radio frequency interface and a second infrared interface. Here, the first radio frequency interface and the second radio frequency interface may both be Bluetooth interfaces, or both may be 2.4GHz RF interfaces. The controlled device may specifically be a set-top box, a television, an air conditioner, a Digital Versatile Disc (DVD, Digital Versatile Disc), or other devices that can be controlled by a remote control.

Abstract

The invention provides a method for pairing of devices, a remote controller and a controlled device. The method comprises that the remote controller controls a first radio frequency interface to enter a pairing mode; the remote controller sends a pairing command for indicating radio frequency interface pairing to the controlled device through a first infrared interface; and after the controlled device controls a second radio frequency interface to enter a pairing mode according to the received pairing command on a second infrared interface, the remote controller carries out pairing of the first radio frequency interface and the second radio frequency interface. By means of the method for pairing of the devices, the remote controller and the controlled device, user operations in the pairing process can be simplified, and device using experience of the user can be improved.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of data communication, in particular to a method for pairing a remote control with a controlled device, the remote control and the controlled device. Background technique [0002] The research and development work and product planning of radio frequency (RF) remote control are making rapid progress. Compared with infrared remote control, RF remote control has great advantages in operation freedom and bidirectionality, design freedom, data transmission rate and so on. [0003] However, unlike the infrared remote control, the use of the RF remote control requires first completing the device pairing process between the remote control and the controlled device. At present, a pairing button is set on both the remote controller and the controlled device that need to be paired. The main applied device pairing methods include: [0004] A pairing button is set on both the remote controller and the controlled device...
