Abstract
The present invention relates to a method for configuring, a method for monitoring and a method for controlling at least one home-automation system of a building, said home-automation system comprising a plurality of home-automation devices, wherein each home-automation device is represented by at least one instance of a generic device model (GDM) and least one instance of a low-level device model (RDM), the method being executed by a CPU connected to the at least one home-automation system and comprising the following steps: determination of a status, model or control conversion that converts status, model or control variables between the low-level model and the generic model.
Claims21
A method for monitoring at least one home automation installation of a building, the home automation installation comprising a plurality of home automation devices (D), each home automation device (D) being represented by at least one generic device model instance (GD) and at least one low-level device model instance (RD);
- the method being executed by a management unit (Sv) connected to the at least one home automation installation and comprising the following steps:
- i. Reception (ESES1) of a status notification message (MS) coming from a central control unit (U) of a home automation installation containing an indication regarding at least one low-level status variable (RS) of a home automation device (D);
- ii. Determination (ESES2) of the at least one low-level device model instance (RD) representing the home automation device (D);
- iii. Determination (ECES4) of a status conversion (CvS) converting the at least one low-level status variable (RS) into at least one generic status variable (GS) on the basis of at least one status conversion rule (SCR) selected according to the at least one low-level status variable (RS) or its type (RSID);
- iv. Determination (ESES5) of the at least one generic device model instance (GD) for the at least one low-level device model instance (RD) determined at step ii;
- v. Update (ECES6) of the at least one generic status variable (GS) of the at least one generic device model instance (GD) determined at step iv according to the status conversion (CvS) determined at step iii.
A method for controlling at least one home automation installation of a building, the home automation installation comprising a plurality of home automation devices (D), each home automation device (D) being represented by at least one generic device model instance (GD) and at least one low-level device model instance (RD);
- the method being executed by a management unit (Sv) connected to the at least one home automation installation and comprising the following steps:
- i. Reception (ECES1) of a command message (MC) coming from a user (Usr) or an application (A) on the management unit (Sv) or on another connected management unit, the command message corresponding to a generic command (GC) relating to a home automation device (D);
- ii. Determination (ECES2) of the at least one generic device model instance (GD) representing the home automation device (D);
- iii. Determination (ECES3) of the at least one low-level device model instance (RD) for the at least one generic device model instance (GD);
- iv. Determination (ECES4) of a command conversion (CvC) converting the at least one generic command (GC) into at least one low-level command (RC) on the basis of at least one command conversion rule (CCR) selected according to the at least one generic command (GC) or its name (GCID);
- v. Sending (ECES5, ECES6, ECES8) at least one low-level command message (MRC) comprising the at least one low-level command (RC) obtained by the command conversion (CvC) determined at step iv, toward a central control unit (U) of the home automation installation so as to trigger the execution of at least one real command corresponding to the at least one low-level command (RC) on the home automation device (D) corresponding to the low-level instance (GD) determined at step iii.
A method for configuring at least one home automation installation of a building, the home automation installation comprising a plurality of home automation devices (D), each home automation device (D) being represented by at least one generic device model instance (GD) and at least one low-level device model instance (RD);
- the method being executed by a management unit (Sv) connected to the at least one home automation installation and comprising the following steps:
- i. Reception (ECfESI) of a configuration message (MCf) emitted from a central control unit (U) of a home automation installation or a user terminal (T), the message (Mcf) containing an indication on a commissioning, a configuration or a reconfiguration of a home automation device (D);
- ii. Determination of at least one low-level device model class or type (RDT) corresponding to the home automation device (D);
- iii. Creation (ECfES2) of at least one low-level device model instance (RD) according to the low-level device class or type (RDT) defined at step ii and corresponding to the home automation device (D);
- iv. Determination (ECfS3) of a model conversion (CvM) converting a low-level device type or class (RDT) into at least one generic device model class or type (GDT) on the basis of a model conversion rule (MCR) selected according to the low-level device model instance (RD) determined at step iii or its type (RDT);
- v. Creation (ECfES4) of at least one generic device model instance (GD) for the at least one low-level device model instance (RD) on the basis of the at least one type or class (GDT) corresponding to the model conversion (CvM) determined at step iv.
