Detailed Description

The invention is described in further detail below with reference to the drawings and examples. It is to be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are merely illustrative of the invention and are not limiting thereof. It should be further noted that, for convenience of description, only some, but not all of the structures related to the present invention are shown in the drawings.

Fig. 1 is a schematic diagram of an application scenario of a management method of an instrument synchronization group provided by the present invention. As shown in fig. 1, the control end and the instruments 1, 2, … …, N may form a synchronization group, or a synchronization system. Illustratively, the signals output by the individual instruments in the synchrony group have a correlation. Currently, when a synchrony group is established, the names of the instruments to be established are manually checked and recorded, namely, the names of the instrument 1, the instruments 2 and … … and the instrument N are manually checked, wherein the names of the instruments may be serial numbers of the instruments and the like, and the names of the instruments to be established are recorded; the control end searches all available instruments and displays information of the available instruments, such as text identifiers, icons and the like, and more particularly, the control end can display the information of the available instruments in a list form; and manually selecting the information corresponding to the instruments to be synchronized and recorded before from the information of all instruments displayed by the control end to construct a synchronization group. In the above process, the names of the instruments to be assembled into the synchronization group need to be checked and recorded manually one by one, and then the recorded names are compared at the control end to select the instruments to be assembled into the synchronization group, which has the following defects: on the one hand, the time required for manually recording the instrument to be built into the synchronous group is long, so that the efficiency of building the synchronous group is low; on the other hand, the process of manually recording the name of the to-be-added synchronization group is prone to error, and further, the process of establishing the synchronization group is prone to error.

The application provides a management method of an instrument synchronization group, which comprises the following steps: the control end sends first notification information for constructing a target synchronous group to the searched available instruments, the control end receives first confirmation information fed back by a first target instrument in the available instruments, wherein the first confirmation information is information generated by triggering a user based on prompt information generated by the first target instrument, the prompt information is information generated by the first target instrument according to the first notification information, and the control end constructs the first target instrument into the target synchronous group based on the first confirmation information. The method has the following technical effects: in the process of establishing the synchronous group, a control end sends a first notification message for establishing a target synchronous group to the available instruments, receives first confirmation information sent by a first target instrument, establishes the first target instrument as the target synchronous group based on the first confirmation message, does not need to manually record the names of the instruments to be established and select the recorded names of the instruments to be established one by one at the control end, improves the efficiency of establishing the synchronous group, and reduces the error rate in the process of establishing the synchronous group.

Fig. 2 is a flowchart illustrating a method for managing an instrument synchronization group according to an embodiment of the invention. The embodiment is suitable for a scene of establishing a synchronous group. The present embodiment describes a method for managing an instrument synchronization group provided from the perspective of a control end. The method of managing the instrument synchronization group may be performed by a management device of the instrument synchronization group, which may be implemented in software and/or hardware, which may be integrated in an electronic device, such as a computer. As shown in fig. 2, the method for managing an instrument synchronization group provided in this embodiment includes the following steps:

Step 201: the control end sends first notification information for constructing a target synchronous group to the searched available instrument.

Specifically, the control end in this embodiment may be an electronic device with processing and communication functions, for example, a computer, an upper computer, or the like. The available instruments in this embodiment refer to instruments such as arbitrary function signal generators (Arbitrary Function Generator, AFG), arbitrary waveform generators (Arbitrary Waveform Generator, AWG), oscilloscopes, synchronizers, etc., which can be organized into a synchrony group. The control end and the available instruments can communicate through wired network, wireless network and other communication modes.

Alternatively, the control side and the available instruments may communicate via a virtual instrument software architecture (Virtual Instrumentation Software Architecture, VISA) protocol.

Alternatively, the control side may search for available instruments before step 201. The specific process is as follows: when the control end needs to build the synchronous group, after the control end is started, the control end software normally operates and the instrument is started, the software of the control end can search the instruments, and all instruments conforming to a preset protocol, such as a VISA protocol, are searched. The searched instrument may be referred to as an available instrument. The available instruments in this embodiment include instruments that need to be organized into a target synchrony group, as well as instruments that do not need to be organized into a target synchrony group.

It should be noted that the control end may also search in the network, so that it may search for instruments that are not in a nearby unified lan.

In an embodiment, the control end may determine that the synchronization group needs to be established under the trigger of the user, and then start the instrument search.

In another embodiment, the control end may determine that the synchronization group needs to be established under the control of other devices, and then start the instrument search.

After the control end searches the available instruments, the information of the searched available instruments can be displayed on a screen of the control end, for example, names or icons of the available instruments are displayed, so that a user can observe the searched available instruments, and the display can be omitted. The present implementation is not limited in this regard.

After the available instruments are searched, the control end enters a mode of establishing a synchronous group. In this embodiment, the mode that the control end enters into the synchronization group means that the control end enters into a waiting state, and waits for the instrument to establish the synchronization group through a remote communication mode. If the end operation of the mode for constructing the sync group is not performed at the control end, the control end will always be in a waiting state.

After entering a mode of constructing the synchronous group, the control end sends first notification information of constructing the target synchronous group to the searched available instrument. In this embodiment, for convenience of description, a synchronization group to be built is referred to as a target synchronization group.

Step 202: the control end receives first confirmation information fed back by a first target instrument in the available instruments.

The first confirmation information is information generated by triggering the user based on prompt information generated by the first target instrument, and the prompt information is information generated by the first target instrument according to the first notification information.

Specifically, after the control end sends the first notification information, the control end may receive the first notification information by using an instrument. The available instrumentation may generate a hint information based on the first notification information.

In a first implementation manner, the members in the target synchronization group in this embodiment take the instrument as the smallest unit, that is, if a certain instrument belongs to the target synchronization group, all channels included in the instrument belong to the target synchronization group.

In this implementation, the first notification information is used to prompt the available instruments whether to participate in the building of the target synchrony group. The prompt information may be to prompt the user that the available instrument can join the target synchrony group, or to prompt the user that the available instrument cannot join the target synchrony group. The available instruments that can join the target synchrony group are referred to as the first target instrument in this embodiment. The first target instrument generates prompt information according to the first notification information. The user may trigger generation of the first confirmation information based on the prompt. The first confirmation information is used for confirming that the first target instrument participates in the establishment of the target synchronous group.

It should be noted that, an apparatus that does not need to join the target synchronization group in the available apparatuses may also feedback information for confirming that the target synchronization group is not joined to the control end after receiving the first notification information.

In a second implementation manner, the members in the target synchronization group in this embodiment may belong to different target synchronization groups with the channel of the apparatus as the minimum unit, that is, different channels of the same apparatus. The prompt message may be a channel prompting the user that the available instrument can join the target synchrony group, or a channel prompting the user that the available instrument cannot join the target synchrony group.

In the field of synchrony groups, users often do not focus on the instruments themselves in the synchrony group, but rather can treat multiple channels across the instruments as one synchrony group. Each instrument has multiple channels (e.g., 2 channels, 4 channels, 8 channels, etc.), and when a synchrony group is established, it may not be necessary that all channels be in the synchrony group, or that channels of one instrument be distributed among different synchrony groups.

Fig. 3A is a schematic diagram of the division of the sync group in minimum units of channels in the instrument. Fig. 3B is another schematic diagram of dividing the synchronization group in minimum units of channels in the instrument. Referring to fig. 3A and 3B, 3 instruments in the drawings each include 8 channels. Assume that the channels of each instrument from left to right and from top to bottom are numbered channel 1-channel 8. Wherein, channel 1-channel 8 of instrument 1, channel 1 of instrument 2, channel 2 and channel 2-channel 4 of instrument 3 belong to synchrony group 1, channel 3-channel 8 of instrument 2 and channel 1 of instrument 3 belong to synchrony group 2, channel 5-channel 8 of instrument 3 belongs to synchrony group 3.

In this implementation, the first notification information is used to prompt the user to select a target channel belonging to the first target instrument that may participate in the building of the target synchrony group. The first target instrument generates prompt information according to the first notification information. The user may trigger generation of the first confirmation information based on the prompt. The first confirmation information includes target channels confirmed by the user for participating in the construction of the target synchrony group, i.e., which channels in the first target instrument are participating in the construction of the target synchrony group.

The prompting mode of the prompting information generated by the first target instrument according to the first notification information can be one or more modes of sound, light and display words on a screen. For example, the first target instrument may display text in the screen, e.g., "the instrument may constitute a synchrony group", "the instrument channel 1-channel 5 may constitute a synchrony group", and so on.

Fig. 4 is a schematic illustration of an interface of a useful instrument. As shown in fig. 4, after the available instrument 41 receives the first notification information, on the screen 42 of the available instrument 41, a prompt message may be displayed: "join XXX synchrony group", all channels of the available instrument 41 may also be displayed. Preferably, the screen 42 may be a touch screen. The front panel 43 is provided with physical keys 44. The functions implemented by the entity keys 44 may be defined by software.

Corresponding to the first implementation described above, the user may trigger the available instrument to join, ignore, or exit the target synchrony group via the entity key 44. In this implementation, the channels in the available instrument default to a fully selected or fully unselected state.

Corresponding to the second implementation described above, the user may select a target channel for participating in the construction of the target synchronization group by touching the screen 42.

Of course, FIG. 4 is merely an exemplary illustration, and the user may trigger the operation by other means, such as operating a touch screen to trigger the available instrument to join, ignore or exit the target synchrony group, and operating an entity key to select a target channel for participating in the construction of the target synchrony group.

Step 203: the control end establishes the first target instrument as a target synchronous group based on the first confirmation information.

Specifically, corresponding to the first implementation manner in step 202, after receiving the first acknowledgement information, the control end configures the available instruments that have fed back the first acknowledgement information, i.e., the first target instruments, as the target synchronization group.

Corresponding to the second implementation manner in step 202, after receiving the first acknowledgement information, the control end sets up the target channels as a target synchronization group according to the target channels included in the first acknowledgement information.

The second implementation manner in step 202 realizes that the channel of the instrument is used as the minimum unit to construct the synchronous group, breaks the instrument barrier, has smaller minimum unit in the synchronous management manner, and improves the flexibility of synchronous group division.

According to the management method for the instrument synchronous group, the control end can send the first notification information for establishing the synchronous group to the available instruments, and each available instrument agrees with or exits from the device through one key, so that the current process of manually recording the names of the instruments to be established and selecting the recorded names of the instruments to be established one by one at the control end is optimized, the workload is reduced, the efficiency of establishing the synchronous group is improved, and meanwhile, the error rate in the process of establishing the synchronous group is reduced. The method provided by the embodiment is more prominent when the number of first target instruments is larger.

It should be noted that, when a plurality of target synchronization groups need to be built, the steps 201 to 203 are repeated.

After the target synchronization group is built, the control end can perform secondary management on the target synchronization group, for example, adding members in the target synchronization group and removing members of the target synchronization group.

Optionally, after step 203, the device synchronization group management method provided in this embodiment may further include: the control end sends second notification information for joining the target synchronous group to the available instrument; the control end receives second confirmation information fed back by a second target instrument in the available instruments; the second confirmation information is information sent to the control end under the triggering of the user after the second target instrument receives the second confirmation information; and the control end adds a second target instrument into the target synchronous group based on the second confirmation information.

The above procedure enables the addition of a second target instrument to the target synchrony group. In this embodiment, the instrument to be added to the target synchronization group is referred to as a second target instrument.

Corresponding to the two implementations in step 202, the second notification information may also have two implementations: in one implementation, the second notification information is used for prompting whether the available instrument joins the target synchronization group, and correspondingly, the second confirmation information is used for confirming that the second target instrument joins the target synchronization group; in another implementation, the second notification information is used to prompt the user to select a target channel belonging to the second target instrument that can join the target synchronization group, and correspondingly, the second confirmation information includes the target channel that is confirmed by the user and is used to join the target synchronization group.

The mode of adding the second target instrument into the target synchronous group is simple to realize, the name of the second target instrument is not needed to be recorded manually, the second target instrument is selected to be added into the target synchronous group at the control end, the efficiency of adding the instrument into the target synchronous group is improved, and meanwhile, the error rate is reduced.

Optionally, after step 203, the device synchronization group management method provided in this embodiment may further include: the control end moves out a third target instrument from the target synchronous group; or the control end receives information which is sent by the third target instrument and requests to move out of the target synchronous group.

Specifically, in one implementation, the control end may select the third target instrument and move it out of the target synchronization group. After the third target instrument is removed from the target synchronization group, the control end may send a message to the third target instrument to notify that the third target instrument is removed from the target synchronization group, or may not notify the third target instrument. In another implementation manner, a third target instrument in the first target instruments can send information requesting to be moved out of the target synchronous group to the control end under the triggering of a user.

The above procedure enables the removal of the third target instrument from the target synchrony group.

Corresponding to two implementations in step 202: in one implementation, the control end may implement removing the third target instrument from the synchrony group; in another implementation, the control end may implement removing the channel in the third target instrument from the synchrony group.

The mode of moving out the third target instrument from the target synchronous group is simple to realize, the name of the third target instrument is not needed to be recorded manually, and then the third target instrument is selected to be moved out at the control end, so that the efficiency of moving out the instrument from the target synchronous group is improved, and meanwhile, the error rate is reduced.

The embodiment provides a management method of an instrument synchronization group, which comprises the following steps: the control end sends first notification information for constructing a target synchronous group to the searched available instruments, the control end receives first confirmation information fed back by a first target instrument in the available instruments, wherein the first confirmation information is information generated by triggering a user based on prompt information generated by the first target instrument, the prompt information is information generated by the first target instrument according to the first notification information, and the control end constructs the first target instrument into the target synchronous group based on the first confirmation information. The method has the following technical effects: in the process of establishing the synchronous group, a control end sends a first notification message for establishing a target synchronous group to an available instrument, receives first confirmation information sent by a first target instrument, establishes the first target instrument as the target synchronous group based on the first confirmation message, and does not need to manually record the names of the instruments to be established and select the recorded names of the instruments to be established one by one at the control end, thereby avoiding the workload brought by users in the process of establishing the target synchronous group by copying and checking information, improving the efficiency of establishing the synchronous group, and simultaneously reducing the error rate in the process of establishing the synchronous group.

Fig. 5 is a flowchart illustrating a method for managing an instrument synchronization group according to another embodiment of the present invention. In this embodiment, on the basis of the embodiment shown in fig. 2 and various alternatives, a detailed description is made of the steps of renaming a channel and acquiring hierarchical information when a member in the target synchronization group uses the channel of the apparatus as a minimum unit. Only steps other than steps 201 to 203 are shown in this embodiment.

Step 501: and renaming the target channel by the control end according to a preset rule.

The renamed target channel name is used for indicating a target synchronous group to which the target channel belongs.

Step 502: and the control end sends the corresponding renamed target channel name to the first target instrument.

Specifically, step 501 is a step subsequent to step 202. That is, the control end renames the target channel before the target sync component is established.

Step 501 may also be a step subsequent to step 203. That is, after the target synchronization is established, the control end renames the target channel. Optionally, the preset rule may include: identification of the synchronization group and numbering of channels in the synchronization group.

FIG. 6A is a schematic diagram of a first target instrument prior to renaming a target channel. As shown in fig. 6A, the channel name in the instrument 1 is: instrument 1-channel number, channel name in instrument 2: instrument 2-channel number, channel name in instrument 3: instrument 3-channel number. Since the channel names of each instrument are identical, the slave instrument itself cannot directly determine the synchronization group to which the channels in the instrument belong.

FIG. 6B is a diagram of the first target instrument after renaming the target channel. Fig. 6B is the same as the division of the synchronization group shown in fig. 3A and 3B. As shown in fig. 6B, the channel name in the instrument 1 is: synchrony group 1-channel 1, synchrony group 1-channel 2, synchrony group 1-channel 3, synchrony group 1-channel 4, synchrony group 1-channel 5, synchrony group 1-channel 6, synchrony group 1-channel 7, and synchrony group 1-channel 8, the channel names in instrument 2 being: synchrony group 1-channel 9, synchrony group 1-channel 10, synchrony group 2-channel 1, synchrony group 2-channel 2, synchrony group 2-channel 3, synchrony group 2-channel 4, synchrony group 2-channel 5, and synchrony group 2-channel 6, the channel names in instrument 3 being: synchrony group 2-channel 7, synchrony group 1-channel 11, synchrony group 1-channel 12, synchrony group 1-channel 13, synchrony group 3-channel 1, synchrony group 3-channel 2, synchrony group 3-channel 3, and synchrony group 3-channel 4.

It can be seen that the renamed destination channel name may indicate the destination synchronization group to which the destination channel belongs. Thus, when viewing the information from the instrument perspective, it is obvious which synchrony group the channel belongs to.

When the target channel is specifically renamed, the control end can select the target channel to be renamed under the triggering of the user, and then select the renaming option, and then the control end can display the preset universal character string corresponding to the target synchronous group to which the target channel belongs in the name column of the target channel. And the control end receives the channel number after the universal character string input by the user and completes renaming the target channel. With continued reference to fig. 6B, the universal string corresponding to the sync group 1 may be "sync group 1-channel", the universal string corresponding to the sync group 2 may be "sync group 2-channel", and the universal string corresponding to the sync group 3 may be "sync group 3-channel".

In addition, in the management mode taking the channel as the minimum unit, each channel can be renamed independently in the asynchronous group, so that the effect of realizing name identification and remarking independently for each channel can be realized. For example: a certain channel is named as "xxx external signal source-do not modify", "in the present channel signal test", "present channel output has problem" to prompt the user.

Under the traditional condition, the minimum unit of the management instrument only reaches the instrument, so that the problem of confusion of channel names in the synchronous group can be caused, the target channels in the target synchronous group can be renamed by the steps, so that the target channels belonging to different target synchronous groups in the same first target instrument can be distinguished, and when information is checked from the instrument angle, a user can conveniently judge which synchronous group the channels belong to, and the user experience is improved.

Alternatively, the synchronization group may be controlled by a cascade of multi-stage synchronous machines. Fig. 7 is a schematic diagram of a synchronization group for cascade control of a multi-stage synchronous machine. As shown in fig. 7, the synchronization group includes a primary synchronization machine and a two-stage synchronization machine, wherein the primary synchronization machine 1 is a primary synchronization machine, and the primary synchronization machine 2 is a two-stage synchronization machine. The synchronous instrument 1-3 is connected with the control end through a primary synchronous machine. The two-stage synchronous machine is also connected with the slave synchronous machine. The synchronous instrument 4-6 is connected with the control end through the slave synchronous machine 1 and the master synchronous machine 2. The synchronous instrument 7-9 is connected with the control end through the slave synchronous machine 2 and the master synchronous machine 2. The synchronous machine and the control terminal can be connected by a local area network (Local Area Network, LAN) and/or a universal serial bus (Universal Serial Bus, USB).

The master synchronizer, the slave synchronizer, and the synchronization apparatus may be referred to as a first target apparatus. As shown in fig. 7, the first target instrument includes: a fourth target instrument (e.g., master synchronizer 1 and master synchronizer 2) directly connected to the control terminal, and a fifth target instrument (slave synchronizer 1, slave synchronizer 2, synchronization instrument 4-synchronization instrument 9) connected to the control terminal through the fourth target instrument. After step 203, the method further comprises the following steps:

step 503: the control end sends the hierarchical information acquisition information to a first target instrument in the target synchronous group.

Step 504: and the control end receives the level information fed back by the fourth target instrument.

Wherein the hierarchy information includes at least one of: a connection port number of the fourth target instrument, a name of the fourth target instrument, a channel name of a fifth target instrument connected to the fourth target instrument, and a name of the fifth target instrument.

The connection port number of the fourth target instrument may refer to a port number of the fourth target instrument connected to the control end, or may refer to a port number of the fourth target instrument connected to the fifth target instrument.

It should be noted that there is no timing relationship between step 503 and step 501.

In step 503, after each end instrument receives the hierarchical information acquisition information, the local information, for example, the channel name and the instrument name, is reported to the synchronous machine; the synchronous machine reports the received information and the local information, such as a connection port number, a synchronous machine name and the like, to a superior instrument; and so on, the information is packed and transferred until the control end receives the completed level information. In other words, if the fifth target instrument includes a plurality of levels, after receiving the level information acquisition information, the fifth target instrument at the end reports the channel name and the instrument name to the fifth target instrument at the previous level, and the fifth target instrument at the previous level reports the received information and the local information to the fifth target instrument at the previous level, … …, until reporting to the fourth target instrument, and the fourth target instrument reports the received level information and the local information to the control end. As shown in fig. 7, the acquired hierarchical information may be: the main synchronous machine 2-the auxiliary synchronous machine 1-the synchronous instrument 6-the channel 3, and the positioning function of the channel is indirectly realized.

Alternatively, the control terminal may display the hierarchical information in the screen after acquiring the hierarchical information.

It should be noted that, the channel name reported here may be a default name of the instrument channel, or may be a renamed channel name.

The control end can locate the target channel by reporting the level information, namely, the connection mode, the connection state, the connection interface position and the like of the target channel are determined, so that a topological graph of the synchronous group is constructed, and the subsequent specific channel management is facilitated, for example, the topological graph is used as the basis of signal adjustment.

In this embodiment, the control end may manage the synchronization group with the channel as the minimum unit, and is divided into two forms:

first kind: after the synchronous group is built by taking the instrument as a unit, switching to a channel mode for display;

second kind: the synchronous groups are built up in units of channels and displayed in a channel manner.

In displaying the members of the target synchrony group, the display may be performed in at least one of two implementations:

the control end displays the members of the target synchronous group by taking the channel as the minimum unit aiming at each first target instrument; or (b)

And the control end displays the members of the target synchronous group by taking the channel as the minimum unit aiming at the target synchronous group.

Fig. 8A is a schematic diagram showing members of the target synchrony group in minimum units of channels for each first target instrument. Assuming that channels 1, 2 in instrument 2 belong to synchrony group 1, channel 3-channel 8 belong to synchrony group 2. Assuming that the target synchronization group is synchronization group 1, the manner of display is as shown in fig. 8A.

Fig. 8B shows members of the target sync group in the smallest unit of a channel for the target sync group. As shown in fig. 8B, for each target sync group, all target channels that it includes are displayed. Shown in fig. 8B is the default name of the target channel. Of course, the name after channel renaming may also be displayed.

According to the instrument synchronization group management method provided by the embodiment, the target channels are renamed, so that the states and functions of the target channels can be distinguished more conveniently on the basis of flexibly building the synchronization groups, the hierarchical information of the target channels is acquired, the connection hierarchical structure of the target synchronization groups can be known conveniently, and convenience is brought to the subsequent synchronization group building and problem investigation.

Fig. 11 is a flowchart illustrating a method for managing an instrument synchronization group according to another embodiment of the present invention. The embodiment is suitable for a scene of establishing a synchronous group by taking a channel as a minimum unit. The present embodiment describes a method for managing an instrument synchronization group provided from the perspective of a control end. The method of managing the instrument synchronization group may be performed by a management device of the instrument synchronization group, which may be implemented in software and/or hardware, which may be integrated in an electronic device, such as a computer. As shown in fig. 11, the method for managing an instrument synchronization group provided in this embodiment includes the following steps:

step 1101: and the control end sends first notification information for constructing the target synchronous group to the searched available channel.

In this embodiment, the control end may send first notification information for constructing the target synchronization group to the searched available channel.

In one implementation, before step 1101, the control end may acquire the level information, i.e. complete the channel positioning. Then, the resources are listed by taking the channels as units, the display form is changed into a list of channel names and hierarchy information, and not a list of instrument names, so that the channels are conveniently identified. And then sending first notification information for constructing the target synchronous group to the available channel. In the embodiment, the information of each channel is stored at the instrument end by using software, so that the control end manages the synchronous network by taking the channel as the minimum unit. In operation, the channel positions are positioned first, the channel hierarchical relationship is acquired, and then the synchronous group is built by taking the channel as a unit.

In another implementation, the control end may search for available channels.

Further, the control end may send first notification information for constructing the target synchronization group to a first target channel in the searched available channels.

Step 1102: the control end receives first confirmation information fed back by a first target instrument where a first target channel in the available channels is located.

The first target instrument may generate the hint information based on the first notification information after receiving the first notification information. The user triggers generation of the first confirmation information based on the prompt. The implementation of the prompt message is similar to that described in step 202, and will not be repeated here.

The first confirmation information in this embodiment includes a first target channel confirmed by the user for participating in the construction of the target synchronization group. The available channels that can be added to the target sync group are referred to as the first target channel in this embodiment.

Step 1103: the control end establishes the first target channel as a target synchronous group based on the first confirmation information.

After receiving the first confirmation information, the control end establishes the first target channels as target synchronous groups according to the first target channels included in the first confirmation information.

When a plurality of target synchronization groups need to be established, the steps 1101 to 1103 are repeated.

The method for managing the instrument synchronous group provided by the embodiment realizes the establishment of the synchronous group by taking the channel of the instrument as the minimum unit, breaks the instrument barrier, has smaller minimum unit in the synchronous management mode, improves the flexibility of dividing the synchronous group, and has higher efficiency and lower error rate in the establishment process.

Further, after step 1103, the device synchronization group management method provided in the present embodiment may further include the following steps: the control end sends a second notification message for joining the target synchronous group to the available channel; the control end receives second confirmation information fed back by a second target instrument where a second target channel to be added is located in the available channels; the second confirmation information is information sent to the control end under the triggering of the user after the second target instrument where the second target channel is located receives the second confirmation information; and the control end adds the second target channel into the target synchronous group based on the second confirmation information.

The above procedure enables the addition of the second target channel to the target synchronization group.

The mode of adding the second target channel in the target synchronous group realizes adding members in the target synchronous group by taking the channel as the minimum unit, and improves the flexibility of the management of the synchronous group.

Further, after step 1103, the device synchronization group management method provided in the present embodiment further includes the following steps: the control end moves out a third target channel from the target synchronous group; or the control end receives information of a request for moving out the third target channel from the target synchronous group, wherein the information is sent by a third target instrument where the third target channel is located.

Specifically, in one implementation, the control end may select the third target channel and move it out of the target synchronization group. After the third target channel is removed from the target synchronization group, the control end may send a message to the third target instrument to notify that the third target channel is removed from the target synchronization group, or may not notify the third target instrument. In another implementation manner, the third target instrument where the first target channel is located may send, under the trigger of the user, information requesting to remove the third target channel from the target synchronization group to the control end.

The method for moving out the third target channel in the target synchronous group realizes that the members are moved out of the target synchronous group by taking the channel as the minimum unit, and improves the flexibility of the management of the synchronous group.

Further, after step 1103, the device synchronization group management method provided in the present embodiment further includes the following steps: the control end renames the first target channel according to a preset rule; the renamed first target channel name is used for indicating a target synchronous group to which the first target channel belongs; and the control end sends the corresponding renamed first target channel name to the first target instrument.

Optionally, the preset rule includes: identification of the target synchronization group and numbering of channels in the target synchronization group.

The renamed first target channel name may indicate a target synchronization group to which the first target channel belongs. Thus, when viewing the information from the instrument perspective, it is obvious which synchrony group the channel belongs to.

When the method is specifically renamed, the control end can select a first target channel to be renamed under the triggering of a user, then select a renaming option, and then the control end can display a preset universal character string corresponding to a target synchronous group to which the first target channel belongs in a name column of the first target channel. And the control end receives the channel number after the universal character string input by the user and completes renaming the first target channel.

The above steps can rename the first target channels in the target synchronous groups to distinguish the first target channels belonging to different target synchronous groups in the same first target instrument, and are convenient for a user to judge which synchronous group the channels belong to when information is checked from the instrument angle, so that user experience is improved.

Similar to the embodiment shown in fig. 5, in this embodiment, the control end may also acquire the hierarchy information. The method comprises the following specific steps:

the control end sends hierarchical information acquisition information to a first target channel in a target synchronous group;

If a first target instrument where the first target channel is located is directly connected with the control end, the control end receives first level information fed back by the first target instrument; wherein the first hierarchical information includes at least one of: the channel name of the first target instrument and the name of the first target instrument;

if the first target instrument where the first target channel is located is not directly connected with the control end, the control end receives second-level information fed back by a fourth target instrument directly connected with the control end; wherein the second level information includes at least one of: the connection port number of the fourth target instrument, the name of the fourth target instrument, the channel name of the first target instrument connected to the control terminal through the fourth target instrument, and the name of the first target instrument.

In a scenario that the first target instrument where the first target channel is located is not directly connected to the control end, the first target instrument where the first target channel is located needs to send the local information to the fourth target instrument. The specific implementation process is similar to that described in step 503 and step 504, and will not be repeated here.

Further, the control end displays the members of the target synchronous group by taking the channel as the minimum unit aiming at each first target instrument; and/or, the control end displays the channels included in the target synchronous group by taking the channels as the minimum unit aiming at the target synchronous group. The specific display manner is shown in fig. 8A and 8B, and will not be described here again.

According to the instrument synchronization group management method, the first target channels are renamed, the states and functions of the first target channels can be distinguished more conveniently on the basis of flexibly building the synchronization groups, the hierarchical information of the first target channels is acquired, the connection hierarchical structure of the target synchronization groups can be known conveniently, and convenience is brought to the subsequent building and problem investigation of the synchronization groups.
