本发明涉及无线网络技术领域，特别涉及一种WIFI网络模块配置方法。The invention relates to the technical field of wireless networks, in particular to a method for configuring a WIFI network module.

背景技术 Background technique

随着物联网的逐步兴起，人们对物联网智能家电的兴趣越来越高涨。对于有有线网口的家电，只要插上网线就可以连接到家庭网络。但是对于只有WIFI网络模块的物联网智能家电，首先要解决的问题就是要如何连入家庭网络，进而连接到外部互联网，WIFI网络模块需要进行网络信息配置才可以加入到家庭WIFI网络当中。With the gradual rise of the Internet of Things, people's interest in IoT smart home appliances is increasing. For home appliances with wired network ports, just plug in the network cable to connect to the home network. However, for IoT smart home appliances with only WIFI network modules, the first problem to be solved is how to connect to the home network, and then connect to the external Internet. The WIFI network module needs to be configured with network information before it can be added to the home WIFI network.

对于具有信息输入界面的家电，如：电视、带TFT显示屏的冰箱或者空调等白色家电等，WIFI网络的配置方法和在电脑上配置WIFI网络的方法大同小异。For home appliances with an information input interface, such as white goods such as TVs, refrigerators with TFT display screens, or air conditioners, the configuration method of the WIFI network is similar to the method of configuring the WIFI network on a computer.

但是，由于TFT的成本高，并不是所有的家电都具备可以输入信息的用户交互界面。对于没有输入界面的家电，如：只有按键和/或8字数码管的白色家电等，不方便或者根本就没有办法输入网络配置信息。However, due to the high cost of TFTs, not all home appliances have a user interface for inputting information. For home appliances without an input interface, such as: white goods with only buttons and/or 8-character digital tubes, etc., it is inconvenient or impossible to input network configuration information.

具体实施方式 detailed description

下面结合附图和实施例，对本发明的具体实施方式作进一步详细描述。以下实施例用于说明本发明，但不用来限制本发明的范围。The specific implementation manners of the present invention will be further described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and embodiments. The following examples are used to illustrate the present invention, but are not intended to limit the scope of the present invention.

为了实现对无配置界面家电的WIFI网络模块进行配置，本发明的方法中引入了配置终端，该配置终端为包含有WIFI功能的手机、笔记本电脑或pad。如图1所示，路由器连接家电，家电包括：家电控制器和WIFI网络模块。家电控制器主要进行家电状态的采集和负载的控制，使家电能够执行正常的运转，同时家电控制器集成或者预留了与网络模块通讯的接口。家电控制器，网络模块可以集成在一起，也可以分别独立和部分集成。家电控制器还负责控制网络模块的工作状态。网络模块负责接收了网络上发来的控制命令信息，和上传家电的状态信息。无线路由器是家庭网络的管理中心。物联网家电通过WIFI网络连接到家庭无线路由器上。具有WIFI功能的配置终端负责对家电中的无线WIFI网络模块进行网络配置。In order to configure the WIFI network module of the home appliance without a configuration interface, the method of the present invention introduces a configuration terminal, which is a mobile phone, a notebook computer or a pad including a WIFI function. As shown in Figure 1, the router is connected to the home appliance, and the home appliance includes: a home appliance controller and a WIFI network module. The home appliance controller mainly collects the status of the home appliance and controls the load, so that the home appliance can perform normal operation. At the same time, the home appliance controller integrates or reserves an interface for communicating with the network module. Home appliance controllers and network modules can be integrated together, or independently and partially integrated. The home appliance controller is also responsible for controlling the working status of the network module. The network module is responsible for receiving the control command information sent from the network, and uploading the status information of the home appliance. The wireless router is the management center of the home network. The home appliances of the Internet of Things are connected to the home wireless router through the WIFI network. The configuration terminal with WIFI function is responsible for network configuration of the wireless WIFI network module in the home appliance.

如图2所示，本发明的WIFI网络模块配置方法包括：As shown in Figure 2, the WIFI network module configuration method of the present invention comprises:

步骤S201，WIFI网络模块进入配置状态，搜索可连接的路由器，并进入路由器模式。当按动家电的开关或按键时，家电控制器发送信号至家电的WIFI网络模块，使WIFI网络模块进入配置状态，或WIFI网络模块在非配置状态下监听家电的开关或按键信号，以获取该信号，并进入配置状态，配置状态即配置WIFI网络模块连接路由器的无线网络登录密码的状态。在该状态下，WIFI网络模块会自动搜索可连接的路由器列表。In step S201, the WIFI network module enters the configuration state, searches for connectable routers, and enters the router mode. When the switch or button of the home appliance is pressed, the home appliance controller sends a signal to the WIFI network module of the home appliance to make the WIFI network module enter the configuration state, or the WIFI network module monitors the switch or button signal of the home appliance in the non-configuration state to obtain the signal, and enter the configuration state, which is the state of configuring the wireless network login password of the WIFI network module connected to the router. In this state, the WIFI network module will automatically search for a list of connectable routers.

步骤S202，该WIFI网络模块将搜索到的路由器列表传输至配置终端，配置终端将用户通过终端界面选择的路由器和输入的密码传输至WIFI网络模块。由于配置终端为包括WIFI功能的手机、笔记本电脑或pad等，即配置终端也包含相应的WIFI网络模块，配置终端中的WIFI网络模块以客户端的形式与家电中路由器模式的WIFI网络模块建立连接(采用标准的WIFI通讯协议进行连接，因为采用了标准的协议，任何支持标准WIFI协议的无线智能终端都可以连接到路由器模式的WIFI模块)。配置终端通过该连接发送指令通知家电中的WIFI网络模块发送路由器列表，家电中的WIFI网络模块接收到该指令通知后将路由器列表通过该连接发送至配置终端。配置终端将接收到的路由器列表显示在人机交互界面中供用户选择并输入密码。并将用户通过终端界面选择的路由器和输入的密码通过连接发送至家电中WIFI网络模块。Step S202, the WIFI network module transmits the searched router list to the configuration terminal, and the configuration terminal transmits the router selected by the user through the terminal interface and the password entered to the WIFI network module. Since the configuration terminal is a mobile phone, a notebook computer, or a pad including a WIFI function, that is, the configuration terminal also includes a corresponding WIFI network module, the WIFI network module in the configuration terminal establishes a connection with the WIFI network module of the router mode in the home appliance in the form of a client ( The standard WIFI communication protocol is used for connection, because the standard protocol is adopted, any wireless intelligent terminal supporting the standard WIFI protocol can be connected to the WIFI module in router mode). The configuration terminal sends an instruction through the connection to notify the WIFI network module in the home appliance to send the router list, and the WIFI network module in the home appliance sends the router list to the configuration terminal through the connection after receiving the instruction notification. The configuration terminal displays the received router list on the human-computer interaction interface for the user to select and enter a password. And the router selected by the user through the terminal interface and the password entered are sent to the WIFI network module in the home appliance through the connection.

步骤S203，家电中的WIFI网络模块接收到选择的路由器和密码后，切换到终端模式，并根据该选择的路由器和密码连接到该路由器，从而建立家电和路由器的连接，将家电接入网络。Step S203, after receiving the selected router and password, the WIFI network module in the home appliance switches to terminal mode, and connects to the router according to the selected router and password, thereby establishing a connection between the home appliance and the router, and connecting the home appliance to the network.

进一步地，为了不需要每一次在家电连接网络时都进行配置(通常某些家电都在固定位置，基本上也是连接的同一个路由器)，步骤S203之后还包括：将选择的路由器和密码以映射表的形式存储到家电中WIFI网络模块的存储器中，即家电中的WIFI网络模块的存储器中保留有一份路由器及其接入密码以映射表，该映射表存储有以往连接过的路由器及其接入密码。当家电上电时，家电的WIFI网络模块在映射表中查询是否有搜索到的路由器列表中的路由器的接入密码，若有，则直接通过该密码连接到相应的路由器，否则提醒用户操作家电执行步骤S201。这样不要每一次都配置WIFI网络模块，加快了WIFI网络模块接入路由器的过程。Further, in order not to need to configure each time the home appliance is connected to the network (usually some home appliances are in a fixed location, basically the same router that is connected), after step S203, it also includes: setting the selected router and password to the mapped The table is stored in the memory of the WIFI network module in the home appliance, that is, the memory of the WIFI network module in the home appliance retains a router and its access password and a mapping table, and the mapping table stores the previously connected router and its connection enter the password. When the home appliance is powered on, the WIFI network module of the home appliance inquires in the mapping table whether there is an access password of the router in the searched router list, if there is, it will directly connect to the corresponding router through the password, otherwise it will remind the user to operate the home appliance Execute step S201. In this way, it is not necessary to configure the WIFI network module every time, which speeds up the process of connecting the WIFI network module to the router.

按照上述方法，通过引入一个具备WIFI功能的无线智能终端，没有信息录入交互界面的家电，也可以对WIFI模块进行配置，方便的接入家庭无线网络，从而连接到外部互联网。According to the above method, by introducing a wireless intelligent terminal with WIFI function, household appliances without information entry interface can also configure the WIFI module to easily access the home wireless network, thereby connecting to the external Internet.

以上实施方式仅用于说明本发明，而并非对本发明的限制，有关技术领域的普通技术人员，在不脱离本发明的精神和范围的情况下，还可以做出各种变化和变型，因此所有等同的技术方案也属于本发明的范畴，本发明的专利保护范围应由权利要求限定。The above embodiments are only used to illustrate the present invention, but not to limit the present invention.
