For example, the target mode may be that the paired connection distance between the display device and the second control device is 3m.

Specifically, when the pairing modes of the display device and the second control device are different, the corresponding unpairing methods may also be different. Therefore, before the first controller cancels the pairing with the second control device, it is also necessary to determine the The pairing mode is the target mode, so that when the pairing mode is the target mode, the control directly cancels the pairing with the second control device.

In the present disclosure, by determining the pairing mode of the display device as the target mode, the pairing with the second control device can be directly cancelled without manual operation by the user, which saves time for the user and improves the user experience.

The preset conditions can be the distance of the pairing connection, the time of the pairing connection, the scene of the pairing connection, etc., which are not specifically limited in the present disclosure. For example, the non-target mode may be that the pairing distance between the display device and the second control device is 10 cm.

Exemplarily, the prompt information displayed on the first display of the display device may be a new interface popped up on the display, and the interface displays the text “Whether to cancel the pairing with the second control device, if canceled, then click Yes below. ; if not, click No below.

Specifically, since when the pairing mode is the target mode, it is possible to directly cancel the pairing with the second control device, so when it is determined that the pairing mode of the display device is the non-target mode, it is not directly controlled to cancel the pairing with the second control device , at this time, a prompt message needs to be displayed on the first display of the display device. The prompt message can instruct the user to choose whether to cancel the pairing with the second control device. After seeing the prompt message, the user will perform corresponding operations, such as Choose to cancel the pairing with the second control device or choose not to cancel the pairing with the second control device, and after receiving the user's instruction to cancel the pairing with the second control device, control to cancel the pairing with the second control device.

In the present disclosure, when the pairing mode between the second control device and the display device is the non-target mode, the first display provides prompt information to the user through the above method, so that the unpairing process in different modes is more flexible and more applicable. Strong, while improving the user's sense of participation and experience.

In some embodiments, when prompt information is displayed on a new interface popped up on the display, the pop-up position of the interface may be the central area of the display, or may be the upper left area, lower left area, upper right area, and right area of the display. The lower area, etc., the present disclosure does not specifically limit the pop-up position of the interface.

In some embodiments, if no operation from the user is received after the interface where the prompt information is located pops up for a first preset time, the interface is hidden or the interface pops up after a second preset time.

The first preset time and the second preset time may be user-defined, may also be set by the operating system, or may be determined according to specific circumstances, which are not specifically limited in the present disclosure. In addition, the present disclosure does not specifically limit the sizes of the first preset time and the second preset time.

In the present disclosure, after the interface where the prompt information is located pops up for the first preset time, if no operation from the user is received, by hiding the interface, the user can be prevented from being disturbed when using the display device, and by waiting for the second preset time Popping up the interface after the time allows the user to receive the prompt information displayed in the interface under the circumstance that the user did not see the interface when the interface was popped up last time.

In some embodiments, if the current pairing information indicates that the display device has been successfully paired with the second control device, controlling to cancel the pairing with the second control device and pair with the first control device, specifically including:

If the current pairing information indicates that the display device has been successfully paired with the second control device, the control invokes the unpairing interface to cancel the pairing with the second control device, and invokes the pairing interface to pair with the first control device.

Specifically, if the first controller determines that the display device has been successfully paired with the second control device according to the current pairing information, in order to realize the switching of the control device, it is necessary to control and call the unpairing interface in the operating system of the display device to cancel the pairing with the second control device. device pairing, and call the pairing interface in the operating system to pair with the first control device.

Exemplarily, when the operating system in the display device is the Android system, the unpairing interface may be the removeBond interface, and the pairing interface may be the createBond interface.

In the present disclosure, the pairing with the second control device is cancelled by directly calling the unpairing interface in the operating system, and the pairing with the first control device is called by calling the pairing interface in the operating system, which is simple and efficient, and does not require manual participation.

In some embodiments, the above method further specifically includes:

The first broadcast packet of the first control device is scanned within a preset time period, and the first broadcast packet includes: first pairing information; the pairing interface is called to pair with the first control device based on the first pairing information in the first broadcast packet .

The preset time period may be a preset time period, for example, every 30s is a time period, or it may be determined according to specific circumstances, which is not specifically limited in the present disclosure. The first broadcast packet may be understood as a pairing-related information packet sent by the first control apparatus to the display device. The first pairing information may include the address (ControllerAddress) of the first control device, the flag (Flag) of the first control device, the service identification number (ServiceID) of the first control device, and the manufacturer-defined data (Manufacturer) of the first control device. Specific Data) and at least one of the appearance (Appearance) of the first control device.

In the present disclosure, when the broadcast packet of the first control device is not scanned by the above method, the second broadcast packet of the second control device is acquired, so as to perform pairing of the display device and the second control device, which can improve the avoidance of scanning for a long time. Without the first broadcast package, the user's time is wasted, and ultimately there is no paired control device for the user to use, thereby affecting the use experience.

In some embodiments, the current pairing information of the display device is acquired, and if the current pairing information indicates that the display device is not paired with another control device, the control is paired with the first control device.

Specifically, after acquiring the current pairing information of the display device, if the first controller determines that the display device is not paired with other control devices according to the current pairing information, it means that the display device is in an unpaired state, and there is no need to cancel the pairing at this time, so it can The display device is directly controlled to be paired with the first control device.

In some embodiments, if the current pairing information indicates that the display device is not paired with another control device, the control invokes the pairing interface to pair with the first control device.

Specifically, in the case where it is determined according to the current pairing information that the display device is not paired with other control devices, the pairing of the display device and the first control device can be realized by invoking a pairing interface in the operating system.
