Abstract

Provided are a method and apparatus for controlling an air-conditioning device, a device, a medium, and a program product. The method includes: activating a linkage mode of the air-conditioning device; in the linkage mode, determining, in response to a control instruction for a first adjustment dimension of a plurality of adjustment dimensions of the air-conditioning device and in response to controlling the first adjustment dimension, a target value of the first adjustment dimension; and controlling a second adjustment dimension based on the target value of the first adjustment dimension and an adjustment coefficient for an adjustment from the first adjustment dimension to the second adjustment dimension.

Claims

exact text as granted — not AI-modified
What is claimed is: 
     
         1 . A method for controlling an air-conditioning device, comprising:
 activating a linkage mode of the air-conditioning device; and   in the linkage mode, determining, in response to a control instruction for a first adjustment dimension of a plurality of adjustment dimensions of the air-conditioning device and in response to controlling the first adjustment dimension, a target value of the first adjustment dimension, and controlling a second adjustment dimension based on the target value of the first adjustment dimension and an adjustment coefficient for an adjustment from the first adjustment dimension to the second adjustment dimension,   wherein the second adjustment dimension is an enabled adjustment dimension of the plurality of adjustment dimensions other than the first adjustment dimension.   
     
     
         2 . The method according to  claim 1 , wherein the controlling the second adjustment dimension based on the target value of the first adjustment dimension and the adjustment coefficient for the adjustment from the first adjustment dimension to the second adjustment dimension comprises:
 determining a first to-be-adjusted amount of the second adjustment dimension based on the target value of the first adjustment dimension;   determining a second to-be-adjusted amount of the second adjustment dimension based on the first to-be-adjusted amount of the second adjustment dimension and the adjustment coefficient; and   adjusting the second adjustment dimension based on the second to-be-adjusted amount of the second adjustment dimension.   
     
     
         3 . The method according to  claim 2 , wherein the determining, in response to controlling the first adjustment dimension, the target value of the first adjustment dimension comprises:
 determining, in response to enabling the first adjustment dimension, a currently enabled value of the first adjustment dimension as the target value of the first adjustment dimension; or   determining, in response to adjusting the first adjustment dimension, an adjusted value of the first adjustment dimension as the target value of the first adjustment dimension.   
     
     
         4 . The method according to  claim 3 , wherein the determining the first to-be-adjusted amount of the second adjustment dimension based on the target value of the first adjustment dimension comprises:
 determining a first mapping relationship between target values of the first adjustment dimension and adjusted values corresponding to the second adjustment dimension;   determining an adjusted value corresponding to the second adjustment dimension based on the target value of the first adjustment dimension and the first mapping relationship; and   determining the first to-be-adjusted amount of the second adjustment dimension based on a current value of the second adjustment dimension and the adjusted value corresponding to the second adjustment dimension.   
     
     
         5 . The method according to  claim 2 , wherein the determining, in response to controlling the first adjustment dimension, the target value of the first adjustment dimension comprises:
 determining, in response to adjusting the first adjustment dimension, an adjustment amount of the first adjustment dimension as the target value of the first adjustment dimension.   
     
     
         6 . The method according to  claim 5 , wherein the determining the first to-be-adjusted amount of the second adjustment dimension based on the target value of the first adjustment dimension comprises:
 determining a second mapping relationship between adjustment amounts of the first adjustment dimension and first to-be-adjusted amounts of the second adjustment dimension; and   determining the first to-be-adjusted amount of the second adjustment dimension based on the adjustment amount of the first adjustment dimension and the second mapping relationship.   
     
     
         7 . The method according to  claim 2 , wherein the determining the second to-be-adjusted amount of the second adjustment dimension based on the first to-be-adjusted amount of the second adjustment dimension and the adjustment coefficient comprises:
 determining the second to-be-adjusted amount of the second adjustment dimension as zero when the adjustment coefficient is zero; and   calculating, when the adjustment coefficient is greater than zero, a product of the first to-be-adjusted amount of the second adjustment dimension and the adjustment coefficient as the second to-be-adjusted amount of the second adjustment dimension.   
     
     
         8 . The method according to  claim 1 , wherein the activating the linkage mode of the air-conditioning device comprises:
 activating the linkage mode of the air-conditioning device in response to a power on instruction or a linkage instruction.   
     
     
         9 . The method according to  claim 8 , further comprising:
 enabling at least one of the plurality of adjustment dimensions in response to the power on instruction or the linkage instruction.   
     
     
         10 . The method according to  claim 9 , wherein the at least one of the plurality of adjustment dimensions is any one of:
 an adjustment dimension that needs to be enabled by a system by default;   an adjustment dimension historically enabled in the linkage mode; and   an adjustment dimension that needs to be enabled based on a current environment.   
     
     
         11 . The method according to  claim 9 , wherein when the air-conditioning device switches from a normal mode to the linkage mode in response to the linkage instruction, the at least one of the plurality of adjustment dimensions is any one of:
 an adjustment dimension that needs to be enabled by a system by default;   an adjustment dimension historically enabled in the linkage mode;   an adjustment dimension enabled in the normal mode; and   an adjustment dimension that needs to be enabled based on a current environment,   wherein the normal mode is a mode in which the plurality of adjustment dimensions are independently controlled.   
     
     
         12 . The method according to  claim 1 , wherein the activating the linkage mode of the air-conditioning device comprises:
 activating the linkage mode of the air-conditioning device in response to a selection instruction and a linkage instruction for at least one of the plurality of adjustment dimensions.   
     
     
         13 . The method according to  claim 12 , further comprising:
 enabling the at least one of the plurality of adjustment dimensions in response to the selection instruction and the linkage instruction for the at least one of the plurality of adjustment dimensions.   
     
     
         14 . An apparatus for controlling an air-conditioning device, comprising:
 an activation module configured to activate a linkage mode of the air-conditioning device; and   a control module configured to determine, in the linkage mode and in response to a control instruction for a first adjustment dimension of a plurality of adjustment dimensions of the air-conditioning device and in response to controlling the first adjustment dimension, a target value of the first adjustment dimension, and control a second adjustment dimension based on the target value of the first adjustment dimension and an adjustment coefficient for an adjustment from the first adjustment dimension to the second adjustment dimension,   wherein the second adjustment dimension is an enabled adjustment dimension of the plurality of adjustment dimensions other than the first adjustment dimension.   
     
     
         15 . A controller comprising:
 at least one processor comprising hardware; and   a memory configured to store a computer program, wherein the at least one processor is configured to invoke and execute the computer program stored in the memory to implement the method according to  claim 1 .   
     
     
         16 . A non-transitory computer-readable storage medium having a computer program stored thereon, wherein the computer program causes a computer to implement the method according to  claim 1 .
