The invention discloses a cooperative control method based on a finite state automaton. The cooperative control method based on the finite state automaton comprises the following steps that a cooperative control server-side waits for a transmitting instruction after being initialized; a user performs input operation in terminal application; the cooperative control server-side receives the transmitting instruction and then sends a cooperative control instruction to all of target terminals; a synchronous control server-side receives a synchronous request and then sends synchronous confirmation information to all of synchronous terminals; the synchronous control server-side sends action information to the terminal application after all of terminal applications returns synchronous confirmation information; the terminal applications carry out synchronous actions; cooperative control based on the finite state automaton is achieved. The cooperative control method ensures all of states of the system to be under the effective control by defining, monitoring and transferring states of all of devices in cooperative control and reduces the system risk.
