receiving a service guide display request in the controlling device;

receiving the stored weather information, the identification information of the controlling device, and the sensing information of the sensor adjacent to the target device from the server in the controlling device;

generating and displaying a service guide based on the received information in the controlling device;

generating a control command for controlling the target device according to a configuration set from the displayed service guide in the controlling device;

controlling the target device according to the generated control command; and

displaying a control result of the target device by returning the result in the controlling device,

wherein if a difference between the received weather information and the sensing information is equal to or greater than a predetermined threshold, a weather item of the service guide is updated based on the sensing information.

2. The method of claim 1, wherein the service guide is implemented in an EPG (Electronic Program Guide) form by containing at least two selected from the group consisting of a day item, the weather item, and a target device item.

3. The method of claim 2, wherein if a prescribed item is selected from the service guide, the controlling device generates a sub-service guide according to the selected item and displays the generated sub-service guide with a different layer to make the service guide is to be overlaid with the generated sub-service guide.

4. The method of claim 1, wherein if the target device is controlled based on configuration data of the service guide and the configuration data is sequentially configured, the sequentially configured data is automatically changed based on the controlling device or a movement of the controlling device.

5. The method of claim 1, wherein if a difference between the received weather information and the sensing information is equal to or greater than the predetermined threshold, the weather information and the sensing information are requested again.

6. The method of claim 5, wherein if the weather item is updated, a predetermined target device configuration data is updated based on data of the updated weather item and wherein a control command is transmitted in a manner of being regenerated based on the updated target device configuration data.

7. A method of processing data in a smart adaptive alarm system containing at least one controlling device and at least one target device, the method comprising:
