Association groups allow the device to send unsolicited reports to the controller, or other devices in the network. Using association groups can allow you to eliminate polling, providing instant feedback of a device state change without unnecessary network traffic.
The Alarm Sound supports 2 association groups.
Changes the LED on the device When the device receives an binary switch/ basic report, this will update the LED
Association group 1 supports 1 node.
The alarm sound reports it status to the associated devices
-
In case the device gets unplugged this shall send Alarm report (code 3, Triggered).
-
When the device is connected to the power, this shall send an Alarm report (code 3, off).
-
When the device is truned of by clicking on the button, this shall send a Switch binary (off).
-
When the device gets unplugged the standard "power offline" sound is on, the device will send a Switch binary report (on).
When the Device is connected to a powersupply, the device will say it has connection to the associated devices in group 2. when the connection is succesful the led will be on for 1 second. If the device cannot make a connection the led will blink 6 times. If the led doesn't go on there is no device in this association group.
Association group 2 supports 1 node.
