SetAlarmState (uint32)

Method Qualifiers (SetAlarmState)

NameData TypeValue
DescriptionstringSetAlarmState is a method for defining the current state of the Alarm. Its input parameter, RequestedAlarmState, is specified using the Values list of AlarmDevice's AlarmState property. SetAlarmState returns 0 if the request is successfully implemented, 1 if the specified RequestedAlarm State is not supported, and some other value if any other error occurred. In a subclass, the set of possible return codes should be specified using a ValueMap qualifier on the method. The strings to which the ValueMap contents are 'translated' should be specified as a Values array qualifier.

Method Parameters (SetAlarmState)

NameTypeQualifiers
NameData TypeValue
RequestedAlarmStateuint16
DescriptionstringThe desired state for the alarm.
INbooleantrue
ValueMapstring0, 1, 2, 3
ValuesstringUnknown, Off, Steady, Alternating

SetAlarmIndicator (uint32)

Method Qualifiers (SetAlarmIndicator)

NameData TypeValue
DescriptionstringSetAlarmIndicator is a method for enabling or disabling the indicator of the AlarmState function, without changing the current AlarmState. It has 3 input parameters, Audio Indicator, VisualIndicator and MotionIndicator. For all of the input parameters, a value of 0 indicates no change to the AlarmState indicator, 1 indicates Disable, and 2 indicates Enable. The method returns 0 if the request is successfully implemented, 1 if the specified request is not supported, and some other value if any other error occurred. In a subclass, the set of possible return codes should be specified using a ValueMap qualifier on the method. The strings to which the ValueMap contents are 'translated' should be specified as a Values array qualifier.

Method Parameters (SetAlarmIndicator)

SetUrgency (uint32)

Method Qualifiers (SetUrgency)

NameData TypeValue
DescriptionstringSetUrgency is a method for defining the desired urgency level for the Alarm. Its input parameter, RequestedUrgency, is specified using the Values list of AlarmDevice's Urgency property. SetUrgency returns 0 if the request is successfully implemented, 1 if the specified Urgency level is not supported, and some other value if any other error occurred. In a subclass, the set of possible return codes should be specified using a ValueMap qualifier on the method. The strings to which the ValueMap contents are 'translated' should be specified as a Values array qualifier.
