Function and Intended Use
Actions (for devices)
In the case of household appliances, such as the "Smarter iKettle 2.0", operations to be
carried out are called "Actions". Actions are device-dependent and are called up on the
device. You can call up these actions directly later or you can set and call up an action for
a linked action from preset and device by means of a "user-defined action". Your IP
devices can execute actions that are subdivided into "standard actions" and "custom
actions". Standard actions are functions performed from the device, which are available to
every user. Custom actions are individually adjustable parameters of the user for the
device.
Example based on the device "Smarter iKettle 2.0"
Standard action:
Custom action:
User Defined Actions
The dSS-IP allows you to create extensive "user defined actions", which the previously
configured presets and actions call up (spanning all rooms and devices) on the IP devices
in the corresponding rooms.
Example of a user defined action:
Name of the user defined action: Breakfast
consisting of:
Preset "Cook"
Preset "Dining"
Action "Black tea"
Preset "SWR3"
You can find out how to create a user defined action here:
Feedbacks
By the intelligent linking of the IP devices in your home the dSS-IP is also able to give
feedbacks to presets or actions that are called up. Thus, for example, Sonos can give a
voice feedback and the Philips Hue lights blink in the kitchen when the water for your tea
is ready. Or you receive a push message when a specific action has been performed in the
home.
You can find out how to set up a feedback here:
