Notice 3: NIF – Node Information

Association

The device supports 5 association groups, and each group supports max 5 associated nodes.

Group 1, Lifeline – All nodes associated in group 1(lifeline group) will receive the messages that send by the device through the lifeline.
In group 2, all nodes associated in group 2 will be controlled by the device through the BASIC_SET command. When the ambient temperature value is less than the setting value in “Configuration: No.6”, the device will trigger a low-temperature Alarm and send a BASIC_SET = 0xFF to the nodes that are associated in group 2. And BASIC_SET = 0x00 will be sent when the temperature value is large than the setting value in “Configuration: No.6”.
Group 3, all nodes associated in group 3 will be controlled by the device through the BASIC_SET command. When the ambient temperature value is less than the setting value in “Configuration: No.7”, the device will trigger a low-temperature Alarm and send a BASIC_SET = 0xFF to the nodes associated in the group 3. And BASIC_SET = 0x00 will be sent when the temperature value is large than the setting value in “Configuration: No.7”.
Group 4, all nodes which associated in group 4 will be controlled by the device through the BASIC_SET command. When the ambient humidity value is less than the setting value in “Configuration: No.8”, the device will trigger a low humidity Alarm and send a BASIC_SET = 0xFF to the nodes that are associated in group 4. And BASIC_SET = 0x00 will be sent when the humidity value is large than the setting value in “Configuration: No.8”.
Group 5, all nodes which associated in group 5 will be controlled by device through the BASIC_SET command. When the ambient humidity value is less than the setting value in “Configuration: No.9”, the device will trigger a low humidity alarm and send a BASIC_SET = 0xFF to the nodes that are associated in group 5. And BASIC_SET = 0x00 will be sent when the humidity value is large than the setting value in “Configuration: No.9”.
