• Device Management (MQTT):

  • Device Topology Update When gateway device perceives the connection and disconnection with the sub-devices, gateway device will report the online and offline status of sub-devices. The type and sub_type value of API can be checkout from Product Type.

  • Device Property Push Device property is divided into osd property and state property. The osd property is pushed at 0.5HZ frequency. The state property is pushed when property changes. Different properties is pushed by different topic. The properties is introduced at the chapter: Aircraft Properties, Dock Properties and Remote Controller Properties.

  • Device Property Set

    • Not all the device properties can be set from the Server, we will implement that in the near future.

    • In the "Device Property" chapter, you can check the read and write status of device properties by the symbol "accessMode". If the "accessMode" is "rw" means that the properites can be set.

    • Device property set only supports setting single peoperty field. For example, property distance_limit_status has two fields state and distance-limit. When setting the property distance_limit_status, the set command should be sent twice.
