Property Description
• 32768..65535 = Vendor Reserved
ControlPattern
An LED may exhibit a range of behavior from very simple (ex. solid on)
to very complicated (ex. a series of blinks of alternating color and
duration). ControlPattern specifies the vendor or standard behavior
exhibited by the LED if it cannot be described using one of the
standard behaviors listed for the ActivationState property.
If ActivationState has the value 5 "ControlPattern", the ControlPattern
property is not NULL.
The value of ControlPattern is constructed using the following
"preferred" algorithm:
<OrgID>::<Pattern>
Where <OrgID> and < Pattern> are separated by two colons (::), and
where <OrgID> includes a copyrighted, trademarked, or otherwise
unique name that is owned by the business entity that is creating or
defining the ControlPattern or that is a registered ID assigned to the
business entity by a recognized global authority. If the definition of the
value is specified by the DMTF, the value of <OrgID> is "DMTF".
<Pattern> is chosen by the business entity and is not reused to identify
different underlying (real-world) behaviors. If the behavior specified
for the LED adheres to a standard or proprietary specification,
<Pattern> is a uniquely assigned value identifying the behavior. If the
behavior for the LED is described using a standard or proprietary
grammar, <Pattern> is prefixed with a uniquely assigned identifier for
the grammar.
CreationClassName
Indicates the name of the class or the subclass used in the creation of
an instance. When used with the other key properties of this class,
this property allows all instances of this class and its subclasses to be
uniquely identified.
DefaultActivationState
Indicates the default state of an LED. See ActivationState for a
description of the values.
Possible values are:
• 2 = Lit
• 3 = Blinking
• 4 = Off
• 5 = Control Pattern
• .. = DMTF Reserved
• 32768..65535 = Vendor Reserved
DeviceID
An address or other identifying information used to uniquely name the
LogicalDevice.
ElementName
Specifies an identifier for the LED. The value of ElementName is
constructed using the following "preferred" algorithm:
<OrgID>::<LocalID>
Where <OrgID> and <LocalID> are separated by two colons (::), and
where <OrgID> includes a copyrighted, trademarked, or otherwise
unique name that is owned by the business entity that is creating or
defining the ControlPattern or that is a registered ID assigned to the
business entity by a recognized global authority. <LocalID> is chosen
by the business entity and should not be reused to identify different
underlying (real-world) elements.
