Fan model description example
The model shall be described in accordance with the model structure. The example describes a fan equipped with all functions except for managing the air flow direction.
Besides, allowed values for the hvac_air_flow_power
function (fan speed) of the model are changed: the quiet
mode is not supported by the model and therefore deleted.
