Sub profiles

Some profiles might have multiple profiles. This is useful when a device has different power consumption based on the state of the device. This can be used for example for different infrared modes of a light. Or lights having different effects.

Each sub profile has it's own subdirectory {manufacturer}/{modelid}/{subprofile}, which contains a model.json file. You can also define sub_profile_select in the main model.json to automatically select the sub profile based on the state of the device. When no sub_profile_select is defined, the user will be asked to select the sub profile during discovery or while setting up manually from library.

Examples:

• lifx/LIFX A19 Night Vision
• eufy/T8400
