SDK mechanism

The following steps describe how the SDK mechanism works:
  1. Press the 
    push
     button. An alert template is picked from the Alert Template folder and its time, date, and other fields are updated. A CAP message is created from the alert template.
  2. The CAP message is placed in the 
    Encode
     folder.
  3. If an encoder is configured in IIM, that encoder processes the CAP message and activates the strobe light.
  4. The AtHoc SDK call is made and the SDK payload is posted to the BlackBerry AtHoc management system and an alert is triggered.
  5. After successful posting of the SDK payload to the BlackBerry AtHoc management system, a relay gets closed and the led light glows indicating that the SDK payload was posted.
  6. On receiving the SDK call, the BlackBerry AtHoc management system processes the request, activates the alert template, and publishes the alert.
