enum control value

field	data type	desc
value	Object	The type of value depends on the dataType returned by Get You Device.

In capabilities, if type is 'devices.capabilities.online', it indicates whether the device is wifi online. If it is false, the status data queried is historical data and has no reference significance. If state is true, it means the device is online, and the returned value is the value of the current device status. These values correspond to the list returned by Get You Device. If the value value is empty, it means that the instance does not support query.

In capabilities, if the type is 'devices.capabilities.event', this is a property of real-time monitoring. It will only be reported when the event occurs on the device and cannot be obtained through query. If you want to obtain the status in real time, please refer to 'Subscribe Device Event' interface
