Abstract

A controller controls a sequence of actions at a device. The controller includes computer instructions that receive a plurality of user inputs and command information associated with an action for the device to perform. The first user input defines a target in a bed layout of the device. The second user input assigns the target to a first zone of the bed layout. The third user input assigns the target to a second zone of the bed layout. The fourth user input indicates an operational mode for controlling performance of the action. The operational mode includes a non-validation mode defining a state of operation wherein a device limitation is not imposed to restrict the action. The command information includes a command name identifying the action and a device identifier. A unique command method corresponding to the device identifier and to the command name is identified and executed to control operation of the device as it performs the action at the defined target without imposing the device limitation if the fourth user input indicates the non-validation mode.
