name[required] Name of your accessory.ip[required] ip address of your Fan.token[required] The device token of your Fan.deviceId[optional] New fan devices which use the miot protocol require the device id to be specified. The deviceId will be automatically retrieved by the plugin but if there is trouble you can manually specify it. Default: "" (not specified)model[optional] The fan model.
