dial-a-device-node is the device interface for dial-a-device

###
The channel object is returned when you subscribe to a channel.

For instance:
  var dispatcher = new WebSocketRails('localhost:3000/websocket');
  var awesome_channel = dispatcher.subscribe('awesome_channel');
  awesome_channel.bind('event', function(data) { console.log('channel event!'); });
  awesome_channel.trigger('awesome_event', awesome_object);

If you want to unbind an event, you can use the unbind function :
  awesome_channel.unbind('event')
