Accuracysint32
DeprecatedstringNo value
DescriptionstringIndicates the accuracy of the Sensor for the measured property. Its value is recorded as plus/minus hundredths of a percent. Accuracy, along with Resolution, is used to calculate the actual value of the measured physical property. Accuracy may vary depending on whether the Device is linear over its dynamic range.

BaseUnitsuint162
DeprecatedstringNo value
DescriptionstringThe base unit of the values returned by this Sensor. All the values returned by this Sensor are represented in the units obtained by (BaseUnits * 10 raised to the power of the UnitModifier). For example, if BaseUnits is Volts and the UnitModifier is -6, then the units of the values returned are MicroVolts. However, if the RateUnits property is set to a value other than "None", then the units are further qualified as rate units. In the above example, if RateUnits is set to "Per Second", then the values returned by the Sensor are in MicroVolts/Second. The units apply to all numeric properties of the Sensor, unless explicitly overridden by the Units qualifier.

RateUnitsuint160
DeprecatedstringNo value
DescriptionstringSpecifies if the units returned by this Sensor are rate units. All the values returned by this Sensor are represented in the units obtained by (BaseUnits * 10 raised to the power of the UnitModifier). This is true unless this property (RateUnits) has a value different than "None". For example, if BaseUnits is Volts and the UnitModifier is -6, then the units of the values returned are MicroVolts. But, if the RateUnits property is set to a value other than "None", then the units are further qualified as rate units. In the above example, if RateUnits is set to "Per Second", then the values returned by the Sensor are in MicroVolts/Second. The units apply to all numeric properties of the Sensor, unless explicitly overridden by the Units qualifier. Any implementation of CurrentReading should be qualified with either a Counter or a Gauge qualifier, depending on the characteristics of the sensor being modeled.

SensorTypeuint162
DeprecatedstringNo value
DescriptionstringThe Type of the Sensor, e.g. Voltage or Temperature Sensor. If the type is set to "Other", then the OtherSensorType Description can be used to further identify the type, or if the Sensor has numeric readings, then the type of the Sensor can be implicitly determined by the Units. A description of the different Sensor types is as follows: A Temperature Sensor measures the environmental temperature. Voltage and Current Sensors measure electrical voltage and current readings. A Tachometer measures speed/revolutions of a Device. For example, a Fan Device can have an associated Tachometer which measures its speed. A Counter is a general purpose Sensor that measures some numerical property of a Device. A Counter value can be cleared, but it never decreases. A Switch Sensor has states like Open/Close, On/Off, or Up/Down. A Lock has states of Locked/Unlocked. Humidity, Smoke Detection and Air Flow Sensors measure the equivalent environmental characteristics. A Presence Sensor detects the presence of a PhysicalElement. A Power Consumption Sensor measures the instantaneous power consumed by a managed element. A Power Production Sensor measures the instantaneous power produced by a managed element such as a power supply or a voltage regulator. A pressure sensor is used to report pressure. Intrusion sensor reports an intrusion of an enclosure regardless whether it was authorized or not.

DeprecatedstringNo value
DescriptionstringThis property is being deprecated in lieu of using the Resolution and Accuracy properties. Indicates the tolerance of the Sensor for the measured property. Tolerance, along with Resolution and Accuracy, is used to calculate the actual value of the measured physical property. Tolerance may vary depending on whether the Device is linear over its dynamic range.

DescriptionstringThe unit multiplier for the values returned by this Sensor. All the values returned by this Sensor are represented in the units obtained by (BaseUnits * 10 raised to the power of the UnitModifier). For example, if BaseUnits is Volts and the Unit Modifier is -6, then the units of the values returned are MicroVolts. However, if the RateUnits property is set to a value other than "None", then the units are further qualified as rate units. In the above example, if RateUnits is set to "Per Second", then the values returned by the Sensor are in MicroVolts/Second. The units apply to all numeric properties of the Sensor, unless explicitly overridden by the Units qualifier.
