Property Description Supported
Operating
System(s)
● 6 = Offline
● 7 = Test
● 8 = Defer
● 9 = Quiesce
● 10 = Reboot
● 11 = Reset
● 12 = Not Applicable—Indicates the implementation does not support
representing ongoing transitions.
A value other than 5 or 12 identifies the state to which the element is in the
process of transitioning.
UnitModifier
The 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.
Windows, Linux
UpperThresholdCriti
cal
The Sensor's threshold values specify the ranges (min and max values) for
determining whether the Sensor is operating under Normal, NonCritical, Critical
conditions. If the CurrentReading is above UpperThresholdCritical, then the Current
State is critical.
Windows, Linux
UpperThresholdNon
Critical
The Sensor's threshold values specify the ranges (min and max values) for
determining whether the Sensor is operating under Normal, NonCritical or Critical
conditions. If the CurrentReading is between LowerThresholdNonCritical and
UpperThresholdNonCritical, then the Sensor is reporting a normal value. If the
CurrentReading is between UpperThreshold NonCritical and
UpperThresholdCritical, then the CurrentState is NonCritical.
Example for Set command: wmic /namespace:\\root\dcim\sysman path
dcim_numericsensor Where ElementName like '%Temperature Sensor:%’ set
UpperThresholdNonCritical = 70
Windows, Linux
ValueFormulation
Indicates the method used by the sensor to produce its reading.
Possible values are:
● 0 = Unknown
● 2 = Measured - Indicates the value is measured directly by the sensor.
● 3 = Derived - Indicates the value is derived from other measured values that are
not reported discretely by this sensor.
● .. = DMTF Reserved
● 32768..65535 = Vendor Reserved

SupportedThreshold
s
SupportedThresholds property is an array that contains the list of the implemented
thresholds: LowerThresholdNonCritical, UpperThresholdNonCritical,
LowerThresholdCritical, UpperThresholdCritical. When the implementation does not
support any of these threshold properties, the
CIM_NumericSensor.SupportedThresholds property shall be an empty array.
Windows, Linux
SettableThresholds
SettableThresholds property is an array that contains the list of the settable
implemented thresholds: LowerThresholdNonCritical, UpperThresholdNonCritical.
The CIM_NumericSensor.SettableThresholds array shall contain the subset of
