CIM_LogicalElement 49
CIM_DiscreteSensor
The CIM_DiscreteSensor class described in Table 3-12 has a set of legal string
values that it can report. The CIM_DiscreteSensor will always have a "current
reading" that corresponds to one of the enumerated values.
CIM_NumericSensor
The CIM_NumericSensor class described in Table 3-13 returns numeric settings
and may also support threshold settings. Figure 3-2 shows the relationship among
upper and lower critical and upper and lower non-critical threshold values. The
normal range falls between upper and lower non-critical thresholds.
