SENSOR CLASS
LIST - VERSION 1.0
Preface
The sensor class describes how the sensor should
be categorized in relation to others. Sensors of an identical
class will always return input in an identical format (see Output
Descriptors for Developers).
A sensor class is made up of 3 attributes, the sensors
primary purpose, the property measured by the sensor and the means
of detecting that property (referred to as the PPM combination).
SUPPORTED SENSOR CLASSES
The following tables describe the sensor classes
supported by the current version of Liquid (1.0). The definition
code column specifies the value the respective definition
(PURPOSE_OF_SENSOR,
PROPERTY_MEASURED and MEANS_OF_SENSING)
should be set to in the Liquid Device Driver source file Device
Driver.cpp (see How
to build a Liquid Device Driver). Codes are stored
in the source file Sensor Codes.h.
If your sensor does not fall into any of the supported
classes consult Adding
Sensor Classes.
