31 <strong>HID</strong> <strong>Sensor</strong> <strong>Usage</strong>s<br />

can be overridden using explicit Unit and/or Unit Exponent.<br />

Inductance SV – Measures electrical inductance. Default unit of measure is<br />

Henrys; can be overridden using explicit Unit and/or Unit<br />

Exponent.<br />

Resistance SV – Measures electrical resistance. Default unit of measure is<br />

Ohms; can be overridden using explicit Unit and/or Unit<br />

Exponent.<br />

Voltage SV – Measures electrical voltage. Default unit of measure is<br />

Volts; can be overridden using explicit Unit and/or Unit Exponent.<br />

Frequency SV – Measures electrical frequency. Default unit of measure is<br />

Hertz; can be overridden using explicit Unit and/or Unit Exponent.<br />

Period SV – Measures electrical period. Default unit of measure is<br />

milliseconds; can be overridden using explicit Unit and/or Unit<br />

Exponent.<br />

Percent of Range SV – Measures the percent of range provided by a value, such as<br />

the position of a potentiometer with respect to the overall physical<br />

range of that potentiometer. Can be scaled with a Unit Exponent.<br />

1.8 Environmental <strong>Sensor</strong> Field <strong>Usage</strong>s<br />

These fields are commonly supported by environmental sensors.<br />

Atmospheric Pressure SV – Measures atmospheric pressure. Default unit of measure is<br />

bars; can be overridden using explicit Unit and/or Unit Exponent.<br />

Reference Pressure DV – Specifies reference atmospheric pressure at sea level,<br />

nominally “1976 US Standard Atmosphere” air pressure at Sea<br />

Level Pressure. Default unit of measure is bars; can be overridden<br />

using explicit Unit and/or Unit Exponent.<br />

Relative Humidity Percent SV – Measures relative humidity as a percentage.<br />

Temperature SV – Measures temperature. Default unit of measure is degrees<br />

Celsius; can be overridden using explicit Unit and/or Unit<br />

Exponent.<br />

Wind Direction SV – Measures wind direction relative to magnetic north. Default<br />

unit of measure is degrees; can be overridden using explicit Unit<br />

and/or Unit Exponent.<br />

Wind Speed SV – Measures wind speed. Default unit of measure is<br />

meters/second; can be overridden using explicit Unit and/or Unit<br />

Exponent.<br />

1.9 Light <strong>Sensor</strong> Field <strong>Usage</strong>s<br />

These fields are commonly supported by light sensors.<br />

Illuminance SV – Measures illuminance (light level, i.e., luminance per square<br />

area). Default unit of measure is Lux; can be overridden using<br />

explicit Unit and/or Unit Exponent.
