       Version ( "2.6.0" ), Description (
       "A Sensor is a hardware device capable of measuring the "
       "characteristics of some physical property - for example, the "
       "temperature or voltage characteristics of a UnitaryComputer "
       "System.")]

      [Description (
          "The 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."),

          "For example, a \"Switch\" Sensor may output the states "
          "\"On\", or \"Off\". Another implementation of the Switch "
          "may output the states \"Open\", and \"Close\". Another "
          "example is a NumericSensor supporting thresholds. This "
          "Sensor can report the states like \"Normal\", \"Upper "
          "Fatal\", \"Lower Non-Critical\", etc. A NumericSensor that "
          "does not publish readings and thresholds, but stores this "
          "data internally, can still report its states."),
