TransitioningToState
Indicates the target state to which the instance is transitioning.
Possible values are:
• 0 = Unknown
• 2 = Enabled
• 3 = Disabled
• 4 = Shut Down

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.

UpperThresholdCritic
al 
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.
