CIM_Sensor

The CIM_Sensor class described in Table below contains hardware devices capable of measuring the characteristics of some

physical property, for example, the temperature or voltage characteristics of a computer system

Table 20. CIM_Sensor Properties

Class Name: CIM_Sensor

Parent Class: CIM_LogicalDevice

Property Description Data Type

SensorType Indicates the type of the

sensor, for example, voltage or

temperature sensor.

Values for the SensorType

property are:

0 - Unknown

1 - Other

2 - Temperature sensors

measure the environmental

temperature.

3 - Voltage sensors measure

electrical voltage.

4 - Current sensors measure

current readings.

5 - Tachometers measure

speed/revolutions of a device.

For example, a fan device can

have an associated tachometer

that measures its speed.

6 - Batteries maintain the time

and date and save the

system’s BIOS configuration

when the system is turned off.
