Appendix C: BMC Sensor Tables
This appendix lists the sensor identification numbers and information about the sensor type,
name, supported thresholds, assertion and de-assertion information, and a brief description
of the sensor purpose. See the Intelligent Platform Management Interface Specification,
Version 2.0 for sensor and event/reading-type table information.
Sensor Type Codes
Sensor table given below lists the sensor identification numbers and information regarding
the sensor type, name, supported thresholds, assertion and de-assertion information, and a
brief description of the sensor purpose. Refer to the Intelligent Platform Management
Interface Specification, Version 2.0 for sensor and event/reading-type table information.
 Sensor Type
The sensor type references the values in the Sensor Type Codes table in the Intelligent
Platform Management Interface Specification Second Generation, Version 2.0. It
provides a context to interpret the sensor.
 Event/Reading Type
The event/reading type references values from the Event/Reading Type Code Ranges
and the Generic Event/Reading Type Code tables in the Intelligent Platform
Management Interface Specification Second Generation, Version 2.0. Digital sensors are
specific type of discrete sensors that only have two states.
 Event Thresholds/Triggers
The following event thresholds are supported for threshold type sensors:
- [u,l][nr,c,nc] upper non-recoverable, upper critical, upper non-critical, lower
non-recoverable, lower critical, lower non-critical uc, lc upper critical, lower critical
Event triggers are supported event-generating offsets for discrete type sensors. The
offsets can be found in the Generic Event/Reading Type Code or Sensor Type Code
tables in the Intelligent Platform Management Interface Specification Second
Generation, Version 2.0, depending on whether the sensor event/reading type is
generic or a sensor-specific response.
 Assertion/Deassertion
Assertion and de-assertion indicators reveal the type of events this sensor generates:
- As: Assertion
- De: De-assertion
 Readable Value/Offsets
Readable value indicates the type of value returned for threshold and other non-
discrete type sensors.
Readable offsets indicate the offsets for discrete sensors that are readable by means of
the Get Sensor Reading command. Unless otherwise indicated, event triggers are
