FieldDescriptorDto

Field index. This is used for the original 1..12 index Api (not the sen-ml).

The device channel the field descriptor applies to. Typically this would be 0. A device may be composed of numerous sub-components/sensors, each of these can be allocated a channel so that the measurements can be grouped by sub-component and the fieldnames can stay unique.

Field Name. NB: This is NOT case sensitive.

Label to be used for the field.

Field unit

If the field should be shown.

If this field should be included on the chart for the device page.

Rounding for the field value. Number of decimal places.

The range that normal measurements is expected to be within.

Acceptable range.

Calibration for the field. Transforms the raw value using y=mx + c to replace the value set. Where: x is the measured value m is slope c is the offset. y is the resultant value that is stored. Stored calibrated values are NOT recalculated if the calibration is changed.

Tags for the field (e.g. "Humidity" where the sensor name has to be something other than Humidity. Allows grouping of field data by tag rather than device/name/label. NB: not fully implemented at this time

When plotting with other fields in the device fields, use the secondary Y axis.

The Y-axis to plot this field on.

HyperMedia Links. ReadOnly.

If this is the primary field for the device.

When showing just this field, use this chart type.

The date of the earliest measurement for this field.

Set the devices state (metatag) with the value from this field

Note: Not yet on membership. User defined position in ordered list. Default null. Fields are ordered by order position first, then additional fields by label if order position is not set.
