Sensor Data Types

Adrian C. Edwards edited this page Jul 3, 2020 · 1 revision

While investigating other implementations of KSysGuardd and the values they return for sensors, I discovered many different values that are used for sensors

  • integer
  • float
  • table
  • listview
  • logfile

Adding Units

Units for these values are separate and allow you to be more specific. As far as I can tell these can be whatever you want and will just be displayed as-is whenever a unit would be displayed. Some examples that I have seen or used are %, MHz, and us (microseconds). The only special case that i am aware of is %, which will cause your sensor to show up in KSysGuard's sensor table with (percent) after it, rather than it's unit (i.e. (Float value) or (Integer value)
