Sun Microsystems CP3260 manual Table B-3Send Sensor State Command Data Bytes, Ipmc

TABLE B-3Send Sensor State Command Data Bytes (Continued)

Type	Byte	Data Field
	Byte4	Sensor type byte
		Indicates event class or type of sensor that generates
		the event message. (Refer to IPMI specification for
		sensor type codes.)
	Byte5	Sensor # (optional); Write to 0
		Unique number representing the sensor within the
		management controller that generates the event
		message. The BIOS, OBP, ILOM, and OS does not
		have to know and send the sensor number for the
		sensors that are maintained and reported by the
		IPMC.
		Reserved for future use.
	Byte6	EventDir EventType
		• 1 bit for EventDir, which indicates the event
		transition direction. A value of 0 means assertion
		event; a value of 1 means deassertion event.
		• 7 bits for EventType, which indicates the type of
		threshold crossing or state transition (trigger) that
		produces the event. Encode using the
		Event/Reading Type code. (Refer to IPMI
		specification for type codes.)
	Byte7	Sensor offset
		Tells the sensor generic or sensor specific offset as
		defined in the IPMI specification. IPMC uses this data
		to define the state of the sensors. (Refer to the IPMI
		specification.)
	Byte8	Event Data 1
		Represents the remainder of the event message data
		according to the class of the event type for the sensor
		(threshold, discrete, or OEM). (Refer to the IPMI
		specification.)
	Byte9	Event Data 2
		Represents the remainder of the event message data
		according to the class of the event type for the sensor
		(threshold, discrete, or OEM). (Refer to the IPMI
		specification.)
	Byte10	Event Data 3
		Represents the remainder of the event message data
		according to the class of the event type for the sensor
		(threshold, discrete, or OEM). (Refer to the IPMI
		specification.)
	Byte11	Reserved for future use. (Write zero)
