Sensor Reading Example

This is an example of how to structure a command and response to determine a sensor value. In this example, a GetSensorReading command is sent from BMC (address 20h in this example), to the switch in slot 2 (geographical address is B2h) to read the temperature sensor, which is assigned to sensor number 60h.
