A data entry can optionally be enumerated, allowing it to be assigned a value from a specified set of values. An example of an enumerated sensor is given below:
- Chassis.Transmission.Gear:
type: sensor
datatype: uint16
enum: [ -1, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8 ]
description: The selected gear. -1 is reverse.
An enumerated signal entry has no min, max, or unit
element.
The enum element is an array of values, all of which must be specified
in the emum list. This signal can only be assigned one of the values
specified in the enum list.
The type specifier is the type of the individual elements of the enum
list.
