What is cienaCesModuleSensorDescription?

This object holds a free-text description identifying which specific physical sensor a given row in the sensor table corresponds to. It matters because a single module can carry several distinct temperature sensors (for example, at the air intake versus the exhaust), and this field is what lets an admin tell which physical location a given temperature reading actually represents. For example, a value of 'Intake Temp Sensor' distinguishes that row from a separate 'Exhaust Temp Sensor' row on the same module.

Examples
