What is tempSensorPurpose?

Read-only enumeration describing what a temperature sensor monitors: cpu(3), ambient(4), housing(5), io-board(7) or power-backplane(8) (values disable(2) and not-available(6) are no longer used). Lets a dashboard label a temperature reading meaningfully, e.g. distinguishing a hot CPU sensor from a cool ambient one.

Examples
