Local temperature 23is given within a range of -127 to +127.875 degrees. Remote temperatures are 24given within a range of -127 to +255 degrees. Resolution depends on 25temperature input and range. 26 27Each sensor has its own critical limit. Additionally, there is a relative 28hysteresis value common to both critical limits. To make life easier to 29user-space applications, two absolute values are exported, one for each 30channel, but these values are of course linked. Only the local hysteresis 31can be set from user-space, and the same delta applies to the remote 32hysteresis. 33 34The lm95245 driver can change its update interval to a fixed set of values. 35It will round up to the next selectable interval. See the datasheet for exact 36values. Reading sensor values more often will do no harm, but will return 37'old' values. 38
