XML Example

The following example XML output shows how to specify that all motion sensors are enabled, except for speedometers. In this example:

  • The GUID: {CD09DAF1-3B2E-4C3D-B598-B5E5FF93FD46} and the GUID classification: Category map to the sensor category: motion sensors.

  • The GUID: {6BD73C1F-0BB4-4310-81B2-DFC18A52BF94} and the GUID classification: Type map to the sensor type: speedometer.
