What is Sensor ID and how does it differ from Installation ID?
The Sensor ID is a unique identifier assigned to the physical sensor. It is provided by the manufacturer or system during production or configuration and remains constant regardless of the installation location. It allows tracking the device’s operational history (e.g., calibrations, errors, software versions, etc.).
The Installation ID refers to the specific location or configuration where the sensor is installed. It changes every time the sensor is moved or reinstalled. This ID is associated with the particular site, time, and installation conditions (e.g., mounting height, address, outdoor environment).
