NUT command and variable naming scheme
======================================
endif::external_title[]
This is a dump of the standard variables and command names used in NUT.
Don't use a name with any of the dstate functions unless it exists here.
If you need a new variable or command name, contact the Development Team
first.
Put another way: if you make up a name that's not in this list and it
gets into the tree, and then we come up with a better name later, clients
that use the undocumented variable will break when it is changed.
NOTE: "opaque" means programs should not attempt to parse the value for
that variable as it may vary greatly from one UPS to the next. These
strings are best handled directly by the user.
Variables

NOTE: some of these data will be redundant with ups.* information
during a transition period. The ups.* data will then be removed.

Three-phase additions
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The additions for three-phase measurements would produce a very long table
due to all the combinations that are possible, so these additions are
broken down to their base components.
Phase Count Determination
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
input.phases (3 for three-phase, absent or 1 for 1phase)
output.phases (as for input.phases)
DOMAINs
^^^^^^^
Any input or output is considered a valid DOMAIN.
input (should really be called input.mains, but keep this for compat)
input.bypass
input.servicebypass
output (should really be called output.load, but keep this for compat)
output.bypass
output.inverter
output.servicebypass
Specification (SPEC)
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Voltage, current, frequency, etc are considered to be a specification of
the measurement.
With this notation, the old 1phase naming scheme becomes DOMAIN.SPEC
Example: `input.current`
CONTEXT
^^^^^^^
When in three-phase mode, we need some way to specify the target for most
measurements in more detail. We call this the CONTEXT.
With this notation, the naming scheme becomes DOMAIN.CONTEXT.SPEC when
in three-phase mode.
Example: `input.L1.current`
Valid CONTEXTs
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
L1-L2 \
L2-L3 \
L3-L1 for voltage measurements
L1-N /
L2-N /
L3-N /
L1 \
L2 for current and power measurements
L3 /
N - for current measurement
Valid SPECs
^^^^^^^^^^^

NOTE:
battery.charger.status replaces the historic flags CHRG and DISCHRG that were
exposed through ups.status. battery.charger.status can have one of the
following value:
- charging: battery is charging,
- discharging: battery is discharging,
- floating: battery has completed its charge cycle, and waiting to go to resting
mode,
- resting: the battery is fully charged, and not charging nor discharging.
ambient: Conditions from external probe equipment
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
NOTE: multiple sensors can be exposed using the indexed notation.
'ambient.*', without index or using '0', relates to the embedded sensor.
For example: 'ambient.temperature' represent the embedded sensor temperature.
Other sensors (external, communication card, ...) can use indexes
from '1' to 'n'. For example: 'ambient.1.temperature' for the first external
sensor temperature.

NUT outlets management and PDU notes chapter of the user manual.
A special case is "outlet.0" which is equivalent to "outlet" (without
index), and represent the whole set of outlets of the device. The most

outlet.group: groups of smart outlets
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
This is a refinement of the outlet collection, providing grouped
management for a set of outlets. The same principles and data than the
outlet collection apply to outlet.group, especially for the indexing 'n'
and "outlet.group.count".
Most of the data published for outlets also apply to outlet.group,
including: id, name (similar as outlet "desc"), status, current and
voltage (including status, alarm and thresholds).
Some specific data to outlet groups exists:
