Hi Mark,

Thanks for taking a look.

The enumeration depends on the number of sensors exported by SCP
firmware - which is platform dependent. I could add add something like
if you think that is helpful -

"Valid cell value is a number between 0..n-1, where n is the number
of sensors exported by SCP firmware."
