====== API v1.6 Release Notes ======

This version of the API shipped with Indigo 6 beta 6 - check the [[:API Version Chart]] to see what version of the API is available in which Indigo versions.

  * Added optional //''uiValue''// argument to device //''updateStateOnServer()''// method. This string is used only for UI display of the value (not for trigger or conditional logic), and is useful for adding units, percent signs, etc.
  * Added //''sensorValue''// attribute to device sensor instances (sensor devices can now support //''onState''// and/or //''sensorValue''// states). 
  * Added //''allowOnStateChange''// and //''allowSensorValueChange''// attributes to device sensor instances to indicate if UI controls should be shown to change the state (ex: Turn On and Turn Off buttons).

^  Examples  ^
|<code>dev.updateStateOnServer("sensorValue", 72.3, uiValue=u"72.3 °F")
indigo.server.log("temp is " + str(dev.sensorValue))</code>|
