WMIQuerySensor

The WMI query sensor is an advanced sensor that executes a user defined WMI query and exposes the result.

To use the WMI query sensor, you should create a WMI query and paste it in the box. For example, If you wanted to find the current CPU frequency you can use this command:

SELECT CurrentClockSpeed FROM Win32_Processor

which results in 4008 for my PC. Because this query retuens a single value (CPU frequency in MHz), it can be used with the current WMI query sensor implementation.

The command sql SELECT * FROM Win32_Processor cannot be used because it returns |64|9|To Be Filled By O.E.M.|3| ... |GAME-PC-2016|8|1|False|False|, and the current WMI query implementation only supports commands that return a single value.

You can use WMI Explorer to construct a query, or alternatively look at the user submited sensors below:
