setting datum
2/3/2009 Feedback from OBI
This should be a "setting specification". There is a question of whether it is information about a realizable or not.
Pro other specification are about realizables.
Cons sometimes specifies a quality which is not a realizable.
A settings datum is a datum that denotes some configuration of an instrument.
Alan grouped these in placeholder for the moment. Name by analogy to measurement datum.
