LoadedOnDeviceboolean
DescriptionstringBoolean that indicates that the software is 'burned into' or otherwise located on the hardware of the LogicalDevice.None TRANSLATABLE= true
Purposeuint16
DescriptionstringAn enumerated integer that indicates the role that this software plays in regards to its associated Device. For example, this software could be instrumentation (value=5) or firmware (value=6).None TRANSLATABLE= true

UpgradeableOnDeviceboolean
DescriptionstringBoolean that indicates whether the software is upgradeable, when it is LoadedOnDevice. Software that is loaded as part of the OperatingSystem is typically changeable and upgradeable. However, when DeviceSoftware is burned into EEPROM or a chip that realizes the LogicalDevice, then it might not be upgradeable. This property indicates the ability to update and upgrade DeviceSoftware.None TRANSLATABLE= true
