Hi Rob,

Thank you for your thorough review.

I don't disagree; this device simply has a lot of knobs for accommodating
multiple sensing modes across different applications. Once I added support
for the ones I expected to be most commonly used, however, I didn't see a
reason to exclude the remaining minority and risk having to add something
later.

Strictly speaking, no; each property can be specified independently of any
other property and the device's registers will be updated accordingly.

That being said, a couple of properties do impose restrictions on others
within specific channels for certain applications. It wasn't clear if/how
'dependencies' could describe these conditional relationships, so I opted
to include a note in the descriptions where applicable.

Sure thing, thank you for catching these. Once I remove $ref in these cases,
is an 'allOf' still required above the remaining minimum/maximum/etc.?

On a related note, should all items under an 'allOf' be preceded by a hyphen?

Kind regards,
