<attributes>

The <attributes> element is a container element for the device attributes that are present on the device. It also contains the datapoints that are used for input and output. The <attributes> element is required and must be defined within the <device> container element. Only one <attributes> element can be defined per class file.

At least one <attribute> element, with one or more <nv> elements within the <nvs> element, must be defined for an <attributes> element.
