  - WIREADMIN_PID
```
static final String WIREADMIN_PID
```
    Wire property key (named wireadmin.pid) specifying the persistent identity (PID) of this Wire object.
    Each Wire object has a PID to allow unique and persistent identification of a specific Wire object. The PID must be generated by the WireAdmin service when the Wire object is created.
    This wire property is automatically set by the Wire Admin service. The value of the property must be of type String.

```
static final String WIREADMIN_CONSUMER_PID

    Constant Field Values
  - WIREADMIN_FILTER
```
static final String WIREADMIN_FILTER
```
    Wire property key (named wireadmin.filter) specifying a filter used to control the delivery rate of data between the Producer and the Consumer service.
    This property should contain a filter as described in the Filter class. The filter can be used to specify when an updated value from the Producer service should be delivered to the Consumer service. In many cases the Consumer service does not need to receive the data with the same rate that the Producer service can generate data. This property can be used to control the delivery rate.
    The filter can use a number of predefined attributes that can be used to control the delivery of new data values. If the filter produces a match upon the wire filter attributes, the Consumer service should be notified of the updated data value.
    If the Producer service was registered with the WIREADMIN_PRODUCER_FILTERS service property indicating that the Producer service will perform the data filtering then the Wire object will not perform data filtering. Otherwise, the Wire object must perform basic filtering. Basic filtering includes supporting the following standard wire filter attributes:
    - WIREVALUE_CURRENT - Current value
    - WIREVALUE_PREVIOUS - Previous value
    - WIREVALUE_DELTA_ABSOLUTE - Absolute delta
    - WIREVALUE_DELTA_RELATIVE - Relative delta
    - WIREVALUE_ELAPSED - Elapsed time
    See Also:
    Filter, Constant Field Values
  - WIREVALUE_CURRENT
```
static final String WIREVALUE_CURRENT
```
    Wire object's filter attribute (named wirevalue.current) representing the current value.
    
    See Also:
    Constant Field Values
  - WIREVALUE_PREVIOUS
```
static final String WIREVALUE_PREVIOUS
```
    Wire object's filter attribute (named wirevalue.previous) representing the previous value.
    
    See Also:
    Constant Field Values
  - WIREVALUE_DELTA_ABSOLUTE
```
static final String WIREVALUE_DELTA_ABSOLUTE
```
    Wire object's filter attribute (named wirevalue.delta.absolute) representing the absolute delta. The absolute (always positive) difference between the last update and the current value (only when numeric). This attribute must not be used when the values are not numeric.
    
    See Also:
    Constant Field Values
  - WIREVALUE_DELTA_RELATIVE
```
static final String WIREVALUE_DELTA_RELATIVE
```
    Wire object's filter attribute (named wirevalue.delta.relative) representing the relative delta. The relative difference is |previous-current |/| current| (only when numeric). This attribute must not be used when the values are not numeric.
    
    See Also:
    Constant Field Values
  - WIREVALUE_ELAPSED
```
static final String WIREVALUE_ELAPSED
```
    Wire object's filter attribute (named wirevalue.elapsed) representing the elapsed time, in ms, between this filter evaluation and the last update of the Consumer service.
    
    See Also:
    Constant Field Values
  - WIREADMIN_PRODUCER_FILTERS
```
static final String WIREADMIN_PRODUCER_FILTERS
```
    Service Registration property (named wireadmin.producer.filters). A Producer service registered with this property indicates to the Wire Admin service that the Producer service implements at least the filtering as described for the WIREADMIN_FILTER property. If the Producer service is not registered with this property, the Wire object must perform the basic filtering as described in WIREADMIN_FILTER.
    The type of the property value is not relevant. Only its presence is relevant.

    Constant Field Values
  - WIREADMIN_CONSUMER_FLAVORS
```
static final String WIREADMIN_CONSUMER_FLAVORS
```
    Service Registration property (named wireadmin.consumer.flavors) specifying the list of data types understood by this Consumer service.
    The Consumer service object must be registered with this service property. The list must be in the order of preference with the first type being the most preferred. The value of the property must be of type Class[].
    
    See Also:
    Constant Field Values
  - WIREADMIN_PRODUCER_FLAVORS
```
static final String WIREADMIN_PRODUCER_FLAVORS
```
    Service Registration property (named wireadmin.producer.flavors) specifying the list of data types available from this Producer service.
    The Producer service object should be registered with this service property.
    The value of the property must be of type Class[].

    Constant Field Values
  - WIREADMIN_EVENTS
```
static final String WIREADMIN_EVENTS
```
    Service Registration property (named wireadmin.events) specifying the WireAdminEvent type of interest to a Wire Admin Listener service. The value of the property is a bitwise OR of all the WireAdminEvent types the Wire Admin Listener service wishes to receive and must be of type Integer.
