Correct in all regards, except for the Management
Instrument Instrument ID -


The SaHpiRdrT.RecordId is the ID for the RDR record. 
There are RDR 
Records for each of the 5 management instrument types -
but each 
Management instrument has its own type-specific ID -
these can be found
In the RDRs at - 

Sensors - SaHpiRdrT.RdrTypeUnion.SensorRec.Num
Controls - SaHpiRdrT.RdrTypeUnion.CtrlRec.Num
IDR - SaHpiRdrT.RdrTypeUnion.InventoryRec.IdrId
Watchdog Timer -
SaHpiRdrT.RdrTypeUnion.WatchdogRec.WatchdogNum
Annunciator -
SaHpiRdrT.RdrTypeUnion.AnnunciatorRec.AnnunciatorNum

These are the IDs that need to be used on most HPI
commands that access the
management instruments.  And, with this number you can
also read the RDR,
using the saHpiRdrGetByInstrumentId() call.
