====/api/asset/set====

===Usage===

This function is used to set the value of an asset property.

Many properties have more than one 'node' (sub-value), such as measurements, which have 'measurement', 'min', 'max', 'units' and 'places'. You can choose to set a specific value by setting the //node// parameter.

If you don't include a //node// parameter, you'll set the //default// node. This is the number in a measurement, state in a status, value in an enum etc and will usually be the most common way to call this function.

If you pass a **blank** node parameter, you'll be able to write the //combined// value. This is a bar (|) delimited combination of the various node values. For example, to set a measurement property all at once, you could write **12|0|100| Deg C|1**, which means...

1) The current amount is 12.0 \\
2) The minimum is 0 \\
3) The maximum is 100 \\
4) The units are Deg C (with a space between the number and the units) \\
5) It will normally show 1 decimal point \\
