Public methodDispose This method is a "clean-up" method that is primarily of use to drivers that are written in languages such as C# and VB.NET where resource clean-up is initially managed by the language's runtime garbage collection mechanic. Driver authors should take care to ensure that a client or runtime calling Dispose() does not adversely affect other connected clients. Applications should not call this method.
Public methodRefresh Forces the driver to immediately query its attached hardware to refresh sensor values
Public methodSensorDescription Provides a description of the sensor providing the requested property
Public methodSetupDialog Launches a configuration dialog box for the driver. The call will not return until the user clicks OK or cancel manually.
