DriverException	An error occurred that is not described by one of the more specific ASCOM exceptions. Include sufficient detail in the message text to enable the issue to be accurately diagnosed by someone other than yourself.

Remarks

E.g. a device that implements IDeviceV3 should return 3.

Clients can detect legacy V1 drivers by trying to read ths property. If the driver raises an error, it is a V1 driver. V1 did not specify this property. A driver may also return a value of 1. In other words, a raised error or a return value of 1 indicates that the driver is a V1 driver.
