CustomDevice Methods

The CustomDevice type exposes the following members.

NameDescription
AddCustomDeviceChannelIfNotFound Adds a custom device channel with the name and guid you specify to the current section, if the channel does not already exist under the section. If the channel you specify already exists, this method takes no action and returns a reference to the existing channel. (Inherited from CustomDeviceSection.)
AddCustomDeviceSectionIfNotFound Adds a custom device subsection with the name and guid you specify to the current section, if the subsection does not already exist under the section. If the subsection does exist, this method does nothing. (Inherited from CustomDeviceSection.)
AddCustomDeviceWaveformIfNotFound Adds a CustomDeviceWaveform with the name, dataType and guid you specify to the current section, if the CustomDeviceWaveform does not already exist under the section. If the CustomDeviceWaveform you specify already exists, this method takes no action and returns a reference to the existing CustomDeviceWaveform. (Inherited from CustomDeviceSection.)
AddDependencies Adds dependencies to a custom device. Dependencies are any files, such as DLLs or VIs, that the custom device requires and that you want to deploy to the target along with the custom device.
AddErrorChannel Adds an error channel to the custom device. An asynchronous custom device can send a fatal error status to the Primary Control Loop of the VeriStand Engine by writing a non-zero error code value to this channel. (Inherited from CustomDeviceSection.)
AddInputOverflowCountChannel Adds an input overflow count channel to a section in an asynchronous custom device. Input overflow count channels track the number of times the system fails to write data to an asynchronous custom device because the FIFO is full. A custom device can have only one input overflow count channel. (Inherited from CustomDeviceSection.)
AddOutputUnderflowCountChannel Adds an output underflow count channel to a section in an asynchronous custom device. Output underflow count channels track the number of times the system fails to read data from an asynchronous custom device because there is no data to read. A custom device can have only one output underflow count channel. (Inherited from CustomDeviceSection.)
EqualsDetermines whether the specified Object is equal to the current Object. (Inherited from Object.)
Finalize Class Destructor (Overrides CustomDeviceSection.Finalize().)
FindChildrenByGUID Gets an array that contains the child BaseNode elements of the current node that match the specified TypeGUID. (Inherited from BaseNode.)

GetCustomDeviceChannelList Gets an array that contains the CustomDeviceChannel elements from the current CustomDevice.
GetCustomDeviceSectionList Gets an array that contains the CustomDeviceSection elements from the current CustomDevice. Sections are not required in custom devices, but provide a way to organize custom device channels into a logical hierarchy.
GetCustomDeviceWaveformList Gets an array that contains the CustomDeviceWaveform elements from the current CustomDevice.
GetDependencies Gets an array that contains the DependentFile elements from the current CustomDevice. Dependent files are any files that the device requires and that deploy to the target along with the custom device.

GetDoubleProperty Gets the double-precision floating point value of the custom device item property specified by name. (Inherited from CustomDeviceBase.)
GetDriverVIForOwnerTargetType Gets the RT Driver VI for the target indicated by the custom device. A single custom device can have multiple RT Driver VIs if the device supports multiple real-time operating systems or multiple execution modes.
GetDriverVIs Gets all the RT Driver VIs associated with the custom device. A single custom device can have multiple RT Driver VIs if the device supports multiple real-time operating systems or multiple execution modes.
GetHashCodeServes as a hash function for a particular type. (Inherited from Object.)

GetParent Gets the parent node of this node. (Inherited from BaseNode.)
GetPropertyNames Gets the names of all the properties associated with a custom device item. Custom device item properties store and communicate state information. (Inherited from CustomDeviceBase.)
GetPropertyType Gets the data type of the custom device item property specified by propertyName. (Inherited from CustomDeviceBase.)
GetStringArrayProperty Gets the array of strings that is the value of the custom device item property specified by name. (Inherited from CustomDeviceBase.)
GetStringProperty Gets the string value of the custom device item property specified by name. (Inherited from CustomDeviceBase.)
GetTimingSourceInitVIs Gets the Timing Source Initialization VIs associated with the custom device. If you configure the custom device as the master timing source for the target, these VIs create a timing source for the Primary Control Loop.
GetTypeGets the Type of the current instance. (Inherited from Object.)
GetU16Property Gets the unsigned 16-bit integer value of the custom device item property specified by name. (Inherited from CustomDeviceBase.)
