Class Members

Member		Description
	Constructor	Initializes a new instance of the Serializer class.
	CommunicationStarted	Occurs when communication with the serializer board has been established.
	CommunicationStopped	Occurs when communication with the serializer board has been shutdown.
	AsyncCallbacksEnabledDefault	The default value for the AsyncCallbacksEnabled property, which is set to false
	BaudRateDefault	The default value for the BaudRate property, which is set to 19200.
	PortNameDefault	The default value for the PortName property, which is set to "COM1"
	UnitsDefault	The default value for the Units property, which is Ids.Units.English.
	BlinkLED	Blinks the specified LED, on the Serializer board, which is of type Ids.LedId public void BlinkLED(LedId led, int rate)
	GetFirmwareVersion	Retrieve the firmware version string from the Serialzer board. public string GetFirmwareVersion();
	PumpEvents	Invokes all outstanding event callbacks on this thread. Does nothing if AsyncCallbacksEnabled is set to true. public void PumpEvents();
	Restore	Restores the Serializer to the default factory state. public void Restore();
	Run	Performs a serializer run loop for the calling thread. Communication with the serializer board is started and this thread is blocked until ShutDown() is called (presumably in an event handler). public void Run();
	ShutDown	Stop communication with the serializer board and cause the the run loop to be exited. public void ShutDown();
	StartCommunication	Starts communication with the Serializer board. All serializer componenets will now begin performing their tasks. public void StartCommunication();
	StopCommunication	Stops all communication with the Serializer board. All serializer componenets will now stop performing their tasks. public void StopCommunication();
	AsyncCallbacksEnabled	Enables asynchronous event callbacks. This allows events to be invoked on ThreadPool Threads. Otherwise they are queued internally until PumpEvents() is invoked directly or implicitly when using the Run() loop.
	BaudRate	The baud rate of the serial port to use to communicate with the Serializer.
	PortName	The name of the serial port to use to communicate with the Serializer.
	Units	The units used to convert sensor readings (sonar, infrared, thermopile, etc.) queried on the Serializer.
