The MMDeviceBase type exposes the following members.

Methods

  NameDescription
BuildPropertyList
This is used from the startup scripts to build the propertylist without using the default propertylist
ClearPropBuffer
Runs all device property change requests that have been made since the device was declared busy.
Equals
Determines whether the specified Object is equal to the current Object.
(Inherited from Object.)
Finalize
Allows an Object to attempt to free resources and perform other cleanup operations before the Object is reclaimed by garbage collection.
(Inherited from Object.)
GetAllDeviceProperties
Returns active property list for this device. Values autoupdate and produce an event to ensure all users have the same value
GetDevicePropertyInfo
Gets active information from each single property value for this device. Values autoupdate and produce an event to ensure all users have the same value
GetDevicePropertyInfoDetails
Returns all the gory details about the property given in propname
GetDevicePropertyNames
Gets a list of all the property names possible for this device.
GetDevicePropertyValue
Gets the value of the device property directly from Micromanager or whatever is the source
GetDevicePropertyValues
Gets a snapshot of all the device properties and their current values
GetHashCode
Serves as a hash function for a particular type.
(Inherited from Object.)
GetType
Gets the Type of the current instance.
(Inherited from Object.)
InitializePropertyList
This builds the device property list. It must be called before the device does anything. Setting clear properties to false allows the device adapter or user to build the property list in several steps. This is useful for devices that have both real micromanager properties as well as virtual properties such as the function generators
MakeOffical
If this is a common device, then this will register the device with micromanager and easycore that it is the go-to device
MemberwiseClone
Creates a shallow copy of the current Object.
(Inherited from Object.)
pi_OnPropValueSet
Receives notification that the value has been updated
PropertyIsSaveable
Determines if a device property has been marked as needing to be saved
RunCommand
This runs a CommandState command. This is used to change a property value, or can be a custom command for this device
SetCoreOverloaded.
SetDeviceProperty
Sets the value of the device property. All values must be strings as this is the protocol set by micromanager. If the device is busy, then this will wait until the device is ready to accept commands
SetPropUI
Connects the default property listing GUI to this device. The properties are automatically loaded into the prop list.
StopDevice
Usually called on shut down to get the device to quit
ToString
Returns a String that represents the current Object.
(Inherited from Object.)
