API Calls:

What happens after enumeration?

After enumeration the device is ready to perform the
function it was designed for. It does so by issuing a set of
properly sequenced API calls.

Definition:

Application Program Interface (API): A formalized
set of firmware calls and routines that can be
referenced by an application program to access driver
functions.
