2.4 M1X22_CloseDevice
Description

program to release all resource associated with the open device. Closing this device will automatically
force the closing of any opened channel handles.

2.5 M1X22_OpenChannel
Description
This API performs the low level opening of the channel descriptor. By default, the channel descriptor is
known as “/dev/tsc_1x22_ctl_channelxx”, where XX varies from 1 to 16 representing channel 0 to
15 respectively. Calling to the open channel API is mandatory before any access to the channel can be
performed, and it must be called after the open device as this API requires the device handle to be
passed in as the second parameter. A successful open channel returns a non-zero channel handle that
can be used to access other channel related APIs.
