Function Library
The functions of the 8102’s software drivers use full-names to rep-
resent the functions real meaning. The naming convention rules
are:
In a ‘C’ programming environment:
_{hardware_model}_{action_name}. e.g. _8102_Initial().
In order to recognize the difference between a C library and a VB
library, a capital “B” is placed at the beginning of each function
name e.g. B_8102_Initial().
