Function Usage

This function can be used to programmatically create devices that can be opened using daqOpen. This function can
be used instead of or in conjunction with the DaqX control panel applet. It can also be used with daqDeleteDevice
to create devices on the fly or with daqGetDeviceInventory to dynamically create newly detected devices.

When creating a device, be sure that the alias name is unique and the device type is correct. The InfoType
parameter should be set to indicate which interface information structure is used.

Prototypes
