This function should be called when the device is no longer used. The override function must close a socket if it is an IP device, close the serial port, or disable discrete I/O lines. All worker threads that are used to send or read data must be stopped.

Creates an object that contains all the relevant information required to generate a proxy used to communicate with a remote object.

Determines whether the specified Object is equal to the current Object.

Allows an Object to attempt to free resources and perform other cleanup operations before the Object is reclaimed by garbage collection.

Implements the corresponding member of the ICustomTypeDescriptor interface. May be overridden in derived classes to provide custom type information.

Used to verify whether a delegate function is assigned to line.

Implements the corresponding member of the ICustomTypeDescriptor interface. May be overridden in derived classes to provide custom type information.

Implements the corresponding member of the ICustomTypeDescriptor interface. May be overridden in derived classes to provide custom type information.

Serves as a hash function for a particular type.

Get the input delegate associated with a particular input line

Retrieves the current lifetime service object that controls the lifetime policy for this instance.

Returns polarity of line. When input is true, line is an input line number; otherwise, it is an output line number.

Implements the GetObjectData method of the ISerializable interface.

Implements the corresponding member of the ICustomTypeDescriptor interface. May be overridden in derived classes to provide custom type information.

Implements the corresponding member of the ICustomTypeDescriptor interface. May be overridden in derived classes to provide custom type information.

Implements the corresponding member of the ICustomTypeDescriptor interface. May be overridden in derived classes to provide custom type information.

Gets the Type of the current instance.

Obtains a lifetime service object to control the lifetime policy for this instance.

Reads the current state of an input line.

Creates a shallow copy of the current Object.

Creates a shallow copy of the current MarshalByRefObject object.

This method should be called internally whenever the object's state may have changed.

This method may be called internally whenever a derived object's state may have changed and the derived object expresses this change via a derived CogChangedEventArgs class.

Initialize the derived device to its initial states.

Cognex internal use only

Re-enables raising of the Changed event after SuspendChangedEvent has been called, and raises the Changed event if the ChangedEventSuspended count is reduced to zero and any changes were made while events were suspended. Must be called once for each call to SuspendChangedEvent.

Turn on or off a delegate function call assigned to line. You can assign delegate functions to all input lines at the beginning, and control an input line change notification using this function.

Sets the polarity of line from either low to high or high to low.

Temporarily suspends the raising of the Changed event. May be called more than once, and a corresponding call to ResumeAndRaiseChangedEvent must be made for each call to SuspendChangedEvent.

Returns a String that represents the current Object.

A CogIODevice derived class must implement Write. The derived classes are responsible for translating the input, and sending the translated output to the physical device.

Output lines are not thread-safe. You must make sure that your code using this method is thread-safe.
