DeviceExecute

DeviceExecute[device,"command"]

executes the specified command on a device.

DeviceExecute[device,"command",params]

Details

  • A device can be specified either by a DeviceObject or by a string representing a device class.
  • DeviceExecute is a blocking function; when called, it communicates with the device and does not return until it has the data it needs.
  • The parameters params can be given either as a list of raw parameters or as an association or list of rules giving names and values of parameters.
  • DeviceExecute returns a Wolfram Language version of the result of executing the specified command on the device.
