Signal Hound | API Functions
The function attempts to open the device with serial number specified by the serialNumber parameter.
Only BB60C devices can be opened by specifying the serial number. If the serial number specified is zero,
the first BB60A found will be opened. If a device cannot be found matching the provided serial number,
the function will return unsuccessful. If a device is opened successfully , a handle to the device will be
returned through the device pointer which can be used to target that device for other API calls.
The function when successful is a blocking call and takes about 3 seconds to finish.
If you wish to target multiple devices or wish to target devices across processes see Multiple Devices
