Notes:
This method does not return a Success/Error status. Use the LastErrorCode property to check if
an error occurred during the method.
[CR] represents the carriage return character ASCII 0x13.
If you are comparing the Sensor Card Type against a constant, for strain gage cards use the
constant value ‘7003-8-SG” as not all strain gage types listed are currently in use.
