See Also:

Control, CommandService, DeviceService, MeasurementService, A ControlService is a logical representation of a message. This may be a message from a hardware device, or one sent to a hardware device. This is the super of CommandService, MeasurementService, SignalService, and DeviceService. Each of these type provides a particular way to interface with a hardware device. Controls are not generally used in a user application. Typically, the Commands, Measurements, and Signals are used through the DeviceService Interface, rather than acessing the Controls directly.
