# Device::USB::PCSensor::HidTEMPer::Device(3pm)

Generic device class

## NAME

Device::USB::PCSensor::HidTEMPer::Device - Generic device class

## VERSION

Version 0.02

## SYNOPSIS

None

## DESCRIPTION

This module contains a generic class that all HidTEMPer devices should  inherit from, thereby keeping the implemented methods consistent and making it  possible to use the same code to contact every supported device.

### CONSTANTS

- •

  CONNECTION\_TIMEOUT

  USB communication timeout, specified in milliseconds.

### METHODS

- •

  new( `$usb_device` )

  Creates a new generic Device object.

- •

  **identifier()**

  This method is used to acquire the numerical value representing the device  type identifier.

- •

  **internal()**

  Returns the corresponding Sensor object representing the internal sensor  connected to the device. If the device does not have an internal sensor undef  is returned.

- •

  **external()**

  Returns the corresponding Sensor object representing the external sensor  connected to the device. If the device does not have an external sensor undef  is returned.

- •

  **init()**

  Empty method that should be implemented in order to be able to initialize  a object instance.

## DEPENDENCIES

This module internally includes and takes use of the following packages:

```
  use Carp;
  use Device::USB;
  use Device::USB::Device;
```

This module uses the strict and warning pragmas.

## BUGS
