Name-Addressing

The board information string MultiCam parameter implementing the name-addressing mechanism is BoardName.

A MultiCam compliant board is given a name. The name is a string of maximum 16-ASCII characters. It can be altered by the user if desired, and can be made unique for each board in a system.

The name is written in a non-volatile memory residing in the board.

Getting BoardName returns the name of the presently selected MultiCam board.
