Exceptions

Exception	Condition
MethodNotImplementedException	Thrown if no actions are supported.
ActionNotImplementedException	It is intended that the SupportedActions method will inform clients of driver capabilities, but the driver must still throw an ActionNotImplementedException exception if it is asked to perform an action that it does not support.
NotConnectedException	If the device is not connected
DriverException	An error occurred that is not described by one of the more specific ASCOM exceptions. Include sufficient detail in the message text to enable the issue to be accurately diagnosed by someone other than yourself.

Remarks

Must be implemented.

Action names are case insensitive, so SelectWheel, selectwheel and SELECTWHEEL all refer to the same action.

The names of all supported actions must be returned in the SupportedActions property.
