usb_tc08_open_unit_async
short usb_tc08_open_unit_async (void)
This routine begins enumerating USB TC-08 units in the background and provides a
return immediately, so the calling thread can continue executing other code.
Note: The driver is thread safe and will not allow access to a single unit from more
than one application. If, therefore, usb_tc08_open_unit_async does not find a
unit, check that other applications are not using the same USB TC-08. This includes
applications on other user accounts on the same computer, where fast user switching
is supported.
