Remarks
If the DeviceEnabled property is set to true, and the device is an exclusive-use device, then POS for .NET first disables the device. (Release does not change the device-enabled state of shareable devices.) If Release is successful, it sets the Claimed property to false.
Release may throw a PosControlException with the following values:
