Go to: Attributes.

The clientDevice node derives from the threadedDevice node and is used specifically for supporting network devices. Attributes such as serverName and deviceName are provided on this node. Similar to the threadedDevice, there is a secondary thread which is used for capturing data from a device such as a TCP socket. This thread will mark the output attribute as dirty so that compute will be called. Compute will pick up the data that the secondary thread has created in order to update the attribute.
