The default name of each device found includes the name of the
FieldPoint module, followed by a space, the @ sign, and the address of
the module (for example,

one I/O Item is created for each channel on the module, and if all the
channels are of the same type, one I/O Item is created to represent all
the channels on that module collectively.
