# AddEditHardware

### Purpose
This module defines the interfaces for adding and editing hardware (Data Acquisition Systems/DAS) within the DTS application. It provides a comprehensive contract for managing hardware properties, DAS modules, validation, and persistence. The module supports various hardware types including SLICE PRO SIM and SLICE6 AIR-TC configurations, with features for rack sizing, IP addressing, and module management.

### Public Interface

**IAddEditHardwareView** (`IAddEditHardwareView.cs`)
- Signature: `public interface IAddEditHardwareView : IBaseView`
- Members:
  - `void Activated()` - Notifies the view it has been activated for post-activation work.
  - `int ViewDbVersion { get; set; }` - Gets or sets the database version for the view.

**IAddEditHardwareDASModule** (`IAddEditHardwareDASModule.cs`)
- Signature: `public interface IAddEditHardwareDASModule`
- Members:
  - `HardwareTypes ModuleType { get; set; }` - The type of the DAS module.
  - `string SerialNumber { get; set; }` - Serial number of the module.
  - `ImageSource DASImage { get; }` - Image representing the DAS (read-only).
  - `IAddEditHardwareHardware OwningHardware { get; set; }` - Parent hardware that owns this module.
  - `SLICEBridgeTypes SLICEBridgeType { get; set; }` - Bridge type for SLICE modules.
  - `string GetSerialNumberPrefix()` - Returns the prefix for modules of this ModuleType.

**IAddEditHardwareViewModel** (`IAddEditHardwareViewModel.cs`)
- Signature: `public interface IAddEditHardwareViewModel : IBaseViewModel`
- Members:
  - `IAddEditHardwareView View { get; set; }` - Associated view instance.
  - `void Unset()` - Clears/unsets the ViewModel state.
  - `IAddEditHardwareHardware Hardware { get; set; }` - Hardware being operated on.
  - `int? TestId { get; set; }` - Optional test identifier.
  - `void SetHardware(IDASHardware hw, IISOHardware isoHW)` - Initializes ViewModel with given hardware.
  - `bool NotificationsOn { get; set; }` - Controls whether change notifications are sent.
  - `bool Validate(IISOHardware isoHW, ref List<string> errors, ref List<string> warnings, bool displayWindow, bool IsAdd)` - Validates hardware; returns true if commit-able.
  - `void PublishPageError(bool displayWindow, List<string> errors, List<string> warnings)` - Publishes validation errors/warnings.
  - `void Save()` - Commits changes.
  - `IISOHardware GetISOHardware()` - Retrieves ISO hardware representation.
  - `bool AllowStandin { get; set; }` - Whether stand-in hardware is supported.
  - `void SetSLICE6TreeView(ISLICE6TreeView treeView, IHardwareListViewModel treeViewModel)` - Sets SLICE6 treeview module access.
  - `ISLICE6TreeView SLICE6TreeView { get; }` - Access to current SLICE6TreeView.

**IAddEditHardwareHardware** (`IAddEditHardwareHardware.cs`)
- Signature: `public interface IAddEditHardwareHardware`
- Members:
  - `HardwareTypes HardwareType { get; set; }` - DAS hardware type.
  - `string SerialNumber { get; set; }` - Serial number.
  - `string FirmwareVersion { get; set; }` - Firmware version.
  - `string IPAddress { get; set; }` - IP address (if supported).
  - `bool SupportsIPAddress
