/** This "software driver" implements the communication protocol for interfacing
 * a SICK LMS 2XX laser scanners through a standard RS232 serial port (or a
 * USB2SERIAL converter).
  *   The serial port is opened upon the first call to "doProcess" or
 * "initialize", so you must call "loadConfig" before
  *   this, or manually call "setSerialPort". Another alternative is to call the
 * base class method C2DRangeFinderAbstract::bindIO,
  *   but the "setSerialPort" interface is probably much simpler to use.
  *
  *   For an example of usage see the example in
 * "samples/SICK_laser_serial_test".
  *   See also the example configuration file for rawlog-grabber in
 * "share/mrpt/config_files/rawlog-grabber".
