• Updated the Device.ip_address property to remove the USB connection type exclusion.

Fixed

• Updated the DeviceManager to gracefully exit if the close method is not called in any scripts.
• Updated the DeviceManager.open() method to behave in a more expected way (ensures existing Python objects get properly re-opened and pointers to objects don't get lost, replaced, or become stale) when called after previously closing the DeviceManager.
