# isIdentifying

A Bool where a value of true indicates that the object’s hardware is
drawing attention to itself, typically by flashing or lighting up its front
panel display. A value of false indicates that this function is turned off. This
makes it easy for a user to associate the physical hardware with its
representation in an application. Typically, this property is only supported
by AudioHardwareDevices and AudioHardwareBoxes.

```
var isIdentifying: Bool { get throws }
```
