Prime DEV_VOID DEV_VOID OPERATOR Prime the pump. The controller has no command for this, so we do
it in software as follows:

- set the flow rate to value given in property PrimeFlowRate (default 24.0)

- set the upper pressure limit to value given in property PrimePressure (default 350)

- start the pump

- wait until upper pressure limit is reached, i.e. the corresponding fault flag is set

- reset flow rate and upper pressure limit to what they were before
Reset DEV_VOID DEV_VOID OPERATOR Clear all faults
