For sake of simplicity, we won't go in details of the below methods used to get or set machines properties.

• When no argument is passed, the method returns the current value.
• When a valid argument is passed, the property is changed and the new value is returned. The returned value takes into account any rounding or truncation that was applied to it. For example, if you pass a floating value but the property is integral, the return value will differ from the argument.
• When an invalid argument is passed, the property remains unchanged and it's current value is returned. No error will be reported.

In most cases, changing a property will not affect an ongoing operation.
