Does BFGminer halt processing if ASIC miners reach a high temperature?

From the README of BFGminer, I see:

The totals line shows the following:
 6/32   75.0C | 171.3/170.8/171.2Gh/s | A:729 R:8+0(.01%) HW:0/.81%

Each column is as follows:
  The number of devices and processors currently mining
  Hottest temperature reported by any processor

I don't see the temperature column.

Does this mean I have the incorrect Windows drivers?

Does it mean I need to pass a parameter to BFGminer?

Your temperature is 75.0C – Willtech – 2018-05-02T11:57:20.930

Not all miners return temperature information, it's only shown when available.

For example with a Block Erupter, there's none to show.

So what are my options for using the Block Erupters? If I leave them overnight, can they be damaged by overheating? – Steve – 2017-12-24T03:08:56.900

There's no point in using them, they make something like $0.00000048 a day. – Anonymous – 2017-12-24T03:14:46.220

I don't mind, I'm running an experiment. – Steve – 2017-12-24T06:03:41.950
