Line Description
35 to 46 Resets time stamp and performs the pulsed spot measurement. And stores the returned
data into the
mret and tret string variables. Finally, stores the measured data into the
data array.
48 to 50 Applies 0 V from the all channels. And transfers the data stored in the data variable to
the save_data subprogram (see Table 3-1 ). And the subprogram will save the data into a
CSV file specified by the fname variable and displays the data on a message box.
53 to 54 Displays a message box to show an error message if the error is detected.
