Example 1
reset()
testData = buffer.make(200)
format.data = format.ASCII
format.asciiprecision = 6
trigger.model.load("SimpleLoop", 6, 0, testData)
trigger.model.initiate()
waitcomplete()
printbuffer(1, testData.n, testData.readings, testData.units,
testData.relativetimestamps)
Reset the instrument.
Set the data format and ASCII precision.
Use trigger model SimpleLoop to create a 6-count loop with no delays that stores data in the reading buffer
testBuffer
.
Start the trigger model, wait for the commands to complete, and output the readings.
Use of
testData.n
(
bufferVar .n
) indicates that the instrument should output all readings in the reading
buffer. In this example,
testBuffer.n
equals 6.
Example of output data:
1.10458e-11, Amp DC, 0.00, 1.19908e-11, Amp DC, 1.01858e-01, 1.19908e-11, Amp DC,
2.03718e-01, 1.20325e-11, Amp DC, 3.05581e-01, 1.20603e-11, Amp DC, 4.07440e-01, 1.20325e-11,
Amp DC, 5.09299e-01
Example 2
for x = 1, testData.n do
printbuffer(x,x,testData, testData.units, testData.relativetimestamps)
end
Using the same buffer created in Example 1, output the readings, units and relative timestamps on a separate
line for each reading.
1.10458e-11, Amp DC, 0.00
1.19908e-11, Amp DC, 1.01858e-01
1.19908e-11, Amp DC, 2.03718e-01
1.20325e-11, Amp DC, 3.05581e-01
1.20603e-11, Amp DC, 4.07440e-01
1.20325e-11, Amp DC, 5.09299e-01
