Reset the instrument.
Set up the SimpleLoop trigger model template to make 12 readings with a 0.001 s delay. Readings are stored
in
defbuffer1
.
Start the trigger model.
Assign the name
stats
to the table.
Get statistics for the default reading buffer named
defbuffer1
.
Return the number of readings, the minimum reading, maximum reading, and standard deviation. Example
output:
12
4.9435650097e-05
0.00010065840553

This function creates a user-defined reading buffer.
Type TSP-Link accessible Affected by Where saved Default value
Function Yes
Usage
bufferVar = buffer.make( bufferSize )
bufferVar = buffer.make( bufferSize , style)
bufferVar The name of the buffer
bufferSize The maximum number of readings that can be stored in
bufferVar
; minimum is
10
style
The type of reading buffer to create:

Store readings with reduced accuracy (6.5 digits) with no formatting
information, 1
μs accurate timestamp, maximum approximately 20,000,000
readings:
buffer.STYLE_COMPACT

Store readings with full accuracy with formatting, maximum approximately
5,000,000 readings:
buffer.STYLE_STANDARD
(default)

Store the same information as standard, plus additional information:
buffer.STYLE_FULL

Store external reading buffer data:
buffer.STYLE_WRITABLE

Store external reading buffer data with two reading values:
buffer.STYLE_WRITABLE_FULL
