Details
If
startIndex
is set to less than 1 or if
endIndex
is more than the size of the index, 9.37
is returned for each value outside the allows index and an event is generated.
When any given reading buffers are used in overlapped commands that have not yet completed (at
least to the desired index), this function outputs data as it becomes available.
When there are outstanding overlapped commands to acquire data,
n
refers to the index that the last
entry in the table will have after all the readings have completed.
If you pass a reading buffer instead of a reading buffer subtable, the default subtable for that reading
buffer is used.
This command generates a single response message that contains all data.
The
format.data
attribute controls the format of the response message.
You can use the
bufferVar
attributes that are listed in the following table with the print buffer
command. For example, if
testData
is the buffer, you can use
testData.dates
attribute to print
the date of each reading in the
testData
buffer.
Attribute
Description
bufferVar
.n
The number of readings in the specified buffer. See
bufferVar.n.
bufferVar
.readings
The readings stored in a specified reading buffer. See
bufferVar.readings.
bufferVar
.dates
The dates of readings stored in the reading buffer. See
bufferVar.dates.
bufferVar
.statuses
The status values of readings in the reading buffer. See
bufferVar.statuses.
bufferVar
.formattedreadings
The stored readings formatted as they appear on the
front-panel display. See bufferVar.formattedreadings.
bufferVar
.sourceformattedvalues
The source levels formatted as they appear on the front-panel
display when the readings in the reading buffer were acquired.
See bufferVar.sourceformattedvalues.
bufferVar
.sourcevalues
The source levels that were being output when readings in the
reading buffer were acquired. See bufferVar.sourcevalues.
bufferVar
.sourcestatuses
The source status conditions of the instrument for the reading
point. See bufferVar.sourcestatuses.
bufferVar
.times
The time when the instrument made the readings. See
bufferVar.times.
bufferVar
.timestamps
The timestamps of readings stored in the reading buffer. See
bufferVar.timestamps.
bufferVar
.relativetimestamps
The timestamps, in seconds, when each reading occurred
relative to the timestamp of reading buffer entry number 1. See
bufferVar.relativetimestamps.
bufferVar
.sourceunits
The units of measure of the source. See
bufferVar.sourceunits.
bufferVar
.seconds
The nonfractional seconds portion of the timestamp when the
reading was stored in UTC format. See bufferVar.seconds.
bufferVar
.fractionalseconds
The fractional portion of the timestamp (in seconds) of when
each reading occurred. See bufferVar.fractionalseconds.
bufferVar
.units
The unit of measure that is stored with readings in the reading
buffer. See bufferVar.units.
