Usage
:DATA[n]:FEED:CONTrol <name>
:DATA[n]:FEED:CONTrol?
Channel number: For single-channel instruments, the value is 1
Buffer control:
ï‚§ Fill once: NEXT. After the specified number of readings
(buffer size) is stored, buffer operation is disabled.
ï‚§ Fill continuous: ALWays. After the specified number of
readings is stored, operation wraps back to the first buffer
location and overwrites the previous readings
ï‚§ No measurements to fill the buffer: NEVer.
Details
Use this command to set and read the fill mode of the reading buffer.
When a reading buffer is set to NEXT, no data is overwritten in the buffer. When the buffer is filled, no
more data is stored in that buffer and new readings are discarded.
When a reading buffer is set to ALWays, the oldest data is overwritten by the newest data after the
buffer fills.
Example
:DATA:FEED:CONT ALWays
:DATA:FEED:CONT?
Set the buffer mode to always and query the mode.
Output is: ALW
