Details
If the data queue is empty, the function waits up to the timeout value.
If data is not available in the data queue before the timeout expires, the return value is nil.
The entries in the data queue are removed in first-in, first-out (FIFO) order.
If the value is a table, a duplicate of the original table and any subtables is made. The duplicate table
does not contain any references to the original table or to any subtables.
Example
for i = 1, 10 do
dataqueue.add(i)
end
print("There are " .. dataqueue.count
.. " items in the data queue")
while dataqueue.count > 0 do
x = dataqueue.next()
print(x)
end
print("There are " .. dataqueue.count
.. " items in the data queue")
Clears the data queue, adds ten entries, then
reads the entries from the data queue. Note that
your output may differ depending on the setting
of format.asciiprecision.
Output:
There are 10 items in the data queue

fractional seconds. However, the processing time may cause the instrument to delay 5 μs to 10 μs
(typical) more than the requested delay.
