bufferVar.sourceoutputstates
This attribute indicates the state of the source output for readings that are stored in a specified buffer.
Type TSP-Link accessible Affected by Where saved Default value
Usage
state = bufferVar.sourceoutputstates[N]
The output state ("Off" or "On") when reading N of the specified buffer was
acquired
The reading buffer; can be a dynamically allocated buffer (user-defined), or a
dedicated reading buffer (such as smua.nvbuffer1)
The reading number (1 to bufferVar.n)
Details
The sourceoutputstates buffer recall attribute is similar to an array (a Lua table) of strings. This
array indicates the state of the source output ("Off" or "On") at the time of the measurement.
For dedicated reading buffers, all buffer attributes are saved to nonvolatile memory only when the
reading buffer is saved to nonvolatile memory.
