Example
format.data = format.ASCII
format.asciiprecision = 6
printbuffer(1, rb1.n, rb1)
This assumes that rb1 is a valid reading buffer in the run-time environment. The use of rb1.n
(bufferVar.n) indicates that the instrument should output all readings in the reading buffer. In this example,
rb1.n equals 10.
Example of output data (rb1.readings):
4.07205e-05, 4.10966e-05, 4.06867e-05, 4.08865e-05, 4.08220e-05, 4.08988e-05,
4.08250e-05, 4.09741e-05, 4.07174e-05, 4.07881e-05
