bufferVar.dates
This attribute contains the dates of readings that are stored in the reading buffer.
Type TSP-Link accessible Affected by Where saved Default value
Attribute (R) Yes
Restore configuration
Instrument reset
Not applicable Not applicable
Usage
date = bufferVar.dates[N]
The date of readings stored in bufferVar element N
The name of the reading buffer, which may be a default buffer (defbuffer1 or
defbuffer2) or a user-defined buffer
The reading number N; can be any value from 1 to the number of readings in the
buffer; use the bufferVar.n
command to determine the number of readings in the
buffer
Details
The dates are formatted as month, day, year.
This is not available if the reading buffer style is set to compact.
Example
testData = buffer.make(50)
trigger.model.load("SimpleLoop", 3, 1, testData)
trigger.model.initiate()
waitcomplete()
print(testData.dates[1])
printbuffer(1, testData.n, testData.dates)
Create a reading buffer named
testData, configure the instrument to
make three measurements, and store the
readings in the buffer.
Print the first reading date.
Example output:
03/01/2013
Prints the dates for readings 1 through the
last reading in the buffer.
Example output:
03/01/2013, 03/01/2013,
