Buffer status
The buffer reading status attribute includes the status information as a numeric value; see the
following table for values. For example, to access status information for the second element of SMU
channel A buffer 1, use the following command:
stat_info = smua.nvbuffer1.statuses[2]

Dynamic reading buffers
Reading buffers can also be allocated dynamically. You create and allocate the dynamic reading
buffers with the smuX.makebuffer(n) command, where n is the number of readings the buffer can
store. For example, the following command allocates a reading buffer named mybuffer that can
store 100 readings:
mybuffer = smua.makebuffer(100)
You can delete allocated reading buffers by sending the following command:
mybuffer = nil
You can use dynamically allocated reading buffers interchangeably with the smuX.nvbufferY
buffers that are described in Dedicated reading buffer designations (on page 3-8).
