Usage
fractionalSec = bufferVar.fractionalseconds[N]
The fractional second portion of the timestamp to 1 ns resolution
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
Details
This read-only attribute is an array of the fractional portion of the timestamp, in seconds, when each
reading occurred. Seconds are shown as fractions.
Example
testData = buffer.make(50)
trigger.model.load("SimpleLoop", 6, 0, testData)
trigger.model.initiate()
waitcomplete()
print(testData.fractionalseconds[1])
printbuffer(1, 6, testData.fractionalseconds)
Create a reading buffer named testData and make six measurements.
Print the fractional portion of the timestamp for the first reading in the buffer.
Example output:
0.647118937
Print the fractional portion of the timestamp for the first six readings in the buffer.
Example output:
0.647118937, 0.064543, 0.48196127, 0.89938724, 0.316800064, 0.734218263
