To set user zero constant for RTD to 300:
dmm.func = "temperature"
dmm.rtdzero = 300
Saves readings from reading buffer to USB flash drive.
dmm.savebuffer('<reading buffer name>', '<filename>')
reading buffer name: The name of a previously created DMM reading buffer.
file name: The destination file name located on the USB flash drive.
The first parameter (reading buffer name) represents the reading buffer to be saved.
The second (file name) is the file name of file to save reading buffer data to on USB
flash drive.
Errors will be generated if reading buffer does not exist or is not a DMM buffer, or if the
destination file name is not specified correctly. The .csv is appended to the file name
(unless the .csv is specified by user). Any specified file extension other than .csv
will generate errors.
Valid destination file name examples:
dmm.savebuffer('mybuffer', '/usb1/mydata')
dmm.savebuffer('mybuffer', '/usb1/mydata.csv')
Invalid destination file name examples:
dmm.savebuffer('mybuffer', '/usb1/mydata.')
-Invalid extension due to period by no following letters for extension.
dmm.savebuffer('mybuffer', '/usb1/mydata.txt')
-Invalid extension. Use .csv or do not specify (no period)
dmm.savebuffer('mybuffer', '/usb1/mydata.txt.csv')
-invalid extension since 2 periods specified (mydata_txt.csv would be correct).
NOTE The reading buffer files saved to the USB flash drive will always have an
extension of .csv
To save readings from valid DMM buffer named mybuffer to a file named mydata.csv
on the USB flash drive:
dmm.savebuffer('mybuffer', '/usb1/mydata.csv')
