Post an integer-type data point into KITE Sheet tab
This command posts an integer-type data point from memory to the KITE Sheet tab in
the user test module and plots it on the graph.
PostDataInt(char *variableName, int *variableValue);
variableName
variableValue
The first parameter is the variable name, defined as char *. For example, if the output
variable name is DrainI, then DrainI (with quotes) is the first parameter.
The second parameter is the value of the variable to be transferred. For example, if
DrainI[10] is transferred, then you call PostDataInt("DrainI", DrainI[10]).
Transfers a string to the KITE Sheet tab
This command transfers a string from memory to the KITE Sheet tab in the user test
module and plots it on the graph.
PostDataString(char *variableName, int *variableValue);
variableName
variableValue
The first parameter is the variable name, defined as char *. For example, if the output
variable name is DrainI, then DrainI (with quotes) is the first parameter.
The second parameter is the value of the variable to be transferred. For example, if
DrainI[10] is transferred, then you call PostDataInt("DrainI", DrainI[10]).
Returns the number of readings in the data buffer
This function is used to determine how many readings are stored in the data buffer.
4225-PMU
Standard and Segment ARB
int pulse_chan_status(INSTR_ID instr_id, int chan, int
*buffersize);
instr_id
chan
*buffersize
Use this function to return the number of readings presently stored in the data buffer.
This function can be called while a sweep is in progress or after it is completed.
For a short sweep (test time in seconds to a minute or more), this function is typically
called after the sweep is completed to determine the total number of readings stored in
the buffer. For a long test, you can use this function to track the progress of the test. A
long test is typically Segment ARB with test time in minutes, hours, or days).
