buffer.delete()

This function deletes a user-defined reading buffer.
Type TSP-Link accessible
Function Yes
Usage
buffer.delete(readingBufferVariable)
readingBufferVariable
Details
You cannot delete the default reading buffers, defbuffer1 and defbuffer2.
Example
buf400 = buffer.make(400)
smu.measure.read(buf400)
printbuffer(1, buf400.n, buf400.relativetimestamps)
buffer.delete(buf400)
Create a 400-element reading buffer named buf400.
Make measurements and store the readings in buf400.
Print the relative timestamps for each reading in the buffer.
Example output, assuming five readings are stored in the buffer:
0, 0.412850017, 0.821640085, 1.230558058, 1.629523236
