bufferVar.sourcefunctions
This attribute contains the source function that was being used when the readings were stored in a specified
reading buffer.
Type TSP-Link accessible
Attribute (R) Yes
Usage
sourcefunction = bufferVar.sourcefunctions[N]
sourcefunction
bufferVar
N
Details
The bufferVar.sourcefunctions buffer recall attribute is like an array (a Lua table) of strings
indicating the source function at the time of the measurement.
For dedicated reading buffers, all buffer attributes are saved to nonvolatile memory only when the
reading buffer is saved to nonvolatile memory.
Example 1
sourcefunction = smua.nvbuffer1.sourcefunctions[3]
print(sourcefunction)
Store the source function used to make reading number 3 and output the value.
Example 2
printbuffer(1, 10, smua.nvbuffer1.sourcefunctions)
Print the source function used for 10 readings stored in dedicated reading buffer 1.
Example output:
Voltage, Voltage, Voltage, Voltage, Voltage, Voltage, Voltage, Voltage, Voltage, Voltage
