PV.SprintPoint()

Type: INSTANCE FUNCTION

Purpose: Used in output of data from a PV object.

A data point from the object is printed to an ASCII string. This string can in turn be printed to the active output file.

The format of the data string is:

PointNumber <tab>T<tab>Vfwd<tab>Vrev<tab>Vstep<tab> Ifwd<tab>Irev<tab>Idif<tab>Sig <tab>Ach <tab> Over

You can use this function along with the Printl() function to output point i to the output file as follows:

Printl(“t”,Pv.SprintPoint(i))

Usage:

Result = Pv.SprintPoint(PointNumber)

Result

  • STRING
    • The output string.

PointNumber

  • INDEX
    • The point to be printed. PointNumber is zero-based. If the requested point has not been taken, a parameter error is issued.

T

  • REAL
    • Elapsed time from starting from Pv.Run.

Vfwd

  • REAL
    • Applied forward voltage.

Vrev

  • REAL
    • Applied reverse voltage.

Vstep

  • REAL
    • Applied step voltage.

Ifwd

  • REAL
    • Measured forward current.

Irev

  • REAL
    • Measured reverse current.

Idiff

  • REAL
    • Difference between Ifwd and Irev.

Sig

  • REAL
    • Signal sent to control amplifier

Ach

  • REAL
    • Aux Channel voltage.

Over

  • STRING
    • Hexadecimal number representing overload status
