Hi everyone,
I was trying to write a MATLAB script which plots data from the oscilloscope every couple of seconds until stopped by user. The way it was done was that, in a while loop, commend was sent to the oscillosopce to do a single acquisition. Then data was read using binblockread, and fread was used to remove the terminating character. Then the data were plotted, and the script pause for a few seconds before starting a new acquisition.
I was not sure about one thing: when binblockread reads data from the visa object, does it clear the input buffer? Or, when I do the new acquisition, will old data automatically get overwitten? Will the old data remain in the input buffer, and I end up with a mixture of old and new data every time I do another acquisition?
Ideas, suggestions, or links of useful resources would all be really appreciated. Thanks!
