get_data

method

RTO.get_data(channel, form='ascii')

Retrieves waveform data from the specified channel

Data is retrieved in the specified data type. Note that data like this can be transferred in two ways: in ASCII form (slow, but human readable) and binary (fast, but more difficult to debug).

Parameters:

channelint

The channel to retrieve data for.

formstr, optional

The data format used for the transmission of waveform data. Allowable values are ascii, real, int8, and int16. Default is ascii.
