This VI provides access to the device's buffers. Internally ADAC-LVi buffers are not just
pointers to a DAQ board's subsystem data, but are pointers to a structure that contains the
buffer type, size, current sample count, hardware trigger points, completion flags, status
flags, and error flags. Some of these fields remain constant for the duration of the
acquisition. Others contain relevant information about the current condition of the buffer
and error conditions that can occur in the hardware device's subsystem during the current
acquisition.
A completed buffer only indicates the BUFFER STATUS is available, always check the
StatusFlag and ErrorFlag.
