Now we process the buffer:
/* Print the received characters */
for (i=0;i<100;i++) {
sprintf(response, “%6d ”, hundred[i]);
strcat(textstr, response);
if ((i%8)==7) {
strcat(textstr,"\r\n");
}
}
strcat(textstr,"\r\n");
SetDlgItemText(hWndDlg, 201, (LPSTR)textstr);
The readings are stored in the local variable textstr in the above example. They could, however be
placed into a text-type control. Refer to the Driver488/W31 status display in the ADC488 Response
window, shown in the following figure:
The functions described so far in this Sub-Chapter provide enough functionality for a basic data
acquisition program. The following program listing covers the examples used. Additional functions
provided by Driver488/W31 are described in the “Section III: Command References” of this manual.
