NI-WSN I/O Variable Buffering Options
- Enable I/O Buffering—Enables you to store data from the variable in a first-in-first-out (FIFO) buffer. The I/O variable overwrites the first value in the FIFO if the FIFO reaches capacity.
- Number of elements—Specifies the number of shared variables the buffer can contain. The value specifies the number of elements of the variable datatype, not the number of bytes.
