Checking for Measurement Completion
You can append this program or insert it into another program when you
need to know when a measurement is complete. If it is at the end of a
program it will tell you when measurement is complete. If you insert it into a
program, it will halt the program until the current measurement is complete.
This program is also in the state analyzer example program in "Making a state
analyzer measurement" on page 28-5. It is included in the state analyzer
example program to show how it can be used in a program to halt the
program until measurement is complete.
