Sif142GetAnReadings (double AnalogArray(0 to 3), double
OutputArray (0 to 13))
Fills two arrays with measurement data. The AnalogArray is voltage. The
OutputArray is filtered power.
If a 0 is returned from this function, there are no new readings available. A non zero
value means that there is new data, with the returned value indicating the number
of readings in the buffer. The buffer is 10 readings long. To flush it, keep reading
until there is no new data.
Sif142GetPower (double PowerArray(0 to 13))
Fills the array with the current output powers. Unlike the Sif142GetReadings
OutputArray, the value is an instantaneous unbuffered value.
