Section 6: Instrument programming
The .save() command saves the script to nonvolatile memory. This saves the change when the
instrument is turned off. See
Example
Code
test5.autorun = "yes"
test5.save()
Autoexec script
The autoexec script runs automatically when the instrument is turned on. It runs after all the scripts
have loaded and any scripts marked as autorun have run.
To create a script that executes automatically, create and load a new script and name it autoexec.
See Create and load a script
If you use the create configuration script feature, you can assign the configuration script to be the
autoexec script. See
You need to save the autoexec script to nonvolatile memory to save the script when the instrument is
turned off. See
Example: With loadscript command
Code
loadscript autoexec
display.clear()
display.settext('Hello from autoexec')
endscript
autoexec.save()
Example: TSB Embedded
Code
display.clear()
display.settext('Hello from autoexec')
