Section 13: Introduction to TSP commands
Retrieve a user script from the instrument
You can review user scripts that are in the nonvolatile memory of the instrument and retrieve them.
To see a list of scripts from the front-panel interface:
1. Press the MENU key.
2. Under Scripts, select Manage. The MANAGE SCRIPTS window is displayed.
The scripts are listed in the Internal Scripts list. To see the contents of the script, you can copy them
to a USB flash drive. You can read the scripts with a text editor. See
drive (on page 13-9).
To retrieve the content of a script, use scriptVar.source, where scriptVar is the name of the
script you want to retrieve. For example, to retrieve a script named contactTest, you would send:
print(contactTest.source)
The command is returned as a single string. The loadscript and endscript keywords are not
included.
Deleting a user script using a remote interface
Deleting a user script deletes the script from the instrument.
To delete a script from the instrument:
Send the command:
script.delete("name")
Where: name is the user-defined name of the script.
Example: Delete a user script
script.delete("test8")
Power up script
The power up script runs automatically when the instrument is powered on. To create a power up
script, save a new script and name it autoexec. The autoexec script is automatically saved to
nonvolatile memory. See
If an autoexec script already exists, you must delete it by sending the
script.delete("autoexec") command. Performing a system reset does not delete the
autoexec script.
