14-14 Display Operations
Example 1:
Assume a script with a function named "DUT1" has already been loaded into the
Series 2600, and the script has NOT been saved in non-volatile memory.
Now assume you want to add a test named "Test" to the USER TESTS menu.
You want the test to run the function named "DUT1" and sound the beeper. The
following command will add "Test" to the menu, define the chunk, and then save
displayname
display.loadmenu.add("Test", "DUT1() beeper.beep(2, 500)",
display.SAVE)
When "Test" is run from the front panel USER TESTS menu, the function named
"DUT1" will execute and the beeper will beep for two seconds.
Now assume you cycle power on the Series 2600. Since the script was not saved
in non-volatile memory, the function named "DUT1" is lost. When "Test" is again
run from the front panel, the beeper will beep, but "DUT1" will not execute
because it no longer exists in the chunk.
Example 2:
The following command adds an entry called "Part1" to the front panel "USER
TESTS" submenu for the chunk "testpart([[Part1]], 5.0)", and saves it in non-
volatile memory:
display.loadmenu.add("Part1", "testpart([[Part1]], 5.0)",
display.SAVE)
Deleting USER TESTS menu entries
The following function can be used to delete an entry from the front panel USER
TESTS submenu:
display.loadmenu.delete(displayname)
displayname
Example:
The following command removes the entry named "Part1" from the front panel
USER TESTS submenu:
display.loadmenu.delete("Part1")
Running a test from the front panel
Front panel user tests and factory tests can be run as follows:
1. Press the LOAD key to display the LOAD TEST menu.
2. Select the USER or FACTORY menu item.
3. Position the blinking cursor on the test to be run.
