Displayed messages and input prompts are used in scripts to prompt the operator
to enter parameter values from the front panel. See
section) for more information.
User scripts
User scripts can be written using your own program or the Test Script Builder.
User scripts are loaded into the Series 2600 and can be saved in non-volatile
memory. Scripts not saved in non-volatile memory will be lost when the Series
2600 is turned off.

When creating a script using the Test Script Builder, only
the chunk is typed in as shown above. See
Script Builder" earlier in Section 2 for details on creating,
loading and running the script.
When creating a script using a programming language,
shell commands must be included to manage interactions
between the host computer and TSP. The
command loads the script into the Series 2600 and
signifies the end of the script.
