Run a user script from the instrument front panel
From the instrument front panel, you can load and run a user script.
To run the code from the front panel and add it to the USER menu:
1. Press the
LOAD
key.
2. Select
USER
.
3. Select the user chunk from list and press the
ENTER
key. The chunk is loaded into the run-time
environment.
If you are used to using
in Test Script Builder, note that the output of the prints using this
procedure will not function the same as when you are in Test Script Builder. You may find that it
makes more sense to use Test Script Builder to get the output you need.
4. Press the
RUN
key to execute.
To run a script directly without adding it to the USER menu:
1. Press the
LOAD
key.
2. Select

and press the

key. There may be a short pause before a menu is
displayed that represents the scripts in the instrument.
3. Select the script from the list and press the
ENTER
key. Now the script is loaded for front panel
execution.
If you are used to using
in Test Script Builder, note that the output of the prints using this
procedure will not function the same as when you are in Test Script Builder. You may find that it
makes more sense to use Test Script Builder to get the output you need.
4. Press the

key
to execute.
