X-317™ Users Manual
Configuration and Setup
4.1.6 Script Tab
The X-317 can be used to run simple custom programs written in a language similar to BASIC. This
page is used to load and execute these programs. Before it can be loaded to the X-317, a script must
first be written as a .txt file. The file must then be uploaded to the X-317. The maximum size of script that
can be uploaded to the device is 2K bytes. Information on writing a basic program for the X-317 can be
found in
Appendix D: Basic Scripts
.
Note: An ASCII standard text file format should be used, such as Windows Notepad, Programmer's
Notepad, vi, or other text editor that output the file as a .txt. Rich Text Format (.rtf) used by Microsoft
WordPad is NOT compatible.
BASIC Script
This field displays the .txt file that is uploaded to the X-317. Text displayed in this screen cannot be
edited. In order to edit any script, it must be rewritten in the .txt file and uploaded to the unit again.
Interpreter Status
This field displays whether the program is continuing to run, has stopped or finished, or if there are
errors contained in the script. If there are errors in the script, the line on which the error occurred is
displayed.
