Using a TSP command:
Save the script that you want to use as the power-on default to be
autoexec
. For example, to save
the commands that are presently in the instrument to be the power-on defaults, send the command:
createconfigscript("autoexec")
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.
