Example 2
display.loadmenu.add(
"Test", "DUT1() beeper.beep(2, 500)",
display.SAVE)
Assume a script with a function named
“DUT1” has already been loaded into the
instrument, and the script has NOT been
saved in nonvolatile 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. This example adds
“Test” to the menu, defines the code, and
then saves the
displayName
and code in
nonvolatile memory.
When “Test” is run from the front panel USER
TESTS menu, the function named “DUT1”
executes and the beeper beeps for two
seconds.
Now assume you turn off instrument power.
Because the script was not saved in
nonvolatile memory, the function named
“DUT1” is lost when you turn the instrument
on. When “Test” is again run from the front
panel, an error is generated because DUT1
no longer exists in the instrument as a
function.
Example 3
display.loadmenu.add("Part1",
"testpart([[Part1]], 5.0)", display.SAVE)
Adds an entry called “Part1” to the front panel
“USER TESTS” load menu for the code
testpart([[Part1]], 5.0)
, and saves it
in nonvolatile memory.
