Script files can be saved to the PC or device on which the browser runs, i.e. Windows PC, Tablet,
or Smartphone. Use the

edited in Excel or any text editor like Notepad. The sample script csv file content
(
scpi_script.cvs
) is shown below. When saving a new script, replace the default scpi_script file
name with a more descriptive file name.

Script Execution Output
The OUTPUT window located in the bottom half of the browser window shows all script output,
including any user comments, events like script start and stop as well as any PRINT commands.
Each output entry is date and time stamped.
The content of the
OUTPUT
window can be saved to a Rich Text File using the
SAVE
button in
the upper right corner of the OUTPUT window. (Do not confuse with the SAVE button in the
script EDITOR window.) The default output file name is “
scpi_script_output.rtf
”. A sequence
number (1), (2) etc will be appended each time the output window content is saved.
A sample RFT file is shown below.
