Auto Recording
If enabled, the SCPI Recorder automatically records the required SCPI commands and
parameter values for the settings and functions you use while operating the
R&S
FSV/A.
To view the list of currently recorded SCPI commands at any time, select the SCPI
Recorder icon in the toolbar.
Recording is stopped when you deactivate "Auto Recording".
To continue recording, reactivate "Auto Recording".
To start a new SCPI command list, select
before activating "Auto Recording".
Note:
●
Some parameters cannot be set by a SCPI command.
In this case,
no SCPI command found
is entered in the list instead of a command
when you record settings automatically.
●
The R&S
FSV/A automatically clears the SCPI command list after booting.
List of recorded commands / script editor
The currently recorded commands are displayed in a basic editor directly in the SCPI
Recorder dialog box. Right-click the editor to display a context-sensitive menu with
basic editing functions for the list, such as copy, paste, delete, undo and redo.
Remove Last
Deletes the last recorded SCPI command from the list.
Clear All
Removes all recorded commands from the current SCPI command list.
Save As
Saves the current SCPI command list to the
C:\R_S\INSTR\\ScpiRecordings
directory in ASCII format with the file extension
.inp
.
Tip:
You can execute the command list in an
.inp
file without further editing using the
IECWIN tool provided with the R&S
Chapter 13.3, "The IECWIN Tool"
Export
Exports the current SCPI command list to the specified file and directory in the
selected format. By default, the file is stored in the
C:\R_S\INSTR\\ScpiRecordings
directory. Besides the recorded commands
themselves, the exported script includes all format-specific header data required to
execute the script using an external program on the controller.
Before storing the file, you can display a
preview
of the file in the selected format.
Currently, the following file formats are supported:
"C++"
A commonly used general programming language for various applica-
tions (
*.cpp
)
"Plain SCPI"
Represents SCPI base format, that is ASCII format, saved as a text
file (
*.inp
); contains no additional header data
