Using HP Instrument BASIC
Creating ASP-like IBASIC Programs
Step 2. Executing the Program
To execute the program, exit editor, then press
4
Run
5
.
The HP 4155A/4156A gets the setup le from the diskette, performs
measurement, then saves setup and results to specied le on the diskette.
However, in All IBASIC mode, no graphics results are displayed. To display
results graphically, the display mode must be All Instrument mode or IBASIC
Status mode.
To execute the program and display the results graphically, change the
display mode to All Instrument or IBASIC Status mode, then press
4
Run
5
.
Step 3. Creating a Longer Program
In the program below, the left side is an ASP program example from the HP
4145B manual.
The right side shows a program that was created by using the typing aid
softkeys to enter the ASP-like commands (of the HP 4155A/4156A) that
correspond to the original ASP commands. These softkeys allow you to easily
create a program that runs on the HP 4155A/4156A and performs the same
operations as the original ASP program.
