Script launch configuration
A script is to be loaded into the Series 2600 where it will be executed (run). The
launch configuration options include the following:
• Select which script files will be included in the launch.
• Set the launch order for the selected script files.
• Set the script launch to load-only, or to load-and-execute (run).
• Set script storage for the Series 2600: volatile or non-volatile. A script
stored in volatile memory will be lost when the SourceMeter power is turned
off. A script stored in non-volatile memory will not be lost after power is
turned off.
When a script project is created, the launch is configured initially as follows:
• Only the first script file (“main”) is selected to be included in the launch.
• The launch type is set to load-and-execute (run).
• The script project is set to be stored in the volatile memory of the Series
2600. The script will be lost when the Series 2600 power is turned off.
NOTE If the initial launch configuration meets your requirements, the
script is ready to be launched and is explained in “
Launching a
script” later in Section 2.
The flowchart in Figure 2-12 shows the basic process to change the launch
configuration for a script. The labels (A through G) are used to identify reference
links which follow the illustration.
