Manage scripts
This section describes how to create scripts by sending commands over the remote interface.
Tools for managing scripts
To manage scripts, you can send messages to the instrument, use your own development tool or
program, use Keithley Instruments Test Script Builder (TSB) software, or use TSB Embedded on the
web interface of the instrument.
TSB software is a programming tool that you can download from the Product Support and Downloads
web page (tek.com/product-support). You can use it to create, modify, debug, and store Test Script
Processor (TSP
®
) scripting engine scripts. For more information about using the TSB software, see
Using Test Script Builder (TSB) (on page 8-67).
TSB Embedded is a tool with a reduced set of features than the complete Keithley TSB software.
TSB Embedded has both script-building functionality and console functionality (single-line commands).
It is accessed from a web browser. Refer to Working with TSB Embedded (on page 8-70) for
additional information.
If you are using TSB or TSB Embedded to create scripts, you do not need to use the commands
loadscript or loadandrunscript and endscript.
Create and load a script
You create scripts by loading them into the runtime environment of the instrument. You can load a
script as a named script or as the anonymous script.
Once a script is loaded into the instrument, you can execute it remotely or from the front panel.
