Model 2601B-PULSE System SourceMeter Instrument Reference Manual Section 11: TSP command reference
2601B-PULSE-901-01A April 2020 11-149
This function does not wait for the script to finish execution.
This command should only be used from a remote master when controlling this instrument over a
TSP-Link
®
.
Example 1
node[2].execute(sourcecode)
Runs script code on node 2. The code is in a
string variable called sourcecode.
Example 2
node[3].execute("x = 5")
Runs script code in string constant
("x = 5") to set x
equal to 5 on node 3.
Example 3
node[32].execute(TestDut.source)
Runs the test script stored in the variable
TestDut
(previously stored on the master node) on
node 32.

Details
This function retrieves the value of a global variable from the runtime environment of this node.
Do not use this command to retrieve the value of a global variable from the local node. Instead,
access the global variable directly. This command should only be used from a remote master when
controlling this instrument over a TSP-Link network.
Example
print(node[5].getglobal("test_val"))
Retrieves and outputs the value of the global variable named test_val from node 5.
