Manage scripts
This section describes how to create scripts by sending commands over the remote interface and
using TSB Embedded.
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
instrument's web interface. TSB and TSB Embedded are described below.
• Test Script Builder (TSB) software: TSB software is a programming tool that you can download
from the Product Support web page (https://www.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 10-35).
• TSB Embedded: 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.
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 run-time 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.
Anonymous scripts
If a script is created with the loadscript or loadandrunscript command with no name defined,
it is called the anonymous script. There can only be one anonymous script in the run-time
environment. If another anonymous script is loaded into the run-time environment, it replaces the
existing anonymous script.
