scriptVar.autorun
This attribute controls the autorun state of a script.
Usage
scriptVar.autorun = "state"
state = scriptVar.autorun
The name of the variable that references the script
String that indicates whether or not the script runs automatically when powered on:
â–ª yes: Script runs automatically
â–ª no: Script does not run automatically
Details
Autorun scripts run automatically when the instrument is turned on. You can set any number of scripts
to autorun.
The run order for autorun scripts is arbitrary, so make sure the run order is not important.
The default value for scriptVar.autorun depends on how the script was loaded. The default is no
if the script was loaded with loadscript or script.new(). It is yes for scripts loaded with
loadandrunscript or script.newautorun().
Make sure to save the script in nonvolatile memory after setting the autorun attribute so that the
instrument keeps the setting.
Example
test5.autorun = "yes"
test5.save()
Assume a script named test5 is in the run-time environment.
The next time the instrument is turned on, test5 script
automatically loads and runs.
