Making_a_measurement_point_execute_a_script_before_taking_a_trace |
Spectrum measurement points are often configured to set one or more parameters before taking a trace. However, they can also be configured to execute an entire Automation script before taking a trace.
Warning
Measurement points that execute Automation scripts should only be used in spectrum monitors. It is not recommended to request traces from such measurement points in a real-time spectrum display as this could cause performance issues.
-
On a spectrum analyzer card, go to the Measurement points menu and select Edit measurement point.
-
In the left pane of the Edit measurement point window, select the measurement point.
-
In the Setup section, select Set up your measurement point via an Automation script.
-
Click <empty>, and select an Automation script in the drop-down list.
-
In the boxes below the script name, fill in the necessary dummies and parameters for the script.
-
If necessary, select additional options for the way the Automation script is run. For more information on these options, see Script execution options.
