To Insert a Basic Script as a Command

The Insert | Basic Script menu option displays the Insert Basic Script dialog box.

You can use this dialog box to add a basic script object to the measurement routine. Basic script objects contain the name of the basic script that should be executed when the basic script object is executed. Execution of the measurement routine does not continue until the basic script has executed. If the basic script creates any objects while executing, those objects will be inserted into the measurement routine and executed.

Objects inserted by Basic Scripts are highlighted in a different color than other objects to indicate that the basic script created them. For more information on basic scripts, see the PC-DMIS BASIC documentation.
