Automatꢀon
You can completely automate execution
of your application’s tests and Add-
Ins from a separate PC using the
included N5452A Remote Interface
feature (download free toolkit from
www.keysight.com/find/scope-apps-
sw). You can even create and execute
automation scripts right inside the
application using a convenient built-in
client.
The commands required for each task
may be created using a command
wizard or from “remote hints”
accessible throughout the user
interface.
Using automation, you can accelerate
complex testing scenarios and even
automate manual tasks such as:
Fꢀgure 13. Remote Programmꢀng scrꢀpt ꢀn the Automatꢀon tab.
– Opening projects, executing tests
and saving results
– Executing tests repeatedly while
changing configurations
– Sending commands to external
instruments
– Executing tests out of order
Combine the power of built-in automa-
tion and extensibility to transform your
application into a complete test suite
executive:
– Interact with your device controller
to place it into desired states or test
modes before test execution.
– Configure additional instruments
used in your test suite such as a
pattern generator and probe switch
matrix.

ꢀnto a complete test suꢀte executꢀve.
– Export data generated by your tests
and post-process it using your favor-
ite environment, such as MATLAB,
Python, LabVIEW, C, C++, Visual
Basic etc.
– Sequence or repeat the tests and
“Add-In” custom steps execution in
any order for complete test coverage
of the test plan.
