3.3.9 Scripting Tab

#SNLU2235438 shows the Scripting tab. The script window provides a full Python scripting environment which can be for running scripts and interacting with the device in an interactive or automated fashion. Commands may be written directly into the Scripting tab or may be run from a .py file using the "Run" button. Example scripts may be found using the "Run PreDef Script" button.

It is also possible to create custom buttons on the Scripting tab to run a desired script. To do so, click on the "Setup" button, then say "Add", and select the desired name and script. To make the button appear in future instances of ALP, click the "Set As Default" button.

Directly interacting with devices either through register modifications or calling device support library functions can effect the performance and/or functionality of the user interface and may even crash the ALP Framework application.
