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:

– Opening projects, executing tests and

saving results

– Executing tests repeatedly while

changing configurations

– Sending commands to external

instruments

– Executing tests out of ord

Combine the power of built-in automation

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.

– Export data generated by your tests

and post-process it using your favorite

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.
