10.3 Creating Scripts From the Master Log

The Master Log Browser allows the user to review commands entered during this session and use them to create a script file for future use.

To create a script file, click the Enable Script checkbox. All filters are disabled automatically, except for the USB TX option and the Create Script button enables. Select the desired commands to be saved in the script file and then click the Create Script button. A dialog allows the location and name of the script file to be selected or entered.

The script is saved with a default script name of "log_save_<data/time>" in the user directory. The name of the script and description can be edited using the Script Editor. If the script was saved outside the 'user' directory, the script must be imported before the script is recognized. If the script was saved to the default location, the script is recognized.
