DAC121S101-SEP: Cannot Launch Script Window

Part Number: DAC121S101-SEP

When attempting to launch the script window in the GUI software I receive Error 5000 where the Notifier Timed Out. Is there a way to get around this.

 

Once done I'm attempting to alter the code to step through 20 data inputs in one sweep. Is this possible? If so could you provide example.

  • Hi Johnathon,

    Unfortunately, the script functionality does not work and it should have been removed from the GUI.

    We don't have many options for running a sweep. One way you can perform this function is to use the "Open Configuration" functionality. This takes values from a text file and writes them in order. I've attached an example config of a code sweep.

     example.cfg

    If you need to have more control over write timing, you will have to develop your own scripting tool.

    Thanks,
    Erin

  • Could you please copy paste the text of the example file in a reply. I am getting a 403 Forbidden screen every time I try to open it.

  • Hi Johnathon,

    That is extremely annoying! Here's the contents of the text file:

    DAC121S101-SEP|Input_Shift_Register 0000
    DAC121S101-SEP|Input_Shift_Register 0100
    DAC121S101-SEP|Input_Shift_Register 0200
    DAC121S101-SEP|Input_Shift_Register 0300
    DAC121S101-SEP|Input_Shift_Register 0400
    DAC121S101-SEP|Input_Shift_Register 0500
    DAC121S101-SEP|Input_Shift_Register 0600
    DAC121S101-SEP|Input_Shift_Register 0700
    DAC121S101-SEP|Input_Shift_Register 0800
    DAC121S101-SEP|Input_Shift_Register 0900
    DAC121S101-SEP|Input_Shift_Register 0A00
    DAC121S101-SEP|Input_Shift_Register 0B00
    DAC121S101-SEP|Input_Shift_Register 0C00
    DAC121S101-SEP|Input_Shift_Register 0D00
    DAC121S101-SEP|Input_Shift_Register 0E00
    DAC121S101-SEP|Input_Shift_Register 0F00

    Put these lines into your own TXT file and use the "Open Configuration" command in the GUI. The GUI will then iterate through each command and update the DAC sequentially.

    Thanks,
    Erin
