Introduction To 3500 Lua Scripting

By Adam Pierson

With the addition of Lua, the Aeroflex 3500 Series test set has a full-featured scripting language capable of automated testing. The additions to the Lua syntax incorporated by Aeroflex allow for remote commands to be used in Lua scripts. This open scripting language allows 3500 users to create their own test scripts that perform many tasks including taking measurements, prompting the user, taking in user input, saving settings, and saving test results.
