Output Window
The window provides an area for macros to write data. In addition, the window has the ability to echo .NET API 1) Access Preamble Indicator, or 2) Application Programming Interface commands while interacting with the 89600 VSA user interface.
Writing to the Output Window
To write text to the window, write to System.Diagnostics.Trace. The window will echo any text written to the System.Diagnostics.Trace.
Example C# syntax: System.Diagnostics.Trace.WriteLine("Text to print in the Output window");
The window can only be written to from a Macro. Writing to the window from an external process is not supported.
Enable Code Output
The window can echo 89600 VSA .NET API commands that correspond to changes in VSA parameters. To enable this output, select the checkbox in the window. Then, when a setting through the user interface is changed, the command to do the same thing will be shown in the window.
Set the command language using the dropdown in the Macros dialog box.
