Scripting Module

When speed and precise timing matter, measurement routines just can’t be fast enough. With a time-deterministic approach and 50 us time interval between commands, scripting significantly boosts execution speed and reduces measurement time. The module is seamlessly integrated in standard measurement modules: Scripts can be easily called from other modules, and custom functions or pre-defined measurement can be started from within a script. The scripting module is not intended as a replacement of the Nanonis Programming Interface, but as complementary module: It allows 100x faster execution speed while the Programming Interface offers more flexibility.

• Fast and precise: Up to 20’000 commands/s executed on a real-time system
• Seamless integration with standard modules and programming interface
• for-loops for repeated measurement loops
• if-commands for conditional execution and real-time feedback
• Data acquisition options for customized measurements

• Custom bias switching sequence
• Multiple FOR loops within a FOR loop
• Deterministic time per pulse 10 ms, down to 50 us
• Integrated fast data acquisition
