What’s New in Keysight TestExec SL 7.1?

The multithreading capability allows you

to begin executing multiple test

statements simultaneously without

having to wait for a statement that is

executing to complete its operation.

The new feature helps to increase

execution throughput by reducing

unnecessary idle time.

This feature enables you to send a

channel list to switch one instrument.

You can now switch a collection of

switches to a given set of positions.

In instruments that support sending

multiple commands in a single

transaction, this has the potential to

signiicantly speed up switching time by

reducing the total number of

transactions required to switch.

The IVI-COM action feature enables you

to create actions by using the IVI-COM

assembly “hwhIVI.dll”.

With this capability, the user does not

need to write any programming codes

and the action can be created with a few

mouse clicks.

Key Features

#1 Multithreading

#2 State-based Switching

#3 IVI-COM Action
