UTOMATION
In addition to supporting the familiar ASCII-based GPIB remote commands, the
WaveSurfer MXs-B oscilloscope instruments fully-support control by Automation
interfaces based on Microsoft’s Component Object Model (COM).
Using COM, the controlling application runs directly on the instrument. There’s no
need for an external controller.
The controlling application can also be run using Microsoft’s distributed COM
standard (DCOM) on a networked computer.

Standards
Automation is a Microsoft technology, formerly referred to as OLE Automation,
primarily used to enable cross-application macro programming. It is based upon
the Component Object Model (COM).
An application exposing Automation Objects is referred to as an Automation
Server. Automation Objects expose Automation Interfaces to the controlling
Automation Client. This manual describes these Automation objects and interfaces
in detail.
It is important to note that Automation itself is not software language dependent.
Meaning, it can be used from any programming language supporting COM.
LeCroy’s usage concentrates mainly on the use of Automation from the Visual
Basic Script (VBScript) language. This is largely because it is easy to use, it is the
language the WaveSurfer MXs-B oscilloscope uses for setup files, and the VBScript
interpreter is installed by default on all WaveSurfer MXs-B instruments. So, this is
all available without having to purchase any additional software.

ECOVERY
Your WaveSurfer MXs-B series oscilloscope was designed to operate very reliably
for many years. However, the application software that operates the instrument
runs on a Windows platform. The loading or incomplete removal of additional
Windows applications may eventually cause problems in the stability of the
operating system. In severe cases, it may be necessary to reload the base
operating system and oscilloscope application. This can be done by using a
recovery routine to restore a clean copy of the image originally installed on the C:
drive. Any user or calibration data located on the D: partition is not be affected by
the recovery process.
