busSCRIPT allows you to build up a sequence of Command Descriptor Blocks that you can send to one or more storage devices. You can use busSCRIPT to test and debug your script. Once your script is finished, you can choose to create an executable script that you can share with others to run on their computers.

When you are ready to create an executable script, click on the Create Executable Script toolbar button from the main user interface.

You will then be shown a standard Save As dialog box. The executable script is saved, by default, in a ZIP file. The user you send the executable script simply needs to unzip the files onto their computer and run the BSClient.exe executable file.

Creating executable scripts has a variety of uses. One of the main benefits is the ability to retrieve information from a system that is not readily available to you. For example:

• You create an executable script that enumerates device / media information from a target computer
• You e-mail the executable script to a target user
• Target user runs the script and saves its results to a busTRACE capture file
• Target user e-mails you the busTRACE capture file
• You load up the capture file into busTRACE 10.0 for detailed analysis

By bringing in the capture file into busTRACE, you are able to see exactly how the customer's target system responded to your script.

OS Compatibility

Please note that executable scripts are only compatible with Windows 7 and above (x86 and x64 platforms).
