@maria.sebu Thanks for sharing your application requirements. We do provide the ability to perform software functions via a Python script using our Automation API (documentation linked below). As an example, this would allow you to programatically start captures, save captures, and repeat that process in a loop. [https://saleae.github.io/logic2-automation/getting\_started.html](https://saleae.github.io/logic2-automation/getting_started.html) Unfortunately, however, we don’t currently support running Logic 2 in headless mode, but it is possible to run Logic 2 in headless Linux environments using XVFB. Apologies this isn’t supported on Windows at this time. There are currently a handful of other requests we are keeping an eye on with regards to headless support. That discussion is in the forum post below: > [@Saleae Logic 2 Automation API](https://discuss.saleae.com/t/saleae-logic-2-automation-api/1685/10): > > We’ve just published the first pre-release version of the automation API, included in the Logic 2.3.56 update! You can now test the first beta release of the new Logic 2 automation interface! First, update to the latest software release, 2.3.56. Then, follow the getting started guide here: [Getting Started — Saleae 0.0.1 documentation](https://saleae.github.io/logic2-automation/getting_started.html) Please post your feedback, questions, and requests here! We’re going to continue working on this for the next few weeks to improve reliability, improve the API,… I’ll share your request with the team here internally as well. --- _[View the full topic](https://discuss.saleae.com/t/logic2-headless-start/2360)._
