General Programming Aspects
The GP-IB Interface Bus
The GP-IB Interface Bus
The General Purpose Interface Bus is the interface used for
communication between a controller and an external device, such as the
Agilent 81130A. The GPIB conforms to IEEE standard 488-1987, ANSI
standard MC 1.1, and IEC recommendation 625-1.
If you are not familiar with the GPIB, please refer to the following books:
• The Institute of Electrical and Electronic Engineers: IEEE Standard
488.1-1987, IEEE Standard Digital Interface for Programmable
Instrumentation.
• The Institute of Electrical and Electronic Engineers: IEEE Standard
488.2-1987, IEEE Standard Codes, Formats, and Common Commands
for Use with IEEE Standard 488.1-1987.
In addition, the commands not from the IEEE 488.2 standard are defined
according to the Standard Commands for Programmable Instruments
(SCPI). For an introduction to SCPI and SCPI programming techniques,
refer to the following document:
• The SCPI Consortium: Standard Commands for Programmable
Instruments, published periodically by various publishers. To obtain a
