Programmable Instrumentation. New York, NY, 1987.
This standard denes the technical details required to design and
build an GPIB interface (IEEE 488.1). This standard contains
electrical sp ecications and information on proto col that is b eyond
the needs of most programmers. However, it can be useful to clarify
formal denitions of certain terms used in related documents.

This do cument describes the underlying message formats and data
types used in SCPI. It is intended more for instrument rmware
engineers than for instrument user/programmers. However, you may
nd it useful if you need to know the precise denition of certain
message formats, data types, or common commands.
