Commands for
Programmable
Instruments(SCPI)
Standard Commands for Programmable Instrument(
scpi
) is the
new universal command set adopted by Hewlett-Packard for test
and measurement instrumentation by extending IEEE 488.2-1987.
(SCPI is equal to TMSL, Test and Measurement Systems Language,
which developed by Hewlett-Packard.) This language uses standard
HP-IB hardware and will b e used in many future Hewlett-Packard
Pro ducts. SCPI uses easy to learn, self explanatory commands, and
is exible for b oth beginners and exp ert programmers. Detailed SCPI
command descriptions are given in Chapter 8.
