GpibCmd
A command-string to be sent to an instrument on the GPIB bus.
- Input Format:
- A string of up to 80 characters.
- Context:
- Most expensive measuring instruments such as oscilloscopes and
power meters can be controlled and monitored under computer
control via a GPIB bus. To control an instrument one sends it
a command string. This can be done with the
gpib_send(),
which requires the command string to be sent as a
GpibCmd value.
