Whitepaper: SCPI in Python

Nowadays, there are a lot of possibilities to control measuring instruments remotely or to query values. A very common and easy to learn variant is SCPI (Standard Commands for Programmable Instruments). This whitepaper explains the basic definition of SCPI over TCP/IP and how to send commands via SCPI using the Python programming language.

Furthermore, a small example shows how easy it is to implement a SCPI communication with DEWETRON’s measuring instruments in Python to perform the desired measuring tasks and to query or save the results.
