Interface-Based Instrument Communication
Low-level protocols such as TCP/IP, UDP, I2C, SPI, Serial Port, GPIB, and
VISA
With interface-based instrument communication, there are common steps that comprise the basic workflow. You create an object of the interface type you are using, and connect to the instrument. Setting properties is optional, but common. You read and write data, and disconnect and clean up. For an outline of the basic steps, see Interface-Based Communication.
