3 Interfaces
The SCPI command set can be used with the following interfaces:
•
USB (Virtual Serial Port)
•
RS-232
•
Ethernet (TCP/IP)
•
GPIB (IEEE-488.2)
The following table shows which interfaces are available for each device type. The firmware name is possibility to distinguish
between different devices from the control computer side. The firmware name can be queried with the command

Table 3: Overview of available interfaces
A concrete description of the different interfaces follows in the next sections.
Many devices have more interfaces, which are not covered by this document. For example, the CAN interface with EDCP / DCP
command list is described in the manual
CAN_EDCP_Programmers-Guide.pdf
.
There are ready made applications to use the SCPI command set without programming, such as iseg Terminal (

),
iseg SCPI Control (
1
1
. These allow to control the devices with its HV channels more convenient
and without programming an own application.
