4.1.1. Example Resource Descriptors
Examples of resource descriptors are:
•
GPIB0::20::INSTR
The instrument at address 20 on GPIB interface card 0.
•
ASRL1::INSTR
The instrument connected to serial port 1.
•
TCPIP::10.100.1.49::7145::SOCKET
The instrument at the indicated IP addresses listening in on
port 7145.
4.1.2. GUI and Commands Line Level of Control
At the GUI and command line levels, there are several ways to
control the instrument. One of the most popular is HyperTerminal
from Hilgraeve. (typically embedded in Windows XP). It works with
serial as long as the user appends the linefeeds.
Most operating systems include some form of Telnet. It also works
as long as the user changes the port from Telnet's default 23 to
one of the CPU’s available ports. See Section 8.1.1.1. for more
information on available ports.
