Hey all

Yes - I have build a minimal gpib stack setup.

Say I want to talk to my tek. scope at gpib address 15
I call a small program called tek
***@malab01:~#tek 15 "*IDN?"
TEKTRONIX,TDS 784C,0,CF:91.1CT FV:v5.3e
***@malab01:~#

This way I easyly can script gpib commands ot my instrument park from eg
perl or what ever

#!/usr/bin/perl

`sup2 "VOLT 1.2"`;
$volt = `dmm1 "MEAS:VOLT?" `;
...

sup2 and dmm1 are commandline interface to my usb connected dead cheep
usb connected supply and mulitimeters and are addresed by the usb bus
system.
That could be done more elegant - when times comes.

I any one is interested let me know and I write a more into deep
desciption.

Regard Jørgen

Hello Jørgen,

thanks for reply !

I need to find out gpib command set for a more or less unusual and old
device. Anuy of the known GPIB commands not recognized by this device.
I only have some hints and ideas and need a simple terminal to send
ASCII commands and autoreceive resultbuffer.
Not sure your projects fits this needs.
So far i did with ibtest but its annoying always get usage and other standard
stuff outputs during work.

You could use a python ( or better an ipython) terminal together with the python bindings.

Its pretty easy.
