IEEE-STD-488.2
Common
Commands and
Queries
Since most instruments and devices in an ATE system use similar commands,
which perform similar functions, the IEEE-STD-488.2 document has specified
a common set of commands and queries, which all compatible devices must
use. This avoids situations where devices from various manufacturers use
different sets of commands to enable functions and report status. The IEEE-
STD-488.2 treats common commands and queries as device dependent
commands. For example, *TRG is sent over the bus to trigger the instrument.
