7.4.3 VISA Libraries
VISA is a standardized software interface library providing input and output functions to
communicate with instruments. The I/O channel (LAN or TCP/IP, USB, ...) is selected
at initialization time by one of the following:
●
The channel–specific address string ("VISA resource string") indicated in Table 7-2
●
An appropriately defined VISA alias (short name).
A VISA installation is a prerequisite for remote control using the following interfaces:
●
Chapter 7.4.1.2, "GPIB Interface (IEC 625/IEEE 418 Bus Interface)" , on page 157
●
Chapter 7.4.1.1, "LAN Interface" , on page 152
