6.9 LXI Configuration
LAN eXtensions for Instrumentation (LXI) is an instrumentation platform for measuring
instruments and test systems that is based on standard Ethernet technology. LXI is
intended to be the LAN-based successor to GPIB, combining the advantages of Ethernet
with the simplicity and familiarity of GPIB.
6.9.1 LXI Classes and LXI Functionality
LXI-compliant instruments are divided into three classes, A, B and C, with the functionality
of the classes hierarchically based one upon the other:
