GENERAL
Kepco MAT Power Supplies are programmed over a control bus using either SCPI (Standard
Commands for Programmable Instruments) or CIIL (Control Interface Intermediate Language)
commands. SCPI and CIIL provide a common language conforming to IEEE488.2 for instru-
ments used in an automatic test system. The control bus can be either the IEEE 488 standard
communication bus (General Purpose Interface Bus, GPIB), or the RS232C communication
bus.
