These commands conform to the minimal 488.2 requirements. Many of these 488.2
commands have limited meaning in the VXI environment, but are included for compatibility.
The GPIB-VXI/C has no reason to interrupt as a 488.2 instrument. It is only a parser.
All other functions of the GPIB-VXI/C are considered to be interface functions for other
488.2 VXI devices. It is the responsibility of each VXI device connected via the GPIB to
the GPIB-VXI/C to implement 488.2 protocols if individual device 488.2 compatibility is
required.
