WHY write it yourself when you don't have to?

 

YOU DON'T NEED to employ COSTLY consultants

YOU DON'T NEED to know the INTRICACIES of SCPI

YOU JUST NEED A ROBUST SCPI PARSER.

  

In the current market, creating the ultimate programmable instrument is not enough to maximize your sales. Customers, in order to keep their own costs down, demand equipment that supports the industry-standard control language.

SCPI (Standard Commands for Programmable Instrumentation) is by far the industry standard today, used by Agilent, Fluke, Tektronix, and many others.

By using JPA-SCPI Parser, your instrument can interpret SCPI commands with ease! Its easy-to-use access functions and full documentation mean that your instrument can be "talking SCPI today!"
