Examples using the gotmc ivi package, which proides a Go-based implementation of the Interchangeable Virtual Instrument (IVI) standard.

Overview

The IVI Specifications developed by the IVI Foundation provide standardized APIs for programming test instruments. The ivi package is a partial, Go-based implementation of the IVI Specifications, which are specified for C, COM, and .NET.

The main advantage of the ivi package is not having to learn the SCPI commands for each individual piece of test equipment. For instance, by using the ivi package both the Agilent 33220A and the Stanford Research Systems DS345 function generators can be programmed using one standard API. The only requirement for this is having an IVI driver for the desired test equipment.
