Chapter 6 SCPI Communication Protocal
6.1 SCPI Communication Command Introduction
YI-55 series programmable DC power supply supports SCPI communication protocol.
SCPI communication protocol is a standard commands for programmable instruments, which defines
a standard set of communication commands.Command for YI-55 series power supply can be divided
into two categories: basic commands (IEEE-488.2 Common Command Set) and command specified
by YI-55 series power supply.
SCPI command is ordered arrangements of tree constructs. Each command contains a number of
strings (mnemonic) . Layers separated by a colon (:). At the top of the command in the command tree
known as the "root shell" or simply "root." Access to the next command, you must specify a path.
Ordered tree is structured as follows:
In the above table: AA represents the root path; BB, CC, DD represents the direct sub-path of root
path AA. EE, FF, GG said that the path is a sub-sub-path under the BB. HH, JJ said that the path is a
sub-sub-path under DD.
Command description:
1) [:] AA: CC means the current root path for the AA, visit the CC under the AA.
2) [:] AA: BB: FF means the current root path for the AA, visit the FF of the sub-path BB under
the AA.
3) [:] AA: DD: HH means the current root path for the AA, visit the HH of the sub-path DD under
the AA.
This command can send more than one order in a message and use a semicolon (;) between
each order.
Example:
[:]AA:BB:EE;FF;GG means access to the EE, FF, GG under the BB.
[:]AA:BB:FF;:AA:DD:HH means access to FF under the BB and HH under the DD.
SCPI language mnemonic (keywords) has two farmat: long format and short format. Short format is
actually short for long format. It uses the following rules:
Short format mnemonic is the first four characters of long format mnemonic. If the length of the
long-form mnemonic characters less than or equal to 4, then the long mnemonic is the same as
30
YO IE ENTERPRISE CORP., LTD
short format mnemonic.
If the length is greater than the length of 4 mnemonic, and the fourth character is a vowel, short
mnemonic will discard the fourth vowel character and become three characters.
Example:
Short-type mnemonic of ERRor is ERR, rather than the ERRO.
Some command needs parameters, for example, setting value command. There is a space (ASCII
code is 32) between the command and the first parameter.
Example:
Setup voltage value command [:] VOLT 12.000
There is a space (ASCII code is 32) between 12.00 and VOLT.
SCPI is case-insensitive, namely commands are not case sensitive and each command has an EOI
end: Instruction end <LF> (that ASCII code character '\n', that is, line breaks decimal ASCII code 10,
hex 0x0A).
Note: All of the following commands to send back all require add <LF>. The following statement
appears in [ ] represents the characters can be written in commands, or you can not write.
