Introduction
In addition to the front panel interface, the XG can be remotely controlled
through the various remote interfaces. The XG implements the SCPI
standard as its command line interface for remotely controlling the power
supply. Additionally, a small subset of legacy Xantrex commands has
been provided for ease of use and backwards compatibility. All of the
remote interfaces use the same command line interface.
This chapter is divided into two parts:
Hardware and Connection Setup provides information on how to
setup a connection to the different remote interfaces available on the
XG. The remote interfaces covered include RS-232, RS-485, USB,
GPIB and ENET.
Command Line Interface and SCPI explains how to send commands
to the power supply using the SCPI commands and the theory behind
SCPI.
