Object-Specific Functions

Object-specific functions apply only to instrument objects of a given type (GPIB, VISA-VXI, and so on). For example, the serialbreak function is supported only for serial port objects. The object-specific functions are organized into the following categories based on instrument object type.

GPIB Functions

GPIB Functions
clrdevice	Clear instrument buffer
gpib	Create a GPIB object
spoll	Perform a serial poll
trigger	Send a trigger message to the instrument

VISA-GPIB Functions

VISA-GPIB Functions
clrdevice	Clear instrument buffer
trigger	Send a trigger message to the instrument
visa	Create a VISA object

VISA-VXI Functions

VISA-VXI Functions
clrdevice	Clear instrument buffer
memmap	Map memory for low-level memory read and write operations
mempeek	Low-level memory read from VXI register
mempoke	Low-level memory write to VXI register
memread	High-level memory read from VXI register
memunmap	Unmap memory for low-level memory read and write operations
