A generic IEEE Std. 488.2 test suite
C. Bagge · 2002
A generic test suite for the IEEE Std. 488.2-1992 has been developed. The test suite makes it possible to perform an in-depth test of conformance to the standard. The paper starts by explaining the background for the work. This is followed by a presentation of the different phases of the work, and products from each of these phases. A major product, the test tool set, is presented in details with examples on how to configure the test suite for actual instruments and examples of actual test cases. A summary of the experience from using the test tool against actual instruments and information on the availability of the different products developed are presented.>
