SCPI Talk 0.4

SCPI Talk is a lightweight utility for interacting with SCPI‑compatible test and measurement instruments. It gives you an interactive console to send commands, view responses, and quickly prototype sequences—ideal for validating setups, troubleshooting instruments, or learning SCPI without writing code.

Key features:

• Interactive command/response console for SCPI queries and controls
• Support for common connections, including LAN (TCP/IP) and serial (COM/USB); optional VISA drivers may be used for additional interfaces
• Configurable terminators, timeouts, and encoding to match your instrument
• Command history, favorites, and quick presets for frequently used queries (e.g., identification and status)
• Macro/sequence runner to automate repetitive tasks with delays
• Session logging with timestamps and export for documentation or analysis
• Device profiles to save connection settings and command sets
• Read-only mode to prevent accidental writes during diagnostics

SCPI Talk is designed for engineers, technicians, and educators who need a fast, reliable way to “talk SCPI” on the bench. A SCPI-capable instrument and a suitable connection (e.g., LAN or USB-to-serial) are required; certain interfaces may need vendor or VISA drivers.
