SPD3303X-E SCPI Interface issues
HendriXML:
If done quite a lot scpi stuff with a SDS1104X-E scope. I think I might have used 90% of the commands (just a guess) without real issues.
When it came down to reading the waveform this:
WaveAce 1000/2000 Remote Control Command Reference
document was very useful.
I've used my own tool/scripts and NI Visa stuff version 20.
Older version of the library:
https://github.com/HendriXML/XMLScripts-Common-VISA/blob/master/VISA%20Siglent%20Scopes.xml
I'm not familiar with LabVIEW but nice things can be done with the mentioned scope using scpi..
The powersupply I'm less enthusiastic about in this regard.. But maybe if the mentioned problems are solved, the level may rise.
C.J.S.:

Looking the specifications, SCPI commands must be terminated with NL (line-feed), but clearly at least "OUTPut" command is broken since if command is terminated with NL, unit gives error... At current state SPD3303X-E (and probably SPD3303X ?) don't live up to advertised specifications ("supports SCPI")...

FYI, earlier this year FW 1.01.01.02.07R2 was released for SPD3303X and SPD3303X-E, and in my experience SCPI support in this latest FW version is much improved compared to FW 1.01.01.02.05. I say this because when I use HKJ's "Test Controller" program to send SCPI commands to my SPD3303X-E with FW 1.01.01.02.07R2, the PSU responds correctly, while with FW 1.01.01.02.05 the PSU does not respond and gives an error beep on many SCPI commands.
For example when I send command "OUTP CH1,ON" to SPD3303X-E with FW 1.01.01.02.07R2, channel 1 is turned ON, while with FW 1.01.01.02.05 the channel stays OFF and the PSU gives an error beep.

FYI, a few days ago I managed to make a working device definition for control of SPD3303X and SPD3303X-E from HKJ's "Test Controller" program. This definition file is working well in combination with FW 1.01.01.02.07R2, but does not work with FW 1.01.01.02.05 or earlier. The definition file can be downloaded from this post.

Hi, I tested those commands using putty telnet on IP address and port 5025.
They do work.
