While working on the implentation of scpi control, it became clear there are substantial differences between available implementations. My initial thought was to use the FS740 from SRS as inspiration as this also contains both a multi channel timer counter and a gpsdo, but the FS740 is not very new, it may be a wrong choice. While basic MEASURE, CONFIG and READ commands seem to be fairly common, a clear difference with , for instance, Siglent counters is how the channel selection is done. Does anyone have a recommendation on what scpi command set to use as inspiration to provide largest communality and easy learning and usage? Erik

Hi Erik, I think the Agilent/Keysight counters are understood by most automation programs like LabView or Keysight VEE.
