Subject: Agilent LXI via Ethernet + Asyn + StreamDevice?

Epicureans:

A request to control an Agilent model 33210A Function Generator has come to our attention. The instrument is or can be equipped with an ethernet interface using the LXI standard interface. Has anyone used such an interface, especially with Asyn/StreamDevice? Is it as simple as making a TCP connection and sending GPIB-like commands and reading a stream of data from the device? I have looked at the LXI standard online, but it seems to be written in a different revision of English than the one I am compatible with. A document on the Agilent web site suggests that it uses port 5025 in a telnet-like way to send and receive SCPI strings. If it is that simple, life will be good, here.

Thanks.
