Starting SCPI server via Console Runner
Starting the server
The SCPI console runner is a console application providing a SCPI server instance. The runner connects to a Bode device attached to the PC running the console runner. It accepts incoming SCPI commands and provides an interface to control the Bode device over SCPI.
You can find the executable OmicronLab.VectorNetworkAnalysis.ScpiRunner.exe in your installation directory.
The runner can be started by double-clicking the executable. In this case the default parameters are being used and will be displayed on the console.
When starting the executable via commandline, additional parameters can be used to configure the server. To do so:
- navigate to the installation directory containing the
OmicronLab.VectorNetworkAnalysis.ScpiRunner.exe - click on
File->Open Windows PowerShell - type in the command
.\OmicronLab.VectorNetworkAnalysis.ScpiRunner.exe - the server should start
Options
The executable accepts 3 Options:
| Option | Parameter | Default |
|---|---|---|
-i |
IP address | all IP addresses of the PC |
-p |
Port | 5025 |
-s |
Serial-Number of Bode Device | first found device attached to PC |
An example for connecting to a device with the serialnumber CC164C on the IP address of 192.168.0.20 and port 5025 would be the command:
.\OmicronLab.VectorNetworkAnalysis.ScpiRunner.exe -i 192.168.0.20 -p 5025 -s CC164C.
