Control over SICL-LAN server

In a control system using the SICL-LAN server, communication between the
external controller (client) and the E4981A (server) is performed using the
SICL-LAN protocol. Communication is performed using SICL (Standard
Instrument Control Library). You can control the E4981A by programming using
SICL or VISA in C language in a UNIX environment, or Visual C++, Visual Basic,
or VEE in a Windows environment.
In E4981A, SICL-LAN (VXI-11) value cannot be set to OFF.
