Commands are separated into two types: IEEE 488.2 Common Commands
and SCPI Commands.
The IEEE 488.2 standard defines the Common Commands that perform
functions like reset, self-test, status byte query, etc. Common Commands
are four or five characters in length, always begin with the asterisk character
(*), and may include one or more parameters. The command keyword is
separated from the first parameter by a space character. Some examples of
Common Commands are shown below:
*RST
