IEEE-488, also known as GPIB or HP-IB, comprises a set of standards which allows various test and measurement gear to be controlled and queried remotely.
The following standards are involved:
- IEEE-488.1 mechanical, electrical and basic protocol
- IEEE-488.2 formats and common commands
- SCPI standard commands, built on top of IEEE-488.2
While IEEE-488.1 defines the "Centronix-style" parallel connector, the other standards are in fact seen over other types of connections: RS-232, IEC-style parallel connectors, and so on.
Sigrok aims to support all of this: all of the command sets, on any device supporting them, across any interface.

| Prologix GPIB-Ethernet | not yet supported | Hardware needed |
Command sets
| Command set | Status | Comments |
