VIRTUAL INSTRUMENT OR MEASURING SYSTEM?

W. Winiecki
  • Abstract:
    The paper relates to the description of Virtual Instrument (VI). A new conceptual model of a virtual instrument is proposed. The model describes not only measuring devices, but also devices that can generate signals both analogue and digital. A compatibility between this model and a model of SCPI devices is shown. A new proposition for description of measurement equipment is also proposed. It makes more clear the classification of measurement equipment and enables one to differ a virtual instrument from a measuring system with a graphic user interface.
