Version 1.4 Specification

The LXI Device Specification 2011 Version 1.4 provides optional extended functions that differentiate LXI from LAN based instrumentation. Previous versions of the standard included a Class model for LXI devices. With Version 1.4 of the LXI specification, this Class structure has been removed – instead a “Core” LXI Specification is defined and a set of five optional Extended Functions. Each extension has conformance requirements in addition to the base class. An LXI device can include one or all of the Extended Functions. The following documents provide details of the Specification Version 1.4 and its Extended Functions:
