In the small market of precision measuring instruments there is no standardization of the communication protocols used for control and instrument configuration. Each manufacturer defines their own syntax and set of commands for each instrument. Due to this particular problem it is necessary to create a communication protocol that uses a common syntax and a set of common commands in addition to the specific commands of these instruments. Such protocol is the OGC ® PUCK Protocol Standard that can be implemented in any measuring instrument or apparatus. This new protocol works through RS232 serial communication, most common for measuring instruments, but also for Ethernet communication (TCP-IP).
