Node for GW Instek

General
1

Hello,

I'm trying to connect to a programmable DC Power Supply from GW Instek (PFR-100 Series).
It requires a socket server connection. For example: IP address: 172.25.13.100 port: 2268. The connection with other tools is established with the following: "TCPIPO::172.25.13.100::2268::SOCKET".
How can this be built in Node-Red?
Thanks for your help.

Looking at the programming manual, seems you send a command as ascii and get a result back.

In theory, add a TCP Reqeust node (set IP and Port accordingly) then inject a string of ":MEASure[:SCALar]:CURRent[:DC]?" should respond with the value e.g. +0.0000
