Pulsar QRM

The Pulsar QRM driver is separated into three layers:

QCoDeS driver: Instrument driver based on QCoDeS and the instrument’s native interface.
Native interface: Instrument API that provides control over the instrument and is an extension of the the SCPI interface.
SCPI interface: Instrument API based on the SCPI standard which in turn is based on IEEE488.2.
