       -a, --address <ip>
              IP address of LXI device

       -t, --timeout <seconds>
              Timeout in seconds

       -p, --plugin <name>
              Use screenshot plugin by name

              Use raw/TCP protocol

EXAMPLES

       Search for LXI instruments:

              lxi discover

       Search for LXI instruments using mDNS/DNS-SD:

              lxi discover --mdns

       Send SCPI command:

              lxi scpi --address 10.0.0.42 "*IDN?"

       Send SCPI command and dump response to file:

              lxi scpi --address 10.0.0.42 "*IDN?" > response.txt

       Capture screenshot from a Rigol 1000Z series oscilloscope:

              lxi screenshot --address 10.0.0.42 --plugin rigol-1000z

              Or by using screenshot plugin autodetection simply:

              lxi screenshot --address 10.0.0.42

       Note:  Some LXI devices are slow to process SCPI commands, in which case you might need to
       take care to increase the timeout value.
