The VSG60 does have SCPI support. It is through the VSG60 application. You would launch the app on the remote PC, then you would be able to use SCPI to control the app (socket interface, default port 5024). The app does have a generic ARB mode, it will load several types of custom I/Q waveform files such as binary, CSV, wav, and some others. The ARB mode can be fully controlled via SCPI, including loading files. With this approach, your waveforms would have to be stored in a file.
The API will only communicate with a locally connected device. To use this in the same fashion, you would have to build some sort of local application that controls the unit and awaits commands from your remote script. This might ultimately provide more flexibility at the cost of more upfront work.
You can find the VSG60 SCPI manual in our SDK, linked below.
