Thanks - Instrument drivers works just fine 

Here is reference for others 

using Instruments
   PXA = GenericInstrument()
   connect!(PXA,"GPIB0::18::INSTR")   # Connect to Instrument with name PXA
   write(PXA, "system:preset")  # Write to PXA instrument 
   acp = split((query(PXA, "read:ACP?")),",")  # read ACP from Inst
