If you want to know if a piece of equipment physically exists, perform an ID query from the controller and match the response it receives from the piece of equipment addressed.  Current standards would have you query the device with

"*IDN?\n"

However, many of the older devices will not respond to that and require the older query of 

"ID?\n"

This will help ensure that the equipment you expect to communicate with is actually there.
