iii) NRf

This is a decimal numeric data type, where

NR1 indicates an integer number,

NR2 indicates a fixed point real number, and

NR3 indicates a floating point real number.

iv) Numeric value program data

This data type defines numeric values, as well as special

cases of Character Data. Numeric values may be

specified in any of Integer, Fixed Point or Floating Point

format. All parameters which have associated units accept

a suffix, which may be specified using upper or lower-case

characters. When the suffix is not specified, the numeric

value is accepted in the default units, which are Hertz for

frequency, Seconds for time, and Volts for voltage. To set

the frequency to 1KHz we can send one of the following

commands:

FREQ 1000

FREQ 1E3

The special forms of character data accepted as

numbers are

MAXimum: sets the parameter to its maximum

value.

MINimum: sets the parameter to its minimum

value.
