the probe connected to the input of the DA1855A. Only probes which
support probe code sensing will be correctly reported. Attenuation values of
1, 10, 100 or 1000 are sensed and can be reported. Probes which do not
support probe code sensing will be reported having an attenuation of 1.
Query Syntax :PATTeNuation?
Response Format :PATTN :={PR1, PR2,
