Once the dwell time set for a step in the list expires, the next step is entered (if available, if not,
execution stops and the output remains at the final values set in the last step of the list.)
Note that while there are parameters for both voltage and frequency level and slew rates, there is
only one dwell time, which applies to each step in the transient list.
Front panel entry only supports the LIST mode of operation. For Pulse and Triggered modes, the
remote control interface must be used.
When entering transient lists, each list must be entered sequentially starting with step #0. If a list
point is not yet set, the step number cannot be increased past it.
The following sample illustrates the use of transient system to program controlled output
changes.

This output can be accomplished using the following transient list.
