After power-up the control mode will be set to 'Analog input' or 'BUS/RS232', depending on the customer's default setting for
analog or digital operation. Except when the actual control mode setting is other than 0, 1, 9 or 18 the actual control mode setting
is maintained. For more information see parameter 'IOStatus', section 4.2.2.

The 'Fluid number' is a pointer to the set of calbration parameters. Each selectable fluid has its own set of calibration parameter
values. Parameter value 0 = fluid 1 and parameter value 7 = fluid 8. Up to eight fluids can be stored in an instrument. Default value
= 0 (fluid 1).
