Data points are returned in <definite length arbitrary block> format.
A data point consists of two to ten comma-separated, NRf format
number pairs.
Valid profile names: CORR1, CORR2, . . . CORR9
Valid data is stored in non-volatile memory. Any error in a data block
causes all data in that block to be ignored and the data currently in
the named profile to be retained.
Data must be input in the form of two to ten comma-separated,
NRf-format number pairs.
The data-point number pairs in the named profile are automatically
sorted by frequency value before the profile is stored.
When power correction is in use, the Counter uses the data points in
the currently selected profile to determine the amount of loss
correction to apply.
If the measured frequency is between two defined data points, the
Counter uses the two defined data points to linearly interpolate the
appropriate correction value.
If the measured frequency is above the highest frequency value in the
profile (or below the lowest frequency value), the Counter determines
a loss-correction value by using the two highest (or lowest) defined
data points to extrapolate a linear extension to the curve above the
highest data point (or below the lowest data point).
