    NOTE (on using the N1/N2 numeric modes): Once a mode is selected, it is effective for both devices. N1 mode is backward compatible for the older model ETS-Lindgren controllers, 1050, 1060, and 1090. This mode causes the GPIB to respond to queries with only a 3 digit value which was the maximum resolution of the older controllers.
