>65,532, it will be set to 65,532. Alternatively, if the SGX is commanded to be set to a sweep point count
of 0 or 1, it will be set to 2. Some parameter limits, such as frequency are model dependent.

Basic Operation Information
The easiest way to generate a signal is by use of the OUTput:STATe command. Setting this to 1 or ON
turns on the output of the device at the currently displayed settings.
For finer control over the output parameters, individual configuration and function commands should
be used.

SCPI Command Reference
This section contains a list of all SCPI remote commands accepted by the SGX1000. The list is grouped by
SCPI subsystem or IEEE488.2 function and includes a detailed description of each command.
1.5.1
IEEE 488.2 Commands
The purpose of IEEE488.2 commands is to provide management and data communication instructions
for the system by defining a set of "*xxx" commands (an asterisk followed by a three-character code).
These commands allow device control and status monitoring and are the basis for some of the
commands of the SCPI STATus subsystem (see Section 5.5.17).
*IDN?
Description:
Return the instrument identification string. This string contains the manufacturer, model
number, serial number, and firmware version number.
Syntax:
*IDN?
Returns:
< Mfgr, Model#, Serial#, Version# >
Valid Modes:
Any
*RST
Description:
Set the instrument to a known default configuration. Set measurements to STOP. Set
the sensor temperature offset flag to FALSE, set the SCPI file over-write permission to
FALSE, turn the internal Calibrator output OFF and clear the error queues. System
communication parameters are not changed. Instrument measurement functions are
set their default values (Table 3-4, Initialized Parameters in the SGX1000 Instruction
Manual).
Syntax:
*RST
Argument:
None
Valid Modes:
