// PROGRAM NAME:
//
// PROGRAM DESCRIPTION: This code example uses the RS-232 serial interface to
// control the signal generator.
//
// Connect the computer to the signal generator using an RS-232 serial cable.
// The user is asked to set the signal generator for a 0 dBm power level
// A reset command *RST is sent to the signal generator via the RS-232
// interface and the power level will reset to the -135 dBm level.The default
// attributes e.g. 9600 baud, no parity, 8 data bits,1 stop bit are used.
// These attributes can be changed using VISA functions.
//
// IMPORTANT: Set the signal generator BAUD rate to 9600 for this test
