ALARM_LIMIT Set Alarm Limit
Store alarm limit information for the indicated channel and limit. The
fields to be given (in order) are:
ALARM_LIMIT <channel>,<limit_num>,<sense>,<value>
<channel> = (0 .. 20)
<limit_num> = 1 2
<sense> = HI LO OFF
<value> = Signed numeric quantity
A Command Error is generated if a value is supplied when the sense is
OFF. An Execution Error is generated under any of the following
circumstances:
<value> is outside the range +/-9999.9 Mega (E+6).
<channel>, <limit_num>, or <sense> are not specified from the given list.
A <channel> that is defined as OFF is specified.
Note that old alarm settings for a channel are lost when the function for
that channel is changed.
ALARM_LIMIT? Alarm Limit Assignments Query

ALARM_LIMIT? <channel>,<limit_num>
<channel> = (0 .. 20)
<limit_num> = 1 2

limits, the value is returned in scientific notation format with five digits of

1 or 2, an Execution Error is generated.
Remember that old alarm settings for a channel are lost when
the function for that channel is changed.
