<range> ::= vertical full-scale range value in NR3 format
<suffix> ::= {V | mV}
The :EXTernal:RANGe command is provided for product compatibility.
When using 1:1 probe attenuation:
• In 2- channel models, the range can be set to 1.0 V or 8.0 V.
• In 4- channel models, the range can only be set to 5.0 V.
If the probe attenuation is changed, the range value is multiplied by the
probe attenuation factor.

The :EXTernal:RANGe? query returns the current full- scale range setting
for the external trigger.
