DESCRIPTION The TIME_DIV command modifies the
timebase setting. The new timebase setting may
be specified with suffixes: NS for nanoseconds,
US for microseconds, MS for milliseconds, S
for seconds, or KS for kiloseconds. An out-of-
range value causes the VAB bit (bit 2) in the
STB register to be set.
The TIME_DIV? query returns the current
timebase setting.
