Description This command is used to define the 3-bit or 4-bit output pattern for 
the Digital I/O Port when a test (limit 2, 3, 5-12) for the sorting mode 
passes. Note that the output value can be specified in binary, octal, 
decimal, or hexadecimal format. Use the table provided in the

STATe <b>
:CALCulate2:LIMit[1]:STATe <b> Control LIMIT 1 test 
:CALCulate2:LIMitx:STATe <b> Control LIMIT x test (x = 2, 3, 5-12)
Parameters <b> = 1 or ON Enable specified limit test
0 or OFF Disable specified limit test
Query :STATe? Query state of specified limit test 
Description These commands are used to enable or disable LIMIT 1, LIMIT 2, 
LIMIT 3, and LIMIT 5 to LIMIT 12 tests. Any limit test not enabled is 
simply not performed.
When a limit test is enabled, the Digital I/O port comes under control 
of limit tests. That is, the result of the testing process updates the 
output pattern on the I/O port.
