1. All pending output-parameter operations are halted.
2. The parser (the software that interprets the programming codes) is reset and now
expects to receive the first character of a programming code.
3. Any sweep in progress is aborted and continuous sweep is turned off.
4. Any I/Q calibration in progress will be aborted.
The syntax is:
