FORMat Subsystem
Default units are defined, where applicable, for each SCPI command. The UNIT

apply to the designated command parameters for both command and response.

character data for valid names for files, so it is necessary to use STRing format
to input names that are not valid character data.

*RST: Set FORMat to CHARacter.
Error: If the currently selected program name is not legal character data, but
FORMat:PNAMe is set to CHARacter, a settings conflict error will be returned
