FPAnel:TURN (No Query Form)
Simulates the action of turning a specified front-panel control knob.
When the front panel is locked, the front-panel button and multipurpose knob
operations are suspended. The FPAnel:PRESSand FPAnel:TURN commands
will also not work, and, they will not generate an error. You can work around
this by using the appropriate programmatic interface commands, instead of the
front-panel commands. For example, to set the trigger level to 50%, you could
use TRIGger:A SETLevel. To force a trigger, you could use TRIGger FORCe.

Syntax FPAnel:TURN <knob>,<n>
Arguments <knob> is the name of a rotating control.

argument. You do not need a white space between the argumentsand the comma.

represent a counterclockwise knob rotation, and positive values represent a
clockwise rotation. The magnitude of <n> specifies the amount of the turn, where

two units, <n> = 4 represents turning the knob four units, and so on. The range of
