// the signal generator.
//
// Connect the computer to the signal generator using the RS-232 serial cable
// and enter the following code into the project .cpp source file.
// The program queries the signal generator ID string and sets and queries the power
// level. Query results are printed to the screen. The default attributes e.g. 9600 baud,
// parity, 8 data bits,1 stop bit are used. These attributes can be changed using VISA
// functions.
//
// IMPORTANT: Set the signal generator BAUD rate to 9600 for this test
