parameters are specified in a command, they are separated by a comma ",".

entered. For a description of the types of parameter, refer to Section
"Parameters".

his query requests the maximal value for the attenuation.

several inputs, the desired function can be selected by a suffix added to the
command. Entries without suffix are interpreted like entries with the suffix 1.
Optional keywords must be specified if they select a function with the suffix.
