The magnitude of the first pulse is start amperes; the magnitude of the last pulse is stop amperes.
The magnitude of each pulse in between is step amperes larger than the previous pulse, where:
step = (stop - start) / (points - 1)
This function does not cause the specified smu to output a pulse train. It does check to see if all the
pulse dimensions can be achieved, and if they can, assigns the indicated tag or index to the pulse
train. The InitiatePulseTest(tag) and InitiatePulseTestDual(tag1, tag2) functions
are used to initiate a pulse train assigned to a valid tag.

Set up a pulsed sweep that uses channel A. The pulsed sweep starts at 10 mA, ends at 50 mA, and returns to
a 0 mA bias level between pulses. Each pulsed step is on for 1 ms, and then at the bias level for 100 ms. The
voltage limit is 1 V during the entire pulsed sweep. The pulse train is comprised of 20 pulsed steps and the
pulse train is assigned a tag index of 3.
