Channel list parameter:
<clist> = (@SCH)
where: S  =  Mainframe slot number (1 or 2)
CH =  Switching module channel number (must be 2 digits)
Examples: (@101) = Slot 1, Channel 1
(@101, 203) = Slot 1, Channel 1 and Slot 2, Channel 3
(@101:110) = Slot 1, Channels 1 through 10
1. The <clist> parameter is used to configure one or more channels for a scan. Each channel in the <clist> must be set to the function 
specified by the range command. If not, a conflict error (-221) will occur. For example, VOLTage:AC:RANGe 1, (@101) is only 
valid if scan channel 101 is set for the ACV function.
2. [:DC] is optional for the commands to set DCV and DCI range.
