Note: The Find Now feature on the Embedded LO dialog is performed remotely by doing a 'Single Sweep" with ELO enabled.  See example program.

Note: The Embedded LO DIAGnostic commands read data from the various broadband and precise tuning sweeps, similar to the textual and graphical data that are available in the user interface.
