Function Parameters
vi = contains a session handle to the instrument. This handle is
obtained by the function and remains valid until the session is
closed.
SETS THE TIMEOUT VALUE (IN MILLISECONDS).
INDICATING HOW LONG TO WAIT FOR INSTRUMENT
TO RESPOND. IN HIGHER LATENCY NETWORK, IT IS
BETTER NOT TO REDUCE DEFAULT TIMEOUT VALUE.
