The range function in the LCR driver is not working. The issue is that we attempt to perform a fancy string to number to string coversion. The LCR will only take the following in its SCPI commands (tested manually)
📖 SCPI Command Reference
The driver wraps these low-level serial commands into high-level Python methods.
