Calibration Commands
SAMPlers
The values returned by this query indicate the current calibration recommendations of the
analyzer. There are seven comma-separated integers. A "1" indicates that a calibration is rec-
ommended, a 0 indicates that the calibration is either not required or not possible. These val-
ues match the calibration recommendations found in the
All Calibrations
dialog box.
Open the Calibrate menu on the instrument display screen, then choose All Calibrations to
open the All Calibrations dialog box. <N> is an integer, 1 through 4.

SAMPlers
Command :CALibrate:SAMPlers {DISable | ENABle}
This command enables or disables the samplers in the module.
Example
The following example enables sampler calibration for the module.
10 OUTPUT 707;":CALIBRATE:SAMPLERS ENABLE"
Query :CALibrate:SAMPlers?
The query returns the current calibration enable/disable setting.
Returned Format [:CALibrate:SAMPlers]{DISable | ENABle}<NL>
Example The following example gets the current setting for sampler calibration, stores it in the vari-
able Sampler$.
10 DIM Sampler$[50] !Dimension variable
20 OUTPUT 707;":CALIBRATE:SAMPLERS?"
30 ENTER 707;Sampler$
SDONe?
Query :CALibrate:SDONe?
The CALibrate:SDONe (Step DONe) query will return when the current calibration step is
complete. The contents of the string returned indicates to the user the next step.
Whenever a calibration message is displayed on the instrument, send the :CALibrate:CON-
Tinue, :CALibrate:CANCel, or :CALibrate:SDONE commands. Sending any other command,
including *OPC, disrupts the instrument forcing you to cycle instrument power.
Returned Format [:CALibrate:SDONe] <string><NL>
Example
This example places the current selection for the calibration pass/fail status to be printed in
the string variable, Selection$.
