Calibration Commands
CALibration:COUNt?
This command queries the power supply to determine the number of times it has been
calibrated.
CALibration:CURRent[:DATA] <numeric value>
This command can only be used after calibration is unsecured. It enters a current
value of a selected output that you obtained by reading an external meter. You must
first select a calibration level (CAL:CURR:LEV) for the value being entered. Two
successive values (one for each end of the calibration range) must be selected and
entered. The power supply then computes new calibration constants, which are then
stored in internal memory.
CALibration:CURRent:LEVel {MINimum | MAXimum}
Before using this command, you must select the output which is to be calibrated by
INSTrument command. This command can only be used after calibration is unsecured.
It sets the power supply to a calibration point that is entered with
CALibration:CURRent[:DATA] command. During calibration, two calibration points
must be entered and the low-end point (MIN) must be selected and entered first.
CALibration:SECure:CODE <new code>
This command enters a new security code. To change the security code, first unsecure
the power supply with the old security code. Then, enter the new one.
CALibration:SECure:STATe {OFF | ON>}, <code>
This command secures or unsecures the power supply for calibration.
CALibration:SECure:STATe?
This command queries and returns the current secured state for calibration of the
power supply. The returned parameter is “0” (unsecured) or “1” (secured).
CALibration:STRing <quoted string>
This command records calibration information about your power supply.
For example, you can store such information as the calibrator and the calibration date.
CALibration:STRing?
This command queries the calibration message and returns a quoted string.
CALibration:VOLTage[:DATA] <numeric value>
This command can only be used after calibration is unsecured. It enters a voltage
value of a selected output that you obtained by reading an external meter. You must
first select a calibration level (CAL:VOLT:LEV) for the value being entered. Two
successive values (one for each end of the calibration range) must be selected and
entered. The power supply then computes new voltage calibration constants, which
