(Output Error query) Shows the UUT error and units computed by the Calibrator after
shifting the output with the
INCR
command. The return units are
PPM
(parts per million),
PCT
(percent),
DB
(decibels) or
0
if there is no error. The UUT error is not computed
when editing frequency.
Response:
<value of error>,<units>
Example:
OUT_ERR?
shows -
1.01,PCT
Shows –10% when the UUT is reading low by 10 %.

(Phase Difference command) Sets a phase difference between the Calibrator front panel
NORMAL and AUX or 20A terminals for ac power and ac dual voltage outputs. The
NORMAL terminal output is the phase reference. The set range is 0.00 to
±180.00 degrees, with + for a leading phase difference and – for a lagging phase
difference.
Parameter:
<phase value> DEG
(DEG, for degree, is optional)
Example: PHASE
–60
DEG
Set the phase difference so the frequency output at the AUX terminals lags the frequency
output at the NORMAL terminals by 60 degrees.

Example:
PHASE?
shows
-6.000E+01
Shows –60 when the frequency output at the AUX terminals is lagging the frequency
output at the NORMAL terminals by 60 degrees.

(Calculate Power Output query) Shows the equivalent real power for ac and dc power
outputs, based on the voltage and current settings, and power factor (ac only). If the
output is not ac or dc power, the return is
0E+00
(zero) watts.
Response: <value> (in
watts)
Example:
POWER?
shows
1.01
Shows 10 when the output voltage is 10 V dc and output current 1 A dc, for 10 watts real
power.
Example:
POWER?
shows
1.01
Shows 10 when the output voltage is 10 V ac and output current 2 A ac and power factor
is .5, for 10 watts real power.
