(designed to be loaded into a
spreadsheet )
3. Calibration interval to be used for instrument specifications in the
report:
I90D
(90 day spec),

(Protected User Data command) Stores a string of 64 characters (maximum), which is
kept in the Calibrator non-volatile memory. (While saving configuration data in the non-
volatile memory, a period of about 2 seconds, the Calibrator does not respond to remote
commands.) This command works only when the CALIBRATION switch on the rear
panel of the Calibrator is in the ENABLE position. Include a line feed (RS-232) character
to stop the block data or End or Identify (EOI) command (IEEE-488).
Parameter:
#2

(definite length)
#0
<character string>
(indefinite length)

(character
string)
Example:
*PUD #0CAL LAB NUMBER 1
Store the string
CAL LAB NUMBER 1
in the protected user data area with the indefinite
length format.
Example:
*PUD #216CAL LAB NUMBER 1
Store the string
CAL LAB NUMBER 1
in the protected user data area with the definite
length format, where #2 means two digits follow which represent the number of text
characters nn in
CAL LAB NUMBER 1
(including spaces=16).
Example:
*PUD “CAL LAB NUMBER 1”
Store the string
CAL LAB NUMBER 1
in the protected user data area with the character
string format.

Shows #2 then 16 then 16 characters of text (with spaces) stored in the nonvolatile
memory.

(Range query) Shows the current output ranges. The primary output and secondary
outputs are shown. If there is no secondary output,
0
is shown. Dual outputs are shown
with
P
for primary output (front panel NORMAL terminals) and
S
for secondary output
(front panel AUX terminals).
Response:
<primary output>,<secondary output>
Examples:
DC330MV,0
(dc volts 330 mV range)
