Model 2308 Portable Device Battery/Charger Simulator User’s Manual
Section 13: Calibration
Remote calibration
Follow the procedure outlined below to perform Model 2308 remote calibration by sending SCPI
commands over the IEEE-488 bus. The remote commands and appropriate parameters are
separately summarized for each step.
Remote calibration display
The Model 2308 will display the following while being calibrated over the bus:
CALIBRATING UNIT
FROM THE BUS R
Remote calibration procedure
Use the following procedure to calibrate the Model 2308.
Table 13-3
summarizes the calibration
steps in the proper sequence. See
Appendix B
for command details.
Step 1: Prepare the Model 2308 for calibration
1. Connect the Model 2308 to the controller IEEE-488 interface using a shielded interface
cable.
2. Turn on the Model 2308 and the test equipment, and allow them to warm up for at least one
hour before performing calibration.
3. Make sure the IEEE-488 primary address of the Model 2308 is the same as the address
specified in the program you will be using to send commands.
4. Send the following command with the correct code to unlock calibration:
:CAL:PROT:CODE ‘<code>’
For example, with the factory default code of KI002308, send:
CAL:PROT:CODE ‘KI002308’
5. Send the following command to initiate calibration:
:CAL:PROT:INIT
NOTE
The “R” located on the lower right hand corner of the display indicates remote
operation.
NOTE
Calibration steps must be performed in the following sequence, or an error will
occur. You can abort the procedure and revert to previous calibration constants
before
:SAVE
by sending the
:CAL:PROT:LOCK
command.
Calibration is performed on both channels at the same time - it is not possible to
only calibrate one channel.
