Details
This attribute stores the adjustment date associated with the active calibration set. The adjustment
date can be read at any time, but can only be assigned a new value when calibration has been
enabled with the
smu
X
.cal.unlock()
function.
You cannot change the adjustment date without first making a change to the calibration constants.
Once you change any calibration constants, you must set the adjustment date before you can save
the calibration data to the nonvolatile memory of the SMU.
This attribute is stored with the active calibration set. If a different calibration set is restored, this
attribute reflects the date stored with that set.
smu
X
.cal.adjustdate
must be set to the date the adjustment was done using the UTC time and
date. The date is stored as the number of seconds since UTC, 12:00 am Jan 1, 1970.
Due to the internal storage format,
smu
X
.cal.adjustdate
is only accurate to within a few minutes
of the value set.
Example
smua.cal.adjustdate = os.time()
Sets the adjustment date for SMU channel A to the current
time set on the instrument.
