Calibrate Commands
Calibrate commands calibrate the instrument. only one channel can be calibrated at a time.
If calibration mode has not been enabled with CALibrate:STATe, the calibration commands will
generate an error. Use CALibrate:SAVE to save any changes, otherwise all changes will be lost when
you exit calibration mode.
Read the calibration section before calibrating. Improper calibration can reduce
accuracy and reliability.
CALibrate:COUNt?
Returns the number of times the unit has been calibrated. The count is incremented whenever the
calibration (or date) is saved, the administration password is changed (or reset using the internal
switches), or the firmware is updated.
Parameter Typical Return
(none) <count>
Return the calibration count: CAL:COUN?
CALibrate:CURRent[:LEVel] < value >, (@<channel>)
Calibrates the output current. The value entered selects the range that is being calibrated.
Parameter Typical Return
The maximum current of the range. (none)
Calibrates the output current of the 10 A range: CAL:CURR 10.2, (@1)
CALibrate:CURRent:LIMit:NEGative < value ], (@<channel>)
Calibrates the negative current limit. The value must be specified as negative. There is only one
negative current range.
Parameter Typical Return
The maximum current of the range. (none)
Calibrates the negative current limit: CAL:CURR:LIM:NEG -2, (@1)
CALibrate:CURRent:LIMit:POSitive < value >, (@<channel>)
Calibrates the positive current limit. The value entered selects the range that is being calibrated.
