CALibrate:STATe ON|OFF [,<password>]
CALibrate:STATe?
This command enables/disables calibration mode. Calibration mode
must be enabled for the power supply to accept any other calibration
commands. The first parameter specifies the enabled or disabled
state On (1) or Off (0). The second parameter is the password.
A password is required if calibration mode is being enabled and the
existing password is not 0. If the password is not entered or is
incorrect, an error is generated and the calibration mode remains
disabled. The query returns only the state, not the password.
The *RST value = Off.
CALibrate:VOLTage[:LEVel]
This command initiates the calibration of the output voltage.
Measure Commands

commands acquire new data before returning the reading.
Measurement overflows return a reading of 9.91E+37.
MEASure[:SCALar]:CURRent[:DC]?
MEASure[:SCALar]:VOLTage[:DC]?
These queries perform a measurement and return the DC output
current in amperes or DC output voltage in volts.
