Calibration

Correction Factors: correction factor read:

cfr,m;

read one correction factor specified by m ( 0 <= m <=53 )

cfrm=1

is returned where 1 is the integer value of the correction factor, or if m is

out of the valid range ‘invalid parameter’ message is sent.

correction factor write:

cfw,m,n;

write to one specified correction factor specified by m ( as with cfr ) ‘n’ is the
‘AOK

is returned if change is accepted or ‘invalid parameter’ is returned if either

m or n is out of range or string is not complete or improperly delimited.

Correction Factor x Power MultiMeter Indication = 100 % accuracy
Instrument Correction Factor = 1 + (Correction Factor / 1,000,000)
