Updating the Calibration Date and Temperature
If the NI 5402/5406 passed verification within the calibration test limits and
you do not want to perform an adjustment, you can update the calibration
date and onboard calibration temperature without making any adjustments
by completing the following steps:
1.
Open an NI-FGEN external calibration session by calling the niFgen
Init Ext Cal VI.
2.
Close the instrument driver session and save the calibration date and
temperature to the onboard EEPROM by calling the niFgen Close Ext
Cal VI.
