CAL_FAULT?

(IEEE-488, RS-232)

(Calibration Fault query) Gets information about calibration error (if one occurred).

Response:

1. error number (use EXPLAIN? command to interpret)

2. name of step where error occurred

CAL_INFO?

(IEEE-488, RS-232)

(Calibration Information query) Returns message or instructions associated with running
step.

Response:

(string) the message string

CAL_NEXT

(IEEE-488, RS-232, Overlapped)

(Calibration Next command) Continues a calibration procedure if it is waiting.

Parameter:

(Optional) Reference value (used if it’s waiting for a reference). If the

reference value has no unit, the unit is assumed to be that returned by the

CAL_REF?

command.

Example: CAL_NEXT

CAL_NEXT 2.999987

CAL_REF?

(IEEE-488, RS-232)

(Calibration Reference query) Returns nominal value expected for reference entry.

Response:

1. the nominal value

2. the accepted or implied unit

Example: 3.00,V

CAL_SKIP

(IEEE-488, RS-232, Overlapped)
Skips to the next entry point in calibration procedure.

CAL_SECT

(IEEE-488, RS-232, Overlapped)
Skips to the next section of the calibration procedure.
