channel individually. However, you should repeat the entire verification
procedure to verify a successful adjustment.
Calibration Utilities
NI-SCOPE supports several calibration utilities that allow you to retrieve
information about adjustments performed on the NI 5922, change the
external calibration password, and store small amounts of information in
the onboard EEPROM. You can retrieve some data using MAX; however,
you can retrieve all the data programmatically using NI-SCOPE functions.

1.
Select the device from which you want to retrieve information from

tab in the lower right corner.
You should see information about the last date and temperature for both
external and self-calibration.
