[n]
Channel number: For single-channel instruments, the value is 1.
<step>
The following steps represent the entire calibration process:
Step1: V-ADC and V-DAC zero-point calibration.
Step2: V-ADC and V-DAC full-scale calibration.
Step3: I-100 mA and I-10 mA ADC zero-point calibration.
Step4: I-100 mA and I-10 mA ADC full-scale calibration.
Step5: I-10 A and I-1 A ADC zero-point calibration.
Step6: I-DAC zero-point calibration.
Step7: I-10 A and I-1 A ADC full-scale calibration.
Step8: I-DAC full-scale calibration.
Step9: I-10 A and I-1 A ADC zero-point calibration for sink current.
Step10: I-DAC zero-point calibration for sink current.
Step11: I-10 A and I-1 A ADC full-scale calibration for sink current.
Step12: I-DAC full-scale calibration for sink current.
<voltage>
Voltage reading from the external DMM.
<resistance>
The resistance of the resistor load.
Details
This command is used to set the voltage or resistance for calibration.
Step 6 and step 8 do not need external data entry. The instrument can collect the data for DAC
calibration.
