Whenever CAL:AUTO ONCE is sent, the power module performs an immediate readback temperature compensation. CAL:AUTO ONCE is a sequential command that takes several seconds to complete. When CAL:AUTO ON is sent, the power module automatically performs a readback temperature compensation before executing every MEAS command. Use of this command extends the execution time of every MEAS query.

CAL:CURR

This command can only be used in the calibration mode. It enters a current value that you obtain by reading an external meter. You must first select a calibration level (CAL:CURR:LEV) for the value being entered. Two successive values (one for each end of the calibration range) must be selected and entered. The power module then computes new current calibration constants. These constants are not stored in nonvolatile memory until saved with the CAL:SAVE command.

Command Syntax

CALibrate:CURRent[:DATA] <NRf>

Parameters

(See Table 3-2)

Default Suffix

A

Examples

CAL:CURR 3222.3 MA CAL:CURR:DATA 5.000

Related Commands

CAL:SAVE CAL:STAT

CAL:CURR:LEV

This command can only be used in the calibration mode. It sets the power module to a calibration point that is then entered with CAL:CURR[:DATA]. During calibration, two points must be entered and the low-end point (MIN) must be selected and entered first.

Command Syntax

CALibrate:CURRent:LEVel <CRD>

Parameters

MINimum MAXimum

Examples

CAL:CURR:LEV MIN CAL:CURR:LEV MAX

Query Syntax

(None)

CAL:CURR[:DATA] CAL:STAT

CAL:PASS

This command can only be used in the calibration mode. It allows you to change the calibration password. Unless it is changed subsequently to shipment, the password is the model number of the power module. A new password is automatically stored in nonvolatile memory and does not have to be stored with the CAL:SAVE command.

If the password is set to 0, password protection is removed and the ability to enter the calibration mode is unrestricted.

Command Syntax

CALibrate:PASScode <NRf>

Parameters

<NRf>

Examples

CAL:PASS 66102 CAL:PASS 09.1991
