Agilent Technologies E4370A Calibration Error Messages, Rear panel transfer calibration switch

Calibration - B

Rear panel transfer calibration switch

This push button switch is accessible through a recessed hole on the rear panel. When pressed, it initiates a transfer calibration sequence inside the Agilent MCCD. This is useful if you have replaced an Agilent E4374A Charger/Discharger card inside the mainframe. Note that the transfer calibration re-calibrates all of the cards inside the mainframe. Indicator lights next to the transfer calibration switch indicate the calibration status.

API Calls over the LAN

The following API calls let you access the calibration functions:

cfCal	begins a full calibration (mainframe and card)
cfCalStandard	begins a standard calibration (mainframe)
cfCalTransfer	begins a transfer calibration (card)

Refer to chapter 6 for more information about these API function calls.

Web-based Graphical User Interface

Refer to the on-line help provided with the Agilent MCCD User Interface for calibration information.

Calibration Error Messages

The two LEDs on the rear panel indicate the status of calibration and report calibration errors. More extensive text-based error reporting is available through the Agilent MCCD User Interface and the API functions.

CAL IN PROGESS	When flashing, it indicates that a calibration is in progress. Turns off when
	calibration is complete.
CAL FAILED	When lit, indicates that calibration has failed. Use this indicator in
	combination with the text based error reporting to isolate a failure as either
	on a card or on the mainframe.

To read the text based calibration error messages, use the cfReadSelftestLog() API function. If you are using the Agilent MCCD User Interface, you can read the error messages by accessing the System page, selecting Calibration and Selftest, and then clicking on Calibration Log. Write down the calibration error message and contact your Agilent Service Engineer.
