cfCalTransfer

CAUTION: Make sure that no cells are connected when executing cfCalTransfer.

Syntax

int cfCalTransfer(CF_HANDLE server);

Description

Begins a transfer calibration sequence. This function uses the instrument’s internal references to calibrate the measurement and output circuits of each channel. There should not be any loads or cells connected to the outputs when this command is given.

Since transfer calibration can take up to 15 minutes, calibration functions do not wait for calibration to complete. They return immediately after starting calibration. To monitor the progress and results of calibration, use cfGetInstStatus. While calibration is in progress, the CF_CALIBRATING_STAT bit is true. If any errors occur during calibration, the CF_CAL_ERROR_STAT bit is true. Details of the errors can be obtained using cfReadTestLog.

cfClose

Syntax

int cfClose(CF_HANDLE server);

Description

Closes a server connection. An Agilent MCCD server can only accommodate a limited number of open client connections. Closing a connection makes it available to other clients. Closing a connection does not affect the output functions of the server, and all other instrument functions continue to operate undisturbed by cfOpen and cfClose commands.

cfDeleteGroup

Syntax

int cfDeleteGroup(CF_HANDLE server);

Description

Deletes a group from the Agilent MCCD. Server is a handle that was previously obtained by a call to cfOpenGroup().
