commands will generate an error.

 

 

CALibrate:CURRent[:LEVel] <NRf>

This command initiates the calibration of the output current. The value that you enter selects the range that is being calibrated.

CALibrate:DATA <NRf>

This command enters a calibration value that you obtain by reading an external meter. You must first select a calibration level (with CALibrate:LEVel) for the value being entered. Data values are entered in either volts or amperes, depending on which function is being calibrated.

CALibrate:DATE “<date>”

CALibrate:DATE?

This command stores the date the unit was last calibrated. The data must be of the numeric format “yyyy/mm/dd” where yyyy indicates the year, mm indicates the month, and dd indicates the day. The query returns the date.

CALibrate:LEVel P1P2

This command selects the next point in the calibration sequence.

P1 is the first calibration point,

P2 is the second calibration point.

CALibrate:PASSword <NRf>

This command lets you change the calibration password. A new password is automatically stored in nonvolatile memory. If the password is set to 0, password protection is removed and the ability to enter calibration mode is unrestricted. The default password is 0 (zero).
