valuefor the specified scale parameter. Specifying the MIN, MAX, or DEF pa-

rameter sets the scale parameter to the minimum, maximum, or default value

respectively.

8.4.5.10 CALibrate<chn>:PARameter:LINearity<n>? [MIN|MAX|DEF]

Returns the calibration linearity parameter for the specified channel.

CAL1:PAR:LIN1?

2.8

This command onlyapplies to PRT/Thermistor channels. Executing this com-

mand on Thermocouplechannels generates a -294, "Incompatible type" error

message.

The CALibratesuffix, <chn>, specifies the channel (1 to 4). This command

does notapply to memory channels. For PRT/Thermistor channels, the calibra-

tion linearity suffix,<n >, specifiesthe r esistance range parameter for PRTs(1)

or Thermistors(2). Note: ForPRT/Thermistor channels, the value returned by

this command is always in ohms.

Specifying the MIN parameter returns a value of -9 when the linearity suffix

<n> is1 (for PRTs) and -9000 when the linearity suffix <n> is 2 (for Thermis-

tors). Specifying the MAX parameter returns a value of 9 when the linearity

suffix<n> is 1 (for PRTs) and 9000 when the linearity suffix <n> is 2 (for

Thermistors). Specifying the DEF parameter returns a valueof 0.

8.4.5.11 CALibrate<chn>:PARameter:LINearity<n> <num>|MIN|MAX|DEF

Sets the calibration linearity parameter for the specified channel.

CAL1:PAR:LIN15

This command onlyapplies to PRT/Thermistor channels. Executing this com-

mand on Thermocouplechannels generates a -294, "Incompatible type" error

message.

The CALibratesuffix, <chn>, specifies the channel (1 to 4). This command

does notapply to memory channels. For PRT/Thermistor channels, the calibra-

tion scalesuffix <n> specifies the resistance range parameter (in ohms) for

PRTs(1) or Thermistors (2). The <num> parameter specifies the value for the

specifiedlinearity parameter. Specifying the MIN, MAX, or DEF parameter

sets thelinearity parameter to the minimum, maximum, or default value

respectively.

This command is password-protected. Toaccess this command, the password
