Comments The new calibration constant is used by the module but not stored in non-volatile memory.

This command is used together with the CALibration:CONFigure:RESistance? query to calibrate the internal current calibration resistor.

The internal calibration resistor should be calibrated before calibrating channels in current mode. When calibrating at the CAL connections and using the internal calibration resistor, the value need only be entered once to calibrate all channels.

If using an external resistor to calibrate current mode, you must calibrate at each channel output. External resistances in the range of 50 Ω to 500 Ω are recommended.

Refer to Appendix D, “ Voltage/Current Output Adjustment” , starting on page 154, for additional information about this command.
