CALibration
CALibrationn:VALue:CURRent?
CALibrationn:VALue:CURRent? <value> enters a measured calibration value and returns a value indicating the present state of the current calibration process.

Comments ∙ In the keyword, CALibrationn, the valid range of n is:
1 to 8 for | E1418A, E1418A Option 002 |
1 to 16 for | E1418A Option 001, E1418A Option 003. |
Values of n outside these ranges will generate an error.
∙This command is used together with the CALibrationn:CONFigure:CURRent? query to perform voltage mode calibration. Following the CALn:CONF:CURR? query, this command is used repetitively until the return value indicates that the calibration is complete.
∙The <value> parameter is the measured output voltage. A minimum of
9 measurements must be taken to calibrate a channel for current mode output (a maximum of 50 measurements may be required).
∙This query returns one of the following values:
Return | Meaning |
Value | |
0 | Calibration is complete. |
| New constants are in RAM. |
| Resistance is calibrated. |
1 | More measurements are needed. |
| Resistance is calibrated. |
|
|
2 | Calibration is complete. |
| New constants are in RAM. |
| Resistance is not calibrated. |
3 | More Measurements are needed. |
| Resistance is not calibrated. |
|
|
5 | Calibration aborted. |
