current value. Adjust the main output current to 100%.
8. Press any key other than the + or – keys to exit from the interactive
calibration mode.
Storing and Loading Calibration Parameters
Xantrex recommends that you save all the calibration parameters in a text
file so they can be reloaded in the event of a flash failure or a mistake in
calibration.
To get the calibration data, execute the following two commands and
save the response in a text file:
The SCPI command (s) to download all the calibration data are:
[:]CALibration:PARameter?
[:]CALibration:PARameter:APRogram?
The response to these commands are in the 488.2 Arbitrary Program
Block Data format.
If the calibration ever needs to be restored, you can execute the same
commands and write the arbitrary block data response that was received
in the query as the parameter.
For example, downloading the parameter data can be done from the hyper
terminal as follows.
