Appendix B: Calibration Utilities

NI-SCOPE supports several calibration utilities you can use to retrieve information about
adjustments performed on the NI 5114, change the external calibration password, and store
small amounts of information in the onboard EEPROM. Although you can retrieve some data
using MAX, you can retrieve all the data programmatically using NI-SCOPE functions.

MAX

To retrieve data using MAX, complete the following steps:
1.
Select the device from which you want to retrieve information from My System»Devices
and Interfaces.
2.
Select the Settings tab in the lower left corner.
You should see information about the last date and temperature for both external and
self-calibration.
