HP E1418A SCPI Command Reference
•
A returned value of 5 (calibration aborted) is given if either:
a. The command is received when the module is in voltage calibration or
resistance calibration mode, or
b. The calibration in process has entered more than 50 values without a
successful calibration.
•
If the internal calibration resistor is not calibrated, the channel is not marked as
calibrated following the completion of calibration (see the
query). The new calibration constants are used, however.
•
When the channel current calibration is completed, the new calibration constants
are used by the module, but not stored in non-volatile memory.
•
If a calibration is interrupted before completion (that is, by another command
being received), no constants will be changed.
•
Refer to Appendix D, "Voltage/Current Output Adjustment", starting on page 157,
for additional information about this command.

This command is used together with the
to perform voltage mode calibration. Following the
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 voltage output channel
(a maximum of 50 measurements may be required).
