CALibration[1]|2:ZERO:AUTO <boolean>
CALibration[1]|2:ZERO:AUTO <boolean>
This command causes the power meter to perform its zeroing routine on
the specified channel when ONCE is selected. This adjusts the power meter
for a zero power reading with no power supplied to the power sensor.
The 0|OFF parameter is only required for the query response and is
ignored in the command. If 1|ON is selected, it causes the error -224,
"Illegal parameter value" to occur.
The command assumes that the power sensor is not connected to a power
source.
Syntax
CAL
Example
CAL2:ZERO:AUTO ONCE
Reset Condition
On reset, automatic zeroing is disabled.
Query
CALibration[1]|2:ZERO:AUTO?
The query always returns a value of 0.
Error Messages
• If zeroing was not carried out successfully the error -231, "Data
Questionable; ZERO ERROR" occurs. If you are using a dual channel
power meter, the error message specifies which channel the zeroing
failed on.
• If this command is set to ON the error -224, "Illegal parameter value"
occurs.
• If there is no sensor connected, the error -241, "Hardware Missing"
occurs.
