Type
Command and query
Usage
:CALibration:SAVE
:CALibration:SAVE?
Details
Use this command to store internally calculated calibration constants that were derived during the
comprehensive adjustment procedure to nonvolatile memory. Calibration constants are retained
indefinitely once saved.
The :CALibration:SAVE command is usually sent after all other adjustment steps have been
completed, but before sending the :CALibration:LOCK command.
Adjustment is only temporary until the :CALibration:SAVE command is sent to permanently store
the calibration constants.
Adjustment data will not be saved if one of the following conditions occurs:
•
Calibration was not unlocked by sending the :CALibration:UNLock command before
adjustment
•
Invalid data exists (for example, an adjustment step failed or was aborted)
•
An incomplete number of adjustment steps were performed (for example, if a negative full-scale
step was omitted)
