6.6.2
CALibration Subsystem
This subsystem is used to calibrate the functions and hardware ranges of the 9100. This will correct for any system errors due to
drift or ageing effects.
Before any calibration can take place, two security levels must be set. First, there is a switch on the 9100 itself that must be set to
CAL ENABLE. Having done this, the calibration password command must be sent.
Once entered into Calibration mode, the commands present in the table at 6.6.2.1 are enabled.

6.6.2.2
CAL:SEC:PASS
Purpose
This command is used to gain access to Calibration mode. The <SPD> must be the correct 'Calibration' password registered in the
9100 software. The calibration password can be changed only in Configuration mode from the 9100 front panel.
(Refer to Volume 1 of this User's Handbook, Section 3, Paras 3.3.2.11 and 3.2.2.22).
6.6.2.3
CAL:SEC:EXIT [<SPD>,<CPD>{PRD7|PRD14|PRD30|PRD60}]
Purpose
This command is used to switch off Calibration mode, cancelling any set CAL:TARG command and protecting the calibration by
positively disabling the calibration commands. Parameters in the command permit a user optionally to date-stamp the calibration,
record the next-due calibration date, and set up an advance warning for that calibration. Certain Functions are not available in
Calibration Mode (such as Conductance and Logic Pulses/Levels, for which calibration is not required). When finishing a
calibration procedure, it is necessary to exit from Calibration mode in order to access these functions.
The <SPD> must be the due date of the next calibration for the 9100. It must conform to the format decided by the SYStem
FORmat <spd> command.
In the <CPD>, PRDXX gives the required number of days advance warning of the cal due date.
(Refer to Section 10, Paras 10.3.6).
