CALibrate:LEVel P1|P2|P3|P4
CALibrate:LEVel?
Advances to the next level in the calibration. P1 is the first level; P2 the second, P3 the third, and P4 the fourth.
Parameter

Selects the first calibration point: CAL:LEV P1
Some calibration sequences may require some settling time after sending CAL:LEV but before reading the data
l
from the DVM and sending CAL:DATA.
CALibrate:PASSword < password >
Sets a numeric password to prevent unauthorized calibration.
Parameter
<password>a numeric value up to 15 digits
Set a new password to a value of 1234: CAL:PASS 1234
If the password is set to 0, password protection is removed and the ability to enter calibration mode is unrestricted.

l
If you forget your password, refer to
l
This setting is non-volatile; it will not be changed by power cycling or *RST.
l
CALibrate:SAVE
Saves the calibration constants in non-volatile memory. Do this at the end of the calibration to avoid losing changes.
Parameter
