CAL:STAT

This command enables and disables the calibration mode. The calibration mode must be enabled before the power supply
will accept any other calibration commands. The first parameter specifies the enabled or disabled state. The second
parameter is the password. It is required if the calibration mode is being enabled and the existing password is not 0. If the
second parameter is not entered or is incorrect, an error is generated and the calibration mode remains disabled. The query
statement returns only the state, not the password. Note that whenever the calibration mode is changed from enabled to
disabled, any new calibration constants are lost unless they have been stored with CAL:SAVE.

CAL:VOLT

This command is used to calibrate the output voltage. The command enters voltage value that you obtain from an external
meter. (If you are entering the voltage value, allow time for the DVM to stabilize.) You must first select a calibration level
(CAL:VOLT:LEV) for the value being entered. Two successive values (one for each end of the calibration range) must be
selected and entered. The power supply then computes new voltage calibration constants. These constants are not stored in
nonvolatile memory until saved with the CAL:SAVE command.

CAL:VOLT:LEV

This command sets the power supply to a calibration point that is then entered with CAL:VOLT[:DATA]. During
calibration, two points must be entered and the low-end point (MIN) must be selected and entered first.

CAL:VOLT:PROT

This command calibrates the overvoltage protection (OV) circuit. It takes several seconds to complete. The output voltage
must be calibrated before this procedure is performed. Also, the power supply output must be enabled and operating in the
constant voltage (CV) mode. If present, the optional relay accessory must either be disconnected or set to the off (open)
state. The power supply automatically performs the calibration and stores the new OV constant in nonvolatile memory.
