10.2.1 Calibration State
CALibrate:STATe
This command puts the AC source in calibration mode. The calibration mode is required to
use the data entry form of the calibration commands. Without setting the correct state using
this command, only the query form can be used to query any calibration coefficients but no
new calibration can be performed. Calibration queries return the calibration coefficient for
the specified measurement parameter. Calibration coefficients range from -127 to + 127.
Note Any changes made to calibration coefficients are not saved in non-volatile
memory until the SYSTem:SAVE command is issued before turning the Cal
state off.
