Calibration Message
You can use the calibration message feature to record calibration
information about your meter. For example, you can store such
information as the last calibration date, the next calibration due date,
the meter’s serial number, or even the name and phone number of the
person to contact for a new calibration.
You can record information in the calibration message only from the
remote interface. You can read the message from either the front-panel
menu or the remote interface.
• The calibration message may contain up to 40 characters. The meter
can display up to 11 characters of the message on the front panel; any
additional characters are truncated.
• The calibration message is stored in non-volatile memory, and does
not change when power has been off or after a remote interface reset.
• Front Panel operation: read the calibration message (if any) under
the 4: MESSAGE command in the CALibrate menu.
• Remote operation: use the following command to store a calibration
message:
CALibration:STRing <
quoted string
