CAL_NEXT
Overlapped CoupledIEEE-488 RS-232 Sequential
xx xxx
(Calibration Next command) Continue a calibration procedure if it is waiting.
Parameter: (Optional) Reference value (used if it’s waiting for a reference)
If the reference value has no unit, the unit is assumed to be that returned
by the CAL_REF? command.
Example: CAL_NEXT
CAL_NEXT 2.999987
CAL_REF?
Overlapped CoupledIEEE-488 RS-232 Sequential
xx xxx
(Calibration Reference query) Return nominal value expected for reference entry.
Response: 1. the nominal value
2. the accepted or implied unit
Example: 3.000000ef00,V
CAL_SHIFT?
Overlapped CoupledIEEE-488 RS-232 Sequential
xx xxx
(Calibration Shift command) return a calibration shift.
Parameter: 1. (char) the shift type:
ACTIVE compares ACTIVE with STORED
STORED compares STORED with OLD
DEFAULT compares ACTIVE with DEFAULT
2. (char) the range name
3. (float) the magnitude at which to calculate the shift
4. (float) the frequency at which to calculate the shift
Parameter 4 is required for all ranges even when it is ignored
Response: (float) the shift
CAL_START
Overlapped CoupledIEEE-488 RS-232 Sequential
xx xxx
(Calibration Start command) Start a calibration procedure.
Parameter: 1. Procedure name (MAIN, SCOPE, ZERO, BOOST, or NOT): FACTORY
MAIN is the procedure for the 5500 except for scope and 5725
BOOST is the procedure for the 5725A
SCOPE is the procedure for the 5500A scope cal option
ZERO is the internal procedure to touch up zero offsets
NOT aborts a procedure after the step is underway
2. (Optional) name of the step at which to start.
If this parameter is not provided, it starts at the beginning.
Example: CAL_START MAIN
CAL_START MAIN, DVG3_3
