(Format command) Use with extreme care. Restores the contents of the nonvolatile
memory device to factory defaults. The memory holds calibration constants and setup
parameters. You lose all calibration data permanently. The CALIBRATION switch on
the rear panel of the Calibrator must be set in the ENABLE position or an execution error
occurs, except for FORMAT SETUP.
Parameter: ALL (replaces the whole contents with factory defaults)
CAL (replaces all cal constants with factory defaults)
SETUP (replaces setup parameters with factory defaults)
Example: FORMAT SETUP
Replace the setup parameters with the default setup values (below). (The FORMAT ALL
command is the same as FORMAT CAL and then FORMAT SETUP.) The FORMAT
SETUP command also clears the *PUD string (see the *PUD command) and SRQSTR is
set to “SRQ: %02x %02x %04x %04x” (see the SRQSTR command) and SPLSTR is set
to “SPL: %02x %02x %04x %04x” (see the SPLSTR command).
