Set the instrument into the front panel lockout condition. The front panel’s controls
cannot be used.

(Low Potential Output Terminals command) Selects if the Calibrator front panel
NORMAL LO terminal and AUX LO terminal are internally tied together (default) or are
open. This feature is used for ac power, dc power, dual dc volts and dual ac volts outputs.
When set, the Calibrator keeps the LO setting until power off or reset.
Parameter: OPEN (disconnect NORMAL LO and AUX LO terminals)
TIED (connect NORMAL LO and AUX LO terminals)
Example: LOWS TIED
Tie the front panel NORMAL LO and AUX LO terminals together.

(Low Potential Output Terminals query) Shows if the Calibrator front panel NORMAL
LO terminal and AUX LO terminal are internally tied together (default) or are open.
Response: OPEN (disconnected NORMAL LO and AUX LO terminals)
TIED (connected NORMAL LO and AUX LO terminals)
Example: LOWS? shows OPEN
Shows OPEN when the Calibrator front panel NORMAL LO and AUX LO terminals are
not tied together.
MULT

(Multiply command) Multiplies the reference magnitude (as selected with the EDIT
command or default to the primary output). The reference magnitude is the current
reference in direct mode or in error mode.
Parameter: <value> (multiplier expressed as a floating point number)
Example: MULT 2.5
Multiply the reference that exists by 2.5, creating a new reference. For example, a
reference that exists of 1 V is multiplied to 2.5 V.

(New Reference command) Sets the new reference to the current Calibrator output value
and exit the error mode (if selected). For example, you might edit the Calibrator output
with the EDIT and INCR commands, and then use the NEWREF command to establish a
new reference point and exit the error mode. This is the same as pressing the Calibrator
front panel key.
Parameter: (None)
Example: NEWREF
Set the reference value to the current Calibrator output value.

(Old Reference command) Sets the Calibrator output to the reference value and exit the
error mode (if selected). If editing the output with the EDIT and INCR commands and
