CAL_DATE?
Description
Sequential command.
Returns the date of the most recent calibration of the specified t
pe.
Parameter
B5725 (Last 5725A Amplifier calibration)
CAL (Last calibration of the Calibrator)
WBFLAT (Last wideband flatness calibration)
WBGAIN (Last wideband gain calibration)
ZERO
Last dc V zero calibration
Response
(Integer) Date as MMDDYY, DDMMYY, or YYMMDD depending on the setting of
DATEFMT.
CAL_DAYS?
Description
Sequential command.
Returns the number of days elapsed since the last calibration activity of the specified
type.
Parameter
B5725 (Last 5725A Amplifier calibration)
CAL (Last calibration of the Calibrator)
WBFLAT (Last wideband flatness calibration)
WBGAIN (Last wideband gain calibration)
ZERO (Last dc V zero calibration)
Response (Integer) Number of elapsed days
CAL_INTV
Description
Sequential command, ignored if not in remote.
Sets the calibration interval for main output calibration. This value is saved in nonvolatile
memory and used for calculating the Calibrator output uncertainty.
Parameter 1, 90, 180, or 365- the number of days in the calibration cycle.
CAL_INTV?
Description
Sequential command.
Returns the calibration interval for main output calibration.
Parameter None
Response (Integer) 1, 90, 180, or 365- the number of days in the calibration cycle.
CAL_PASSWD
Description
Sequential command. Ignored if not in remote. Sets security password. The Calibrator
secure state must be set to off or an execution fault results.
Parameter
1. current security passcode (quoted string consisting of up to 8 decimal digits).
2. new security passcode (quoted string consisting of up to 8 decimal digits).
Example
CAL_PASSWD "5730", "12345"
Sets the security passcode to 12345.
