CALibration:COUNt?
Description Retrieves the number of times Meter points have been calibrated. Read this
value just after receiving the Meter to obtain a starting value. This setting
is stored in non-volatile memory.
Note
This value increments once for each calibration point. A complete
calibration will increment this value many times. The maximum count is
4,294,967,295, at which point the next calibration causes this value to reset
to zero.
Examples CAL:COUN? Retrieves the number of times points have been
calibrated.
CALibration:RECord
Description Stores the calibration values.
Example CAL:REC Stores all of the Meter’s changed calibration
values.
CALibration:SECure:CODE <new code >
Description Sets a new calibration password. Before entering a new code, you must
first enter the old password using the CAL:SEC:STAT command. The
Meter has a password of FLUKE884X when shipped from the factory.
Parameters <new code> = Up to 12 characters of capital letters and
numerials (A-Z, 0-9).
Example CAL:SEC:CODE 12B Sets the new calibration password to 12B.
The password cannot be recalled, but the password can be reset to the factory default
without returning the Meter for service.

the password to FLUKE884X.
CALibration:SECure:STATe(?) <n>,<code >
Description Secure or unsecure the Meter for calibration. This setting is stored in non-
volatile memory.
Parameters <n> = ON or 1 Secures the Meter from calibration.
OFF or 0 Unsecures the Meter for calibration.
<code> = Up to 12 character string.
Example CAL:SEC:STAT OFF 12B Unsecures the Meter for calibration when the
