For totalizer channels, a calibration sequence includes these steps:
1. Calibrate 0 V totalizer threshold
2. Calibrate 1.5 V totalizer threshold
You must save the calibration after calibrating and before locking. Use
channel.calibration.save() to save the calibration.
All calibration progress is lost if the calibration data is not saved before you lock the channel.
After calibration, the channel must be locked using channel.calibration.lock().

channel.calibration.lock() (on page 11-40)
channel.calibration.save() (on page 11-41)
channel.calibration.unlock() (on page 11-44)
