difference between the feed reading (see
FEED <name> above) and the offset value:
CALC3 or CALC4 reading = feed reading - null offset
ACQuire
:CALCulate3:NULL:ACQuire Acquire channel 1 REL value
:CALCulate4:NULL:ACQuire Acquire channel 2 REL value
Description These commands automatically acquire the null offset values for channel 1
(CALC3) and channel 2 (CALC4). The next available reading will become the
offset value.
Enable and read relative result
STATe <b>
:CALCulate3:NULL:STATe <b> Control channel 1 REL
:CALCulate4:NULL:STATe <b> Control channel 2 REL
Parameters <b> = 1 or ON Enable REL
0 or OFF Disable REL
Query :STATe? Query state of REL
Description These commands are used to enable or disable the null or offset value for REL.
When enabled, the CALC3 or CALC4 reading will include the null offset value
(see OFFSet <n>). When disabled, the CALC3 or CALC4 reading will not include
the null offset.
DATA?
:CALCulate3:DATA? Read channel 1 REL result
:CALCulate4:DATA? Read channel 2 REL result
Description These query commands are used to read the CALC3 or CALC4 REL result. When
CALC3 or CALC4 is enabled (see STATe <b>), the returned value will include the
offset value (see OFFSet <n> and ACQuire).

Parameters <name> = C3C4 CALC3/CALC4
C4C3 CALC4/CALC3
Query :FORMat? Query selected RATIO calculation
Description This command selects the RATIO calculation mode. With C3C4 selected, the
CALC3 result (channel 1 REL) is divided by the CALC4 result (channel 2 REL).
With C4C3 selected, the CALC4 result is divided by the CALC3 result.
