In this case the value displayed at the top of the screen is the user value.
Remote Command
:CALibration:FREQuency:REFerence:MODE CALibrated | USER
:CALibration:FREQuency:REFerence:MODE?
Example
:CAL:FREQ:REF:MODE CAL
Notes If the value of the timebase is changed the alignment system automatically performs an alignment or
alerts that an alignment is due
Dependencies Not available in UXM
Preset Unaffected by Preset, but set to CALibrated by Restore Defaults >"Alignments" on page 2100
