Command/Query
The AUTO CALIBRATE command is used to enable or disable
automatic calibration of the instrument. At power-up, auto-cali-
bration is turned ON, i.e. all input channels are periodically
calibrated for the current input amplifier and time-base settings.
The automatic calibration may be disabled by issuing the com-
mand ACAL OFF. Whenever it is convenient, a *CAL? query
may be issued to fully calibrate the oscilloscope. When the oscillo-
scope is returned to local control, the periodic calibrations will be
resumed.
The response to the AUTO CALIBRATE? query indicates
whether auto-calibration is enabled.
Auto_CALibrate <state>
<state> := {ON, OFF}
Auto_CALibrate?
Auto_CALibrate <state>
The following instruction disables auto-calibration.
CMD$="ACAL OFF": CALL IBWRT(SCOPE%,CMD$)
*CAL?
