smua.cal.adjustdate = adjustDate
Stores the date of the last calibration adjustment.
Stores the calibration date of the active calibration set.
Stores the calibration due date for the next calibration
(calDue of 0 indicates date not set).
Disables the commands that change calibration settings.
smua.cal.password = "newPassword"
Stores the password required to enable calibration
(newPassword will be the new password).
smua.cal.polarity = calPolarity
Controls which calibration constants are used for all
subsequent measurements:
smua.CAL_AUTO (automatic polarity).
smua.CAL_NEGATIVE (negative polarity).
smua.CAL_POSITIVE (positive polarity).
Loads a stored set of calibration constants:
smua.CALSET_NOMINAL (nominal constants).
smua.CALSET_FACTORY (factory constants).
smua.CALSET_DEFAULT (normal constants).
smua.CALSET_PREVIOUS (previous constants).
Stores the active calibration constants to nonvolatile
memory as the DEFAULT calibration set.
calstate = smua.cal.state
Returns the present calibration state:
smua.CALSTATE_CALIBRATING
smua.CALSTATE_LOCKED
smua.CALSTATE_UNLOCKED
smua.cal.unlock("password")
Unlocks calibration (default password: KI0026XX)
smua.measure.calibratei(range,
cp1Measured, cp1Reference,
cp2Measured, cp2Reference)
Adjusts the current measurement range*:
±range (measurement range to adjust).
cp1Measured (2601B-PULSE measured value for
point 1).
cp1Reference (reference measurement for point 1).
cp2Measured (2601B-PULSE measured value for
point 2).
cp2Reference (reference measurement for point 2).
smua.measure.calibratev(range,
cp1Measured, cp1Reference,
cp2Measured, cp2Reference)
Adjusts the voltage measurement range*:
±range (measurement range to adjust).
cp1Measured (2601B-PULSE measured value for
point 1).
cp1Reference (reference measurement for point 1).
cp2Measured (2601B-PULSE measured value for
point 2).
cp2Reference (reference measurement for point 2).
smua.source.calibratei(range,
cp1Expected, cp1Reference,
cp2Expected, cp2Reference)
Adjusts the current source range*:
±range (source range to adjust).
cp1Expected (source value programmed for point 1).
cp1Reference (reference measurement for point 1).
cp2Expected (source value programmed for point 2).
cp2Reference (reference measurement for point 2).
