Calibration Command Group
The calibration commands provide information about the current state
of instrument calibration and allow you to initiate internal signal path
calibration (SPC). Commands that are specific to factory calibration are
not described in this manual; however, they are described in the service
manual (located on your TDS5000B Product Software CD--ROM in
PDF format). You can also order a printed copy (see Recommended
Accessories in the online help for the instrument).

CALibrate:INTERNal:STATus? Returns the current status of the inter-
nal siganl path calibration.
CALibrate:PROBEstate:CH<x>? Returns the probe calibration status for
the probe of the selected channel

Cursor Command Group
Use the commands in the Cursor Command Group to control the cursor
display and readout. You can use these commands to control the setups
for cursor 1 and cursor 2, such as waveform source, cursor position, and
cursor color.
You can also use the commands to select one of the following cursor functions:
H Off. Shuts off the display of all cursors.
H Vertical Bars. Displays vertical bar cursors, which provide
traditional horizontal unit readouts for Cursor 1 (bar1), Cursor 2
(bar2), the delta between them, and 1/delta (results in frequency
when the horizontal unit is time).
H Horizontal Bars. Displays horizontal bar cursors, which provide
traditional vertical unit readouts for Cursor 1 (bar1), Cursor 2
(bar2), and the delta between them.
