CALibration?
CALibration?
Syntax
CALibration?
Description
This command performs a calibration of the internal DMM or DAC channel on the 34907A multifunction module using the specified calibration value (CALibration:VALue command). Before you can calibrate the instrument, you must unsecure it by entering the correct security code.
For a more detailed discussion of the calibration procedures, see the Keysight 34970A/34972A Service Guide. Please refer to that guide before attempting to calibrate the instrument as improper use of the CALibration commands can adversely affect the accuracy and reliability of the instrument.
Remarks
- If a calibration fails, the instrument returns 1 and generates an error message. For a complete listing of the error messages related to calibration failures, see SCPI Error Messages.
- The internal DMM is an optional assembly for the Keysight 34970A/34972A. The instrument generates an error with this command if the internal DMM is disabled (see INSTrument:DMM command) or not installed in the mainframe.
- This command increments the calibration count by one count for the DMM and DAC channels (see CALibration:COUNt? command).
Return Format
The query returns 0 (calibration passed) or 1 (calibration failed).
