Calibration Commands
E3632A User’s Guide 103
CALibration:CURRent:LEVel
{MINimum|MIDdle|MAXimum}
This command can only be used after calibration is
unsecured and the output state is ON. It sets the power
supply to a calibration point that is entered with the
CAL:CURR command. During calibration, three points must
be entered and the low- end point (MIN) must be selected
and entered first.
CALibration:CURRent:PROTection
This command calibrates the overcurrent protection circuit
of the power supply. It takes about seven seconds to execute
the command. The calibration must be unsecured and the
output shorted before calibrating the overcurrent protection.
The power supply automatically performs the calibration and
stores the new overcurrent constant in non- volatile memory.
Notice that current calibration precedes before sending this
command.
CALibration:DAC:ERRor
This command corrects the differential nonlinearity error of
the internal DAC without an external meter. You must send
this command before calibrating the voltage. It takes about
30 seconds to execute the command.
CALibration:SECure:CODE <new code>
This command enters a new security code. To change the
security code, first unsecure the power supply using the old
security code. Then, enter the new code. The calibration
code may contain up to 12 characters over the remote
interface but the first character must always be a letter.
CALibration:SECure:STATe {OFF|ON},<code>
This command unsecures or secures the power supply for
calibration. The calibration code may contain up to 12
characters over the remote interface.
