## Command Syntax

    :CALibrate:PROBe:CHANnelN:STARt

Where N identifies a specific channel in the form "<connection1-8>_<ch1-8>". With connection 1, the connection number part (that is, "1_") is optional, and you can simply use the channel number "<ch1-8>". For example, connection 4 channel 2 is `CHANnel4_2`.

## Description

On the indicated channel, runs all enabled calibrations in the order: Vertical, Skew, AC Response.

To enable or disable all probe calibrations, see `:CALibrate:PROBe:CHANnel:ENABled`.

To enable or disable individual probe calibrations, see `:CALibrate:PROBe:CHANnel:VERTical:ENABled`, `:CALibrate:PROBe:CHANnel:SKEW:ENABled`.

The `*OPC (Operation Complete)` query should be used to detect when a portion of the calibration has completed.

Use the `:CALibrate:CONTinue` command to dismiss dialog boxes that are displayed during a calibration.
