:CALibrate Connection Commands

Command Syntax

:CALibrate:CONNectionN:STARt

Where N identifies a specific instrument by connection number and must be selected from {1:8}. For an instrument that occupies multiple connections, use the instrument's left-most connection number to identify the instrument. For two-connection instruments, the connection number would be 1 or 3. For four-connection instruments, the connection number would be 1.

Description

Starts all enabled vertical, precision timebase, and clock recovery calibrations for the indicated connection number (instrument), if supported. Most instruments do not support all of these calibrations. 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.

To enable the different calibrations, use the following commands:

Two example C#.NET programs are provided that show how to perform a calibration. One example demonstrates controlling program timing using SRQ events and registers. The other example demonstrates timing using long timeouts. Look in the oscilloscope (or PC) installation folder:
