:CALibrate:CONNection:STATus?
Query Syntax
:CALibrate:CONNectionN:STATus?
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
Queries the overall calibration status for the indicated connection number. If a vertical, precision timebase, or clock recovery calibration is needed, the instrument at the connection number is considered to be uncalibrated.
One of the following response strings is returned:
- "CALIBRATED"
- The calibrations are valid.
- "UNCALIBRATED"
- At least one calibration is needed.
- ""
- An empty string is returned if the hardware for the indicated connection number does not exist. An -241,"Hardware missing" error is returned by the
:SYSTem:ERRor:NEXT?command.
To check the status of the individual calibrations, use the :CALibrate:CONNection:VERTical:STATus? query.
Use the child queries listed in the following table to return details about the current calibration.
