Query Syntax

:CALibrate:DARK:CHANnel{1:8}{A|B|C|D}:STATus:TIME?

Where the required specifier {1:8}{A|B|C|D} identifies a channel by its module slot number and channel letter. For example, channel 3C (CHANnel3C).

The channel specifier will fail if it does not include a slot number. If instead the suffix's channel letter is missing, the command defaults to letter A. As a result, the best practice is to always explicitly specify the channel by including both the module slot number and channel letter.

Description

Queries the date and time when the last dark calibration on the indicated channel was performed. If a calibration has not yet been performed, an empty string is returned. Use the :DARK:CHANnelN:STARt command to start a dark calibration.

Example Returned Status String

"08/18/2011 08:14:02"

Example Command
