Query Syntax

:CALibrate:SLOTN:PTIMebase:STATus:DETails?

{N} identifies a specific module by slot and must be selected from {1:8}. For a module that occupies multiple slots, use the module's left-most slot number to identify the module. For two-slot modules, the slot number would be 1 or 3. For four-slot modules, like the 86108B, the slot number would be 1.

Description

Queries a string of status details of an 86107A, 86108A, or 86108B module's precision timebase calibration for the indicated slot. The following is an example of a typical returned string:

Time of last Calibration: 10/23/2012 11:52:00,Elapsed Calibration Time: 3 hours 2 minutes,Temperature Change: 1.24 C"

If a calibration is recommended, the following shows an example of the string:

"Elapsed cal time has exceeded 10 hours.,Time of last Calibration: 10/08/2012 11:13:37,Elapsed Calibration Time: 9 days,Temperature Change: -4.32 C"

If a calibration has not yet been performed, the following string is returned:

"This calibration has never been performed in this instrument."

Example Returned Status String

"Requires Clock Recovery Calibration,Time of last Calibration: 03/14/2012 11:52:00,Elapsed Calibration Time: 75 hours 2 minutes,Temperature Change: 3.40 C"

Requires FlexDCA revision A.01.70 and above.

Example Returned Status String

"Precision Timebase Calibration has not been performed since the last Vertical Calibration,Requires Precision Timebase Calibration,Time of last Calibration: 03/01/2012 12:04:00,Elapsed Calibration Time: 56 hours 49 minutes,Temperature Change: 6.20 C"
