Query Syntax

:CALibrate:MODule:VERTical:STATus? "<DCA-M-name>" [<input-channel>]

Where <DCA-M-module-name> is the name that identifies the DCA-M module on the Hardware Diagram. The name is the combination of the <model number>-<serial number>. For example, "N1092B-US12345678".

Optional parameter <input-channel> is a single DCA-M input channel (A, B, C, or D depending on N1092 model). If this parameter is missing, the status will be for the overall vertical calibration.

Description

Queries the vertical calibration status of a N109x-series DCA-M module. If the optional channel argument is provided, the status of the specified optical channel is returned. Notice that the channel is identified by a single channel letter (for example, A, B, C, or D) and does not include a module slot number.

One of the following response strings is returned:

"CALIBRATED"
The module (or module input channel) does not require a calibration.
"UNCALIBRATED"
The module (or module input channel) requires a calibration.

To return the name's of all DCA-M modules recognized by FlexOTO, send the :CONFigure:MODule:ALL? query. Use the :CONFigure:MODule:ACTive command to determine which of the modules are placed on the Hardware Diagram.

Use the child queries listed in the following table to return details about the current calibration.
