Agilent Technologies Model 6654A: 3148A-00391 Manuale Utente

 You can calibrate the power supply by using SCPI commands within your controller programming statements. Be sure you
are familiar with calibration from the front panel before you calibrate from a controller. The SCPI calibration commands are
related to the front panel calibration controls as follows:
 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

   

 

   

 

 A sample calibration program is given at the end of this appendix. If your system is Agilent BASIC, you can use the
program with very little modification. Otherwise, use it as a guide for writing your own program.
 

 The calibration commands are listed in alphabetical order. The format for each command follows that shown in "Chapter 3 -
Language Dictionary" of the Programming Guide. Calibration error messages that can occur during GPIB calibration are
shown within this guide (Table A-3 in Appendix A - Calibration).
 
 CAL:CURR
 
 This command is used to calibrate the output current. The command enters current value that you obtain from an external
meter. (If you are entering the current value, allow time for the DVM to stabilize.) You must first select a calibration level
(CAL:CURR:LEV) for the value being entered. Two successive values (one for each end of the calibration range) must be
selected and entered. The power supply then computes new current calibration constants. These constants are not stored in
nonvolatile memory until saved with the CAL:SAVE command.

 CAL: CURR 32 . 33 A  CAL: CURR: DATA 5 . 00

 (None)

 
 CAL:CURR:LEV
 
 This command sets the power supply to a calibration point that is then entered with CAL:CURR[:DATA]. During
calibration, two points must be entered and the low-end point (MIN) must be selected and entered first.
