Usage
calDate = smuX.cal.date
smuX.cal.date = calDate
The calibration date of the active calibration set
Source-measure unit (SMU) channel (for example, smua.cal.date applies to
SMU channel A)
Details
This attribute stores the calibration date that is associated with the active calibration set. The calibration date can
be read at any time but can only be assigned a new value when calibration has been enabled with the
smuX.cal.unlock() function. It is typically set to the date when the instrument was calibrated.
This attribute is stored with the active calibration set. If a different calibration set is restored, this attribute will
reflect the date stored with that set.
smuX.cal.date must be set to the date the calibration was done using the UTC time and date. The date is
stored as the number of seconds since UTC 12:00 am Jan 1, 1970.
Due to the internal storage format, smuX.cal.date is accurate to within a few minutes of the value set.
Example
smua.cal.date = os.time()
Sets calibration date for SMU channel A to the current time
set on the instrument.
