:SAVE
(:CALibration:PROTected:CARD1:SAVE)
Purpose To save calibration constants in card EEROM after the calibration
procedure.
Format :cal:prot:card1:save
Parameter None
Description The :SAVE command stores calculated calibration constants derived dur-
ing Model 7700 calibration in card EEROM. (EEROM is non-volatile mem-
ory.) Calibration constants will be retained indefinitely once saved.
Generally, :SAVE is sent after all other calibration steps (except for
:LOCK).
NOTE Card calibration will be only temporary unless the :SAVE command is sent to per-
manently store calibration constants.
Example :CAL:PROT:CARD1:SAVE Save card calibration constants.
:STEP0
(:CALibration:PROTected:CARD1:STEP0)
Purpose To perform Model 7700 calibration.
Format :cal:prot:card1:step0 <temp>
Parameter <temp> = Cold calibration temperature (˚C)
Description :STEP0 performs temperature sensor calibration of the Model 7700. The
card must be allowed to cool down to ambient temperature before calibra-
tion, and the cold temperature of the card must be measured and sent as the
<temp> parameter during calibration.
NOTE Before calibrating the Model 7700, make sure that power has been removed from the
card for at least two hours to allow card circuitry to cool down. After turning on the
power during the calibration procedure, complete the procedure as quickly as possi-
ble to minimize card heating that could affect calibration accuracy.
Example :CAL:PROT:CARD1:STEP0 23 Perform 7700 calibration.
