The return values from status can be:
• 0: OK.
• -10000 (INVAL_INST_ID): The specified instrument ID does not exist
• -10045 (KI82_NOT_IN_KCON): There is no CMTR defined in your system configuration
• -10090 (GPIB_ERROR_OCCURRED): A GPIB communications error occurred
• -10091 (GPIB_TIMEOUT): A timeout occurred during communications
• -10020 (COMP_FILE_ACCESS_ERR): There was an error accessing the specified cable
compensation file
• -10021 (COMP_FILE_NOT_EXIST): The specified compensation file does not exist
• -10100 (INVAL_PARAM): An invalid input parameter is specified
• -10101 (ARRAY_SIZE_TOO_SMALL): The specified value for CQS_ArrSize, QT_ArrSize, or
Delay_Time_ArrSize was too small for the number of steps in the sweep
• -10102 (ERROR_PARSING): There was an error parsing the response.
• -10104 (USER_CANCEL): The user canceled the correction procedure.
Procedure
1. If set, you are prompted to open the circuit so that an offset capacitance measurement can be
made.
2. If a cable compensation file is specified, the compensation information in that file for the selected
range and frequency will be loaded. If not, instrument default compensation is used.
3. A Q/T sweep is performed.
