RESTORING PREVIOUS CALIBRATION VALUES

Each time the unit is calibrated, the previous calibration values are retained in non-volatile
memory. If it is determined that a new calibration is erroneous, the previous calibration values
can be restored.

mand entry status.

mand entry status.

SETTING FACTORY CALIBRATION VALUES

After a unit has been repaired, is operating correctly, and has been calibrated, the new calibra-
tion values should be saved as the new factory calibration values. This can only be accom-
plished via the GPIB interface.

To save the current calibration values to the non-volatile RAM as factory default values, send
the following strings via the GPIB interface:

SYSTEM:PASS:CENABLE xxxx

DIAG:NEW_FACTORY_CAL

where xxxx = the current password of the power supply.

CALIBRATION STORAGE

The ABC maintains the calibration tables in Flash Memory until a PACK is executed. There are
six calibration areas maintained in Flash Memory: Working, Prior, Oldest, Factory, Master, and
First.

The calibration can be copied to another area using the CAL:COPY command. The syntax is as
follows: CAL:COPY (source) (destination) where (source) and (destination) refer to the areas of
Flash memory where calibration data is stored, designated as: WORKing, PRIor, OLDest, FAC-
Tory, MASTer, FIRst. Source refers to the calibration area that is to be copied, destination to the
area that the calibration will be copied into.
