The Utilities button opens the Utilities window (Figure 5-12).
Calibration Data (hex format) may be archived and restored using the Dump and Restore but-
tons, respectively. When the Dump button is clicked, the program will prompt the user for a
location and file name for all three calibration locations (see KLR User Manual). The default file
names and locations may be altered by the user. In each case the user may elect not to save
one or more calibration locations by clicking the Cancel button.

To restore the contents of the Working location to a previously dumped set of values, enter the
calibration password in the box below the Restore button and then click the button. If the correct
password is entered, the program will open a dialog box permitting the user to select from previ-
ously saved calibration data sets. Highlight the desired replacement calibration data and click
Select to replace the Working calibration; click Cancel to exit without changing the Working cal-
ibration.
The Hardware Test button tests the validity of system parameters (e.g., CRC).
The Output Test button verifies basic performance by first testing maximum voltage output,
then testing minimum voltage output. Note that this test must be performed at no load (open cir-
cuit at output power terminals). When Output Test is running, the button changes to Running
(see Figure 5-12.); do not click the button while the test is running.

The Reset button resets the unit to the power up defaults: output voltage set to zero, current set
to minimum current, and output off.
The QUIT button on the Main panel (Figure 5-5) is used to exit the sample VXI plug&play appli-
cation.
