Calibration
• Note and record the multimeter reading.
• Send the source and sense commands using the multimeter reading as the parameter.
For example:
:CAL:PROT:SOUR 1.997
:CAL:PROT:SENS 1.997
• Send the SOUR:VOLT 0.0 command to set the source voltage to 0V.
• Note and record the multimeter reading.
• Send the :CAL:PROT:SOUR command using the multimeter reading as the command
parameter. For example:
:CAL:PROT:SOUR -1.02E-3
