1.3. CALibration Subsystem
1.3.1. CALibrate:IDN
This command updates the power supply’s identification string for the power supply model. The CAL:IDN string can have up to 100 characters. Before this command can be used, a password must be validated by CAL:PASS. Typically, this command is for Magna-Power Electronics use only.
- Command Syntax:
CALibrate:IDN <string>- Parameters:
Company Name, Power Supply Model, Serial Number
- Example:
CAL:IDN Magna-Power Electronics Inc., <model>, S/N: 1161-5225- Query Syntax:
CAL:IDN?- Return Param:
<string>
- Related Commands:
*IDN
1.3.2. CALibrate:PASS
This command protects against system calibration corruption and initiates the calibration sequence.
- Command Syntax:
CAL:PASS <NR1>- Examples:
CALIBRATE:PASSWORD 1234,CAL:PASS 1234
1.3.3. CALibrate:POT
This command sets the value for the specified potentiometer. The variable specifies the potentiometer to be adjusted, 1 thru 5, and the second variable specifies the potentiometer setting, 0 through 255.
- Command Syntax:
CALibrate:POT <NR1>,<NR2>- Examples:
CALIBRATE:POT 1,123,CAL:POT 5,11- Query Syntax:
CALibrate:POT?- Return Param:
<NR1>
1.3.4. CALibrate:SCALe:VOLTage
This command sets the voltage scale factor for the power supply.

CALIBRATE:SCALE:VOLTAGE 16.0,CAL:SCAL:VOLT 16.0- Query Syntax:
CALibrate:SCALe:VOLTage?- Return Param:
<NR3>
1.3.5. CALibrate:SCALe:CURRent
This command sets the current scale factor for the power supply.
- Command Syntax:
CALibrate:SCALe:CURRent <NRf>- Examples:
CALIBRATE:SCALE:CURRENT 900.0,CAL:SCAL:CURR 900.0- Query Syntax:
CALibrate:SCALe:CURRent?- Return Param:

1.3.6. CALibrate:SCALe:INPut
This command sets the full scale external programming inputs for voltage, current, over voltage trip, and over current trip. The scaling factor for the programming inputs must match the scaling factor set with hardware on the control board.
- Command Syntax:
CALibrate:SCALe:INPut <NRf>- Examples:
CALIBRATE:SCALE:INPUT 10.0,CAL:SCAL:INP 10.0- Query Syntax:
CALibrate:SCALe:INPut?- Return Param:
<NR3>
1.3.7. CALibrate:DEFaults
This command sets the Calibration potentiometers to the factory defaults.
- Command Syntax:
CALibrate:DEFaults- Examples:
CALibrate:DEFaults,CAL:DEF
1.3.8. CALibrate:STOP
This command terminates the calibration subsystem.
- Command Syntax:
CALibrate:STOP- Examples:
CALibrate:STOP,CAL:STOP
