Properties
| Name | Description |
|---|---|
| SelfCalibrationPersistence | Specifies whether the values calculated during self-calibration should be written to hardware to be used until the next self-calibration or only used until the ResetDevice method is called or the machine is powered down. This property affects the behavior of the SelfCalibrate method. If you set this property to KeepInMemory, the values calculated by the DCPowerSelfCalibration method are used in the existing session, as well as in all further sessions until you call the ResetDevice method or restart the machine. When you set this property to WriteToEeprom, the values calculated by the DCPowerSelfCalibration method are written to hardware and used in the existing session and in all subsequent sessions until another call to the DCPowerSelfCalibration method is made. |

| GetSelfCalibrationLastTemperature() | Returns the onboard temperature of the instrument, in degrees Celsius, during the oldest successful self-calibration from among the channels in the session. |
| SelfCalibrate(string) | Performs a self-calibration upon the specified channel(s). |
