Acquires the square waveform on the specified channel, calculates flatness error, performs an adjustment, and computes the calibration coefficients.

Refer to the calibration procedure for the oscilloscope you are calibrating for detailed instructions on the appropriate use of this VI.

Inputs/Outputs

  • cnclst.png external cal session in —

    external cal session in identifies your session. This parameter is obtained from the Open Ext Cal Session VI of this library.

  • cu32.png session —

  • cdbl.png actual frequency generated (Hz) —

    actual frequency generated (Hz) specifies the frequency of the square waveform applied to the channel under adjustment.

    Note This frequency can vary by as much as ±1% from the requested frequency as defined by the frequency to generate parameter of Compensated Attenuator Cal ConfigureCompensated Attenuator Cal Configure. If the variation exceeds ±1%, NI‑SCOPE generates as error.
  • cdbl.png actual amplitude generated (Vpk-pk) —

    actual amplitude generated (Vpk-pk) specifies the amplitude of the square waveform applied to the channel under adjustment.

    Note This frequency can vary by as much as ±1% from the requested frequency as defined by the amplitude to generate parameter of Compensated Attenuator Cal ConfigureCompensated Attenuator Cal Configure. If the variation exceeds ±1%, NI‑SCOPE generates as error.
  • cerrcodeclst.png error in —

    error in describes error conditions that occur before this node runs. This input provides standard error in functionality.

  • inclst.png external cal session out —

    external cal session out passes a reference to your session to the next VI.

  • iu32.png session —

  • ibool.png compensated attenuator cal complete —

    compensated attenuator cal complete indicates whether the compensated attenuator calibration is complete for the specified channel and the specified impedance.

  • ierrcodeclst.png error out —

    error out contains error information. This output provides standard error out functionality.
