Measures the input voltage on the specified channel, compares it with the actual voltage generated, 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.

Supported Devices:

  • PXIe-5110

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 voltage generated (V) —

    actual voltage generated (V) specifies the voltage applied to the channel under adjustment.

    Note This voltage can vary by as much as ±5% from the requested voltage as defined by the voltage to generate parameter of DC Reference Cal ConfigureDC Reference Cal Configure. If the variation exceeds ±5%, 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 dc reference cal complete —

    dc reference cal complete indicates whether the DC reference 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.
