DIAGnostic
DIAGnostic:CALibration:TARE[:OTDetect]:MODE
DIAGnostic:CALibration:TARE[:OTDetect]:MODE <mode> sets whether Open
Transducer Detect current will be turned off or left on (the default mode) during the
CAL:TARE operation.
Parameters
Comments •
When <mode> is set to 0 (the *RST Default), channels are tare calibrated with
their OTD current off. When <mode> is 1, channels that have their OTD current
on (DIAGnostic:OTDetect ON,(@<ch_list>)) are tare calibrated with their
OTD current left on.
•
By default (*RST) the CALibration:TARE? command will calibrate all
channels with the OTD circuitry disabled. This is done for two reasons.
First, most users do not leave OTD enabled while taking readings; and second,
the CALibration:TARE? operation takes much longer with OTD enabled.
However, for users who intend to take readings with OTD enabled, setting
DIAG:CAL:TARE:OTD:MODE to 1, will force the CAL:TARE? command to
perform calibration with OTD enabled on channels so specified by the user with
the DIAG:OTD command.

DIAGnostic:CALibration:TARE[:OTDetect]:MODE?
DIAGnostic:CALibration:TARE[:OTDetect]:MODE? returns the currently set
mode for controlling Open Transducer Detect current while performing CAL:TARE?
operation.
Comments •
Returns a 0 when OTD current will be turned off during CAL:TARE?. Returns
1 when OTD current will be left on during CAL:TARE? operation. The data
type is int16.
