4.8.4 Alignments
Displays functions that control the automatic alignment of the instrument and load
default values for the alignment system.
NOTE Most CALibration commands execute in the background, permitting other
SCPI commands to be processed concurrently. If a measurement command is
sent right after a CALibration command, there can be interaction between
background alignments and the measurement. The *WAI command should be
issued after any CALibration command and before the measurement
command. Note that sending the query form of a CAL? command will
automatically hold off any following commands until the query value is
returned.
Bit 0 (CALibration) must be set to 1 in the STATus:OPERation:ENABle
register to ensure that the *WAI command waits for calibration to complete.
This is the factory preset and *RST setting.
