Calibration Message
You can use the calibration message feature to record calibration
information about your multimeter. For example, you can store such
information as the last calibration date, the next calibration due date,
the multimeter’s serial number, or even the name and phone number of
the person to contact for a new calibration.
You can record information in the calibration message only from the
remote interface. However, you can read the message from either the
front-panel menu or the remote interface.
• The calibration message may contain up to 40 characters. However,
the multimeter can display only 12 characters of the message on the
front panel (additional characters are truncated).
• The calibration message is stored in non-volatile memory, and
does not change when power has been off or after a remote
interface reset.
• Front-Panel Operation:
4: MESSAGE (CAL MENU) read the cal message
• Remote Interface Operation:

quoted string> store the cal message
The following command string shows how to store a calibration message.
