CALibrate:LEVel P1|P2|P3|P4|P5
Advances to the next calibration point. P1 is the first level; P2 is the second, and so on.
Some calibration steps may generate very high voltages (such as +155 VAC, +310 VAC,
and ±380 VDC). This procedure should only be performed by people with appropriate
training, always exercising appropriate caution.

Select the first calibration point: CAL:LEV P1
The
CALibrate:STATe
must be ON to execute this command.
Some calibration sequences may require some settling time after sending CAL:LEV but before reading
the data from the DVM and sending CAL:DATA.
AC calibration is performed at 55 Hz for P1 and P2, and higher frequency for P3, P4, and P5.
The calibration steps for each item are shown below:
