Abstract:An automatic calibration system for digital oscilloscopes is developed by using VISA and SCPI, based on the software of LabWindows/CVI. This system can calibrate the digital storage oscilloscopes quickly and automatically, no matter the interface of the oscilloscopes is GPIB,RS232 or LAN. And it can save the calibration data, judge the results, generate a calibration certificate automatically in the form of Microsoft Word by adopting the technology of ActiveX. The system can remove errors introduced by manual calibration and can support new kinds of digital oscilloscopes by adding new calibration files.
