5A-23. Retrieving Calibration Constants
If a calibration error is suspected, the stored constant can be retrieved and verified over
the computer interface. Acceptable calibration constants for each function and range are
listed in Table 5A-9. Retrieve the constant with the following command:
CAL_CONST? xx (where xx denotes the calibration constant number)
The entire calibration of the Hydra Databucket can be retrieved from the instrument in
tabular form by using the following command:
EEM_LIST?
The instrument response from this command shows the currently used FLASH memory
block and page numbers, and each calibration constant in hexadecimal and floating point
with a description of what function and range each calibration constant is used on. The
following is a sample of a typical EEM_LIST? response:

5A-24. Replacing the Flash Memory (A1U14 and A1U16)
The FLASH Memory provides nonvolatile storage for the instrument serial number, the
instrument firmware, and all calibration information. If the "boot" firmware in FLASH
memory has been determined to be faulty, A1U14 and A1U16 must both be replaced.
Many other problems may be corrected by loading new instrument firmware in the
instrument (see the section entitled "Updating the 2635A Instrument Firmware" in
Section 4 of this manual), or recalibrating the instrument.
If the FLASH Memories must be replaced during repair, the instrument must be
recalibrated. The new FLASH Memory can be programmed with the 7-digit serial
number found on the rear panel of the instrument or any 7-digit identifier of your
choosing. Note that the serial number is not programmed prior to shipment from the
factory.
