Zcal Commands

Zcal displays the stored and reference calibration information for each pulse width, then prompts you to enter a command.

The number of pulse widths may vary, depending on your system.

For a large number of pulse widths, use a large width terminal window.

All dates shown are in local time as configured on your computer.
