Environment/Versions STR4730 / 4750 / 4760 / 4780 / 4790 Answer To turn off channels during a calibration use command = CAL0 (see FAQ13846).   DACS is a command used during the power calibration procedure (see DCS0002C section 3.5). It is not recommeded for customer use at any other time. DACS0 does not turn a channel off. It just sets the signal level to 'off' The channel is still running You will see this on the simulator LCD screen   Never send the DACS0 command after you’ve finished setting the wanted target power or after you’ve run the DACT utility. This will invalidate the power calibration DACS0 will program the simulator channel to always have an 'off' signal level
