.SH NAME
\fBcomedi_calibrate\fR - COMEDI calibration utility
.SH SYNOPSIS
\fBcomedi_calibrate\fR [-f /dev/comediN]
.br
.SH DESCRIPTION
\fBcomedi_calibrate\fR is used to autocalibrate \fBcomedi\fR
devices. Some \fBcomedi\fR devices have the ability to
measure internal stable voltage references and control
gains and offsets using programmable DACs. On these devices,
\fBcomedi_calibrate\fR adjusts the programmable calibration
DACs so that the measured value of reference voltages fall
within acceptable limits.
\fBComedi_calibrate\fR prints a lot of debugging information
as it runs.
.SH LIMITATIONS
\fBComedi_calibrate\fR only works on boards that it understands.
For boards that are known to have autocalibration ability,
but are not currently supported, \fBcomedi_calibrate\fR will
output basic debugging information that is useful for
the author to add support for your device. Please send this
output to him.
.SH OPTIONS
\fBcomedi_calibrate\fR recognizes the following options:
\fB-f /dev/comediN\fR perform calibration on device \fB/dev/comediN\fR
