As your DMM isn't reporting any issues during the power-on self test that means the CAL RAM battery is still good. If the battery fails the DMM will revert to default calibration factors.

Is there any way to back up this data using an HP-41?

Translate the BASIC program to FOCAL. Sorry, but that's not my area of expertise.
