Agilent E4418B User’s Guide 4-9
-241 Hardware missing
The power meter is unable to execute the command because either no
power sensor is connected or it expects an Agilent E-series power
sensor and one is not connected.
-310 System error;Dty Cyc may impair accuracy with ECP sensor
This indicates that the sensor connected is for use with CW signals
only.
-310 System error;Sensor EEPROM Read Failed - critical data not
found or unreadable
This indicates a failure with your Agilent E-series power sensor. Refer
to your power sensor manual for details on returning it for repair.
-310 System error;Sensor EEPROM Read Completed OK but
optional data block(s) not found or unreadable
This indicates a failure with your Agilent E-series power sensor. Refer
to your power sensor manual for details on returning it for repair.
-310 System error;Sensor EEPROM Read Failed - unknown
EEPROM table format
This indicates a failure with your Agilent E-series power sensor. Refer
to your power sensor manual for details on returning it for repair.
-310 System error;Sensor EEPROM < > data not found or unreadable
Where < > refers to the sensor data block covered, for example,
Linearity, Temp - Comp (temperature compensation).
This indicates a failure with your Agilent E-series power sensor. Refer
to your power sensor manual for details on returning it for repair.
-310 System error;Option 001 Battery charger fault
The power meter is connected to an ac power source, the battery is not
fully charged and it is not charging.
-310 System error;Sensors connected to both front and rear inputs.
You cannot connect two power sensors to the one channel input. In this
instance the power meter detects power sensors connected to both it’s
front and rear channel inputs.
-321 Out of memory
The power meter required more memory than was available to run an
internal operation.
