Error Codes
270 Search source channel must be set.
Before triggering the search measurement or sending the
LSSV, LSSI,
BSSV, or BSSI command to set the synchronous search source, send
the LSV, LSI, BSV, or BSI command to set the primary search source.
271 Search monitor channel must be set.
Before triggering the search measurement, send the LGV, LGI, BGV, or
BGI command
to set the search monitor channel.
273 Search and sync output modes must be the same.
The primary search source channel and the synchronous source channel
must be
different, and they must be set to the same output mode
(voltage or current).
274 Search sync source is overflow.
Set the search sources so that the same output range is set to both
primary and synchrono
us search sources.
275 Search target must be compliance value or less.
The search target value must be less than or
equal to the compliance
value of the search monitor channel. Correct the search target value or
the compliance value.
276 Start and stop must be different.
Set different values for the search start and stop values.
277 Step must be output resolution or more.
Set the search step value to the output resolution or more.
278 Search and sync channels must be different.
Set the search source and the synchronous source to different channels.
279 Search monitor mode must be compliance side.
Send the LGI/BGI command to set the vo
ltage source search m
onitor
channel, or send the LGV/BGV command to set the current source
search monitor channel.
280 Send WDCV to set CV sweep source.
Before triggering the multi frequency CV measurement, send the
WDCV command
to set the DC voltage sweep source.
281 Send PDCV to set CV pulse source.
