Appendix error codes
While error codes reported by the software are rather cryptic, careful
reading of their descriptions may help you debug your program. Here
we have listed the appropriate error codes and their descriptions.
• Errors are retrieved in first- in- first- out (FIFO) order.
• Errors are cleared as you read them.
• If to many errors occurred, the last error stored in the queue (the
most recent error) is replaced with –350,"Error queue
overflow". No additional errors are stored until you remove
errors from the queue. If no errors have occurred when you read
the error queue, the instrument responds with +0,"No error".
• SYSTem:ERRor? will read and clear one error from the queue.
Below are the SCPI error messages:
• 0000, "No error",
• –100, "Command error",
• –101, "Invalid character",
• –102, "Syntax error",
• –103, "Invalid separator",
• –104, "Data type error",
• –108, "Parameter not allowed",
• –109, "Missing parameter",
• –110, "Command header error",
• –111, "Header separator error",
• –112, "Program mnemonic too long",
• –113, "Undefined header",
• –114, "Header suffix out of range",
• –120, "Numeric data error",
• –121, "Invalid character in number",
