Appendix B: Error Messages Model 3390 Arbitrary Waveform Generator User’s Manual
781 Not enough memory to store new
arb waveform; bad sectors
Storage hardware failure. New waveforms cannot be
saved.
782 Cannot overwrite a built-in
waveform
The five built-in waveform names (EXP_RISE,
EXP_FALL, NEG_RAMP, SINC, and CARDIAC) are
reserved and cannot be used with
DATA:COPY
command.
784 Name of source arb waveform for
copy must be VOLATILE
When using the DATA:COPY command, the chosen
data source must be the volatile one.
785 Specified arb waveform does not
exist
Before using the DATA:COPY command to copy
from the volatile memory, download the waveform to
it using the
DATA VOLATILE or DATA:DAC
VOLATILE
command.
786 Not able to delete a built-in
arb waveform
Deleting the built-in waveform is not allowed.
787 Not able to delete the
currently selected active arb wave-
form
Deleting the waveform that is currently active is not
allowed.
788 Cannot copy to VOLATILE arb
waveform
You can only use DATA:COPY command to copy
from volatile memory. You cannot copy to volatile
memory.
800 Block length must be even
The binary data is represented as 16-bit integers. It is
sent in groups of two bytes (
DATA:DAC
VOLATILE
command).
810 State has not been stored
The storage location specified in the *RCL
command was never used in previous *SAV
commands. You cannot recall instrument state from
an empty storage location.
