Standard -109
"Missing parameter"
[Fewer parameters were recieved than required for the header]
Standard -112 "Program mnemonic too long"
[The header contains more than twelve characters (see IEEE 488.2,
7.6.1.4.1).]
Standard -113
"Undefined header"
[The header is syntactically correct, but it is undefined for this specific de-
vice; for example, *XYZ is not defined for any device.]
Standard -120
"Numeric data error"
[This error, as well as errors -121 through -129, are generated when pars-
ing a data element which appears to be numeric, including the nondecimal
numeric types. This error message is used if the device cannot detect a
more specific error.]
Standard -121
"Invalid character in number"
[An invalid character for the data type being parsed was encountered; for
example, an alpha in a decimal numeric]
Standard -123
"Exponent too large"
[The magnitude of the exponent was larger than 32000 (see IEEE
488.2,7.7.2.4.1).]
Standard -124
"Too many digits"
[The mantissa of a decimal numeric data element contained more than 255
digits excluding leading zeros (see IEEE 488.2, 7.7.2.4.1).]
Standard -128
"Numeric data not allowed"
[A legal numeric data element was received, but the device does not ac-
cept one in this position for the header.]
