Command Errors
−112 Program mnemonic too long — The header contains more that twelve
characters.
−113 Undefined header — The header is syntactically correct, but it is undefined
for this specific device; for example, *XYZ is not defined for any device.
−114 Header suffix out of range — The value of a numeric suffix attached to a
program mnemonic makes the header invalid.
−120 Numeric data error — This error, as well as errors −121 through −129, are

including the nondecimal numeric types. This particular error message
should be used if the device cannot detect a more specific error.

32000.
−124 Too many digits — The mantissa of a decimal numeric data element
contained more than 255 digits excluding leading zeros.
−128 Numeric data not allowed — A legal numeric data element was received,
but the device does not accept one in this position for the header.
−130 Suffix error — This error, as well as errors −131 through −139, are
generated when parsing a suffix. This particular error message should be
used if the device cannot detect a more specific error.
−131 Invalid suffix — The suffix does not follow the correct syntax, or the suffix is
inappropriate for this device.
−134 Suffix too long — The suffix contained more than 12 characters.
−138 Suffix not allowed — A suffix was encountered after a numeric element
which does not allow suffixes.
−140 Character data error — This error, as well as errors −141 through −149, are
