Table B-2 Execution Error List
Error Message Description
Data out of range
Indicates that a legal program data element was parsed but could
not be executed because the interpreted value was outside the
legal range as defined by the device (see IEEE 488.2, 11.5.1.1.5)
Illegal parameter value
Used where the exact value, from a list of possible values, was
expected.
Out of memory
Used when the Autosequence programming buffer is full.
Device-Specific Error List
An error in the range [-399, 300] or [1, 32767] indicates that the
instrument has detected an error which is not a command error, a query
error, or an execution error; some device operations did not properly
complete, possibly due to an abnormal hardware or firmware condition.
These codes are also used for self-test response errors. The occurrence
of any error in the class causes the device-specific error bit (bit 3) in the
Event Status Register to be set.
Table B-3 Device-Specific Error List
Error Message Description
Device-specific error. Indicates that the power supply could not
complete the operation due to some condition of the power
supply.
Configuration Memory Lost
Queue Overflow A specific code entered into the queue in lieu of
the code that caused the error. This code indicates that there is no
room in the queue and an error occurred but was not recorded.
Communication error
This is the generic communication error for devices.

port overflows with data caused by improper or nonexistent
pacing.
