Note 1: After this command is sent, a query response is automatically
generated reflecting the present termination setting.
Note 2: Setting is retained when power is cycled.
Note 3: Selection 0 must be used for compatibility with FM7004A and
VM7000.

3.7.1.2 Error Code Responses

a serial input. The general format is similar to other responses. When an error has been recognized and an
error code has been generated, the probe kit will generally check and then clear its input buffer until a new
start character is received. Specific responses are as listed below. Recommended actions are shown in
brackets [ ]. <termination> depends on the selected response termination characters (1 or 2 characters).
Format: Ex where x = a….z
Indicates that corrupted data has been recognized by the probe kit,
and that no further processing is to be done on this data string.
Overflow, command has been lost due to probe failure to process
some input character in time and the input character has been lost.
[Either there is a problem with the probe kit, or data is coming too
fast and this advises that host should send characters with more
time between characters.]
format error
Start character received, but no stop character <CR> received
within appr
oximately 5 seconds of a start character, and probe
input buffer has been cleared. The long time is to allow for a
command to be entered by an operator using a keyboard. [Host
should retransmit the previous command and insure that future
