Troubleshooting
Command Error
-103 Invalid separator
The parser was expecting a separator and encountered an illegal
character. For example, the semicolon was omitted after a
program message unit.
-104
Data type error
The parser recognized a data element that is not allowed. For
example, numeric or string data was expected, but block data
was encountered.
-105
GET not allowed
A Group Execute Trigger was received within a program
message (see IEEE 488.2, 7.7). Correct the HP-IB controller
program so that the
GET does not occur within a line of HP-IB
program code.
-108
Parameter not allowed
More parameters were received than expected for the header.
For example, the
*ESE common command only accepts one
parameter, so receiving
*ESE 0,1 is not allowed.
-109
Missing parameter
Fewer parameters were received than required for the header.
For example, the
*ESE common command requires one
parameter, so receiving
*ESE is not allowed.
-110
Command header error
An error was detected in the header. This message is used when
the device cannot detect the more specific errors described for
errors -111 through -119.
-111
Header separator error
A character which is not a legal header separator was
encountered while parsing the header.
-112
Program mnemonic too long
The header contains more than twelve characters (see IEEE
488.2, 7.6.1.4.1).
