Error Conditions
A record of up to 20 command syntax or hardware errors can be stored in the
function generator’s error queue. See Chapter 5 for a complete listing of the
errors.
– Errors are retrieved in first-in-first-out (FIFO) order. The first error returned is
the first error that was stored. Errors are cleared as you read them. The
function generator beeps once each time an error is generated (unless you
have disabled the beeper).
– If more than 20 errors have occurred, the last error stored in the queue (the
most recent error) is replaced with “Queue overflow”. No additional errors are
stored until you remove errors from the queue. If no errors have occurred when
you read the error queue, the function generator responds with “No error”.
– The error queue is cleared by the *CLS (clear status) command or when the
power is cycled. The errors are also cleared when you read the error queue.
The error queue is not cleared by an instrument reset (*RST command).
– Front-Panel Operation: Press and then select the topic entitled “View
the remote command error queue” (topic number 2). Then press the SELECT
softkey to view the errors in the error queue. As shown below, the first error in
the list (i.e., the error at the top of the list) is the first error that was generated.
– Remote Interface Operation:
SYSTem:ERRor? Reads one error from the error queue
Errors have the following format (the error string may contain up to 255
characters).
