8163A/B, 8164A/B & 8166A/B Mainframes Programming Guide 203
Measurement Operations & Settings 4
-303,"Module slot empty or slot / channel invalid"
-301,"Module doesn't support this command (StatCmdUnknown)"
TIP: Query the SCPI error queue using SYST:ERR?
TIP: You can use INPut commands without a slot number if the
81560A/1A/6A/7A module is hosted by Slot 1. An INPut command is
applied to Slot 1 by default.
Command Semantic
All the INPut and OUTPut commands applicable to the 8156A attenuator
are also supported by the 81560A/1A/6A/7A modular attenuator family. In
addition, the 81560A/1A/6A/7A modular attenuator family supports new
commands to access its new features. To support these new features, and
improve the usability of the instrument, the meaning (the semantic) of
some existing commands has changed. This section lists all commands
already available to the 8156A attenuator, notes whether the semantic of
the command has changed, and where applicable, suggests how to handle
the change.

attenuator family.
