–100 to –199, Command Errors
Err# Message Verbose/Correction Information
–100 Command error There is a problem with the command. The exact problem cannot be
specifically identified
–101 Invalid character An invalid character was found in part of the command
–102 Syntax error An unrecognized command or data type was found, for example a string was
received for a command that doesn’t accept strings
–103 Invalid separator The command was supposed to contain a separator but we found an illegal
character. For example, the semicolon was omitted after a command string
–104 Data type error A data type differed from what was expected. For example, numeric or string
data was expected, but block data was found
–105 GET not allowed A Group Execute Trigger was received within a program message
–108 Parameter not allowed More parameters were received than were expected for the command. For
example, the *ESE common command only accepts one parameter, so
sending *ESE 0,1 is not allowed
–109 Missing parameter Fewer parameters were received than required for this command
–110 Command header error This is a general error that is generated when a problem is found in a command
header, but no more specific information is available
–111 Header separator
error
An illegal character was found in a command where a separator was expected
–112 Program mnemonic too
long
The command contains a keyword that has more than twelve characters
–113 Undefined header The command meets the SCPI syntax requirements, but is not valid in the
current measurement environment
–114 Header suffix out of
range
The value of a numeric suffix that is attached to a program mnemonic makes
the header invalid. (A suffix is usually units, like Hz or DB)
–115 Unexpected number of
parameters
The number of parameters received does not correspond to the number of
parameters expected.
–120 Numeric data error An error was found in a data element that appears to be numeric. The exact
problem cannot be specifically identified
–121 Invalid character in
number
A character was found that is not valid for the data type. For example, an alpha
in a decimal numeric or a “9” in octal data
–123 Exponent too large The magnitude of an exponent was greater than 32000
–124 Too many digits The mantissa of a decimal-numeric contained more than 255 digits, excluding
leading zeros
