4.12 System Remote Commands (Remote Commands Only)
4.12.11 Input Overload Enable (Remote Command Only)
Input Overload errors are reported using the Input Overload status bit (bit 12 in the
Measurement Integrity Status Register). Input Overloads (for example, ADC
Overload errors) can come and go with great frequency, generating many error
events (for example, for signals just on the verge of overload), and so are not put
into the SCPI error queue by default. Normally the status bit is the only way for
detecting these errors remotely.
Use this command to enable or disable Input Overload reporting to the SCPI queue.
By default, reporting is disabled. Send :SYSTem:ERRor:OVERload ON. to enable,
or :SYSTem:ERRor:OVERload OFF to disable. In either case, Input Overloads
always set the status bit.
NOTE
For versions of firmware before A.10.01, Input Overload was only a Warning and
so was never available in the SCPI queue, although it did set the status bit. For
A.10.01 and later, Input Overload is an error, which can be enabled to the SCPI
queue using this command.
Remote Command
:SYSTem:ERRor:OVERload[:STATe] 0 | 1 | OFF | ON
Example Enable overload errors:
:SYST:ERR:OVER 1
Preset Set to OFF by Restore Misc Defaults (no Overload errors go to SCPI)
State Saved Saved in instrument state
4.12.12 Power Up (Remote Query Only)
Returns a list of errors encountered during the application boot-up, such as:
mismatch FW-FPGA, missing Calibration data, missing hardware, and construction
errors.
Remote Command
:SYSTem:ERRor:PUP?
Notes If no error occurs, the return value is: “No Power Up Errors”
Return Value: <List of error strings> in <IEEE488 Block> format
Return Value Example:
“Power up errors, see details in Windows Event Log”
"Unmatched FPGA Version(s), See details in Windows Event Log”
