Error Messages
8.1 Introduction
Error messages may appear on the display when error conditions occur in the
respective functions of the 8000. For example, a current limit error in the TEC
module will be displayed.
In remote operation, the current error list can be read by issuing the "ERR?" query.
When this is done, a string will be returned containing all of the error messages
which are currently in the error message queue.
The errors codes are numerically divided into areas of operation as shown below.
Error Code Range
Area of Operation
E-001 to E-099 Internal Program Errors
E-100 to E-199 Parser Errors
E-200 to E-299 Execution Control Errors
E-300 to E-399 GPIB/RS232 Errors
E-400 to E-499 TEC Control Errors
E-500 to E-599 Laser Control Errors
Table 12 contains all of the error messages which may be generated by the 8000.
Not all of these messages may be displayed. Some refer to GPIB activities only, for
example.
