instrument instead. The cause is often a query which is faulty and hence cannot be exe-
cuted.

between -300 and -399 or a positive error number, which denotes the error in greater
detail, is entered into the error queue.
4 Execution Error
This bit is set if a received command is syntactically correct but cannot be performed for
other reasons. An error message with a number between -200 and -300, which denotes
the error in greater detail, is entered into the error queue.
5 Command Error
This bit is set if a command is received, which is undefined or syntactically incorrect. An
error message with a number between -100 and -200, which denotes the error in greater
detail, is entered into the error queue.
