9.3 Error Messages
The following list contains all error messages for errors occurring in the
instrument. The meaning of negative error codes is defined in SCPI (Standard
Commands for Programmable Instruments), positive error codes mark errors
specific for the instrument.
In the left column the table contains the error text which is entered in the
error/event queue. In the right column there is an explanation regarding the
respective error.
For some errors, a so-called device-dependent info is added to the error
message. It gives further information about the error source (eg. -222, "Data
out of range", frequency too high).
