Error Description Remedy
460 Cannot open file The selected file can not be opened. Check the path and file name.
461 Cannot write file The file can not be written. Check if the file is read-only.
462 Cannot read file The file can not be read. Check if the file contents are
compatible with the file type.
463 Filename missing The required operation cannot be
executed because the file name is not
specified.
A file name has to be entered
when creating a new list.
464 Invalid filename exten-
sion
The file extension is not valid for the
required operation.
Check the file extension.
For instance, the file extension
for waveform list files is *.wv. It
is not possible to enter another
file extension when storing a list.
465 File contains invalid
data
The selected file contains data that is
not valid for the file type.
The file extension determines the
data that is valid for this file type. If
the file extension is changed the lists
are no longer recognized and the data
are therefore invalid.
Example: the extension of a wave-
form file (= *.wv) was changed to
*.txt
Check the file extension.
