localnode.showerrors
This attribute sets whether or not the instrument automatically sends generated errors.
Type
TSP-Link accessible
Affected by
Where saved
Default value
Attribute (RW)
Yes
Power cycle
Not saved
0 (disabled)
Usage
errorMode = localnode.showerrors
localnode.showerrors = errorMode
errorMode
Show error setting:
▪ Show errors: 1
▪ Do not show errors: 0
Details
If this attribute is set to 1, the instrument automatically sends any generated errors stored in the error
queue, and then clears the queue. Errors are processed after executing a command message (just
before issuing a prompt, if prompts are enabled).
If this attribute is set to 0, errors are left in the error queue and must be explicitly read or cleared.
When using this command from a remote node, localnode should be replaced with the node
reference, for example, node[5].showerrors.
Example
localnode.showerrors = 1
Enables sending of generated errors.

makegetter()
This function creates a function to get the value of an attribute.
Type
TSP-Link accessible
Affected by
Where saved
Default value
Function
No
Usage
getter = makegetter(table, "attributeName")
getter
The return value
table
Read-only table where the attribute is located
attributeName
A string representing the name of the attribute
Details
This function is useful for aliasing attributes to improve execution speed. Calling the function created
with makegetter() executes more quickly than accessing the attribute directly.
Creating a getter function is only useful if it is going to be called several times. Otherwise, the
overhead of creating the getter function outweighs the overhead of accessing the attribute directly.
