ESG Family Signal Generators

Introduction

If an error condition occurs in the signal generator, it is reported to both the front panel display error queue and the SCPI (remote interface) error queue. These two queues are viewed and managed separately.

NOTE

When there is an unviewed message in the front panel error queue, the ERR

 

annunciator appears on the signal generator’s display.
