Table B-2. Error Messages and Causes

Error Messages and Causes

Code	Message	Cause
-101	Invalid character	Unrecognized character in specified parameter.
- 102	Syntax error	Command is missing a space or comma between
		parameters
- 103	Invalid separator	Command parameter is separated by some
		character other than a comma.
- 104	Data type error	The wrong data type (i.e. number, character,
		string expression) was used when specifying a
		parameter.
- 108	Parameter not allowed	Parameter specified in a command which does
		not require one.
- 109	Missing parameter	No parameter specified in the command in
		which a parameter is required.
- 113	Undefined header	Command header was incorrectly specified.
- 123	Numeric overflow	A parameter specifies a value greater than the
		command allows.
- 128	Numeric data not allowed	A number was specified for a parameter when a
		letter is required.
- 131	Invalid suffix	Parameter suffix incorrectly specified
		(e.g. .5SECOND rather than .5S or .5SEC).
- 138	Suffix not allowed	Parameter suffix is specified when one is not
		allowed.
- 141	Invalid character data	The discrete parameter specified is not allowed
		(e.g. TRIG:SOUR INT - INT is not a choice.)
- 178	Expression data not allowed	A parameter other than the channel list is
		enclosed in parentheses.
- 211	Trigger ignored	Trigger occurred while the Pacer is in the idle
		state, or a trigger occurred from a source other
		than the specified source.
- 222	Data out of range	The parameter value specified is too large or too
		small.
- 224	Illegal parameter value	The numeric value specified is not allowed.
- 240	Hardware error	Hardware error detected during power-on cycle.
		Return multimeter to Agilent for repair.
- 310	System error	If caused by *DMC, then macro memory is full.
- 350	Too many errors	The error queue is full as more than 30 errors
		have occured.
- 410	Query interrupted	Data is not read from the output buffer before
		another command is executed.
- 420	Query unterminated	Command which generates data not able to
		finish executing due to a multimeter
		configuration erorr.
- 430	Query deadlocked	Command execution cannot continue since the
		mainframe’s command input, and data output
		buffers are full. Clearing the instrument restores
		control.
1500	External trigger source	"Event In" signal already allocated to another
	already allocated	instrument such as a Switchbox.
2002	Invalid logical address	A value less than 0 or greater than 255 was
		specified for logical address.
2003	Invalid word address	An odd address was specified for a 16 bit read or
		write. Always use even addresses for 16 bit
		(word) accesses.
2005	No card at logical address	A non-existent logical address was specified with
		the VXI:READ? or VXI:WRITE command.
2101	Failed Device	VXI device failed its self test.
2102	Unable to combine device	Device type can not be combined into an
		instrument such as a scanning voltmeter or a
		switchbox.
2103	Config warning, Device	ID of device does not match list of drivers
	driver not found	available. Warning only.
2105	Config error 5, A24 memory	More A24 memory installed in the mainframe
	overflow	than can be configured into the available A24
		memory space.
2108	Config error 8, Inaccessible	A24 memory device overlaps memory space
	A24 memory	reserved by the mainframe’s operating system.
