783Arb waveform name too long

783Arb waveform name too long

The arb name can contain up to 8 characters (used with DATA:COPY command). The first character must be a letter (A-Z), but the remaining characters can be numbers (0-9) or the underscore character (“ _ ”). Blank spaces are not allowed.

784Name of source arb waveform for copy must be VOLATILE

The DATA:COPY command copies the arbitrary waveform downloaded into VOLATILE memory to the specified name. The source for the copy operation is always “VOLATILE” (you cannot copy from any other name).

785Specified arb waveform does not exist

The arb name specified with the FUNC:USER or DATA:DEL command has not been downloaded into memory. Use the DATA:CAT? command to list all waveforms currently downloaded. To download a waveform into memory, use the DATA VOLATILE or DATA:DAC VOLATILE commands.

This error may also be generated if you insert a space instead of a colon before the ALL parameter in the DATA:DEL:ALL command. The colon before the ALL parameter is required – otherwise, the function generator will attempt to delete the arbitrary waveform with the name “ALL”.

786Cannot delete a built-in arb waveform

You cannot delete any of the five built-in arbitrary waveforms. The following names are reserved and cannot be deleted with the

DATA:DEL command: SINC, NEG_RAMP, EXP_RISE, EXP_FALL, and

CARDIAC.

787Cannot delete the currently selected active arb waveform

You cannot delete the arbitrary waveform that is currently being output. Either select a different arbitrary waveform or change to a different output function.

788Cannot copy to VOLATILE arb waveform

The DATA:COPY command copies the arbitrary waveform from volatile memory to the specified name in non-volatile memory. The source for the copy operation is always “VOLATILE” (you cannot copy from any other name) and you cannot copy to VOLATILE.

800Block length must be even

The function generator represents binary data as a 12-bit integers, which is sent as two bytes (DATA:DAC VOLATILE command only). An odd number of bytes is not accepted because the function generator would not know how to interpret the last single byte.

810State has not been stored

The memory location specified in the *RCL command was not used in a previous *SAV command. You cannot recall the instrument state from a memory location that was not previously specified as a storage location.
