Chapter 5 Error Messages
Execution Errors
126
-221 Settings conflict
Indicates that a legal program data element was parsed but could not be
executed due to the current device state.
-222 Data out of range
A numeric parameter value is outside the valid range for the command.
Example: TRIG:DEL -3
-223 Too much data
A character string was received but could not be executed because the string
length was more than 40 characters. This error can be generated by the
CALibration:STRing command.
-224 Illegal parameter value
A discrete parameter was received which was not a v alid choice for the
command. You may have used an invalid parameter choice.
Example: DISP:STAT XYZ (XYZ is not a valid choice).
-330 Self-test failed
The power supply’s complete self-test failed from the remote interface (*TST?
command). In addition to this error, more specific self-test errors are also
reported. See also ‘‘Self-Test Errors’’, starting on page 128.
-350 Too many errors
The error queue is full because more than 20 errors have occurred. No
additional errors are stored until you remove errors from the queue. The error
queue is cleared when power has been off, or after a *CLS (clear status)
command has been executed.
-410 Query INTERRUPTED
A command was received which sends data to the output buffer, but the output
buffer contained data from a previous command (the previous data is not
overwritten). The output buffer is cleared when power has been off, or after a
*RST (reset) command has been executed.
-420 Query UNTERMINATED
The power supply was addressed to talk (i.e., to send data over the interface)
but a command has not been received which sends data to the output buffer.
For example, you may have executed an APPLy command (which does not
generate d ata) and t hen attemp ted an ENTER sta tement to r ead data f rom the
remote interface.
