Execution Errors

127

-430 Query DEADLOCKED

A command was received which generates too much data to fit in the output

buffer and the input buffer is also full. Command execution continues but all

data is lost.

-440 Query UNTERMINATED after indefinite response

The *IDN? command must be the last query command within a command

string.

Example: *IDN?;:SYST:VERS?

501 Isolator UART framing error

502 Isolator UART overrun error

511 RS-232 framing error

512 RS-232 overrun error

513 RS-232 parity error

514 Command allowed only with RS-232

There are three commands which are only allowed with the RS-232 interface:

SYSTem:LOCal, SYSTem:REMote, and SYSTem:RWLock.

521 Input buffer overflow

522 Output buffer overflow

550 Command not allowed in local

You should always execute the SYSTem:REMote command before sending

other commands over the RS-232 interface.
