-299 to -200: Execution Errors
An error has been detected by the instrument’s execution control block. Errors in this class set the execution error bit (bit 4) in the event status register (IEEE 488.2, section 11.5.1). In this case:
•Either a <PROGRAM DATA> element following a header was evaluated by the device as outside of its legal input range or is otherwise inconsistent with the device’s capabilities, or
•a valid program message could not be properly executed due to some device condition.
Execution errors are reported after rounding and expression evaluation operations are completed. Rounding a numeric data element, for example, is not reported as an execution error.
Incompatible type | |
| The type or structure of a memory item is inadequate. |
Referenced name already exists | |
| A downloaded program attempted to define an element (a variable, |
| constant, filename, etc.) that had already been defined. |
Referenced name does not exist | |
| A downloaded program attempted to access an undefined element |
| (a variable, constant, filename, etc.). |
Out of memory | |
| A downloaded program required more memory than was available in the |
| instrument. |
Memory use error | |
| A user request has directly or indirectly caused an error related to memory |
| or <data_handles>. This is not the same as “bad” memory. |
Program runtime error | |
| A runtime error was detected in a downloaded program. |
