-499 to -400: Query Errors

The instrument’s output queue control has detected a problem with the message exchange protocol described in IEEE 4888.2, Chapter 6. Errors in this class set the query error bit (bit 2) in the event status register (IEEE 488.2, section 11.5.1). These errors correspond to message exchange protocol errors described in IEEE 488.2, 6.5.

In this case, either an attempt is being made to read data from the output queue when no output is either present or pending, or data in the output queue has been lost.

-440

Query UNTERMINATED after indefinite response

 

A query was received in the same program message in which a query

 

requesting an indefinite response was executed (see IEEE 488.2, 6.3.7.5).

-430

Query DEADLOCKED

 

A condition causing a DEADLOCKED query error occurred (see

 

IEEE 488.2, 6.3.1.7). For example, both the input buffer and the output

 

buffer are full and the device cannot continue.

 

Query DEADLOCKED

 

A SCPI output queue has filled, preventing further SCPI command

 

execution, and there is no more room left in the corresponding SCPI input

 

queue to accept a query to read from the output queue. The system

 

automatically discards output to correct the deadlock.

-420

Query UNTERMINATED

 

A condition causing an UNTERMINATED query error occurred (see

 

IEEE 488.2, 6.3.2.2). For example, the device was addressed to talk and an

 

incomplete program message was received.

-410

Query INTERRUPTED

 

A condition causing an INTERRUPTED query error occurred (see

 

IEEE 488.2, 6.3.2.7). For example, a query was followed by DAB or GET

 

before a response was completely sent.

-400

Query Error

 

This is a generic query error for devices that cannot detect more specific

errors. The code indicates only that a query error as defined in IEE 488.2, 11.5.1.1.7 and 6.3 has occurred.
