Description

The ERR command returns a list of three-digit error codes if errors are present. A code of “0” means that there are no errors present. Executing ERR? clears all GPIB errors.

If a command is a valid legacy command but not accepted by the N9061A application, no error message is generated and the response to ERR? is 0. However, if logging is enabled, the N9061A application command log registers a “Cmd not Supported” error.

If a command is not a valid legacy command, a command error is generated; CMD ERR is displayed on the front panel and the response to ERR? is 112. If logging is enabled then Cmd Error is written to the command error log.

Error Code	Description
112	CMD ERR

Error codes are provided in RLC mode for some X-series errors such as external reference, hardware and alignment errors. The X-series error codes are translated to 8560 series error codes so that an error query returns the legacy instrument error code. To review the error via the front panel, select the System hardkey and then select Show > Errors. The following table shows the X-series error codes and the translated value.
