Errors
There are two modes for the Errors selection, History and Status.
The list of errors displayed in the Errors screen does not automatically refresh. You must press the
Refresh key or leave the screen and return to it to refresh it.
History brings up a screen displaying the event log in chronological order, with the newest event at the
top. The history queue can hold up to 100 messages (if a message has a repeat count greater than 1 it only
counts once against this number of 100). Note that this count bears no relation to the size of the SCPI
queue. If the queue extends onto a second page, a scroll bar appears to allow scrolling with a mouse.
Time is displayed to the second.
Status brings up a screen summarizing the status conditions currently in effect. Note that the time is
displayed to the second.
