OPERATIONAL ERROR Table B-1 provides a listing and description of the operational error

MESSAGESmessages. For the most part, these errors are displayed only on the 373XXA display and are caused by incorrectly operating the 373XXA.

DISK RELATED ERROR Table B-2 provides a listing and description of the disk-related-error

MESSAGESmessages. The numbered errors in this group are also written to the Service Log, since they may indicate system problems.

GPIB RELATED ERROR Table B-3 provides a listing and description of GPIB-related error mes-

MESSAGESsages. These errors are entered in the Service Log and output as part

of the response of OGE/OGL commands.

SERVICE LOG ERROR Table B-4 provides a listing of the error messages that are written to

MESSAGESthe internal system service log. Some of these messages may occur as a result of incorrectly programming the 373XXA. This includes the GPIB errors, 7204–7207, and errors in the 5000 range, RF Power. The RF Power errors may be triggered when setting the 373XXA power to a value greater than its reset level. This feature of the 373XXA lets you take advantage of all available power; however, accuracy cannot be guaranteed when power is unleveled. Refer to Chapter 5, para- graph 5-6 for additional guidance in interpreting these error codes.

The error messages in Table B-4 are numbered and organized as fol- lows:

0000 - 0099 These messages generally indicate status or a pass/fail result of a Pe- ripheral or Self test.

0100 - 3999 These messages primarily indicate a self-test failure with the suspect assembly number being the two high-order digits. For example, error 0111 indicates test 11 for the A1 assembly has failed, similarly, error 0814 is related to the A8 assembly test #14, and error 2138 is related to the A21 assembly test #38.

Since these errors are primarily self-test errors, they do not get dis- played but only get written to the service log. Any exceptions to this
