Error Message

Description

These errors are entered in the Service Log and output as part of the response of OGE/OGL commands for GPIB com- mands. The list is subdivided into the type of GPIB error: 7204..., 7205..., 7206..., and 7207.

 

7204 GPIB COMMAND ERROR DESCRIPTIONS

 

 

Faulty program mnemonic syn-

Generated when the program mnemonic found was not one of the currently defined

tax

program mnemonics for the 373XXA.

 

 

Faulty suffix mnemonic syntax

Generated when the suffix mnemonic found was not one of the currently defined suffix

 

mnemonics for the 373XXA.

 

 

Faulty mnemonic syntax

Generated when the mnemonic found was not one of the currently defined program or

 

suffix mnemonics for the 373XXA.

 

 

Missing Program Message

Generated when the required semicolon preceding the next program mnemonic was

Separator

not found.

 

 

Expected NRf data

Generated when a mnemonic is used that requires a trailing NRf numeric data ele-

 

ment. The data element was either missing or the first character of the data element

 

was not one of the acceptable NRf characters.

 

 

NRf mantissa too long

The maximum allowable number of characters in the NRf numeric element mantissa is

 

255.

 

 

Exponent magnitude too large

The maximum allowable exponent magnitude in an NRf element is +/— 32000.

 

 

Faulty NRf syntax

Can be any number of syntactical errors such as more than one decimal point, inclu-

 

sion of a decimal point in the exponent field, an invalid character imbedded in the nu-

 

meric or no exponent value following the ‘E’.

 

 

Expected String Program Data

Generated when a mnemonic is used that requires a trailing string data element. The

 

date element was either missing or no open quote character was found.

 

 

Missing close quote character

Generated when a mnemonic is used that requires a trailing string data element. The

 

open quote character was found, but the close quote character was not.

 

 

Expected Arbitrary Block data

Generated when a mnemonic is used that requires a trailing arbitrary block data ele-

 

ment and the trailing element was not an arbitrary block data element. Or in some

 

cases, the arbitrary block was empty.

 

 

Faulty Arbitrary Block

Generated when a defined length arbitrary block data element is terminated early with

 

an EOI or an indefinite length arbitrary block data element is not properly terminated.

 

 

Missing Program Data Separator

Two data elements of a program mnemonic that requires multiple program data ele-

 

ments, are not properly separated from each other by a comma.
