Error Description

Description/Explanation/Examples

Number

 

 

–121

Invalid character in

An invalid character for the data type being parsed

number

was encountered; for example, an alpha in a deci-

 

 

 

mal numeric or a “0" in octal data.

–123

Exponent too large

The magnitude of the exponent was larger than

 

32000 (see IEEE-488.2, 7.7.2.4.1).

 

 

–124

Too many digits

The mantissa of a decimal numeric data element con-

 

tained more than 255 digits excluding leading zeros

 

 

 

 

(see IEEE-488.2, 7.7.2.4.1).

–128

Numeric data not al-

A legal numeric data element was received, but the

lowed

counter does not accept it in this position for the

 

 

 

header.

–130

Suffix error

This error as well as errors –131 through –139 is

 

generated when parsing a suffix. This particular er-

 

 

 

 

ror message is used when the counter cannot detect

 

 

a more specific error.

–131

Invalid suffix

The suffix does not follow the syntax described in

 

IEEE-488.2, 7.7.3.2, or the suffix is inappropriate for

 

 

 

 

this counter.

–134

Suffix too long

The suffix contained more than 12 characters (see

 

IEEE-488.2, 7.7.3.4).

 

 

–138

Suffix not allowed

A suffix was encountered after a numeric element

 

that does not allow suffixes.

 

 

–140

Character data error

This error as well as errors 141 through –149 is gener-

 

ated when parsing a character data element. This par-

 

 

 

 

ticular error message is used when the counter cannot

 

 

detect a more specific error.

–141

Invalid character

Either the character data element contains an invalid

data

character or the particular element received is not

 

 

 

valid for the header.

–144

Character data too

The character data element contains more than 12

long

characters (see IEEE-488.2, 7.7.1.4).

 

–148

Character data not

A legal character data element was encountered

allowed

where prohibited by the counter.

 

–150

String data error

This error as well as errors –151 through –159 is gen-

 

erated when parsing a string data element. This partic-

 

 

 

 

ular error message is used when the counter cannot

 

 

detect a more specific error.
