Messages and Codes

Error and event codes with negative values are SCPI standard codes. Error and event codes with positive values are unique to the waveform generator series number.

Table 6±5 lists event code definitions. When an error occurs, you can find its error class by checking for its the code range in Tables 6±6 through 6±14. Events in these tables are organized by event class.
