Compile Error Codes
A brief explanation is provided of the possible
cause for each error code. Suggestions
for correcting the error are included
where applicable.
1 — Equal sign not found after math
channel number.
2 — Equation exceeds maximum number of
characters allowed (40).
Solution: Simplify equation or break it
up into multiple equations, using multiple
math channels.
3 — Equation exceeds maximum number of
constants allowed (3) OR a constant includes
more than the maximum number of characters
allowed (11).
Solution: Simplify equation or break it up
into multiple equations, using multiple
math channels.
4 — Incorrect channel ID assigned to this
channel (e.g., the equation says C9=, but
you are in channel 10).
5 — Object buffer pointer exceeds
maximum limit.
Solution: Simplify equation or break it up
into multiple equations, using multiple
math channels.
6 — Parenthesis mismatch (i.e., the number
of left and right parentheses are not equal).
12 — Incorrect, duplicated character
(e.g., C9=CC2+2).
13 — Incorrect use of an operator
(e.g., C9=C2+*2).
14 — Operator missing (e.g., C9=C2C2).
Run Time Error Codes
A brief explanation is provided of the possible
cause for each error code; suggestions
for correcting the error are included
where applicable.
1 — Equation tries to divide by zero.
2 — Equation tries to take a square root of a
negative number that is calculated as part of
the equation (i.e., square root of (8-12)).
3 — Equation tries to take a natural log (ln) of
a negative number or of 0.
4 — Result from intermediate channel being
input into this channel is too large.
Solution: Correct and/or scale the equation
for the intermediate channel.
5 — Result is too large to display.
Solution: Modify the Form for the math
channel (see Chapter 5, MVS-STX Display
Menu) and/or scale the result by using the
divide function.
7 — All data registers are used up, insufficient
memory is available for this channel.
Solution: Simplify equation or break it up
into multiple equations, using multiple
math channels.
8 — Equation includes spaces
between characters.
9 — Equation tries to take a square root of a
negative number (e.g, square root of -4).
10 — Equal sign in incorrect place
(e.g., C9=C2+C3=C4).
11 — Equation includes an illegal character,
such as a ‘.’ or a ‘+’, at the end
(e.g., C9=C2+2. is illegal but C9=C2+2.0
or C9=C2+2 are allowable).
