TroubleshootingError MessagesError MessagesError Message TypesEvents do not generate more than one type of error. For example, an event that generates a queryerror does not generate a device–specific, execution, or command error.Query Errors (–499 to –400) indicate that the instrument’s output queue control has detected aproblem with the message exchange protocol described in IEEE 488.2, Chapter 6. Errors in this classset the query error bit (bit 2) in the event status register (IEEE 488.2, section 11.5.1). These errorscorrespond to message exchange protocol errors described in IEEE 488.2, 6.5. In this case:• Either an attempt is being made to read data from the output queue when no output is eitherpresent or pending, or• data in the output queue has been lost.Device Specific Errors (–399 to –300, 201 to 703, and 800 to 810) indicate that a device operationdid not properly complete, possibly due to an abnormal hardware or firmware condition. These codesare also used for self–test response errors. Errors in this class set the device–specific error bit (bit 3)in the event status register (IEEE 488.2, section 11.5.1).The string for a positive error is not defined by SCPI. A positive error indicates thatthe instrument detected an error within the GPIB system, within the instrument’s firmware orhardware, during the transfer of block data, or during calibration.Execution Errors (–299 to –200) indicate that an error has been detected by the instrument’sexecution control block. Errors in this class set the execution error bit (bit 4) in the event statusregister (IEEE 488.2, section 11.5.1). In this case:• Either a element following a header was evaluated by the device as outside ofits legal input range or is otherwise inconsistent with the device’s capabilities, or• a valid program message could not be properly executed due to some device condition.Execution errors are reported after rounding and expression evaluation operations are completed.Rounding a numeric data element, for example, is not reported as an execution error.Command Errors (–199 to –100) indicate that the instrument’s parser detected an IEEE 488.2syntax error. Errors in this class set the command error bit (bit 5) in the event status register (IEEE488.2, section 11.5.1). In this case:• Either an IEEE 488.2 syntax error has been detected by the parser (a control–to–device messagewas received that is in violation of the IEEE 488.2 standard. Possible violations include a dataelement that violates device listening formats or whose type is unacceptable to the device.), or• an unrecognized header was received. These include incorrect device–specific headers andincorrect or unimplemented IEEE 488.2 common commands.Error Message FileA complete list of error messages is provided on the CDROM supplied with the instrument. In theerror message file, an explanation is generally included with each error to further clarify its meaning.The error messages are listed numerically. In cases where there are multiple listings for the sameerror number, the messages are in alphabetical order.322 Agilent N5161A/62A/81A/82A/83A MXG Signal Generators User’s Guide
