Data out of range – The parameter exceeds the absolute limits
4.10.5.3 Device-Specific Errors
An error specific to the device occurred. The DDE bit (bit 3) of the Standard Event Status Register is
set.
Code
Description
-315
Configuration memory lost – Device memory has been lost. Check the back-up battery
-330
Self-test failed
-350
Queue overflow – Error codes have been lost due to more than 10 errors being reported
without being read
4.10.5.4 Query Errors
A query error indicates that the output queue control has detected a problem. This could occur if either
an attempt was made to read data from the instrument if none was available, or when data were lost.
Data could be lost when a query causes data to be formatted for the controller to be read, and the
controller sends more commands without reading the data.
Code
Description
-410
Query INTERRUPTED – Data were sent before the entire response of a previous query
was read
-420
Query UNTERMINATED – An attempt was made to read a response before the
complete program message meant to generate that response was sent
-430
Query DEADLOCKED – The input buffer and output queue are full, and the controller
is attempting to send more data. In this case the output queue and input buffers will be
cleared. Parsing will resume after the END message is detected
-440
Query UNTERMINATED after indefinite response – A query was received in the same
program message after a query requiring an indefinite response was formatted.
Essentially this means that the *IDN? common query and the :ARB:DATA? query
should not be followed by more query messages in the same program message
4.10.5.5 System Events
System events have positive valued codes. They are not defined by SCPI, but are specific to the pulse
generator.
Code
Description
401
Power on
402
Operation complete – The *OPC command as been executed
Warnings
The execution of some commands might cause an undesirable instrument state. The commands are executed,
but a warning is issued. Sending the :STATus:PRESet command disables reporting of warnings. The
existence of these conditions causes a bit in the Status Questionable Condition register to be set.
For Model 4033
500 Trigger rate short
