Function 0.00.01 through 0.00.06 View error messages list / Reset error messages
All occurred error messages are stored in an error messages list and can be viewed using Function 0.00.01 VIEW

been reset using Function 0.00.02 RST ERR. Errors that have been reset, but whose cause has not been removed, are
kept in the list but are displayed without bar. This allows identification of previously acknowledged and unacknowledged
errors. See table below.
