SCPI Error Table
Introduction
This section lists the error code/messages returned from the device when an error occurs during the execution of the SCPI command.
Error messages are classified by error number as listed in table below.
Error Number
Error String
Description
0
No error
The queue is completely empty. Every error/event in the queue has been read or the queue was purposely cleared by power-on, *CLS, etc.
-100
Command error
Command error
-101
Invalid character
A syntactic element contains a character which is invalid for that type.
-102
Syntax error
An unrecognized command or data type was encountered.
-103
Invalid separator
The parser was expecting a separator and encountered an illegal character.
-104
Data type error
The parser recognized a data element different than one allowed.
-108
Parameter not allowed
More parameters were received than expected for the header.
-109
Missing parameter
Fewer parameters were received than required for the header.
-110
Command header error
An error was detected in the header.
-120
Numeric data error
Error is generated when parsing a data element which appears to be numeric, including the non-decimal numeric types.
-121
Invalid character in number
An invalid character for the data type being parsed was encountered.
-123
Exponent too large
The magnitude of the exponent was larger than 32000.
-124
Too many digits
The mantissa of a decimal numeric data element contained more than 255 digits excluding leading zeros.
-131
Invalid suffix
The suffix does not follow the syntax or suffix is inappropriate for this device.
-141
Invalid character data
Either the character data element contains an invalid character or the particular element received is not valid for the header.
