Error Messages
-100 Command error
A comprehensive syntax error has occurred showing that this instrument cannot detect a
more detailed error. This code simply shows that a command error defined in 11.5.1.1.4,
IEEE488.2 has occurred.
60 Continuous switching may damage source attenuator
This error occurs when different source attenuator (power range) settings are present
during measurement on two or more channels. Performing such measurement for a long
time is not recommended because of the possibility of the source attenuator being
damaged. The measurement value is normal. This error occurs only on models with the
extended power output (Option 214, 314, and 414). In firmware 3.60 and later, Auto Power
Range set function may cause this error according to a channel setting. Refer to “Setting
power level with Auto Power Range set function” on page 74.
D
-222 Data out of range
A data element (not violating the standard) outside the range defined by this instrument has
been received. This error occurs when an integer-based command for which the parameter
can be rounded exceeds the range of -65536 to +65536 or when a real-number-based
command for which the parameter can be rounded exceeds the range of -9.9e37 to +9.9e37,
for example.
This error occurs also when a numeric value other than a specified one is entered into a
command in which the “port number” and “CalKit number” are specified as parameters
and hence the parameters are not rounded. Such commands are, for example,
CALC:FSIM:BAL:TOP:BBAL:PPOR, SENS:CORR:COLL:ACQ:OPEN,
SENS:CORR:COLL:ECAL:SOLT3, SENS:CORR:COLL:CKIT:ORD:LOAD, etc.
-104 Data type error
The parser has recognized a data element that must not exist. Block data has been sent
instead of numeric value data or character string data that had been expected, for example.
E
32 ECal module not in appropriate RF path
This error occurs when an ECal command, SENS:CORR:COLL:ECAL:SOLTn or
SENS:CORR:OFFS:COLL:ECAL:xxxx, is executed with the port on the ECal module not
connected correctly to the instrument. When the auto-detect function is turned OFF,
(SENS:CORR:COLL :ECAL:ORI OFF), however, this error does not occur even when the
port on the ECal module is not connected correctly to the instrument .
-200 Execution error
An error associated with execution has been generated for which this instrument cannot
specify the error message. This code shows that an error associated with execution defined
in 11.5.1.1.5, IEEE488.2 has occurred. This error occurs also when a calibration
measurement is aborted.
-123 Exponent too large
The absolute value of the exponent exceeds 32,000 (see 7.7.2.4.1, IEEE488.2).
