When using the binary number format, the only characters allowed are:
0 1

-150, “String data error”
This error is generated when the system parser detects an error in string type
data.
-151, “Invalid string data”
Usually caused by an error in string termination. The IEEE 488.2 standard
defines all quoted strings as having a closing quote. If the closing quote is
missing, usually due to a <NL> character being embedded in the string, this
error will be generated.
-191, “Out of string space”
Generated when the system parser runs out of space for commands and
parameters. It may occur if commands are not terminated correctly.
-192, “Out of token space”
Occurs when the system parser detects more command elements (headers
and parameters) than it can handle. It may also occur if commands are not
terminated correctly.
B.2
Execution Errors
Execution Errors are associated with the interpretation of the converted
commands and parameters received. Incorrect parameter values and numeri-
cal range errors are types of execution errors. Any execution error will cause
the Execution Error bit (bit 4) in the Standard Event Status Byte to be set.
-220, “Parameter error”
This is a general parameter error. If this error occurs the parameter may be
invalid or inappropriate.
-222, “Data out of range”
This error will occur if a parameter is out of a valid range or not in the set of
valid parameters for a given command.
