Check for Errors
:SYSTem:ERRor?
If a remote control command has an error, no message will be returned unless requested
with ":SYSTem:ERRor?". The response to this command is an error code number and a
brief description in quotes. The description will be one of the messages in the table below,
possibly followed by more information.
It is recommended that this command is sent automatically after any query command
(ending with a '?'). If a command is errored, checking ":SYSTem:ERRor?" will immediatly
report the mistake, while not checking it will result in the mistake being silently ignored.
Examples:
> *REM
> :INITiate
> :SYSTem:ERRor?
-221, "Settings conflict; no application has been selected"
