Error Messages
Error and status messages are displayed in the Status Area during system operation. The following table
highlights the most common messages that you may see. An error message may appear after making a
change to system setting and if this happens do not be concerned as the message will likely disappear
after a few seconds. However, if an error message is displayed and does not disappear after a few
seconds then the instrument is telling you something and the message should be addressed.
