Error queues
The error queue should be queried after every service request in the controller pro-
gram as the entries describe the cause of an error more precisely than the status regis-
ters. Especially in the test phase of a controller program the error queue should be
queried regularly since faulty commands from the controller to the instrument are
recorded there as well.

FPL1000 analyzer family supports a subset of the GPIB commands used by
other devices. Thus it can emulate other devices in order to use existing remote control
programs.
