TIPS
• “ERR” is returned when there is no relevant command or
when the command cannot be used in the current state of
the monitor.
• If communication has not been established for reasons
such as a bad connection between the computer and
monitor, nothing is returned (not even ERR).
• “ERR” may be returned when a command cannot be received
correctly due to interference from the surrounding environment.
Please ensure that the system or software resends the
command if this occurs.
