4.4 Error messages
Devices following the IEEE 488.2 standard provide an error queue storing errors one
by one. Every query
":SYST:ERR?"
will fetch one error from the error queue.
Repeated use of
":SYST:ERR?"
is necessary until the error queue is empty.
If the queue is empty, the error message
[0, "No error"]
is sent to the PC.
Error messages are organized in groups:
Error number

300 ... 399
