-300 to -399 SCPI Specified Device-Specific Errors
Description
A device-specific error indicates that the instrument has detected an error that occurred because some
operations did not properly complete, possibly due to an abnormal hardware or firmware condition. For
example, an attempt by the user to set an out of range value will generate a device specific error. When one of
these errors is generated, the device specific error bit in the event status register is set.
Error Message
-300 Device specific error
-311 Memory error
-312 PUD memory lost
-313 Calibration memory lost
-314 Save/recall memory lost
-315 Configuration memory lost
-320 Storage fault
-321 Out of memory
-330 Self test failed
-340 Calibration failed
-350 Queue overflow
-360 Communication error
-361 Parity error in program message
Description
This event bit (Bit 3) indicates that a device operation
did not properly complete due to some condition, such
as overrange see IEEE 488.2, 11.5.1.1.6.
Indicates some physical fault in the devices memory,
such as a parity error.
Indicates protected user data saved by the *PUD
command has been lost, see IEEE 488.2, 10.27.
Indicates that nonvolatile calibration data used by the
*CAL? command has been lost, see IEEE 488.2, 10.2.
Indicates that the nonvolatile data saved by the *SAV
command has been lost, see IEEE 488.2, 10.33.
Indicates that nonvolatile configuration data saved by
the device has been lost.
Indicates that the firmware detected a fault when
using data storage. This is not an indication of physical
damage or failure of any mass storage element.
An internal operation needed more memory than was
available
Indicates a problem with the device that is not covered
by a specific error message. The device may require
service.
Indicates a problem during calibration of the device
that is not covered by a specific error.
Indicates that there is no room in the queue and an
error occurred but was not recorded. This code is
entered into the queue in lieu of the code that caused
the error.
This is the generic communication error for devices
that cannot detect the more specific errors described
for error -361 through -363.
Parity bit not correct when data received for example,
on a serial port.
