Reading errors

When errors occur, the error messages will be placed in the error queue. Use error queue
commands to request error message information. For example, the following commands request
the next complete error information from the error queue and returns the message portion of the
error:
errorcode, message, severity, node = errorqueue.next()
print(message)
The following table lists the commands associated with the error queue.
Error queue command
errorqueue.clear()
errorqueue.count
errorqueue.next()
