Description
As error and status messages occur, they are placed into the Error Queue. This query
command is used to read those messages.
The Error Queue is a first-in, first-out (FIFO) register. Each time you read the queue, the
"oldest" message is read and that message is then removed from the queue. The queue will hold
up to ten messages. If the queue becomes full, the "350, Queue Overflow" message will occupy
the last memory location in the register. On power-up, the Error Queue is empty. When the Error
Queue is empty, the "0, No error" message is placed in the Error Queue.
The messages in the queue are preceded by a number. Negative (–) numbers are used for SCPI
defined messages, and positive (+) numbers are used for Keithley defined messages. The
messages are listed in
After this command is sent and the Model 2182 is addressed to talk, the "oldest" message in
the queue is sent to the computer.
