Error Messages

Error messages may appear on the right display. In remote operation, the current
error list can be read by issuing the ERR? query. When this is done, a string is
returned containing the previously unread error messages (up to ten). When the
error queue is active, bit #7 of the Status Byte is also set to one.
Appendix A of the OMM-6810B Instruction Manual contains an explanation of the
error messages which may be reported by the 6810B on the display or via remote
operation.

Programming Examples

Examples of programming the 6810B via GPIB are shown in the 6810B
Instruction Manual, Chapter 4.
