Error Codes
When an error occurs, the Model 3933A displays an error
code in the upper right corner of the liquid crystal dis-
play, and the unit generates a long beep sound (if the
beep sound setting is ON). The Model 3933A then dis-
plays the existing specified parameter value.
Displayed error codes and their meanings are summa-
rized below. The error number at the end of each code
name corresponds to the GPIB error code.
Er GPIBOO
Er PHASE03
l
The Model 3933A received a non-recognizable pro-
gramming or inquiry command over the GPIB.
Examples:
l
You attempted to set a phase value exceeding i360".
l
You attempted to set values exceeding the allowable
range for sweep start, sweep stop, center, or marker
phase.
"ABC 2" Non-recognizable programming command.
"?ABC": Non-recognizable inquiry command.
"123.4": Parameter values without headers.
l
You attempted to set a sweep center or span phase
with a value exceeding the start or stop phase range.
Er AMPT04
l
The Model 3933A received a command that is not rec-
ognized in the existing mode.
0 You attempted to specify an amplitude setting outside
the range specified in Tables 3-l and 3-2.
Example:
Phase setting command is given during sweep operation.
Er OFST05
l
The Model 3933A received a command string that is
beyond the capacity of the GPIB input buffer.
l
You attempted to specify a DC offset value greater
than half the amplitude setting.
Er UNIT01
l
You attempted to specify an incorrect parameter unit.
Example:
You pressed the % or SEC key while setting the phase.
l
You attempted to select an unacceptable unit for other
settings.
Example:
You attempted to specify an amplitude value other than
p-p for a DC waveform type.
