SCPI Error Messages
−258
Media protected
Indicates that a legal program command or query could not be executed because the
media was protected; for example, the write-protect tab on a disk was present. The
definition of what constitutes protected media is device-specific.
−260
Expression error
Indicates that an expression program data element related error occurred. This error
message should be used when the device cannot detect the more specific errors
described for errors −261 through −269.
−261
Math error in expression
Indicates that a syntactically legal expression program data element could not be
executed due to a math error; for example, a divide-by-zero was attempted. The
definition of math error is device-specific.
−270
Macro error
Indicates that a macro-related execution error occurred. This error massage should
be used when the device cannot detect the more specific errors described for errors −
271 through −279.
−271
Macro syntax error
Indicates that a syntactically legal macro program data sequence, according to IEEE
488.2, 10.7.2, could not be executed due to a syntax error within the macro
definition (see IEEE 488.2, 10.7.6.3.)
−272
Macro execution error
Indicates that a syntactically legal macro program data sequence could not be
executed due to some error in the macro definition (see IEEE 488.2, 10.7.6.3.)
−273
Illegal macro label
Indicates that the macro label defined in the *DMC command was a legal string
syntax but could not be accepted by the device (see IEEE 488.2, 10.7.3 and
10.7.6.2); for example, the label was too long, the same as a common command
header, or contained invalid header syntax.
