CBL 2™ Error Messages
Error messages that may occur when using the CBL 2 system without the DataMate
program are listed in the table below. To retrieve an error message, use
Command 7 listed in Appendix B.
In almost all cases, an error result will cause the unit to sound the "low tone" two
or more times and illuminate the red LED two or more times. When this happens,
send the request for status message and then observe the "error" parameter of the
list returned. The "error" parameter is one of the values in the following table.
Error
Number
Error Cause
0
This is normal. No corrective action is needed.
1
Invalid FASTMODE. An attempt to select fast sampling mode was
made. When in FASTMODE, only a single analog channel can be
active.
This error number also displays if the FASTMODE selection is a
value other than 0 or 1.
2
FASTMODE ABORT. During FASTMODE, an attempt to
communicate with the CBL 2 was made while it was waiting for a
trigger. As a result, sampling was aborted.
5
The list being sent contains a number that is too large to be
represented internally. This can only happen when the list being
sent contains an error.
6
The list being sent contains a non-integer number where only
integers are allowed. For example, command numbers must be
integers and a command of 3.5 will produce this error.
8
The list being sent contained too many numbers for proper
conversion. In general, no more than 32 numbers can be sent for
some commands and no more than 44 numbers for other
commands.
9
The command number sent (first number of the list) did not specify
a valid command.
12
The channel selected for setup did not exist. Channel numbers
must be 1-3, 11, 21, 31.
13
The operation selected for the channel being set up is invalid. For
example, sonic channels cannot be setup for a voltage probe.
14
An invalid value was selected for the post processing parameter.
This must be a number from 0 to 2.
16
An invalid equation on/off parameter was found. The equation
on/off parameter must be a 0 or a 1.
17
An invalid Frequency/Period selection parameter was found. This
error usually occurs when a second channel is selected for a
measurement during Frequency/Period measurements.
