Error messages that may occur when using CBL 2 without the DataMate program are
listed in this section.
In almost all cases, an error result causes the unit to sound the "low tone" three times
and to illuminate the red LED three times. When this happens, send the request for
status message and then observe the "error" parameter of the list returned. The
"error" parameter will be one of the values in the table below.
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 setup 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.
