- 131 Invalid suffix Parameter suffix incorrectly specified
(e.g. .5SECO ND rather than .5S or .5SEC).
- 138 Suffix not allowed Parameter suffix is specified when one is not
allowed.
- 141 Invalid character data The discrete parameter specified is not allowed
(e.g. TRIG :SO U R INT - INT is not a choice.)
- 178 Expression data not allowed A parameter other than the channel list is
enclosed in parentheses.
- 211 Trigger ignored Trigger occurred while the Pacer is in the idle
state, or a trigger occurred from a source other
than the specified source.
- 222 D ata out of range The parameter value specified is too large or too
small.
- 224 Illegal parameter value The numeric value specified is not allowed.

buffers are full. Clearing the instrument restores
control.

instrument such as a Switchbox.
2002 Invalid logical address A value less than 0 or greater than 255 was
specified for logical address.
2003 Invalid word address An odd address was specified for a 16 bit read or
write. Always use even addresses for 16 bit
