Settings conflict
This error can be generated in one of the following situations:

You sent a

CONFigure

or

MEASure

command with autorange enabled

and with a fixed resolution. Example:

CONF:VOLT:DC DEF,0.1

You turned math on (

CALC:STAT ON

) and then changed to a math

operation that was not valid with the present measurement function.
For example, dB measurements are not allowed with 2-wire ohms.
The math state is turned off as a result of this condition.

Data out of range
A numeric parameter value is outside the valid range for the command.
Example:

TRIG:COUN -3

Too much data
A character string was received but could not be executed because the
string length was more than 12 characters. This error can be generated
by the

CALibration:STRing

and

DISPlay:TEXT

commands.

Illegal parameter value
A discrete parameter was received which was not a valid choice for
the command. You may have used an invalid parameter choice.
Example:

CALC:FUNC SCALE

(

SCALE

is not a valid choice).

empty. The reading retrieved may be invalid.
