Error Messages

When the front-panel

ERROR

annunciator turns on, one or more command

syntax or hardware errors have been detected. A record of up to 20 erros is

stored in the power supply’s error queue. The power supply beeps once each

time an error is generated.

• Errors are retrieved in first-in-first-out (FIFO) order. The first error returned

is the first error that was stored. When you have read all errors from the queue,

the

ERROR

annunciator turns off.

• If more than 20 errors have occurred, the last error stored in the queue (the

most recent error) is replaced with -350, ‘‘

Too many errors

’’. No additional

errors are stored until you remove errors from the queue. If no erros have

occurred when you read the error queue, the supply responds with

+0

, ‘‘

No

error

’’ over the remote interface or ‘‘NO ERRORS’’ from the front panel.

• The error queue is cleared when power has been off or after a

*CLS

(clear

status) command has been executed. The

*RST

(reset command) command

does not

clear the error queue.

• Front-panel operation:

If the

ERROR

annunciator is on, press the

key repeatedly to read the

errors stored in the queue. The error queue is cleared when you read all errors.

• Remote interface operation:

characters
