ERROR MESSAGES
In addition to the Answer Command, the transceiver can
send the following error messages:
COMMAND USE PRECAUTIONS
1 Do not use the control characters 00 to 1Fh since
they are either ignored or cause a “?” answer.
2 Program execution may be delayed while turning the
Tuning control rapidly.
3 Receive data is not processed if the frequency is
entered from the keypad.

Error
Message
Reason for Error
• Command syntax was incorrect.
• Command was not executed due to
the current status of the transceiver
(even though the command syntax
was correct).
A communication error occurred such
as an overrun or framing error during a
serial data transmission.
Receive data was sent but processing
was not completed.
