SYSTem:ERRor?
This query returns the next error number followed by its corresponding error message string
from the remote programming error queue. The queue is a FIFO (first-in, first-out) buffer that
stores errors as they occur. As it is read, each error is removed from the queue. When all
errors have been read, the query returns 0,No Error. If more errors are accumulated than
the queue can hold, the last error in the queue is -350,Too Many Errors.
