SYST:ERR?
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,N0 ERROR. If more errors are accumulated than the
queue can hold, the last error in the queue will be -350,T00 MANY ERRORS.
Query Syntax SYSTem:ERRor?
Returned Parameters <NRl>,<SRD>
Examples SYST: ERR? SYSTEM: ERROR?
SYST:LANG
Switches the interface between its SCPI (TMSL) command language and it compatibility language. Note that the earlier
parameter "TMSL" must be used in place of "SCPI". Sending the command causes:
♦
The alternate language to become active and to be stored in nonvolatile memory.
♦
The power supply to reset and clear the storage and error registers.
NOTE After sending the SYST:LANG command, do not send another command or turn the supply off for at least
five seconds
.
If the power supply is shut off, it will resume operation in the last-selected language when power is restored.
