Using System Configuration and Alignment Keys
• Clear Error Queue(s) - The error history queue retains and
displays all errors once they have been detected, even if they are no
longer detected after a period of time has elapsed. After reviewing
the error queue you will likely want to clear it before making another
measurement. Note that if an error condition exists continuously, the
error will not appear in the queue after the error history queue has
been cleared.
• Verbose - When an error is made in using the instruments
programming commands, the verbose feature displays the command
in which an error has been detected. An error indicator will appear
in the diaplayed command line immediately following the entry that
caused the error. This feature can help you troubleshoot
programming problems.
You can exit the error history queue display to return to a measurement
display by pressing the
ESC or the Return key.
