Command Errors
These are error messages in the range -100 to -199. They indicate
that a syntax error has been detected by the parser in a command,
such as incorrect data, incorrect commands, or misspelled or
mistyped commands.
A command error is signaled by the command error bit (bit 5) in the
event status register.
-100 Command error
This indicates that the parser has found a command error but cannot
be more specific.
-101 Invalid character
The command contains an invalid or unrecognized character.
-102 Syntax error
The command or data could not be recognized.
-103 Invalid separator
The parser was expecting a separator (for example, a semicolon (;)
between commands) but did not find one.
-104 Data type error
The parser was expecting one data type, but found another (for
example, was expecting a string, but received numeric data).
-105 GET not allowed
A Group Execute Trigger was received within a program message
(see IEEE 488.2, 7.7)
