–226 Lists not same length 
This occurs when SENSe:CORRection:CSET[1]|CSET2:STATe is set to ON and the 
frequency and calibration/offset lists do not correspond in length. 
–230 Data corrupt or stale;Please calibrate Channel B 
When CAL[1|2]:RCAL is set to ON and the sensor currently connected to Channel B 
has not been calibrated, then any command which would normally return a 
measurement result (for example FETC?, READ?, or MEAS?) will generate this error 
message.
–231 Data questionable;CAL ERROR 
Power meter calibration failed. The most likely cause is attempting to calibrate 
without applying a 1 mW power to the power sensor. 
–231 Data questionable;CAL ERROR ChA 
Power meter calibration failed on Channel A. The most likely cause is attempting to 
calibrate without applying a 1 mW power to the power sensor. 
–231 Data questionable;CAL ERROR ChB 
Power meter calibration failed on Channel B. The most likely cause is attempting to 
calibrate without applying a 1 mW power to the power sensor. 
–231 Data questionable;Input Overload 
The power input to Channel A exceeds the power sensor’s maximum range. 
–231 Data questionable;Input Overload ChA 
The power input to Channel A exceeds the power sensor’s maximum range. 
–231 Data questionable;Input Overload ChB 
The power input to Channel B exceeds the power sensor’s maximum range. 
–231 Data questionable;Lower window log error 
This indicates that a difference measurement in the lower window has given a 
negative result when the units of measurement were logarithmic. 
–231 Data questionable;Upper window log error 
This indicates that a difference measurement in the upper window has given a 
negative result when the units of measurement were logarithmic. 
–231 Data questionable;ZERO ERROR 
Power meter zeroing failed. The most likely cause is attempting to zero when some 
power signal is being applied to the power sensor. 
–231 Data questionable;ZERO ERROR ChA 
Power meter zeroing failed on Channel A. The most likely cause is attempting to zero 
when some power signal is being applied to the power sensor. 
–231 Data questionable;ZERO ERROR ChB 
Power meter zeroing failed on Channel B. The most likely cause is attempting to zero 
when some power signal is being applied to the power sensor. 
–232 Invalid format
