-160 Block data error.
This error, as well as errors -161 to -169, is generated when parsing a
block data element. This error message is always used when the
device cannot detect a more specific error.
-161 Invalid block data.
A block data element was expected, but was invalid for some reason
(see IEEE 488.2, 7.7.6.2); for example, an END message was received
before the length was satisfied.
-168 Block data not allowed.
A legal block data element was encountered but was not allowed by
the device at this point in parsing.
-170 Expression error.
This error, as well as errors -171 to -179, is generated when parsing an
expression data element. This error message is always used when the
device cannot detect a more specific error.
-171 Invalid expression.
The expression data element was invalid (see IEEE 488.2, 7.7.7.2); for
example, unmatched parentheses or an illegal character.
-178 Expression data not allowed.
A legal expression data was encountered but was not allowed by the
device at this point in parsing.
-180 Macro error.
This error, as well as errors -181 to -189, is generated when defining a
macro or executing a macro. This error message is always used when
the device cannot detect a more specific error.
-181 Invalid outside macro definition.
Indicate that a macro parameter placeholder ($<number) was
encountered outside of a macro definition.
-183 Invalid inside macro definition.
Indicate that the program message unit sequence, sent with a *DDT
or *DMC command, is syntactically invalid (see IEEE 488.2, 10.7.6.3).
-184 Macro parameter error.
Indicate that the command parameter type or value inside the macro
definition is wrong.
