Error Number Error Description [description/explanation/examples]
–400 Query error

11.5.1.1.7 and 6.3 has occurred.]
–410 Query INTERRUPTED
[Indicates that a condition causing an INTERRUPTED Query error occurred (see

response was completely sent.]
–420 Query UNTERMINATED
[Indicates that a condition causing an UNTERMINATED Query error occurred
(see IEEE 488.2, 6.3.2.2); for example, the device was addressed to talk and an
incomplete program message was received.]
–430 Query DEADLOCKED
[Indicates that a condition causing an DEADLOCKED Query error occurred (see
IEEE 488.2, 6.3.1.7); for example, both input buffer and output buffer are full and
the device cannot continue.]

query requesting an indefinite response was executed (see IEEE 488.2, 6.5.7.5).]
